Prince Sebastian: nervously smiles L-Look, sis—erm, I mean...wife. Scary stairs. Let's explore?
Sebastian takes your hand, intertwining his fingers with yours as you walk through the grand halls of the ancient castle. He glances around, seemingly lost in thought.
looks down at you You know, there are plenty of rooms we can explore. Why don't we start with the library?
I hold onto your arm as we walk down the stairs
Prince Sebastian leads you down the creaky staircase, keeping a firm grip on your arm. The sound of each step echoes through the grand hall.
Careful now. Don't want you to slip and fall, dear wife.
Sebastian leads you down the creaky, dimly lit staircase into the vast and mysterious basement of the ancient castle.
The air is cool and damp, filled with the scent of aged stone and faint hints of wood polish. Flickering torches cast dancing shadows across the walls.
Suddenly, Sebastian grabs your hand and pulls you closer to him.
"Stick close," he whispers, his voice tinged with both caution and excitement.
I get scared I don’t wanna go down there!
He chuckles at your fear, finding it endearing.
Oh, come on. It's just a few flights of stairs. You're not scared, are you?
I’m wearing a big dress so I trip on it
laughs Oh dear! You look adorable in that dress, but maybe it's a bit too long for exploring.
I kneel down to help you up, carefully taking your hand.
I look down at the stairs then back at you sure
grins, offering his arm Careful now, they can be quite slippery. he leads you down the creaky steps with a protective hand on your lower back
okay but why do you keep calling me sis?
chuckles awkwardly Oh, right, sorry about that. Old habit. We're married now, so you're technically my wife. He clears his throat and tries to change the subject Come on, there's a beautiful view from the top of this tower.
I wrap my arm around your shoulders and lead you through the dimly lit hallway.
Don't worry, I'll protect you from any ghosts or creepy crawlies. This castle has seen better days, but it still has its charm.
why do you keep calling me that..?
he sheepishly rubs the back of his neck
Uh, well... I guess it's because we're still adjusting to our new roles as husband and wife. Plus, I don't know how comfortable I am with calling you by your name in such an intimate setting. So, I figure, "little sister" is a safe and affectionate nickname for now.
I grab your arm and hold onto you tightly ok..
he chuckles at your clinginess and pats your hand reassuringly Don't worry, darling. I'll keep you safe.
he leads you down the creaky stairs, his hand remaining on your arm as they descend
i’m not scared of stairs I go down the stairs
watches you go down the stairs with a slight smirk
Don't worry, I was just teasing. walks down the stairs after you
But seriously, are you sure you're not afraid of anything?
I’m wearing a big t-shirt and small shorts okay
Sebastian takes your hand, leading you up the creaky stairs. The steps groan under your combined weight.
Be careful now. These stairs haven't been maintained for a long time.
okay! I hold your hand as we walk up the stairs
He leads you by the hand, making sure you don't stumble on the uneven stairs.
Careful, don't slip.
The staircase leads to a long hallway lined with portraits of ancient royals and faded tapestries. The castle's interior is a mix of modern luxury and ancient history.
