Third Person P.O.V
~In Lovely Princess, The Day of Athanasia and Ambrosia's Debutante~

"My daughter, you say?" Claude said as he stared down while the others murmured at Roger Alpheus and Ijekiel Alpheus along with a girl with brown hair and jeweled eyes. Jennette glanced up at Claude and noticed his cold stare glaring before looking down and repeating that for a bit. "... Interesting. I'll hear the details in the Audience Room." Claude said as he stood up leaving the room. "Stand up straighter. No matter what they say, today is your day, Princess Jennette." Roger told her as she did as she was told glancing down. 'Princess?...' Jennette thought confused on why he called her that. "You hand, m'lady." Ijekiel said holding out his hand to her with a smile. Jennette grabbed his hand as Ambrosia and Athanasia stared from afar.

"A new princess. This may be interesting. Look at how pale she is. Stop tormenting the poor thing! But it doesn't seem like she'll have any fun. The Emperor didn't even escort Princess Athanasia and Ambrosia. He only gave Princess Ambrosia a pat on the head and a nod. And this is supposed to be their debutante..." The crowd said as Ambrosia hugged her sister as she glared at the crowd. "C'mon Athy, let's go somewhere else. Don't listen to a word they say." Rosia said as she led her older sister away from the crowd. Jennette's heart went out to her sisters from another mother who was left there to stand. But there wasn't anything she could do for them. Jennette walked the red carpet to the place that was rightfully hers.

"And turn, now finish!" Ms. Pompidou said as Athy and Rosia were dancing before they finished with a curtsey. "Really. There is not a single flaw in either of your dancing, princesses. You both are a textbook example. How is it possible to be this light and graceful!" Ms. Pompidou praised the twin. 'That's because we have fairy blood running through our veins. You know that thing called genetics?' Athy thought earning a snicker from Rosia who glanced at the lady. "I guess the fact that your mother was a dancer helps in times like this, princesses." She told them remembering Diana as Rosia snorted silently. "... We just did as you taught us, ma'am." Rosia responded with a stiff sweet smile.

'Again? The teachers always mention the fact that we have commoner blood like it's our flaw. Must you always speak of our mother every time?' Rosia thought starting to get annoyed with the teachers. 'Honestly. It's like they have nothing else to say rather than to bring up our mother's background.' Athy replied rolling her eyes internally. "Daddy!" Rosia shouted running to Claude. "Papa!" Athy shouted following her sister. She hugged his leg after Rosia jumped into his arms kissing his cheek. "We missed you today!" Rosia and Athy said together as he held Rosia so she wouldn't fall and rub Athy's head. "I told you two not to run." Claude replied as Athy and Rosia chuckled in response. "Ehe." They replied with a smile as looked at him with a smile.

"So I really like Ethics class nowadays." Athy said as she held her fork. "Yeah! Dance classes are my favorite! Everytime we dance, the dance teacher always mentions..." Rosia said before Athy held her shoulder causing her to turn to her. She secretly pointed at Claude as she saw him staring blankly. 'U was going to mention, Mom.' Athy said as Rosia blinked before she pouted upon realization. 'I almost ruined the mood by mentioning that. Thanks, Athy.' Rosia said with a smile before correcting herself. "That we're like Fairies!" Rosia said as Athy nodded smiling. "Ignore her. Madame Pompidou is known for saying nonsense." He said as Athy's eyebrow twitched in slight annoyance. 'What? You're saying its nonsense that we're like fairies? That would be considered a compliment to any body else.' Athy thought as Rosia shook her head.

"It seems your birthday is coming up." Claude said to the two of them as Rosia and Athy froze. 'Our birthday. And our mother's death. On our seventh birthday, Claude asked us for the first time.' Athy thought as it changed to a memory. "Is there something either of you want?" Claude asked as Athy sat besides him and Rosia sat on his lap. 'What the-?!' Athy thought surprised as she turned to Rosia who had the same expression but less obvious since he was staring directly at her. 'This is surprising. How much you want to bet that this was all Felix's doing?' Athy thought as Rosia turned to her. 'Hmm. But it could have been from his own free will. He might have had a change of heart.' Rosia said as Athy gave her a blank look. 'You do know Papa doesn't like showing his emotions right. So he had to have had someone to convince him. And who else besides his childhood friend and guard, Felix.' Athy said as Rosia pouted. 'Good point.' She replied before turning back to Claude.
