    Summary

    Kabru closes his eyes. (Whether he rolls them once they are closed is nobody’s business.) “If it be your will, my liege."
    The King, with all the grace and poise of a minotaur at a glassblowing festival, says, “But am I allowed?” He practically whines.

    Kabru helps his king, tries not to take over the kingdom, and falls in love.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “Indeed,” Kabru interrupts calmly, gesturing back at Laios’ bowl, to which he dutifully returns. “But a King – a Monarch,” he corrects, already seeing places Laios could misinterpret him, “is more than a person. When a person dies or abdicates, they stop being Monarch, and the next Monarch instantly takes their place. There is still a Monarch, even though the person who was the Monarch is not any longer. Once there is a monarchy, there will be a Monarch until the monarchy is forcefully removed. It is more than you, or any person. The Monarch – in our case, the King – is more than human, because they are more than any human. Does that make sense?”

    Laios chews, swallows, and nods. “Yeah, it’s like a parasite.”

    “What?”

    “It travels between hosts, but it isn’t any of the hosts. It just wears them and discards them, like a hermit crab.”

    Kabru frowns, opens his mouth, closes it, opens it again, and sighs. Heavily. “Eat your rice.”

    Summary

    And now Laios, with Marcille’s arms wrapped around him, can't help but think how much more comforting this is compared to the fake Marcille who offered to bite him. There’s a sense of familiarity and solidarity with Marcille, and it fills him up like a hearty stew. It’s warm and nourishing compared to the flighty, pleasurable delirium from the succubus.

    -

    Laios tells Marcille about his succubus. (Post canon)

    Summary

    You are changed by everything you eat. Some meals you eat not for pleasure, but to prevent anyone else from having to eat it.
    They change you all the same.

    Summary

    Wedding preparations are going off without a hitch until Senshi asks Falin whether her parents are coming.

    Marcille’s hands freeze mid-daisy twist. Chilchuck closes his eyes and waits. Kabru, who had given up on weaving hours ago and was mostly just watching the others make garlands, quietly casts his gaze to Laios.

    (or: Laios, Falin, and Marcille talk about parents.)
