A Pillar Of Strength “Miss Relena?” “Hello, Pagan. I guess I should be in bed now, right?” Pagan bowed. “It seems the palace is filled with insomniacs.” Relena closed her eyes and sighed. “I just don’t feel particularly like settling down. Which is odd since I was more than ready for bed when I left the party.” “Such affairs can be tiring.” The old man smiled, a peculiar lift of his heavy moustache. “I trust you noted Mrs. Darlian and your brother were out and about?” Relena tucked herself in at the old man’s side and wrapped her arms about his left arm. “Isn’t it wonderful? I think there will be no problem there now.” “There appeared to be a resolution.” “I should be in bed and so should you. It is very late… or very early in the morning, however you care to look at it. I think even Brother has decided to go to bed.” “His Majesty has retired for the evening. Excuse me for making the observation, Miss Relena, but it has been noted certain of your suitors appear to be a little free with their hands upon your person.” “Heero has not at all been free with my person!” The bushy moustache quivered. “I am well aware he has behaved in an exemplary manner in the public arena. I was referring to other members of the group. Would you mind if I took it upon myself to take this matter up with them? For the sake of propriety they need to be reminded to practise sublimation. Pawing the Princess is frowned upon.” “The pawed upon Princess would be delighted if you would remind her suitors of the tenants of propriety. Perhaps you might drop a hint or two as to the fate of those who touch the untouchable?” “Boiling oil, Miss? Or perhaps the removal of fingers which wander upon forbidden territory?” Relena giggled. “I’m sure you can find some suitably horrifying punishment from the Dark Ages to keep ardent suitors in line.” “I shall peruse the archives in search of something painful and quite humiliating.” “I don’t know what I would do without you, Pagan. You have always been there for me.” “It has been my pleasure to watch you grow into a beautiful and intelligent young woman.” Relena sighed. “I’m sure there were times you despaired of that last, Pagan. There have been times I have been anything but intelligent.” “My dear, we all have our moments. Nobody is perfect and we need time to grow into ourselves.” “You have been a pillar of strength I could lean on since I was a child.” “And you, my dear, were my hope the wrongs of the past could be righted. You have not disappointed this old man. I despaired the Peacecraft line would be lost, now there are three. You are intelligent, wise to the ways of the world, you know your place and what is expected of you.” “I’m not so certain.” End
