“A room is a lot, though,” he said suspiciously. That was a good explanation for the food, but not thousands and thousands of Gil worth of toys. Lumen recalled that before, the king had said he liked being around someone who wasn’t trying to get on his good side purely because he was a king. “I made it because Calvin Hobbes said it would be good for you, and because I thought you would enjoy it.” “Is that what you wanted to ask, little one?” “Why’d you make a playroom for me?” he demanded. “Hello, Luminis,” he said warmly, reaching down and scooping him up. With meat.Įven Zack couldn’t stop him from scrambling down and running over. The king was sitting down and holding a container of food. Lumen blinked in surprise from Cloud’s lap. That was why it was more than a little surprising when, after gathering up Zack and Cloud too, they got to the playroom and found the king already there. Chances were that Lumen wouldn’t even get to talk to him today. Okay.” He’d actually meant ‘I want you to take me to him,’ but the guy was a king. Why don’t you go play in your cool new fort until he gets a break?” “I’m sure he would be very happy to talk with you as soon as he can. “Sure, angel,” she said, smiling indulgently. “Lumi, you don’t need to bother the king about it,” said Kunsel. “Kunsel doesn’t know something? You’re right, this is definitely a matter for His Majesty to handle.” Libertus looked shocked, though some of it was definitely playacting. “If Kuns didn’t know, you definitely won’t.” “I wanna talk to the king,” he said, then added “please” as an afterthought. “Okay, okay, stop trying to give yourself a concussion. “Gonna ask for a favor.” He managed to flip upside down, forcing Kunsel to kneel so he wouldn’t drop him. “Gonna talk to the guards,” he said, squirming again. “Woah!” said Kunsel, scooping him up again once he realized. You know you don’t have to fight anymore, right? We’re going to keep you safe.” “It’ll be fun,” said Kunsel, bouncing him a little bit. “He must trust Cal a lot, and Cal decided that you needed a playroom.” He smiled a little. He has plenty of resources to make a playroom for you.” Kunsel hesitated, which didn’t exactly fill Lumen with confidence. “Why would the king give me a whole room of stuff?” When he tugged on Kunsel’s shirt, the ex-SOLDIER bent down and picked him up. “Kuns,” he whispered when he was sure no one else would be able to overhear them-not even overprotective Zack with his SOLDIER senses. If he asked Kunsel, he would get an answer. Lumen was sure of that, since it transcended worlds and timelines. ← Previous Work Part 6 of Sunshine in the Celestial Spheres, ← Previous Work Part 15 of Divine ComedyĪshes' Library Stats: Published: Updated: Words: 19,160 Chapters: 9/?
