[ instantly. with zero hesitation. ]

I want you to wear a maid's uniform.

[luciferi]

[ WILL HAVE YOU BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS ]

You have to win, first.

[royalist]

[ he thinks about a lot of things. ]

I have full faith in myself.

What will you have me wear if you win?

Which you won't.

[luciferi]

I'll make it my duty to shake your confidence.

Perhaps your cape and crown and nothing else. I quite like the idea of that.

[royalist]

[ ??? ]

You... do?

The cape I understand, but the crown, too? I've always thought it's a little too big for my head.

[luciferi]

It does have its own attractive qualities, even if those may be for me alone.

[royalist]

[ is this some weird king fetish... ]

Would you still like it on someone else's head?

[luciferi]

Such an absurdity never crossed my mind.

[royalist]

Well... all right. If it's for you, I'll make it happen.

But you have to beat me first.

[luciferi]

Come then. I'll not hear empty threats without being at the tip of your blade.

[ HE'S GETTING CHANGED SO FAST. HE CAN'T BE STOPPED. HIS MIND IS CONSUMED BY FEVERISH THOUGHTS OF MAID UNIFORM LOUIS!!!!!!!!!

...

...

he kind of loses the bout though, because. well. it's only a practice match where they're not trying to kill each other, and admittedly, without the power of his archetypes to fall back on, will doesn't have the sheer years of experience that louis has. in terms of raw skill, the archmage is still the superior swordsman.

his royal majesty is just going to have to wear the crown for his consort 💦 ]

[ this is what happens when your husband is a military genius who's been through multiple weapon-only battles. sorry Will, you'll have to try again in the future for maid uniform Louis, but it will be extra sweet when it happens.

for now, Louis gets to enjoy symbols of power on his king while he's not wearing anything else – very much his king. at least the prospect seems to thrill him.

he'll get his hands under that cape and enjoy his prize. ]
