Skyler indeed heard thoose tapping little feet from afar but made no attempt to prepare himself for the royal meeting, just stood there calmly as the guards became annoyingly antsy where they stood a good distance away from him. How was it that "normal" people needed a diaper change for something as simple as a royal meeting? This Skyler would never understand. It wasn'tuntil the footsteps where very close by that he slowly stood up from leaning against the wall to show her some sort of repect at least. He wasn't much for people of higher standing then himself but at least he knew how to play the game and that game was right now to not stand leaning against a fucking wall when royalty approached. Simple.
As that voice came floating towards him it didn't even take a second after she finished talking for him to give the guards a cold look and calmly but firm said: "You heard the queen; get out." And instantly the guards almost ran to the door to leave them be. Well at least they TRIED to walk even though it was in such rushed pace that it could have been taken for jogging. Idiots. As the door closed behind them he slowly turned his gaze towards this new queen, looked at her with those hetero eyes as if he tried to get an opinion of her. She seamed decent enough this far. At least she wasn't some snotty brat trying to fit into a pair os shoes at least 6 sizes to big for them, she seamed decent enough to be queen. Good posture, dressingchoices and lack of shyness. Good beginning indeed.
Skyler himself was well groomed; dressed in fancy black clothing and with every strand of hair in perfect placement. Even though he was up to code his cold eyes told another story about what kind of man he really was. He did not care whatsoever if he was splattered with blood, filth and guts. Nothing of value was really valueable for him unless he got what he wanted which seldom was things of good nature. He was no common thug though as when the guards finally left them he gave her a respectful bow as a greeting even though he really couldn't care less. Not completely his fault since he was the little psycho that he was; he did not know what feelings really where, but at least he was respectful.
With a straight back he met the eyes of the queen without an ounce of shyness but still with the respect a queen was due. Even if he would probably spoil it slightly when he spoke. He was blunt and on point after all unless he really played the actor role to gain someones false trust. "So you are the new queen?" He said with his calm voice, not letting her eyes get away from his own as he decided if she was worth the hussle or not,. She already have pluspoints from what he had heard about her the rumor way and combined with the way she appeared after all. It would have to do. "Not really getting where all the complaints come from. You seam like a good fit for the position." He said with those cold eyes emotionless but with at least a kind of honesty in his voice. He had come in contact with way worse rulers of different kinds after all.
As stated he was a direct type of man that really didn't take many shortcuts in life. "I heard you are looking for suited people to stand with you and i am offering my services, do you accept?" Straight to the point as per always. She was allowed to ask him whatever she deamed neccecery, he had already planned to answer whatever questions she may have, if any. In any case he had offered, now it was up to her to decide how to go for it.
