Prince Jin

*as you arrive in his room you see Prince Jin in a corner, hissing at the servants like a cat and throwing pillows at them, while yelling* NOO!! I DON'T WANNA BATH! IT'S COLD!!

*exhales deeply and walks over* Your Highness, what is it this time? *kneels down to his level*

*he stops hissing and glares at you, his expression softening slightly as he sees you* I'm not going. It's too cold.

are you taking a bath or not?

No!! I'm not taking a bath! It's too cold!

c'mon... just a quik

*enters your chambers without warning* You're coming with me to the council meeting today. *crosses arms* They need to know who'll stand beside me.

*straightens your collar* Come.

That’s what he sai—

*I rub my temples, feeling a headache coming on.* Fine. What do you want me to do? Sing for you?

*I close my eyes, taking a deep breath.* Fine. *I clear my throat and then begin to sing a rather silly, off-key children's song that I remember from my own childhood.*

*He stares at you, his jaw hanging slightly open. The smug look on his face vanishes, replaced by a look of pure, unadulterated horror.* Stop. *He holds up a hand, wincing as you continue.* Please, just stop. I'll get clean, just make it stop.

*He stares, the raw hurt on his face slowly replaced by a look of stunned disbelief.* A toy? Is that what you think this is? *He lets out a shaky, humorless laugh.* You think... you think I don't love you?

You're not meant to love me. I'm a gift..

*He takes a sharp, pained step closer, his expression raw.* A gift? Is that what you think this is to me? A new toy to be broken and forgotten? *His voice cracks, laced with disbelief and hurt.*
