Do Not Get Out of Jail Free

永程

"Zee." Yong Cheng murmured, rolling the syllable over and over on his tongue long after the sound was gone. Zee. It was... short. He suspected that he wasn't getting everything, but then again, Bird was short, too. He pronounced Zeitgeist's name with a slightly accent. It would be immediately noticeable to the queen that his mouth wasn't used to saying the 'zzz' sound in such a way.

He shrugged at Zee, but his eyes revealed the turmoil within them. His tail flicked in the general direction of Sirius' companions, disguised as a casual sweep. On one hand, he wanted to confess everything to his new queen; on the other, he needed to show Sirius he could be trusted. But how? How?

"I'll keep that in consideration."

The creases at his eyes' edges grew a little tighter, but his smile remained.
