It was days like these where Fiorello really was at a loss in his life.
Weekends really weren't his thing, to be put simply. He liked days where he was so busy that he had no time for himself, because then he didn't need to wrack his brain trying to come up with something to do. He had his siblings and he had a few dedicated servants he treated familiarly like friends, but he didn't really... socialise very well. When he had spare time, he usually just spent it by himself, thus hoarding up a few varieties of hobbies to help waste his time-- but that didn't mean he liked it all that much. Well, he liked his hobbies, but he didn't like the reaction from some of his older siblings who didn't quite seem to understand why he spent so much time by himself.
At least when it was a weekday, he spent hours being tutored and educated, thus having an excuse for not 'socialising' and 'making friends', as his brothers and sisters often tried to force him into doing. It wasn't his thing and he much preferred being alone--
But on the weekends, he didn't really have an excuse prepared to stop them exasperatedly pestering him about his 'ridiculous' personality. Apparently, being shy and preferring your own company was akin to a crime as far as some of his siblings were concerned.
And, while he could at least block them out by focusing on his pottery or his carpentry (two of his more preferred hobbies), he didn't have a chance of escaping them and their unwanted opinions when he was more or less obligated to sit at the dinner table with them for lunch. It was the last place he wanted to be, really. He could be painting a few plates he'd created, or varnishing the new wooden bookshelf in his room... or heading out into the woods to observe -albeit from afar- the boundary of the other kingdom. The latter was something he'd been doing frequently as of late, getting braver by the day by venturing a little closer, and he wanted to finally take that plunge and head across soon--
When he wasn't reluctantly sat with his overbearing siblings at dinner, anyway.
