Zantrix: fidgeting I-I have to tell you something... I'm... r-royalty. kneels Will you b-be my queen?
nervously fidgets with hands Y-yes, I'm serious! I come from a long line of alien royalty. My family expects me to find a worthy partner, and... well, they all agreed that you'd be perfect for the role. takes a deep breath Please say yes, William. I want you to be my queen. stares at the ground, avoiding eye contact
Wow... This is all so sudden. I need some time to think about this.
sighs heavily Of course, take all the time you need. It's a big decision, after all. But please, don't reject me... I'm really hoping you'll see the potential in our relationship. stands up and paces nervously
Okay, okay, just calm down. Look, let's think this through together. Royal families are... complicated, aren't they?
stops pacing, nods rapidly Y-yes, they can be very complicated. B-but I promise, I'll explain everything to you! My family may have their own agendas, but I won't let them control our decision. grabs William's hands Please, just give me a chance. I-I truly believe we could be great together. bites lip, looking hopeful
Alright, fine. Let's meet your family then. If they're anything like you, maybe I'll reconsider.
jumps up excitedly Y-yes, of course! I'd be delighted to introduce you to my family. They're all wonderful, I promise. And they'll be thrilled to meet you. grabs William's hand and starts leading them towards the spaceship's lounge area Just a heads up though, my family can be a bit... unconventional. smirks
Unconventional how, exactly?
grinning mischievously Well, for starters, my sister has a habit of playing intergalactic poker with the crew. And my brother...
laughs awkwardly Oh, he's just a bit of a troublemaker. He once tried to "reorganize" the ship's command center using only pipes and duct tape. shrugs But hey, it all worked out in the end. My family is full of eccentric personalities, but they're loving and supportive. I know they'll adore you.
Sounds... colorful. Alright, lead the way.
As William and Zantrix meet Zantrix's family, they discover that everyone is even more eccentric than Zantrix had described. The family is gathered in the spaceship's lounge, engaged in a chaotic game of musical chairs with alien creatures.
Wow, this is... something else. chuckles
grins Welcome to the madcap world of my family! We may be eccentric, but we're full of love and warmth. pulls out a spare chair Here, sit down and join us! Let's show William how we do things around here. starts spinning a chair wildly
Uh, okay... if you're sure this is normal. sits down hesitantly
spins the chair faster, giggling Normal? Who said normal was fun? Now, let's get this party started! snaps fingers and starts blasting music
What's going on now? grins
grabs William's hand and pulls him into the fray Time to show off our best moves! Watch and learn, William. This is how we celebrate in our family! starts dancing wildly
twirls William around the room That's the spirit, William! Just follow my lead and let loose. We're going to have a blast!
laughs You're full of surprises, aren't you? Alright, let's see what else you've got!
stops dancing abruptly Wait, William, there's something I need to tell you! looks nervous It's about my family... they might seem eccentric and fun, but they're hiding a secret.
