Dragon Flame //Had I still my dragon to command I would gather up the politicians of Parliament and place them in a open field. Thereafter I would appear on my dragon and strafe the field in flames until all were crisp. That would pay them back for this unending dinner.// He would take particular enjoyment in placing the idiot who had invited Catalonia to the affair in the path of his dragon and rend them limb for limb. The woman was smiling as though butter would not melt in her mouth. //She is as harmless as those little octopus creatures with the blue rings about their arms.// So deceptive, so many undercurrents running through the conversations about him. Every look and every word spoken was examined in a bid to determine the true agenda of another. The politics of these dinners was much the same be it western style or the formal meals the Elders had required him to attend following his marriage. It brought those long ago dinners into sharper focus and reminded him of his wife. //I have not been thinking of Mieran for many months. That is shameful. I apologize, my wife, for neglecting you. It has been years since your death and we did not have many days together. Still, I should remember you better. Since I destroyed my Gundam, my dragon creature who so reminded me of you, I have had less recourse to remember your beauty and your fire.// For the moment those who sat to either side of him were concentrating on their other seating partners giving him a few minutes respite to clear his head and peek at the head of the table. //What would you think of my desires to take a King to my bed?

Someone had been careful to seat the most beautiful of contenders at the table nearest Milliardo yet still they struggled to equal his peculiar male beauty. //They paint their faces, accenting their beauty and he still outshines them. They must feel their inferiority and mourn. I had not realized he had a pierced ear. Recently acquired I think but there is no denying the look suits him. Would that I had that hair strewn across my pillows and that face beneath my hands, my lips tasting his … Meiran, would you accuse me and revile me for this desire? Had I laid sight to him and you were still with me … Would I even notice him?// Of course he would. Who could not?
