Ridley rested his head on his right knuckle as listened to the prisoners' pleas, their voice faltering. He rolled his eyes, which eventually made their way to Eve. He smirked as he eyed her, sensing her own boredom. Ridley grabbed her hand, causing her to look his way. He motioned towards the prisoner and made mouthing movements with his hand, a larger smirk forming on his face. Eve scoffed playfully. He looked back at the prisoner, raising his hand up. "Alright I've heard enough. Make some room gentlemen." He made a shooing movement with his left hand, the guards backing up instantly. The prisoner looked towards them confused, then back at Ridley. The space dragon leaned towards Eve and gave her an order loud enough for them to hear. "Finish them."

In that moment, Eve jumped from where she stood, landing gracefully in front of her new victim. "N-no wait please-" BAM!

Eve stayed silent as she lowered her arm cannon, now stained from the impact. Ridley watched it all with a twisted smile on his face. He sat up straighter on his throne as he ordered, "At ease, men. We'll deal with the mess ourselves." They left with a nod, the doors closing loudly behind them. He flew down to where she stood. "Well done as always... Starlight~." He wrapped his arm around her waist, causing her to blush under her helmet. She sighed, "Y'know, you're very lucky no one's here, Commander." She scratched under his chin with her other hand, earning herself a loud purr from him. He removed her helmet, revealing a face that he could only describe as nothing short of perfect. His hand met her hair, playing with it. "You've been growing it out." "You say that as if you haven't seen it already." She scoffed. He said nothing, smiling warmly.

His eyes widened suddenly, "Oh! I gotta show you something!" Without another word, he grabbed her hand just after she put her helmet on, and led her out of the room!

"Now I know we've only been dating for, as of today, 4 months!" He said, walking backwards, yet still holding her hand. "And I've actually been wanting to do this for a long time now!" They stopped in front of a jail cell, it's occupant long passed out. Eve looked in confusion, wondering what was such a big deal about this particular prisoner. "Ridley I-" "Wait for it." He banged on the wall, causing the prisoner to fall off his bed in panic. "C-Commander?!" Said the prisoner, scuttling to his feet. Eve felt her mouth drop.

Ridley had a large toothy grin...
"Why hello, Hagghini."

"Boss, listen-" Hagghini began, but Ridley glared daggers into him, shutting him up. Eve couldn't believe what she was seeing! "Is... Is that?" "The guy who blew your legs off? Oh yeah." Ridley grinned. He scanned his hand on the board, causing the cell entrance to dissipate. Hagghini just stood there, a mixture of both fear and hope rising within him. Ridley looked towards his lover.

"He's all yours."

With that, Eve paced towards him, his pleas turning into screams, and eventually silence.


"You seemed to like your gift!" Ridley smiled, fixing his tie. Eve laughed from the bathroom, "Ridley, I loved it!" He chuckled softly, mentally congratulating himself. After a few minutes he glanced towards the bathroom. "Hey you almost done? We gotta be there by 8:00." Next thing he knew he felt her wrap her arms around him, sighing contently, "I love you." Ridley turned around and took her in his arms. "I love you too Evie." He sighed. Eve's hands eventually went to his tie, loosening it. "Y'know... we could just, skip dinner tonight~." Ridley blushed brightly, already knowing what she meant. Without a second thought, Eve kissed him, their arms wrapping around each other. Once finished, a large smirk crossed his face as he purred, "How could I say no to you~?"
