"This got to be the dumbest thing you've ever done" sighed Anna.
"Really?" scoffed Elsa, her voice distorted by the physical effort. "Remember how many dumb things we did as kids."
Anna chuckled. "Yeah, true." She then laughed. "You once froze nanny's behind!"
They both laughed at the memory, but resumed to their effort. In a concert of huffs and puffs and sighs, they were trying to removing the armor parts out of Elsa's arms.
"Still, that is a dumb idea."
"I have to admit, I did not think this through."
Anna shook her head. "You rule a whole country, Elsa. Sometimes I wonder how a genius like you with incredible royal skills can come up with such stupid plans."
"You think I'm a genius?" blushed Elsa.
"Not in that very moment, no."
Elsa smiled but Anna didn't see it. She was too focused on the metal sleeve she was trying to pull to her. Finally, in a jerk, it went off, and Anna sighed with a tone of victory.
"Okay, right arm is done. Now, the left."
Elsa took a glance down to see the multiple knight armor parts on the bathroom floor.
Turns out that wearing a decorative armor was not the most brilliant idea of the century. When she spent the whole day helping around being the oh so mysterious knight, she didn't realize that the cold air outside had shrunken the steel against her undergarment. And as the cold never bothered her…
"I'm… Almost… Here…" said Anna with a short breath, pulling the last part of the armor towards her in strong moves.
With one sudden pull, it went off, and Anna smiled broadly, but she lost her balance and fell into the bathtub.
"Anna!" exclaimed Elsa, trying to catch her.
"I'm fine", winced Anna, though she was rubbing her back when she got up with the help of her sister. "I'm just gonna have a bruise."
"Sorry about that", apologized Elsa.
Anna noticed how ashamed she had been the past hour. She tried to hide it with humor and sarcasm, but Anna could tell that she was not proud of how her whole chevaleresque adventure had turned.
"It's fine", assured Anna.
She looked at her elder's body. "How are your bruises?"
At each point where the armor had articulations, Elsa's skin was covered with blue and dark red marks, which means the elbows, the knees, the feet, the neck, and the wrists.
"It's nothing", shrugged Elsa.
Anna frowned. "Nothing?"
She poked at one of the bruises on Elsa's neck.
"Aoh! Hey!"
"See? You're hurt. This is ridiculous. I'm gonna get you an ointment."
Elsa grumbled. "I don't need it."
Anna rolled her eyes to the ceiling. "How are you going to explain those marks to the council, tomorrow, uh?!"
She had a point, and Elsa looked down.
Then came a long silence as they picked up the pieces of the armor on the floor.
"What are we going to do with those?" asked Elsa.
"I don't know. Maybe you could use it as a nightgown, since you're so fond of it."
She got slapped by a metal leg.
"Hey!"
Author's Note: Next time Elsa will create herself an armor made out of ice. But then, she won't really be anonymous... Another prompt I got lots of fun writing! Thanks Tumblr anon for it, and thank you for reading! :D
