In the one of the sitting rooms in the palace Anna relaxes with Kristoff, on the table sits a plate of chocolate Anna takes one from the plate and turns to Kristoff.
"These are my favorite. Say ah?" Anna giggles as she pops the chocolate in the man's open mouth and he makes a noise in appreciation. "Good huh?" Kristoff nods. "Yeah I find they-" Anna jumps as she hears a door slam and her sister's distant voice yelling with someone. Kristoff pokes his head up over the back of the couch to look down the hall.
"Trouble in paradise?" He looks at Anna wincing slightly as another yell reaches his ears, Anna grimaces at Kristoff then hops up over the couch. "Wait where are you going?"
"I'm going to see what's wrong with my sister." Anna proclaims as if she's embarking on a grand journey, Kristoff sighs before slipping off the couch and following her. As they grow near they begin to make out the voices, one being the Snow queen's and the other that of the Scottish Princess Merida who has been visiting Arendelle on official business. Peeking around the corner Anna could clearly see Elsa arguing with Merida who's massive red curls had nearly turned white from the amount of snow frozen to them.
"Its not the same!" Her sister yelled indignantly throwing her arms up, Merida quickly whirled on Elsa taking a step forward.
"How's it not the same?! Are ya bein' serious wit me righ' now?!" Elsa takes a step back from the shorter princess bringing her hands up to her collar and clasping them there.
"Wait-are you... Actually mad-" She jumps as Merida growls cutting her off.
"Yes I'm mad, wha' kinda question is tha'?!" Elsa shrugs covering her mouth to keep from laughing. "Oh go ahea' and laugh, my hair's a giant snowball now thanks ta you!" Merida accusingly points at the queen who simply smiles and waves her hand causing the snow stuck in Scotts curls to crystalize and vanish into dust. The red head slowly lowers her hand but the hard look she gives the queen remains.
"Better?" Elsa smiles at the scowling princess.
"No! Jus' cause ya can wave yer hands 'round and make the snow sparkle and fly 'round me like pretty fairy dust, don't mean I forgive ye for wha' ye did!" The Scott waves her arms theatrically in an attempt to imitate the queen's powers, she pauses at the sight of the smug smile on Elsa's face. "What?"
"So my magic is like pretty fairy dust?" Kristoff and Anna's eyes widen at Elsa's slightly suggestive tone as she spoke, the sudden flush on Merida's face only increased their suspicions. The two looked at each other in confusion as Merida once again fumed at the snow queen.
"Ye wicked enchantress! Yer jus' doin' tha' so I forget what ye did, but I won't fall fer ye-" As Merida ranted and raved at the queen, Anna began to whisper to Kristoff.
"What exactly are they doing? Anna whispers to Kristoff.
"I think Elsa is flirting with Merida..." Anna scoffs at him and waves her hand dismissively.
"Please I don't think Elsa even knows how to-" she stops when Elsa cuts off Merida's ranting.
"So I'm an enchantress? That one is new... Do I 'enchant' you princess?" Merida openly gaped at Elsa's batting eyelashes, meanwhile Anna huffed at Kristoff's satisfied smirk.
"Well if that's not flirting..." Kristoff cuts himself off as he notices Anna's sulking expression. "Hey, you okay?"
"I don't know Kristoff I guess I just... Why didn't she feel comfortable talking about 'this' with me? I mean I talk to her about this kind of thing all the time." Anna groans waving her hands around as she talked.
"Well this is kinda unconventional maybe she thought you would get weirded out?" Kristoff offers shrugging.
"About Elsa? Please I handled learning about her powers better then anyone, and thats even more unconventional then this." Kristoff scratches the back of his neck trying to find an answer that would satisfy Anna.
"Well maybe she's just learning about this whole thing so its just too new to discuss right now."
"Learning about what?" Kristoff jumps at the sudden voice behind him as Anna blindly reaches across him to hush the new arrival.
"Quiet Elsa we're discussing your possible lesbianism here... ELSA!" Anna jumps at the sudden appearance of Elsa and Merida having discovered their hiding place, the Scottish princess scowls at the couple as Elsa stares with an immensely satisfied smile.
"Possible wha' now?" Merida growls.
"Yes Anna please explain." Elsa smiles pleasantly in a way that sends chills down Kristoff's spine as Anna nervously swallows a lump in her throat.
"Well you heard her Anna, explain." Anna fixes her boyfriend with a heated glare before standing.
"You traitor..." She hisses under her breath, Anna coughs to clear her throat then bounces on her heels taking a few breaths. Elsa and Merida watch on, the queen with a look of amusement and the princess unimpressed. "Okay." Anna says having finally readied herself. "First off what was all that?" Elsa raises her brows letting out a chuckle.
"All what?" Anna huffs in annoyance at Elsa's amusement.
"That. You were so obviously flirting with Merida! When were you going to tell me about all-" Anna raises her arms gesturing to the of them. "-this." Elsa and Merida are silent for a moment."
"Flirtin'?" Merida looks over at Elsa "She thinks we were flirtin'?" Elsa shakes her head as Anna taps her foot in frustration.
"Well, what were you doing?" Elsa lets out a small laugh at Anna's expression.
"Merida and I decided to have a friendly snowball fight, to let out a little stress from the constant trade negotiations and the like, her idea mainly." Merida's expression turns sour as Elsa explains.
"Well it would've been friendly if her royal highness didn't start cheatin!" Elsa gasps at the accusation turning to Merida with an offended look.
"How dare you, a queen never cheats." She turns away from Merida looking huffy as the princess rolls her eyes. "Its just not good sportsmanship."
"Oh yes how dare I accuse a queen of bad sportsmanship." Merida bows mockingly to Elsa. "I suppose a wee fairy then must of come and enchanted your fort so it was fortified with ice," Elsa's eyes open in dismay "She probably also was the one behind the hail of snowballs raining down on me," Elsa winces under the comments as she tries to avoid Kristoff and Anna's self satisfied smirks, "Not to mention that one giant snowball that took down half my-"
"Okay! You made your point." Merida smiles at Elsa's cry for mercy. "Look I'll admit I got overzealous and probably shouldn't have went all out on you like I did. I'm sorry, if there's anything I can do to make it up to you-" Merida raises her brows at Elsa. "What?" Merida wiggles her brows, Elsa winces a tight defensive smile on her face. "Please don't look at me like that... " Elsa whines inching away as Merida steps closer, she holds her hands out to distance herself from the Scottish princess. "Merida no..." She jumps and turns to run when Merida suddenly lunges for her but is caught around the waist by the younger princess. Anna and Kristoff watch in surprise as the queen squeals and laughs as the princess viciously tickles her sides.
Elsa's laughter begins to die down as Merida stops, still giggling Elsa turns her head to look at Merida. The two whisper to each other before Elsa straightens, Merida's hand still wrapped around her waist till Elsa catches Anna and Kristoff's intrigued looks and she quickly removes Merida's hand, smile dropping instantly. Elsa clears her throat as Merida turns to see Anna and Kristoff staring at them, her eyes widen in surprise as she had forgotten they were there.
"So Princess Merida, shall we continue the trade agreements?"
"Wut?" Merida turns to Elsa seeing her glance at Anna and Kristoff before cluing in. "Ah yes grand idea yer majesty. Shall we discuss the trade in the study?"
"Yes that will work wonderfully." Elsa turns to Anna and Kristoff, "Sorry to cut this short-"
"Oh no I get it." Anna raises her hands smiling as she talks. "Arendelle and DunBroch still have negotiations to go through, trades to establish, relationships to work on..." Anna begins waving the two off, "Lots of work to be done can't be standing around here all day." as the two finally are out of sight Kristoff nudges Anna with his shoulder.
"Those two have it so bad for each other." Anna nods.
"Think we should bring them to the 'Love experts'?" Kristoff shrugs at Anna's suggestion.
"I don't know they might just end up settling this one themselves..."
