Caught by the Tale

Definitely totally...
Seriously, I think Kanata is drooling.
"Start what, neh? I just spoke my mind like you."
He gave another small kiss and watched for a reaction.
The guy was really too cute, even if it was only a few years younger.
"Well, either way we need to put on a show for your father when he decides on the wedding day."
He chuckled and patted Ajax's stomach.
"At least if anything does happen you won't have to worry about something growing in here."
Kana stuck his tongue out just to show he was joking around to try and lighten the mood.

(gonna go cook semi afk)
 
(Okiedokie.)

That joke just had him scowling.
"In case you hadn't notice...
My father will be expecting something to be growing in my belly.
Unless you want me to put on a dress and stuff a pillow into it, that ship has sailed."
Ajax knew that women tend to get pregnant after they wed their husband...
He was surprised that Isabella wasn't already.
"And he tries to one of us in a dress, it's going to be you."
He crossed his arms.
He didn't want to be married!
 
Noticing the scowl Kanata shrugged.
"Why not come to Karel? My father won't force you into anything of the sort."
Though that would make Kana a bit unhappy he'd still get to see Ajax a lot.
"I won't tie you up unless you want me too, I swear."
Hmm...probably should stop with the jokes man.
Digging oneself a hole I believe.
"I don't mind the dress either..."
 
"After what happened to Tritanion...
No, I can't leave this place until I am of age...
Which won't happen for another ten months."
Ajax sighed and covered his face with a pillow.
"As much as I hate the idea, marriage is my only ticket out of here...
That or suicide, but I'd prefer to be alive."
Wow...
Screwed yourself over, Ajax.
 
The older prince sighed but nodded.
"I will not touch you unless you ask.
I am a man of my word." Though it will be tough to hold back after the wedding.
Standing up Kana stretched a bit and took a few steps towards the door.
"If we are to be wed might as well make the best of it for now?
I'm sure your father would let you chose your food and choice of attire if you inquire enough about it."
That way Ajax might not have to end up in a dress at least.
 
"With him thinking I'm a girl named Bessy, he's going to ignore me and put me in a dress..."
Ajax put the pillow back in place and got off the bed as well.
"That or Makari will...
I'll be glad to see the last of him!"
And he's smiling a little bit now.
Yes... Away from his brother... It was like a strange feeling of victory...
Even if it comes with a dress.
 
Kanata chuckled and walked to the door.
Glancing back at Ajax he winked.
"I'll wear the dress for you."
Then he was out the door, heading for the king's chambers were the arrangements were being made.
After a few minutes of talking he was sent to get fitted and actually turned out to be a pretty hot girl.
Who knew the prince had it in him?
 
One, I feel sorry for Kanata...
Mostly because he had/will have to get rid of all the body hair.
Two, Ajax was going to object...
But then he remembered that he said Kanata was to wear the dress.
So he sighed and decided to wander about.
So I'm getting married to another guy who'll be posing as a girl...
How strange when you think about it.
 
By the time Kanata was done being primped and polished he looked like a rather hot chick.
His shoulder length dark blue hair was pulled up and woven into a braided pony tail.
dark red earrings pierced his lobes and high heals were on his feet.
But the dress.
That was a whole other story entirely.
The dress was bright blue and shimmering, falling past his legs just enough so that he wouldn't trip.
The fabric was silk and gems adorned the collar, shining as he walked.
It was odd but eh, why not look good if you have to dress up as a girl?
 
Hm. Not the only one who got primped and polished.
Ajax had been snatched from his wandering and put to this torture called primping.
His captors had dunked him into a tub, scrubbed him til he was raw, then cut his hair before another dunking.
Then they stuffed him into some black fancy boots, a white tunic, and get this-
They made him wear a kilt! A red plaid freaking kilt!
He demanded that he have something to wear underneath.
So they gave him some shorts of sort before fancying up his hair...
When they were done with him, they instructed he go to the medic.
Apparently they were going to force his arm to heal completely. Ouch.
 
Kana got word of that and frowned.
He quickly made his way to the medic and intercepted his groom, scooping him up and carrying away to the banquet hall.
"I'm sorry but no one will be hurting him.
His arm will heal in due time."
Well, now that he had Ajax in his arms...darn, he looked hot!

"I would totally kiss you right now if you didn't most likely intend to punch me in the face."
They just made it all pretty so probably not the best idea.
 
Ajax was thankful for being carried away...
For once.
"Punch you? You just saved me from more primping torture-
Thanking you is what I should be doing...
And I do...Thank you, I mean."

And he's blushing again~ Awww, kawaii!
And this is odd...Usually the groom carries the bride... Maybe Ajax should be in the dress. :P
 
Kanata decided to mix things up a bit...
"Oh...? So can I kiss you as thanks?"
It was worth a shot!
Once they got to the banquet hall Kanata sat Ajax down in a seat near the head of the table and took one beside him with a smile.
"You look so handsome."
Yeah, he totally was gonna have a hard time keeping his hands off.
And technically had already failed since he just carried Ajax.
 
I'm sure he'll be fine.
And yes, Kanata got a scowl for the kiss suggestion.
Sadly they don't get to sit long...
Well, Ajax doesn't.
His father had walked into the hall and was over by them in ten seconds flat.
"Ah, Byron...You've grown so fast...If only Hannah could see you...Where's you sister, Marcie, and her husband Baldwin? Surely they'd want to meet your bride Kaylee."

(Byron = Ajax, Hannah = Tritanion, Marcie = Makari, Baldwin = Isabella, and Kaylee = Kanata. :P)
 
Okay wow.
This dude was on some impressive drugs.
Totally want some.
Kanata hesitated a moment with a confused look to Ajax before he smiled at his father.
"He has definitely grown sir, into a fine young man."

Thankfully the festivities started moments later and music drowned out most of the talking.
Because that was just too weird!
 
Could be worse.
King Suhrandur could be dancing with Makari- oh, I'm sorry, Marcie XD-
And be calling him his wife.
That would be funny, actually...
Funnier yet, that was what the king was doing now.

And he isn't on drugs.
He's just very old and has brain damage.
 
A lot of it it would seem.
Anyways!
The wedding past without a hitch. Surprisingly!
The only time when Kana rebooked his promise was when they said to kiss the bride.
It was a very careful kiss and one Ajax hopefully wouldn't mind too much.
Then they were both dismissed to a 'honeymoon' room that had been set up with baby items and a huge bed.
"Er...they really expect us to get busy..."
I think I hear a lock turning on the door.
Well, crap.
 
Ajax was fine with everything-
A bit put off at the fact he had to kiss Kanata.
But he got over that...
And now they were locked in a room...
But Ajax knew this room very well.
"We're on the second story of the castle on the east side.
Out the window is a tree that can be scaled down if you can make it across to it.
Otherwise we just make a rope with the sheets and things...
Easy to escape from."
 
Kana wasn't really thinking of escaping but whatever Ajax wanted, he'd do.
So escape it was!
The older prince quickly shredded his dress, leaving himself in a pair of trousers and that about it.
He took out the pins in his hair to let it fall back around his shoulders, then walked over to the window.
It was pretty cold outside and snow littered the ground everywhere.
Perfect.
With a few good movements of his hands there was an ice slide leading up from the ground to their window.
"Better?"
 
Ajax had to stop himself from staring.
"Uh...Hang on."
He rummaged through the wardrobe that was in the room and pulled out a cloak and a tunic.
"Put these on. Don't need you frostbitten...
I think there's some boots in here too...Ah, here."
And Kanata was handed the clothes and boots.
"Hurry and we can get out of here."
Heh... Uh...Never mind me.
