Heine let out a breath as he witnessed yet another glorious reunion of father and sons.

"faaaather!!" shouted licht as he struggled under his father's tight grip, holding him and his three brothers together tighter than sardines.

"my boys! I missed you so much!!"  exclaimed the king just as loud as his youngest, clutching them tighter in his arms.

"w-we missed you as well, father but if you would so kindly let us go for we-" stated bruno, having trouble inhaling oxygen at the close proximity he and his brothers were put in, their struggling and unnecessary movements not helping the slightest bit.

"we can't breath!" shouted licht in a volume that was far from appropriate for a prince, interrupting his brother's little speech.

This particular statement seemed to catch the attention of the king among the other shouts the princes previously choked out.

He let his poor sons go, who immidiately tried to regain their breathing once again, as he let out a sheepish smile "sorry, but it was just so lonely there for a year without you boys" he stated as he gracefully took a seat on his golden rimmed throne.

"you have been gone for longer periods of time, however" said bruno as he straightened his clothing and adjusted his glasses, having slipped from the previous commotion his father caused.

"true, but it had such a dark mood there that I could not help but miss my sons" he explained, hugging himself as he reminisced the time that he had needed to always wear that 'king' face which he could swear made him look constipated like how his eldest son loo-

"I... see"

"so" he clutched his hands together, long fingers intertwining, placing them on the table as he leaned forward ever so slightly "how have your studies been?" asked the king as he raised one, perfectly shaped brow.

"great! on my last test, I got a 20!" cheered leonhard as he held out his hands but hesitated as he realized, he only had 10 fingers.

How was he going to show his test score when he lacked fingers!?

Doom befell upon him as he tried to solve the internal dilemma he imposed upon himself, muttering incoherent words as he did so.

"wait, 1, 2, 4... eh? I only have... uh.... 10 fingers! my score is 20! now how will father know my grade!? oh no! erm, um maybe I should have just gotten a 10...-" he struggled to find a solution. The other occupants payed no mind to the troubled blonde as this was a particularly normal occurence.

"we have been improving father" answered bruno.

The king smiled "glad to hear" he then looked at heine "royal tutor please pass to me written reports of their scores and performances"

"of course, your majesty" heine bowed at an exact 90 degrees as he placed a slim arm over his stomach.

"wonderful, now, if you will excuse me paperwork spares no one" stated the king as he gave them a smile.

Heine was about to straighten up, getting ready to leave along with the princes, when his senses suddenly spiked, freezing him halfway into his action. His eyes widened as he acted on instinct.

In one swift movement, he leapt towards the king, knocking him down from his throne. Time seemed to slow down as they were free falling towards the solid floor, viktor's eyes widened in alarm.

"hei-!"

A sort of fire engulfed the table. His elbow grazed the substance as he tried his best to get as far away from it as possible.
