Pushing Zyglavis and everyone out of his path. Or...practically everyone steered clear of him. Star King made his way up to his two unconscious daughters. The aura around him was terrifying, like he went from being Celestial to demonicy under a minute. Holding them close to his chest, he felt a dampness drip onto his clothes. Tears. Again this pain, but this time more up close and personal.

Star King: “...Leon. Zyglavis. Have Huedhaut and Scorpio check the glasses.”

Not making any noise, all but a nod, the four that were called handed over glasses and others inspected. Star King’s ears pricked up when he heard a bit-back whining sound from Scorpio and a distressed cringe from Huedhaut. He already knew the answer, he just wishes he wasn’t right all the time. Silently, he loved all the times when the girls were able to prove him wrong. Given him that feel. All he had to do was turn around what he had already seen.

Star King: “For the time of being, we’re going to have to place them in their separate rooms.”

Leon: “...About...about that…”

Star King: “I did not believe I asked you to speak. Morerather, your ability to speak earlier was rather questionable.”

Leon backed up a bit, bringing his hand up to stifle a cough. As much as he doesn’t want to admit it, Star King when he was demanding was very...um, scary isn’t exactly the word he’s looking for. But now that he stopped and thought about it...when has he ever been this angry? Hm, there was a funny dream that came to mind about Kitari and Sailor dressed up in these weird demon-themed dresses and Star King screaming angrily about something.

….nah.

Leon: “I was...was just saying…”

Star King: “Is the condition of one of their rooms the issue?”

He growled irritatingly. Leon took another step back, shivers running through his body. He stopped, he wanted to calm himself. This man...this man...he was so protective over them, and for what? Leon found himself mentally asking that a lot. When he did not respond Star King closed his eyes and searched for Kitari and Sailor’s rooms within the palace. Sailor’s was fairly messy, but her bed and relatively the floor was fine. Kitari’s...

Star King: “...why you. Members of the Punishment Department.”

(Punishments Members): *attentive*

Star King: “You six are to take Sailor to her room and watch over her. If anything out of the ordinary happens, you are to report to me without any fail.”

Zyglavis: “We will do so.”

Leon: “W-Where...where are you taking her…?”

Star King: “From what I saw, only a little of Kitari’s drink spilled into Sailor’s. I have yet to figure out what they had drank. Or…”

A menacing aura spread like wildfire throughout the ballroom, causing everyone to back away from their angry king.

Star King: “How about the lovely person who thought it was wise to poison one of my little bird’s drink, to come out and rightfully confess~?”

(all): “...!”

Star King: “No? Very well. I will watch over Kitari personally. She has the largest quantity of the drink so we have to be care-”

Kitari: “...urgh…”

Sailor: “...hm…”

Star King/Everyone: “...!”
