The Power of Friendship

[Lady Rosalie St. Claire]

Rose nodded in agreement with Lady Natalie’s words, though she was highly amused at her words concerning the eldest Sarkozsy Princess. She would so love to be a fly on the wall when Lady Natalie would be attempting to fit the other young woman into one of her creations, but it seemed like it would take time and effort for them to actually manage it all. First, they’d have to deal with the Court’s rumor mongering and the lords and ladies of it actually agreeing on something other than sending the delegation back to their country empty-handed.

“Why not question his ability to be the heir while we’re at it,” she grinned, a slightly vicious tone to her voice at that. “Thank the Triad he’s not the only Sarkozsy son available for the position, as we have seen ourselves recently.” Pausing, she gave another nod, entirely with agreement of the other lady’s words. The Princes seemed to be dealing fine for now, so they could easily take Princess Emmaline for Triadon. “Perhaps we might even get one or both of her brothers covering for her absence,” she added, shrugging her shoulders to show that she wasn’t certain the absence would be unnoticed and licking the spoon clean, eyeing the empty dessert dish with some disappointment. Oh well, it was good while it lasted.

“Getting Her Highness out of here shouldn’t be a problem at all, seeing as one of the royals needs to be in residence should more of them delegations arrive, and we’ll deal with everything else as it comes.” She finished and gave Lady Natalie a curious look to confirm it, making plans of her own, as well. There’d be things to consider, and everything, after all.

The disappointment in Rosalie's face amused her quietly. She was such an expressive young woman that Natalie had to wonder if she wore her feelings on her sleeve. It was entirely possible. "I'm certain they can and no one in the Court will blame her. Anyone would want to get away for a little while. Besides, I'd like to see Tristan's skills as a host. That will be enjoyable to watch. Not that I am doubting him, of course." Ahem.

"I don't think we're expecting anymore delegations. The only nation I could really think of is Arton, but why would they send anyone? That is just asking for trouble and trouble is the last thing anyone wants." She gave a firm nod after her words.

Standing up to put her dish away, Rose stifled a giggle, since she was certain no one really wanted to deal with a consistently restless enough not to stay in one place and tried to remember her history. “They want Demeria back where it came from, no? Only logical. And they have a possible way of doing it.” The blonde pointed her spoon toward Lady Natalie, but shrugged her shoulders, dismissing the thought for now. “We’ll see how it happens, though. What’s our plan for now, aside from finishing packing?”

Curious, she placed the spoon where it belonged with the rest of the dishes already there, and turned back, all ears. As for the younger Prince's abilities as a host, she would've liked to see that, too, but as she wasn't going to be there, that would be a bit hard to find out, though the thought of it was enough to amuse her.

"We're going to viciously and swiftly quash any rumors that fly around Court that implication Emma's involvement in Nikolai's flight. We shall encourage all rumors pinning it on the coward and oathbreaker," she nodded her head firmly at her idea and then let out a breath. It was not going to be a pleasant time for all involved, but it would have to be done. "I'll inform Serah of this change, as well."

She eyed Rosalie then, "Any questions?"

Rose grinned. “Don’t forget the case of his abandoning his siblings to the wolves,” she commented, nodding in agreement to the words. There really was nothing more to be said on the matter, and it’ll be a trial and a half to find every single rumor, but that was where all the sneaking she ever did was going to come in handy. “I’d suggest of drafting a lady or two to help us out but that may backfire. Unless Lady Serah or you may have any suggestions.”

There, a reminder that she was a newcomer wouldn’t hurt, but she certainly must remedy that weakness, and soon. Making a mental note to try running into a few ladies of the Court with far more grace than she had into Princess Emmaline at their first meeting, the young woman grinned, already anticipating the trip itself and the rest of it. Of course, a full dish of chocolate helped her cheering up, as well. “Anything else I need to know?”

"I'm sure our rumors will spread and other ladies of the Court will follow our example. Any that do not can receive a solid dressing down from any of us," the smile was a bland and almost cold one. Any lady that dared to mention Princess Emmaline in a negative light would receive the full brunt of her justice, so to speak. At the latter question, she shook her head, "Not that I'm aware of, no. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. We've got work to do."
