ain't nothin' but a hound dog

Life has a tragic way of corrupting even the most innocent of souls. --- this feeling is all we know

“No.  We have horses in the stables back home but none of them were really mine.  My brother has a kitten named Milo here at the castle with him and I get to spoil him which is good” Adeline said with a smile.  “Well I don’t really know what its like outside of Belgium since this is my first time being away from home but Belgium is great.  I love the village that my family lives in.  Are you from the United Sates?”  Adeline wondered if Ace was from anywhere she had heard of before.  “I thought meat was suppose to be good for you?” Adeline smiled.  “I have tried pizza.  I think that’s want was being made for lunch today.  I hope there’s some still left.”

“Oh, why not? Did your parents not like you to ride them? Ah a cat, that is cute. You should get one of your own, if you like to spoil his kitten so much.” He suggested, hoping she could take it into consideration. “Is it? Wow. That’s incredible. I thought royals always traveled. But that’s good and yes. A woody area in the mid-west. It’s private, but magical. You should come, I mean if you want to travel.” He wasn’t sure whether Adeline would like it, though the male was proud of it. “It is, I think? I don’t know, it’s just meat. And really, oh I love pizza. I want to get one with toppin’s. What do you think is the weirdest toppin’ to get? Pineapple or maybe even just plain apples -- Wanna go?” He asked, motioning his way towards the kitchen. “So Adeline, what’s your favorite food from here?”

“No, it’s really big. The lagoon back home was big too, but not like this. Ace, hi. It’s nice to meet you. I’m Coralie, but Cora’s just fine. I was uh- Well, I heard there was an indoor lagoon here. I think she called it a pool?”

“Lagoon? Do you mean like a lake? I never saw a lagoon. It is nice to meet you Coralie, that is a pretty and unique name -- Yes, I think that’s what it’s called. Have you seen it? I can take you, if you want. I hope you have a bathing suit.”

Adeline nodded.  “I like all kinds of animals.  Dogs, cats, horses and wild animals.”‘  She wanted to ask more questions but she decided to let it go for right now.  “Belgium is in Europe.”  Adeline smiled she lead them towards the kitchen.  “Lets go see what is left over from lunch then”

“Did you have any pets at home then?” Ace questioned, wanting to know more about both her and her home state. “In Europe? That sounds exciting. What’s it like there, in Europe and all?” He had little clue, finding it all fascinating simply to know that she lived across the see. “I hope it isn’t any meat. You know, that stuff is horrible for you. OH! Have you tried pizza yet?”

“They hardly feed humans well now and days I can hardly imagine what they feed pups.” Victor carefully set the dog on his feet. “Do you think anyone at the palace would want him? I don’t think we should leave him all alone.”

“What do you mean? They feed people bad food? If no one wants him, I’ll keep him. I have a weird attachment to dogs -- Here.” He paused, reaching down to pat the puppy. “What’s your name, by the way?” Ace asked as he glared up at the stranger.

coraliexmarina:

“How is anyone supposed to find their way around here?”

“That is the first question I asked myself too, but you get used to it. It’s not as big as you might think -- Well it is big, but still. Uh -- Hi. I am Ace. Do you need help finding something?”

[peterspker]

I’m not sure you actually know how hiding works. The whole point is to not be where everyone thinks you are. Trust me, i’m kind of an expert.

Adeline smiled as she squeezed his hand back and lead them towards the gardens.  “I like all of those things too plus animals.”  Adeline frowned.  “How could your family not want you around?”  Adeline couldn’t imagine her family not wanting her around.  “Well I’m from Belgium.  My mother, father and sister are still there an my brother Theo is here at the castle too.”

“Animals? Really?” He questioned, perking up slightly at the new knowledge. “What sort of animals do you like? And -- It is all very complicated. My family is strange.” Partially due to his grandfather, the elder had a way with harming them emotionally. “Belgium? Where is that? In the United States?” He hadn’t left his little village since a few weeks ago, Ace hardly knew of many places outside his small bubble. “Well enough about family and whatnot, want to get something to eat?”

Adeline smiled as she stood up. She pulled Ackley up with her. “Well lets go then. I think you will like the gardens here. Why don’t you want your family here?” Adeline couldn’t imagine being in the castle without Theo.

Ace softly squeezed her hand as he rose to his feet. “I think I will too. I always liked nature, gardens, forests ‘nd all. That’s all I really know of -- My family doesn’t really want me around at the moment. At least, my grandfather doesn’t. I don’t blame him, I wasn’t a good boy.” For the most part. “So tell me, how is your home like?”

“No, I don’t think so. Even if we did, it’s not hard to retrace our steps and find the right way out. There’s really no danger to it.” Celine didn’t want him to worry. “He is, but I’ve heard it’s getting better slowly. I think the guards do a good job. I’ve rarely had a problem here, but I do think I’ll visit home soon to see my family. What about you? Do you think you’ll visit your home while you’re here?” She didn’t know anything about his situation, perhaps he was sent there against his will and enjoyed home. “You never learned to swim? It’s fun! A video game is just a game you can play on a big screen in front of you. Perhaps horseback riding or we can watch a movie in the theater, if you’d like. Both are fairly relaxing.”

“That is true. I am good at retracin’ my steps. My pops always said I had a nose of a dog -- That’s more comfortin’. Sometimes places got guards ‘nd all, but they don’t do much. Is it easy to visit your family? Where are you from?” Ace’s brow lifted as he questioned her family, he knew she must have been royal. “I’m not sure. Just got here ‘nd all. I don’t think my pops wants me to visit anytime soon.” His situation was difficult, considering his grandfather still held a vengeful tick over his grandson. “Nope. Never got the need. That sounds weird, never heard of it before. Is it hard to play? Well -- Would you like to come ‘nd join me? Don’t really know how to do either. I’m sort of -- How do you say it, bad at most stuff?”

Adeline smiled. “That’s good. You look happier when you smile. I like being here a lot. I mean I miss my mother and father and sister but it’s nice here. Just find places that make you happy. For me those places are the gardens and it helps that my older brother is here too. Do you have any family here?”

“I look better? Well -- Ugh. Thank you.” He stuttered, his cheeks darken red. “That is good. This place is different, a lot freer than home, I bet. You like the gardens? Maybe if you have time, you could show it me? I never really saw well kept gardens before. And no, no family around. Don’t think they’d come for a while, which I prefer -- Should we go check out the gardens? If you have time, of course.”

victoroogie:

“Honestly, I won’t doubt it. Seems too friendly to be a stray. Should we get it some food or something?”

“Feed it some of that horrible stuff they give animals these days? That’s probably why the dog ran away. It wants real food.”

“I don’t know about everyone, but I like to think I know a decent amount of people here. I didn’t quite memorize it, I really have only been in here a few times.” Once with Eton when she first arrived, and perhaps one other time that she remembered. “I do miss home. My brother is there with my nephew and I think about them every day. I think a lot of us are here because of things back home, but I would think they’d rather be here safely, right? As much as I miss home, I know that my parents sent me here because they love me,” she smiled. “Almost anything! You can go swimming, riding, play video games and watch these things called televisions. There’s a theater, and a ballroom, and you can go in a car. What do you love to do the most?”

“Oh. So do you think you might get lost? Not that I think you would, but just still -- I have no idea where I am going.” He hardly knew how to find his room, let alone the exit to the maze. “You brother is there? Well I hope he is safe. I am sure he thinks about you daily. But you are right, we are suppose to be safer here. I just hope the guards are as good as everyone says. Do you think you’d go back anytime soon?” He couldn’t picture staying here for years, it seemed far too crazy. He only knew that his visit would be a short while -- until his grandfather forgave him or passed. “Swimmin’? I’m not much of a swimmer. Never learned. But what’s a video game? I don’t really know. I never did any of those things. What do you suggest?”

victoroogie:

“Geez sorry, is he yours?”

“No -- Never saw him before. Do you think he is lost or somethin’? He might have a tag.”

youngestwhite:

“Its nice to meet you too.  You shouldn’t be sorry.  Every one gets upset sometimes and it perfectly fine.  No I have been here for awhile actually.”

“That is true, but I rather always show how happy I am. I rather people see the best in me than anything else -- Oh. Really? How do you like it here? I’m not exactly sure how to take in this whole place. Have any secrets?”
