"You sound like you'd benefit from hanging around my castle. I am very much in the same boat, and I tend to try and keep things warm within the walls.~
Maybe we can have some tea and cakes whilst we're at it.~"
She was attempting to gauge Alice's interest.
— “ That's right~! It is good to adjust body temperature as well as to not make them drop too low~!
It feels uncomfortable when my whole body feels like they are a popsicle ~! ”
@ANYTHING4GOLD That eye twitch wouldn't go away.
"No, I'm not made for goblin babies... I'm made to rule, it's why I look like this. It reminds people of their mother, and generally people like their mothers."
She was trying so hard to put the Goblin back on track without losing her temper.
She's going to hoist the collar high to keep it out of reach of the goblin.
Using all 7'3 of her height to her full advantage.
Gobbo should know better! The Queen can teach her, if asked.
@ANYTHING4GOLD Her smile would fade slightly. And whilst the Goblin couldn't see it, Kale's eye would twitch in annoyance.
"Whoreish in Goblin terms right...?"
@ANYTHING4GOLD "Of course I do. I'm royalty.~"
Her voice was cheery, and she would make a gesture with her head for the Goblin to follow her.
"I have enough to keep you fed for as long as you wish to stay~!"
"If my contacts are to be believed, your penchant for winding up in control."
The Queen would clear her throat, she had expected the woman to jump at the opportunity.
"I assume, through that, you have your methods... and my guess would be contracts."
She would follow her —
@ANYTHING4GOLD The Queen's hand would gently come down to the Goblin's head. Patting her gently.
"That's not very nice. You shouldn't do that, why not just ask if they've got food to spare?"
@ANYTHING4GOLD The moment the Goblin agreed, Kale would very happily put the Goblin down as gently as she could.
She may have been a cruel woman, but tormenting a Goblin with claws that sharp? That'd just be stupid.
"There's a good Goblin. Now then, why did you want the collar?"
— I want to know what you would want for such a service. After all, I have a lot to lose if I can't have your services."
She was effectively offering Makima a blank deal. A simple job for whatever Makima could want from a royal.
"I'll let you write the actual contract, but... I wish for your skills. Specifically in contract writing and parsing."
There was a pause, the Queen clearly understood what she was proposing.
"I couldn't quite think of anyone better suited for that job. And in exchange... —
"What deal do you have in mind?"
She's interested in what they have to say now.. after all, it's a rare chance when someone makes a contract with her
"I'm listening."
@ANYTHING4GOLD "Do you promise not to attempt to climb me?"
She would keep the Goblin at arms length. She already learnt her lesson about just how sharp those claws were.
"That's the only way you're coming down from air jail."
"I merely wish to make a deal. You're efficient, and come as a very highly recommended manager..."
"And it just so happens I have a lot of open vacancies that could use someone with your skill set to take charge... I could even sweeten the deal, name your price, I'll pay it."
The Queen is making a mental note that she absolutely has to add a sauna to the castle.
"Crisp spring days do make the best days to enjoy a few hours in the sauna.~"
Her eyes may be wandering a little bit, lingering on areas that would be inappropriate for a Queen to stare at.
She would let the silence hang over them, seemingly comfortable in her position.
That smile still etched upon her face, her fingers still twirling through his hair.
This, this was a moment she could stay in.
He looked down at the ground before he spoke quietly.
“ You will be ... A beautiful experience. ”
He smiled as he would place his hands against her upper thigh. Eyes closing with a subtle sigh.
“ Thank you ... ”
