HOLY MAIDEN GIRLFRIEND TIME

[faithstaynight]

Exactly What it Says On The Tin. Just a place for me 'n' Jamie to dump all our Jeanne and Zelda nonsense. Most of it will probably happen in the aftermath of towerofanimus BUT HEY WHO KNOWS WHAT WE'LL COOK UP, other AUs might happen!

[Jeanne's slight alarm does not go unnoticed, but it is mildly misinterpreted. Jeanne is a pure soul, after all - Zelda's never known her eyes to wander anywhere that could be considered untoward, even when the princess momentarily sneaks away from her duties to watch her train with the castle's knights (and kindly hand them their asses every time). Another reason to keep her own feelings tightly under wraps.

She smiles, indulgent.]

It would, but I also would not want you to be uncomfortable. As I said, royalty is not expected to attend, so we do not have to go if you do not wish to.

[As always, putting everyone else's feelings before her own.]

[While it's true that Jeanne's eyes have never wandered - even during the hot, muggy summer days that made training in armor unbearable and most of the soldiers shed it in favor of thin cotton shirts and shorts - she wouldn't exactly consider her thoughts pure. Zelda is her Master, her princess... even if Jeanne was human, she was a peasant. To have romantic thoughts like these about Zelda... it was akin to blasphemy!

At least... she tries to tell herself that. But the feeling of warmth that blooms in her chest whenever those thoughts invade her mind... that can't be some kind of sin, can it?]

... Let's go, then.

[Jeanne is a selfless soul, one who puts the needs of everyone far before her own. She knows that the recent meetings have started adding to that ever-present weight on Zelda's shoulders, and something like this would be the perfect thing to take her mind off such things. So she can push aside her own awkwardness for this night.]

If I'm with you, you won't need any other guards, right? Perhaps if we dressed more... casually, we can blend in and enjoy the festivities better.
