"Damn emperor...always wanting us to visit but only talking to Tia." [Y/N] angrily thought to herself. Following the maid with Mikasa right behind her.
↠━━━━ღ◆ღ━━━━↞
The maid led [Y/N] and Mikasa to a fancily decorated carriage. Opening the door for the young maiden to hop in.
The younger twin hasn't yet noticed the older one till the older girl called out. "[Y/N]..." Aristia calls out in worried. "Oh, Tia. You're here. I thought you would have gone ahead." [Y/N] says, taking a seat opposite Aristia. Mikasa sitting right next to her.
Aristia looks down at her lap shyly, "I- I wanted to go with you...it's less scary that way."
"Oh-" was all that [Y/N] could muster up. Her heart felt warm and cuddly. "Curse this cuddly feeling of mine," she thought to herself, her cheeks tint in very light pink. "Well, if you're gonna be scared. Then I guess it can't be helped huh." [Y/N] cheekily adds.
Aristia giggles at the sudden change of mood, before blurting out a question in her mind. "Why do you think the emperor asks us to visit– I mean what do you think we'll be doing there?" she quickly changes, covering up her quite obvious mistake.
"...Who knows? The emperor is a pretty random person."
"[Y/N]!" Aristia reprimands. "You shouldn't say such things!"
Holding up her index finger, shaking it in sync with her head. "No way in hell." [Y/N] says. Earning not only a gasp from Aristia's maid who you could not be bothered to remember her name and a smack from Mikasa.
"Ouchh! What the fu– dge?!" [Y/N] says hurriedly the moment she saw Mikasa holding up her hand, ready to beat her again. "Lady [Y/N], you must not say such profanity." she rebukes.
[Y/N] grumbles in irritation, folding her arms underneath her arm. The wrinkles on her forehead getting more and more by the minute. Aristia sweatdrops at her younger twins' actions before noticing their arrival at the place she refuses to return to.
"We're here..."
The younger girl perks up at the mention of their arrival. "Finally, my legs were about to go numb had I sat any longer. And I-"
"[Y/N]!" a familiar voice came through her head.
"Philotes?" She thought to herself. "It's been a while since he contacted me..." she sadly thinks before connecting herself back to their communication line. "Philotes! It's been a while. How have you been?" the girl asks telepathically.
[Y/N] almost snorted out loud when she heard his next sentence. "I stumbled across Azraelle's plans to kill me for explaining this world without her to you!" the poor god cried. "Oh really? Well then-"
"Lady [Y/N], we have arrived," Mikasa states, patting her shoulders which snap her out of the communication line. The line only works when she's in full focus, but when someone bothers her, the line breaks. [Y/N] nods in acknowledgement, sighing at the thought of meeting the emperor.
"Sorry, Philotes. But I have to go. You'd better come back later so we can talk!" the girl quickly shouts in her mind before cutting the line and hopping off the carriage.
The palace has always given the twins an ominous aura. Which both of them detest for different reasons. "Urgh...this place looks creepy as ever.." [Y/N] shudders in unease. "...Yeah" Aristia replies.
