Random Encounter: An Interaction

Queen Phantom: So... your King still lives?

Nice! Tia: *nods, smiling* Operation Nero has been in effect for 4 years now!

Queen Phantom: *Is in disgusted shock* So... the other kingdoms...

Nice! Tia: *Chuckles lightly* What other kingdoms?

Queen Phantom: *She looks down at her amulet, a sad look on her face. She mumbles a few words to herself* No wonder he made me-...

Nice! Tia: So what about your Theodore?! What’s he like?

Queen Phantom: *She chuckles coldly, her eyes going dark* A dead man.

Nice! Tia: Oh... I’m so sor-

Queen Phantom: *She glares at her doppelganger, cutting her off* A dead man, but a better man then yours ever will be...

Nice! Tia: *she gives a small, playful pout* Well that’s not very nice. Besides, our Kings are the same! Mine is just the side he never want-

Queen Phantom: *She stands abruptly, interrupting her doppelganger as she practically screamed in her face, fury burning in her eyes* MINE IS NOTHING LIKE YOURS! HE WILL NEVER BE ANYTHING LIKE YOURS! AT LEAST MINE DIDN’T WANT TO WATCH THE WORLD BURN!

Nice! Tia: *She’s backed up against a wall, her right hand slightly covering face. She seemed genuinely scared for a moment*

Queen Phantom: *She stares at her for a moment, before sighing. Fixing her dress* Do you want to know the main difference between your Drye and mine? *She glares at her for another moment* My King died a hero...a sick hero, but a hero nonetheless. He died, because he knew he had to, for the world to unite as one. Yours lived to become the villain. He lived to watch the world burn. He’s no better then his version of his father.

Nice! Tia: *She stayed eerily silent throughout the Queen’s whole speech, She could only give a simple snort when the Queen had finished. The sweetness from her voice had completely vanished* Do you honestly think I’m happy?

Queen Phantom: *She raises an eyebrow, crossing her arms*

Nice! Tia: *She stands, staring at her original, with the same stone-cold glare* I had to watch all my old friends burn. I had to watch my old lover burn. I had to watch the entire world turn to ash, while the King just simply stood back, and laughed. YOU at least got to stop it. I couldn’t. *She looks down at her own amulet, gripping it hard* You get to love him for who he was. Whatever little love I had for him... left long ago.

Queen Phantom: *A suspicious look overtakes her* Then why not kill him when he’s asleep? You have nothing holding you back anymore

Nice! Tia: *she gives a dried out, rusted laugh, like she hadn’t laughed genuinely in a long time* Didn’t you hear me? All the other nations are dead. I couldn’t rebuild the world, it’s too late for that. Basically everything is under his rule by this point, and the Rebellion is dying a slow, painful death. Anything outside the King’s rule or the Rebellion’s hold is just Wasteland. No man’s land. Plus, everyone in the Kingdom brainwashed by his “love” would just kill me for murdering their “precious” king. Besides... *she grips her amulet tighter, starting to draw blood from her hand* Something replaced the love that left a long time ago. Something that stops me from killing him each night. Something much worse. *She looks at her original again, tears in her eyes* Obsession.

Queen Phantom: *Sympathy & empathy overtook her cold expression. She could easily still remember how borderline obsessed she was with her own king. How she was willing to do anything to protect him, and keep him from leaving or forgetting about her. She looks down at her feet, as if lost in thought and memory*

Nice! Tia: *She smiles halfheartedly, wiping away the tears that had started to fall* So now you see my plight. I literally can’t kill him, and I don’t think I’ll ever have the courage to take my own life. So I have to just have to forever act the part as his “Loyal Subject.” You want to know the worst part?

Queen Phantom: *She chuckles sadly, already knowing what she was gonna say* You’re slowly finding yourself turning more and more into him, right?

Nice! Tia: *She smirked* I guess you know from my experience~

Queen Phantom: *Her smile falls as she thinks to herself for a moment* Why must all versions of me be destined for nothing but toxic love, and insanity?

Nice! Tia: *she giggles, her overly saccharine voice & aura back* Because we attract what we are, my darling~

To this very day, I regret not pulling the trigger. I will forever regret the day that I spared his life. … And yet, each time we interact, I cannot help but fall in love with him again & again.

So I'l just keep on smiling, like I’m alright. So I’ll just keep on obsessing over loving you, like nothing’s wrong in the world.

And So... I’ll stay your most Loyalest Subject~

Until we burn in Hell together, for our crimes against humanity

I wanna question why I’ve seen no one else has drawn this scene, from the story “His Love, Their Loyalty” Like out of everything not to draw people XD

Nah, but honestly, this was really fun to draw! I really enjoy this “nice” version of the King, and the whole “Nice!High Order” in general.

I really hope we get more content of the Nice AU soon~

Evil Drye AU + Nice!King Drye AU Belong To; @dryeguy

(Not Prudence XD) So,,,why not just go join those who aren’t..you know...Crazy?

*Tia’s eternal, warm smile on her face widens slightly* 

Crazy? My dear, if trying to spread love & joy across the globe is considered crazy, then I’d rather be nowhere else! 

*She giggles, more of her sickeningly sweet aura coming off of her. Through the giggles, you can hear a sharp, harsh whisper* Because if I try to leave, especially now, he will not only hunt me down, he’ll kill everyone else I try to go to. 

*She quickly grabbed a piece of candy by a nearby table and popped it in her mouth, cheerfully offering you a piece as well*

"Am I the only one waiting for the SNAP in our happy little kingdom? The tension is driving me mad with boredom." Dontei asks with a toothy grin, bottle of old rum in hand.

*Nice!Tia looks around for a moment, before leaning in with a wicked smirk, whispering* In my honest opinion, our lovable little Kingdom had gone off the rails a long time ago. Not saying it’s a bad thing, though~Though if I’m to guess who truly breaks first….

My bets are on our beloved King~ or myself

[theoldandinactive]

Loyal Subject: Name a way to be nice to people.

King Drye: Don’t kill them?

Loyal Subject: Setting the bar really low, but I’ll allow it.

[theoldandinactive]

@shadowwalkerofmadness Ok who are you lady? Are you all just kidnapping your counterparts? Do i have to do a rescue?

Now now now, my dear. Who said anything about kidnapping? You could tell from that little outburst alone, the Queen was very tired & stressed. 

So I just decided to show her a little care and… nudge her into a different room, to take a well-deserved nap is all! No one should overwork themselves to the bone after all!

*A faint banging & string of curse words can be heard in the background. It seems the original Tia has been locked & barricaded into a closet* 

[theoldandinactive]

For Nice!Tia How did you first react to the lovebombing I mean niceness?

Tia: *She has a warm smile on her face while thinking to herself for a moment* I won’t lie to you, as that would be quite mean. I was actually with the Resistance at one point. I don’t know why, but for some reason, I just didn’t want to accept the King’s spreading of joy and kindness. 

*She looks at you, an even wider and sweeter smile on her face* But after becoming his Loyal Subject, I realized I was just deprived of love and joy for so long! I wanted to join in on the spreading of love in the world! *She giggles giddily*
