Song version above NOT clean
Yep. Melanie Martinez. I should really do something different. So I plan on making it so you don't need to know or like the song like I usually do with my music oneshots. Kind of a fantasy AU but it takes place in the imagination.
Clean version
Third POV
Past (5 months ago)
Roman was trying to leave the imagination but his people kept coming up with issues for him to solve. As soon as he solved the issue another person would come up. Sometimes the same person in one day. Every time he defeats a dragon witch he would get applause and many I love yous from the crowd. It felt to fake so he would stay at the mindscape for just one day longer.
Present
There is a problem Roman can't solve. About the dragon witches. He just defeated one and was addressing on how to fix the damages and what to do until that village got back on their feet.
Townperson1: We want to know! Why can't you just kill them all?!
People: Yeah!
Townperson2: Are really that lazy?
Roman's heart broke a bit. He stays up countless nights trying to make a beneficial solution that would keep everyone safe,fed,and clothed. He risks his life every time goes out to fight one of those things without his army as to not get them killed.
Roman: I am stilling coming up with a solution to that issue.
Townperson1: You said that last month.
Roman goes to open his mouth but closes so he doesn't lose his patience. (Roman's thoughts are underlined) Patience Roman. They're watching you. Don't falter,don't get mad. Don't cry.
Roman: I cannot resolve that issue at the moment. I can guarantee you that I am trying to find a solution.
Townsperson: This issue has gone on for too long!
More people: YEAH!
They're going to see why you don't mess with royalty.
Roman stands up. His voice is cold and sharp. The people's chanting stops at the first word.
Roman: Listen. You keep me here when I could be with my family. Unless I have killed one those dragon witches then you appreciate me. I solve YOUR problems. Nothing. Critisise me when I can't. Sleepless nights because I have to please you and do my actual job. I am not perfect. BUT I AM DOING MY BEST! So tell me do you have a solution for this problem without throwing off the whole ecosystem?
Silence.
Roman: I didn't think so. I solve the hunger issues. Do I get to go home? No! I deafeat a Dragon Witch and I get hurt. What do I get to do? Rest? Absolutely not! Are you listening yet?
Silence
Roman: I'm taking a nice long break from this place.
Townperson1: You can't do that?
Roman: Oh no? I can't? What are you going to do? Take over?
Townperson: Yea! I bet I could!
Roman: Oh really? What do you do when a person comes to you with a frosted plant? Tell me,how do you settle a dispute between two nobles? And lastly what would you do if a dragon witch attacked? How would handle the village or town that got attacked while injured? Can you stay up all night for three days in a row,maybe more and deal with people who aren't happy with your work? Can you go without seeing your family in person for weeks on end because your people need you? And.Can.You.Deal,With.My.Brother?
Townperson1: Yea...?
Roman: Fine! Go ahead and do it! I got ten hours of sleep this month I really hope can go that long! Remy,Emile make sure the kingdom isn't shambles.
Roman doesn't wait for an answer. He walks out of the gates into the mindscape to see his family.
The shocked people learned a lesson that day:
Don't mess with royalty.
Eek! This turned out worse than expected. Oh well.
You know the drill.
