The smile and the bright laugh are more than enough to reassure Peter, and he nods his emphatic agreement to her words. He’s hardly known her an hour, but already Peter believes she’d have been a good queen, in another life. The answer to his second question is met with a touch less enthusiasm though.
Court was not something familiar to Peter, he knew there was a game to play but it was beyond him. All he did was watch the pieces move and try his best to understand. ”I think... don’t think... I hope she won’t do anything.” Peter sighed, chewing his lip. He wants to be able to say that he would support Rexanna, but the more honest per of him knows that is not the case. He is loyal to Zariah, for better or worse.
Peter isn’t sure if Rexanna is going it for him or for herself, but she shifts focus back to the market around them and offers him a smile. Bright enough that Peter offers her one back, shy and hesitant still, and nods. ”I’d like that.” He isn’t much for shopping, but he does like Rex, and how easy it is to spend time with her. It’s not like he has anything else to do for the afternoon.
PET
he is trying to tell you that there is some sort of shining star now buried deep inside him and he has to dig it out with a knife.
