"So, you're saying your parents are the royal scientists and t-they've dusted?"

"burned alive."

"Y-yes.

Well.. Dear, are you okay?
Have you been having a fever lately?
Let me see.."

Her paw patted your skull, in which you slapped it away.

"look, i have no means of lying, your highness.
i wouldn't waste my time on it and i'm offended that you think i am."

Her and tilted and those red eyes shone, concern flickering through the light of her pupils.
Flashing only in a split second, a splash of blue on those crimson orbs.

"Dear, you need to eat.
You haven't eaten in a very long time, right?
Lets go, there's food in the kitchen."

Kitchen?
Do royalties eat in the kitchen these days?

Though it was only then, you realized.
The room was small and cozy, with wooden floors and worn furnitures decorating the room. All of which are dusty and unused.

your brother was there, alone.
Sitting silently on the rocking chair at the corner of the room.

"I apologized if my house seemed messy for you children,
I was about to clean my house when I get home today but..

I'll deal with it later.

Now, I'll go get some food for you children, alright?
Sit still.."
