The Roof, Wednesday Afternoon

[trigons_child]

With the reserve meeting canceled, after her morning class Raven retreated to the roof to meditate. She was still on edge after what had happened last night. She'd kept enough control to not turn on her friends, but her demon side had been far too easily provoked by Karla's life being in danger.

And the lust. Awkward didn't begin to describe it. Meditation was desperately called for.

She sat cross-legged near the garden, eyes closed as she sank into a light trance. She was still aware enough of her surroundings that she'd hear if someone else came up on the roof. The sun was bright and it was almost 100°F out, but she was able to heal any damage the sun did to her skin immediately. Who needed sunscreen?

She was also wondering how she was going to explain all of this to Anakin tomorrow without mentioning the word "orgy."

He perked up a bit at the mention of the Court. "She's royalty? I never would have guessed. Ranks and titles, and off to school at a place like this. "

James had never seen young Carline in a snit, else it would be believable.

"You're welcome," he said, brushing off the platitude.

Raven would have hardly agreed that her comment was trite and meaningless.

"She is a Queen," she said simply. "Though not of this world."

"And I a Squire, also not of this world, though there is not a chance of royal succession in my future."

The fates would beg to differ.

"If she is in need of a squire, should I be available and have it not conflict with my own court vows, I would help," he said, simply.

Her comment was not trite or meaningless; James did not often accept compliments well.

"I do not think she has squires in her world," Raven said thoughtfully. "The structure is not entirely the same as other realms with royalty."

"Should she need one, I think I can find one on short notice," he said with a wink."How is her world structured?"

"I do not know much about it, though I have visited there," Raven said. "There are territories, and each is ruled by a Queen. Karla is one such Queen."

"What's it like?" he asked, cupping his elbow and his chin with his hands.
