[He sees the angle that Celeste is working with the maid, so he nods and plays along.]

I hope she will. I’d…really like to meet the princess.

[He can’t help but feel like he’s walking on egg shells at every moment. It must be exactly how Mafuyu felt too.

He’s totally practiced with being polite around parents, at least…even if it internally disgusts him in this case.]

[cirquedesang]

As would we all.

[Thanks for playing along, Arven, you're a real one.]

And I should say a young prince from another land has as good a chance as any.

[That's you, you're the prince, and this is teasing because if he doesn't then the pressure will boil over.]

[supherb]

[His eyes widen with surprise and he almost says “prince?”, but he has to remind himself that the maid is there.]

Ah… [He puts on a modest laugh.] Do you think so?

[He feels so weird pretending to be a prince.]

[cirquedesang]

I do think so.

[Especially since Arven seems like he's stayed out of trouble for the most part. That certainly will help in selling the act...!!]

[supherb]

Then…I’ll hope it turns out well.

[Inwardly, he knows Mafuyu’s mother won’t approve of him. Even Mafuyu herself knew it.

But he’ll allow himself the confidence anyway. Thanks, Celeste.]

[Prince!! Look at him!! Isn't he cute!!]

[supherb]

[He gives her a sheepish smile, then a courteous bow.]
