Today's story takes place not long after our previous one. Relataxion was the birthplace of a special domino trail. This trail was recently pushed over and the miles of dominoes have begun to fall. How long will they fall? Will something derail the action? Hopefully not. Maybe a new trail will be branched into. Either way Queen and Crews mission was a resounding success the day prior, this next morning both Queen and Rebecca find themselves still wrapped in each other's embrace. Unfortunately for them a new unexpected visitor was right around the corner, fortunately they now have someone to lean on in these more trying times, and I believe they'll both be better for it. But enough exposition lets get on with it!
Queen and Rebecca are still laid in bed beside each other as the rising sun peers through the open balcony window causing Queen to stir awake. She sits up still quite tired from all the work done yesterday. All the effort and emotion made a normal day feel like a century. Even in such a dreary state she still takes a minute to look down at her new cuddle buddy, Rebecca. Whos just drooling on her pillow like a tired little puppy
Queen: "Hm."
Queen thinks for a moment
Queen: "Weird, even when youre just sitting here sleeping and drooling all over the bed. I still find you adorable..."
Rebecca starts waking up
Rebecca: "Hmm? Did you say something?"
Queen flashes red and stiffens up slightly hoping Rebecca didn't hear what she just said
Queen: "Uh... nothing. Just thinking about last night. It was... kind of a quick decision we made huh?"
Rebecca: "I guess? So what?"
Queen: "Guess I'm just a little cautious. I've always been like this. I'm not having second thoughts but, do you realize how many things change by us being a thing?"
Rebecca: "Yeah, yeah I do actually. I just... I don't care. As long as you're happy, why should I care about what other people think?"
Queen is taken aback by this, she always has had to abide by what others believe her to be. The towering evil dictator and while surely she was that partially she has to admit adhering to everyone's imagination has become quite tiring. She never really gets to be herself around anyone anymore
Queen: "You know it's actually crazy how much you've taught me lately. I thought I'd be the mature one in the relationship."
Rebecca: "We can take turns!~"
Queen: "Yeah... Sorry if I'm a little more hesitant than I was last night. It just feels like my world is changing literally overnight. Even for me that's a little overwhelming."
Rebecca: "No, I get it. We've both been oddly close by, living on the same ship for years now. And all of sudden by basically random chance I was put on a mission and we started talking. Now we've found something in each other that we like. It's going to be weird going back to the ship and seeing the folks inside react to all this."
Queen grabs a gentle hold of Rebecca's hand
Queen: "Rebecca, are you as serious now as you were last night? Are we doing this? Because, I want to... but only if you want to."
Rebecca uses her free hand and grabs Queens
Rebecca: "I've never been more serious in my life. And I got kidnapped yesterday."
Queen lets out a legitimate chuckle which surprises Rebecca but it kills a lot of the tension in the room allowing the two to breath a little
Queen: "We're actually doing this. I can't believe it."
