So much life in those open eyes

[Stepping into the castle felt much rather like entering freezing waters, the way it seemed to wash over him and make his skin prickle up with goosebumps. He sighs softly to himself, a hand running through his hair and casting Totsuka a look.

The man smiles and Izumo shifts his gaze when he hears the announcement of their arrival, grudgingly stepping forward when prompted. He always hated the idea of arranged marriages, especially to anyone who was possibly much too young for him. From what he managed to gather about the young princess, she was still a fresh adolescent, nowhere in his twenties like he is.

At the same time, age didn’t really matter and he could only hope the princess felt the same way he did about this whole arranged marriage thing.

He lifts his gaze when the king greets them, a practiced and amiable smile appearing on his face as he listens to him. When he’s introduced to the young princess, Izumo’s eyes shifts over to her. He bows his head at her respectfully.]

Hello, Princess Yona.

I care not for your poetry

[It wasn’t difficult adjusting to life as a shinki.

Jafar figured something must have happened in his old life to be quite accustomed to serving under a god, hence why the natural ease, but there were times where he wondered if being so much at ease was a bad thing.

What he did know, however, was that his god seemed somewhat conflicted over him.

Sighing heavily, Jafar allowed himself to show a moment of frustration, eyebrows furrowed as he thinks about his god. The man irritated him in a way, but there is a deep loyalty that he couldn’t quite shake off. The man would allow Jafar to do whatever he pleased, but the shinki felt absolutely restless without having something to do. Even trying to work on Borderlines or shinki spells didn’t satisfy him as much as it should, despite his natural progress in it.

He groans quietly.]

I need something to do.
