mizukixtsukiyomi asked: Hey~ I hope you don't mind me requesting (I love your writing) and I just need some humor ha-ha. Hmm, how about Sinbad finding out his priestess, Kagome, has a thing for Muu Alexius?
Requests still open on my Tumblr
Sinbad scowled, belligerently guzzling his fifth drink of Mahrajan. Oh, it was an adorable sight he was witness to: a lovely, young maiden and a dashing, charming lord so completely enamored with each other that the world around them ceased to exist. However, the king wanted to rip the precious tableau apart with his bare hands because the maiden in this scene was his priestess and the lord was none other than Muu Alexis.
The lecherous king loved living the bachelor life, but seeing Kagome blush and titter at the attention Muu gave her made him inexplicably furious. His mood had become so foul that the harem of women that usually passed the evening on his lap quickly moved on to different companions not long after Sinbad spotted the priestess and Fanalis together.
"You know, if you are this upset over Kagome talking to Muu, maybe you should man up and go after her yourself."
Sinbad jumped at the sound of Pisti's voice and turned to see his petite general perched on the arm of his chair. Sinbad scoffed huffily and finished off his drink. "I have no interest in Kagome in such a way; however as the priestess of Sindria she should not be fawning over a foreign diplomat." Annoyed by Pisti's flippant snort, Sinbad return his attention to the duo. Was it just his imagination or where they closer to each other than before?
Pisti rolled her eyes as she went to pour some more wine for the two of them. If Sinbad was too stubborn to admit he liked Kagome, then he could deal with the inevitable outcome on his own. "But," Pisti thought, lips pursed in annoyance, "if I don't meddle Kagome might leave Sindria, I'd be down a girlfriend, and we'd all be stuck dealing with Sinbad's pouting for who knows how long." Glancing sideways at Sinbad, who looked ready to run his knife through Muu for daring to brush a strand of hair out of Kagome's blushing face, Pisti made her decision.
Slyly, Pisti pushed the refilled goblet of wine in front of Sinbad and rested her chin on his shoulder so she could speak directly into his ear.
"You know, if she did fall for Muu she would leave Sindria to be with him."
Having never considered the possibility of her leaving his kingdom, Sinbad was stunned by the thought. He swiftly turned to his general with a stern look, "She would abandon Sindria for him?" Pisti schooled her features and shrugged nonchalantly, "I mean, it doesn't have to be Muu. It's Kagome we're talking about. If she fell in love with someone, she'd do whatever she had to so she could be with him. Someone like Muu would never abandon Reim so of course she'd leave us instead."
Pisti could see a thousand thoughts running through Sinbad's head and knew one more little nudge would push him over the edge.
"I don't want her to leave Sindria either, so why don't we set her up with someone here! Her and Masrur have been hanging out a lot lately and I could totally see them together. After all, you aren't interested in her so Masrur is probably the best choice."
The pint-sized general couldn't suppress an impish grin as Sinbad paled at her words. As Pisti's luck would have it, Muu chose this exact moment to ask Kagome to dance, which she happily agreed to. Seeing Muu hands on Kagome's exposed flesh was the last straw for the king who abruptly pushed himself out of his seat, nearly causing Pisti to lose her balance and tumble to the floor.
"Hey! Where are you going?" she yelled after his retreating figure.
Pausing for a moment, Sinbad looked over his shoulder with a roguish grin, "I'll admit, I cannot say what I feel for Kagome, however I refuse to let anyone else have her until I know for sure."
With that, the dungeon conquered continued forward, intent on securing the next dance, as well as every one after that, with his priestess.
