@heldearth​​​​ ​ ( nikolai )  sent:      ‘ the devil’s in the details,    but you got a friend in me. ’     /     folkore rp meme  —  vol 2    (  𝑎𝑐𝑐𝑒𝑝𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔.  )          

she could feel it once again even inside the closed walls of the palace,      the pull of gravity   /    the gush of wind that used to make the  high wire  wobble    &    along with it,    threatened to pull her down to  meet her shadow  in the most  unceremonious  fall.    the papers she’d brought that were laid out on the table  fluttered  with the breeze that blew in from the window,    but  not one  flew out its place:   stubborn     &     determined,    as she was.    the smile that appeared on her lips was  not one she had reserved for friends.    instead,    she gave him   the sheepish smile  of a  humble soldier  who was  grateful  to have been offered his friendship  at least  in words.   however,    inej never liked  putting on a guise she didn’t feel comfortable in.    the  practiced courtesy  in her voice was so overdone,    it almost sounded like  bitter resentment.     ❝    I am thankful for that,    moi tsar.    ❞      the title was still foreign to her tongue,    like a blow of  betrayal  against the beliefs ingrained in her.    the suli recognized no king.    at least the fruit of her hard work would taste  sweet.     inej hadn’t come  so far  with a meticulous  plan of action,     pulled  so many strings  to be allowed an audience with the king,    only to be  dismissed  with empty-promises forged in  charm   &   good-nature.     she had come for answers.      if the devil was in the details,    she wanted to see what it had to say.    

with her hands clasped behind her back,   spine arched so inej  stood tall  with the grace of an  acrobat.     ❝   in that case,    can I count on this friendship   &   expect you to sanction these plans ?    ❞
