Married life with Bowser has become an interesting new journey for Rosalina. Mostly for the fact that it wasn't mostly space-related.
For one thing, the denizens of the Darklands adored her.
Much of it might have to deal with the fact that, well, she actually, willingly, and happily married their beloved King of the Koopas and Lord of the Darklands. After so many years of Bowser trying and failing to endear himself to Princess Peach so he can marry her-sometimes not so nicely, which just gets the Mario Bros knocking on their door-Bowser has finally secured himself a wife. An absurdly powerful one at that, with her great magical might as the Queen of the Cosmos.
Rosalina was most certainly a welcome addition to the Kingdom.
Among the many, many gifts she's received for her warm welcome, she was also granted a place to stop by whenever she wasn't at the Cosmic Observatory. She can't very well leave it unattended, after all. Luckily the Lumas were always around to help chime in with this aspect.
But this is all for another day. Because today, Rosalina was having a bit of a fun time. She had slowly opened her eyes for a moment, sitting up in a bed and yawning rather cutely, rubbing her eyes. She turned to her right.
"Zzzzzzzz..."
And there was Bowser, still snoozing the morning away. And he was not a quiet snorer.
Kammy slowly walked in with ear muffs over her head, and her eyes widened at the sight of Rosalina slowly waking up. She rubbed her eyes, then cleaned her glasses so that she was sure she was seeing things right, before looking at the pair again and seeing that Rosalina has indeed had a rather peaceful slumber. WHich she was currently trying to process as she lightly wracked her head.
"This Space Queen had a nice and peaceful sleep right next to our Snoriness. I can't believe it." Kammy muttered while rubbing her chin.
Rosalina smiled at the snoring Koopa King next to her, seeing him still snoozing away. His snores might as well be semi-loud sleepy growls for how loud they really were. But she didn't seemed o mind them, not in the slightest.
"He looks so at peace when he is in slumber." Rosalina hummed softly as she had a hand on her cheek. "So cute..."
"Cute. She unironically calls him cute." Kammy couldn't help but acknowledge again, and smile sweetly.
Rosalina smiled as she lightly reached out for Bowser, and began innocently playing with his hair. It felt so soft and smooth, strands smoothly sliding through her fingers. His snores still echoed throughout the room, but she didn't mind. She didn't want to wake him up so soon, he was positively adorable when he was sleeping.
Though, he wasn't the only one.
She turned around, on the other side of her, and witnessed the much smaller Junior sleeping by her side as well. He was snoring a bit more peacefully, in comparison to Bowser's more growling-like snores. His were more baby-like and quiet. Especially when his cute little fangs would peek out every now and then as he breathes softly. Rosalina smiled, unable to help herself from reaching her hand out and gently playing with the even smaller tuft of hair on Junior's hair, the same color as his father's. She wondered if it would grow out even further as he got older. She wasn't too sure about it.
But there was one thing she was completely certain of. He was irresistibly cute.
A bit of cuddling wouldn't hurt, would it?
Rosalina reached her hand out and placed it on one of his chubby cheeks, giving it the briefest of pinches. He lightly shook from the contact, but didn't wake up from it. Instead, as if already figuring out the owner, he was quick to shimmy along the bed and snuggle closer to Rosalina, giving her a hug as he gently nestled his head against her bosom.
"Mmm...hmmm...Mama..." Junior muttered quietly and affectionately, clinging onto Rosalina for a cuddle. Rosalina looked behind him a bit and could see his small tail gently wagging like a happy puppy after he got closer to her.
"You are so happy to be close to me even while slumbering. You truly are a precious one, Junior." Rosalina smiled as she cuddled the boy closed to her, sweetly giving multiple small kisses to the top of his head, which quietly made him laugh in his sleep.
"Hah...Mama, no...that tickles..! Hehe...!"
"Apologies, Junior. But it appears I cannot myself right now." Rosalina chuckled to herself while caressing the top of Junior's head.
She then felt an arm wrap around her waist, much to her surprise. A pair of large, powerful arms pulled her closer to the owner of that strength.
Bowser had pulled her into a cuddle himself, while also having Junior within his hold due to it. That way, his embrace managed to embrace them both.
While still snoring quite audibly.
Rosalina sighed tiredly at this, as she reached her hand under his chin and began scratching. "You are quite silly, even when asleep." She briefly looked to hear stomping quickly moving. She looked to see that Bowser's tail began wagging as well. For some reason it's just so cute how Bowser and Junior tends to feel like a mix between a kitten and puppy, in terms of reactions to being shown affection.
Kitty...
If she recalled correctly, there was a magic item around called a Super Bell. She was curious about what Bowser would look like. Would he be a giant cat, paired with a feline tail? Softer skin? Softer paws? A fuzzy belly where it'd be difficult to resist giving him belly rubs? What about Junior as well? A smaller kitty Koopa Prince? It'd be outright impossible to resist cuddling him. Oh, what about all of the Koopalings as well? One big kitty Koopaling kuddle fest?
Now Rosalina was super invested. She'd have to pitch them into it and see if they'd be interested. Just as soon as they wake up.
"Mama..." Junior mumbled in his sleep, cuddling closer to Rosalina, while Bowser yawned and further pulled them closer to his chest.
"My beautiful Space Queen..." Bowser muttered with a sleepy yawn.
Rosalina blinked slowly, then smiled as she closed her eyes and went back to sleep. There's no way she was going to wake them up right now, they seemed for too content. She wasn't going to disrupt that.
Maybe later.
First instance of a series of short stories indicating the married life of Rosalina and Bowser. Sleepy cuddles with Bowser and Junior, with Rosalina in the middle, unable to bring herself to wake them up.
They're not going to be all that long, as you can see. Around this length, and maybe a little bit more.
Simple, cute, and maybe a little bit silly and wholesome. That's the idea.
Until the next one soon arrives!
