    Summary

    Laios feels how Laios feels. He usually says exactly what he means, and is entirely unconvincing when he doesn’t mean something. And yet, no matter how many observations and notes Kabru took on what to expect, it still shocked him every day just how unpredictable the king could be.

    ---

    Little moments of how Laios and Kabru's relationship continues to develop after Laios becomes king. Becoming his royal advisor is turning out to be more complicated than Kabru could have ever imagined.

    Summary

    The painting lacks color in his advisor's eyes. Now, as the blue seems to shine in Kabru's eyes, Laios finds himself put off by the dullness of the drawing. He sometimes forgets how much those irises have become a staple. Always by his side, at his table, in the garden. With a soft voice that urges him along, braving the diplomatic storms they keep facing. The way this painting looks now is an understatement of who Kabru is. Laios scrunches his nose at the thoughts that occupy his mind.

    "Is it that bad?" Kabru asks, although his voice lacks any real concern. The advisor opens the buttons of his doublet to take it off, which makes Laios realize how hot the room has become because of the beaming sunlight. Kabru is only clad in a white flannel shirt now; it's a much nicer view than the painting.

    "No, no!" Laios is quick to defend, although he deflates a bit seconds later: "It's just—he hasn't colored in your eyes yet. It looks odd."

     

    Or:
    A meaningful bond, new and alluring, has sparked between King Laios Touden and his royal advisor Kabru of Utaya. Navigating their relationship proves to be a difficult task, but not to worry, such strong devotion should be enough to conquer any challenge, right?
