Considering you had wanted to give me a gift, not once but twice, I don't believe it to be so far-fetched. [ even if he hasn't been given anything but a meat bun, shhh. ]
[ yes. also because he has both eyes and short hair and he's not an elf.
he's also not falin... ]
IT WASN'T AN EXCUSE! The first time, I mentioned wanting to bake and you were actually really encouraging and supportive about it. You said you'd try it even if it wouldn't taste good. It was really nice of you
[ and it made her heart flip.... ]
But then you went and ruined it! This time, it's just to say thanks. That's all! No excuses!
[ an au where he suffered an eye injury and grows his hair out...
nvm, he can't compete with falin. ]
Unlike the fickle words a certain lady said on a whim, my own feelings remain entirely unchanged. I would still savor it, regardless of your skill.
[ wait for it.

Besides, if it came out awful, that may be entertaining in its own right. But, that would be impossible, would it not? After all, it would be created with every inch of your gratitude, correct? "No excuses."
[ UNFORTUNATELY SHE WOULD BE SO WEAK ANYWAY...... also help not the entertaining ]
"Every inch" makes it sound like I'm falling over myself with gratefulness. It's just a thank you! And how have your feelings not changed?! I've been calling you a huge jerk for months now! And I'm not fickle!
I can't tell if you're willfully ignorant or just living in a fantasy world... You helped me after I hurt my ankle and that's all! If you wanted a reward from me, too bad! All you're getting is a thanks.
But that's part of the problem, you know? Or maybe it isn't. I don't know! You can act like such an entitled jerk sometimes. You won't listen when people say the things you're doing are hurtful or disrespectful. But then you say and do nice things too... Like, supportive? Encouraging? It feels like you actually care I don't know!!! I don't get you!
I prefer leaving the usual niceties to the nobles. [ he's the crown prince, but it didn't mean he liked the pretense that came with his position. ] In turn, you can believe I am genuine. Besides, is it so unusual for your fellow soldier to be concerned about you?
Or were you worried I was concerned about you as a woman?
[ she called him a jerk earlier too!! and anyway it's true!!!
anyway she's gritting her teeth and going "YOU..." at her oculars behind the scenes ]
If you were only worried about me as a soldier, you wouldn't care at all about my baking! Or getting a present from me! My ankle is one thing, sure, and maybe my morale matters too, but you don't have an excuse for the rest of it!

The first time, you asked me to make it for you!
That's totally different!!!!

You will find the less you use "courtesy" as an excuse, the easier your life will be, Marcille.
[ maybe he is, maybe he isn't...
is it because he's not a bishounen on a horse. ]

Well, no matter. I will simply have to accept you being in good health as my reward.
Your ankle is better, yes?
