Edrear's Favorite

Lady Moon-Chan

AN: Just a drabble about a could-be couple in the Bizenghast series. I don't own anything except the plot line, so please don't sue. And review or I'll have to beg, and that's not pretty.

Start drabble

They sat together one day on the steps leading down to her garden. He needed human company(or as near to it as one could get in the Sunken Mausoleum) and she was the only truly sane worker in the entire mausoleum.

"Mr. Edrear?"

"Hmmm?"

"What's your favorite type of flower?"

He'd never thought about it before. Maybe he liked roses best- vivid red blooms rivaled only by her extremely red hair. Or maybe he favored lilies. Soft and pale like her skin. Maybe he preferred bluebells. The pale, perfect blue flowers which seemed washed out compared to the rich cerulean of her eyes. He smiled slightly, deciding.

"Erzebet." he stated. "My favorite type of flower is Erzebet."

She looked at him like he'd grown another head. "Sir, that's the same thing you said when I asked what your favorite color was."

AN:142 words excluding author's notes. Not too shabby for my first drabble, huh? Anyway, I have no excuse. None whatsoever. Review please.
