[ She walks past him, pushing her veils past her own head. Carefully laying the material over her head. A practised motion to her, that it comes without looking to lay it neatly across her hair. Because she couldn't be neater. Her hair piled neatly up on her head, her clothes perfectly arranged in the shades of red and blue she favours. Gold that glitters where it hangs in low light, the flat red stones that dimly glint. All of it as a royal should be, if not for the scars that are at her knuckles, not sightly for a Queen but all hers.
Though he's - handsome, in that sort of way and if she were the kind of woman to think very much of it. Bold with it. The sort of bold that would be whispered about in court, she knew. Beautiful men gathered as much attention as beautiful women. The sort that would get him hated for it, just as much. A gaze she assess him with before she continues on to pour them both a drink. Slowly setting a cup for him and for her. ]
And yet, we are made so as to never be strangers to one another.
