The next morning it was time to fulfill my promise to maddy and answer her questions joy
here she comes is she wearing glasses and holding a notebook?
"the cat goes diddle." replied maddy " now for my questions?" she clears her voice and ruffles through her notebook that has a ton of scribbles on it." hey these are not scribbles it's riddlish it's not supposed to be a written language!" she shouts "Now, are you a nargle?"
"No I'm a author, please, me a nargle, as if." honestly humph
"Do you own us and wonderland? she's staring at me again it's creepy how she know's where I am.
"No I do not" i reply apparently that's enough because, she does this weird skip hop run thing away from me. thank goodness I can stop my thoughts from her since I'm an author.
Now, that she's gone i may begin, it was just another morning at ever after high we'll go to the boys dorm room where dexter has just returned to his brothers snoring.
Dexter can be considered one of the smartest and most logical thinkers of ever after high. then why was he so confused how could a villain sing like a princess, no better.
he reaches into his nightstand drawer and pulls out a pair of headphones with the charming crest a gold crown on a silver shield backgrounded in royal blue a gift from his mother for his birthday when his father forgot, once again. plugs them into his camera lays on his bed and listens once again and scouls hoping to find one thing wrong but comes up with nothing, not even a small squeaky note.
Originally he had planned to find raven failing to sing and share it all around the school for some credentials with his fellow royals or keep it for blackmail material to stop her from doing any evil deeds, this wasn't good for a laugh or blackmail. She could go into show business if she wanted after high school if it weren't for her destiny. he continues to re watch it over and over until he passes out from sheer exhaustion.
The next morning he wakes up to find a flustered hopper croakington shaking him "What." dexter said blinking his eyes open with a yawn.
"Dude, get up we're going to be late for royal etiquette with the white queen it's already seven class starts in fifteen minutes!" that got dexter out of bed fast as he scrambled around trying to get ready for the day
five minutes before class dexter is ready for class unfortunately there isn't enough time to stop by the lunch room for a quick snack his stomach groans in great protest. and he's off barely making it before the bell. royal etiquette is a complete bore it's all about refinishing topics that most if not all royals have learned from the very time that they could understand them.
hero training isn't dexter's forte he has the brains not the brawn and has literally gotten the very worst grades possible. Unlike his brother, Daring, who aces all of his classes and can make any girl swoon, Dexter only is good in classes where there worksheets and homework anything hands on and he's out, and forget about the ladies the only time they talk to him is when they are trying to get on his brothers good side or are failing a class. how he wishes he was his brother.
Thankfully after his failed attempt to rescue his damsel the new student cupid was time for lunch his stomach was very happy. he sat with his fellow royal brother and his group of friends reading a book on the troll rights war, only looking up to see a group of girls running from where raven sat and he had the sudden urge to sit and give her some company, after all she will be his brothers step mother in law or something like that, fairytales can be so confusing. eh, he will just talk to her after lunch during their free period.
His attention is suddenly grabbed again by his possibly future sister in law apple's high pitched giggle over something ridiculous that daring must have said according to his smug smirk and how all attention is on Daring.
he turns his attention back to raven who's in the action of throwing away her remains of what the lunch ladies call lunch, before gathering up her items, and making way for the exit doors, dexter following soon after.
Dexter followed raven through the shadows to a secluded clearing in the forest. it was simple and rather dark as it was under a willow tree the only thing around was some vines growing atop of a cliff , some flowers, and three tree stubs that resembled two chairs on opposite sides of a small table. raven turned around to look at the person who she was well aware of following her and face change from one who knows all to shock before slight confusion. "What are you doing here?" she asked him sitting down on one of the stump chairs
"I came to ask about your music." dexter responded looking ready to run at the slightest sign of attack from raven.
Raven had gained a bored expression and gestured for him to sit down on the other stump chair that he did very hesitantly. "You're wondering why I was singing, am I right?" Raven asked
"Sort of, I wanted to know how you managed to sing so well?" he asked meekly almost expecting to be blasted with magic from the blushing raven.
"Well I just sing a lot it's a good stress reliever." said blushing raven replied
"Well you're really good." dexter what are you doing? he mentally asked himself
"Thanks." mumbles a bright red raven
"I think that you should share it on the mirror net." Idiot I'm so dead.
"Why not, but I'm not having the world critique me because of who my mother is so could we do this without people knowing who I am?" now it was raven asking herself what she was doing
"You could have an alternate identity or we could post it with just an audio recording?" she's not going to kill me yay.
"I sort of like the alternate identity one." responded raven allowing some of her 'evil queen' mask to fall.
"Ok, so to do that you have to have a new name and possibly a new look. So any requests on the name?" Now dexter was aware that raven was not going to kill him at the slightest thing he started to relax himself, just a little bit.
"Don't' know of any, but I would like it to be something to do with singing." Raven stated though it came out more like a question.
"How about nightingale you know like the bird, they are supposed to sing well?" he offers
"No, dosen't sound right and plus what would my new look be like?" Dexter see's she has a point.
"Alright how about Siren from the greek myths?"
"I like it they're supposed to be great singers and since they are usually related with the sea so if I were to have a new look we could base it off of that." Raven agreed
"Ok well then Siren shall we post your singing on the mirrornet now?" dexter asked with a nervously and unintentional flirting with raven, who is completely naive of what he's doing considering the fact that no one would flirt with 'the daughter of the evil queen.'
"Er, actually I was thinking that maybe I could record a new one you know that doesn't have all the drama in it." said Raven sheepishly
"Ok, so how about we meet after classes in two days at the music hall?" asked dexter
"I'll be there on friday just please don't go telling the royals about this, K?"
"They won't know a thing from me." Dexter really wasnt planning on telling them anymore.
"See ya Charming." raven said as she dashed through the woods to reach her's and apples dorm room.
"See you Queen" dexter mumbled to the spot where she just was, before returning to his dorm as well.
