A core memory in the making. She doesn't know it yet, but that's the best part of it all. Instead, the little girl leans into her sister and giggles, happy to let it pass like a secret between friends. They will never be this little again. Instead, the pair will play into their storybook princess dreams. Two little girls who are safe, comfortable in their bubble. Ashen keeps them safe. The bloodline keeps them safe. Though they may not quite understand what it means yet, the crown upon their little heads has just grown heavier. They'll never be this innocent again. Day by day, they will come to realize things about the world. They are princesses now, and their proximity to the top has just increased. For now, they are little girls, having a tea party in the sun. Lovingly, she gazes upon her sister. Gaze shining. Her tail wagging loosely, the smile on her face genuine. It lights up her lavender gaze. They are lovely together, really. The looseness returns to her gaze, and some of the athleticism as well. Maybe just a little more authority, like her father. Oh how she loved him, too. It was hard not to carry a little of his energy on her chest. Selkie wanted him to be proud of her too. Trying her best, really trying, letting herself loom instead of trying to slip through space. Yes. that was right. "We're princesses, we can take up space." She affirms, a triumphant nod in Rainy's direction too. Right. Confidence. All she needed was the little push. Yes, they would lay it on thick. Be yourself, but keep it a secret. Maybe it was foolish, but Selkie would take a moment to engrave that on her heart. It sticks with her. Golden as the sunlight that paints the pair, she takes the bait. Right, what were the princesses in the fairytales supposed to be doing at times like this? "I do believe it's time to pour the tea! I brought cakes!" Selkie brings forth her imaginary box that, until now, she'd forgotten she should probably have. The pup offered a silken smile to go with them. "And we're supposed to talk about princess news when we drink our tea!" The declaration comes, though Selkie isn't quite sure what princess news exactly is. There had to be something exciting about it, right? She hadn't quite decided yet, but it was exciting all the same. |
