Heat crept up on their face, betraying themselves with such an admission. King would never admit it with any real sense of honesty, but the way the sunlight bounced across his fluffy hair relaxed them. The way he'd needle at their insecurities, and bicker and banter with them, soothed King's mind from every other stress to zero in on just him. So when he left (like he had just been trying to do), they were left with all the straying thoughts of their mind.
They stood up from the stool they sat at and walked over to the broad windowpane of glass in the room. Staring out at the city, for a moment, they let their mind wander away from him, but the distractions started to swirl into their vision again and King audibly huffed, focusing back in eyes flickering to the reflection of the powerful man that stood cheekily behind them.
"You enjoyed that too much..."
King looked at him from the reflection in the glass. Her hand reached up and brushed her hair further into her face, hiding her red-faced embarrassed expression. When blushing, King felt like little tiny ants were dancing across her cheeks and everywhere that was red on her pale complexion. She turned to face him, crossing her arms.
"I won't apologize for earlier. You deserved that and you know it. ... But fine, I'll move on from that."
King made it sound like she was doing him a favor by not continuing to be mad at him, but she was the one that begged him to stay in the first place. Such a fickle person she was. Biting her tongue from being mad because of the yawning chasm of her mind that could, and likely would, swallow her whole if he left.
"So. Back to our discussion. I believe I was beginning to tell you about why I'm familiar with... this."
King made a vague hand gesture, a zigzag waving motion, starting to his left, zeroing in on him, and swaying back to the right of him with her hand. The vague waving was just to mean him and his surroundings, nothing too much more complex than that.
"It's because it's similarly related to me too. Or rather... Specifically my bloodline."
