IC "Oh, it would be impolite not to throw you a party though," Kuro countered in an attempt to keep everyone's attention on him, while Ezra kept making his way to the picture. Hazel however just seemed displeased with all of this. "How long will you be able to stay? It would be inhospitable to just let you leave without some sort of celebration, it's only right that we do something, and of course then you would have even more of an opportunity to ask for more help in finding your brother. Since there would be other diplomats there.." Kuro explained, feeling sort of like he had gotten a handle on the situation.
Ezra finally reached his destination and timidly brought a hand up from his hiding place to search for the picture, though when he looked up to see if he was getting anywhere, he just saw his mother looking down at him with a very displeased look. No one else could see him from this spot but Hazel could and she did not look happy. She glanced over to see if the others were distracted first though, before she could personally address her son. Honestly she wasn't sure what had gotten into him lately. America had been a very bad influence on him.
-
Xavier was honestly just relieved that everything was okay and he didn't have to change something, and they were really still just taking it a day at a time. Which Xavier was unquestionably grateful for. No looking further than just the end of the day, worked for him. "Heh, alright, just-it's good to know..." he trailed off feeling a little bit awkward before he moved over to be closer to Lou.

{{ And that was all Riley needed to fall completely into the conversation with Kuro. "Well, I will be staying for a few more weeks. I've much to do and I cannot finish in less time than that," he said, the smiled charmingly. "If you and your queen insist on throwing some kind of celebration, I will not stop you. It would be terribly rude of me to turn down such a generous offer." Well, really, he just liked parties, especially if they were being thrown for him. In that slight sense, him and Lou were the same. Lou loved a good party-----it didn't have to be a party thrown for him, just a party in general. "And I would hate to offend your highness. But yes, I suppose it would allow me to have a little more time to search." In a more serious voice, the voice of someone who did mean business, he said, "If I cannot find my brother, many of our people's lives will be lost. I will not risk losing so many innocent people just because he is too much of a coward to come back."
~~~~~~~~~~
Lou was surprised that he found it so cute that Xavier got so flustered when Lou kissed him. It was absolutely adorable. Lou gave him a soft, quick kiss on the cheek, lingered for chest a second as he grinned. "You're cute when your blushin'," he teased gently. "I think I should kiss a more often." When he finished speaking, he pecked Xavier's cheek again. It was fun to see Xavier, who was usually confident, act so flustered and embarrassed. }}

IC Hazel grabbed the picture, looked at it and then looked down at Ezra. "Hmm, for some reason he looks familiar," she said in a soft sarcastic voice and Ezra looked down. "Maybe you could help me figure out why, hmm?" She questioned, fully knowing Ezra wouldn't answer. She gave him a few moments before sighing. "Very well, back to your seat, we'll discuss how poorly you acted later," she said and then turned her attention back to Riley and Kuro. "A party would be a splendid idea. However searching for your brother, well I think we can put a stop to that now. You see, prince Riley, after looking at this picture, I am happy to tell you that I know exactly where your brother is," Hazel said, showing the group the picture she had in her hands, and Kuro's eyes widened a bit before he quietly excused himself, and Ezra let out a small, defeated sigh. How would he explain this to Lou?
-
Xavier was basically only suave on the outside. Xavier gave a short laugh, trying not to feel or act too flustered, but he was failing at that pretty bad. His phone kept going off, it seemed Kuro was texting him a lot in the last minute and then decided it would be better to call him and Xavier pulled back to look at his phone, brow furrowed. Shouldn't he be at some stupid meeting? "Hey Lou, I should probably take this...is that alright?"

{{ Riley's eyes immediately found their way back to the queen at her words. The queen knew where his brother was? After all these years of searching, was it really that easy to find him? The thought made him so happy. As cowardly as he thought it was for Lou not to step up and take his rightful place as king of Ruvera, he did love his brother and he was looking forward to being reunited with him. "Really? You truly know where I can find him, Queen Hazel? Oh, thank you!" He grinned as he stood up, looking as happy and cheery as someone possibly could. "You do not know how happy I am to hear that. I will give you a grand reward, I assure you. Where is my brother? I wish to see him as soon as possible." He couldn't wait to see Lou, to hug him and hopefully catch the other prince up on what he had missed in Ruvera.
~~~~~~~~
The meeting. With Riley. Lou had forgotten all about it, too distracted and caught up in everything else that had been going on. He hoped it was going well, at least. Nodding at Xavier, he gestured with his hand for the guard to go ahead. "Sure. I don't mind," he said, then shrugged. "Tell him I said hi." Lou had enjoyed talking to Kuro before Ezra's speech and all the madness. He seemed like a nice guy. Honestly, Lou thought he should talk to Kuro again some time. }}

IC "He's actually a friend of my son's, saved his life not long ago. However he got injured in the process, he's staying at our best hospital," Hazel answered easily, she was more than happy to help out another royal, and...it was also a way to low key torture her son for being so disobedient. Speaking of which, Ezra had come to the realization that there wasn't anything he could do at this point and moved back to his seat, head in his hands.
-
Xavier got up and walked to the window in the room as he answered, and was immediately greeted by very fast paced, and loud Vloskan. He actually had to move the phone away from his ear as he listened to his friend go off. He glanced back at Lou though once he actually understood what Kuro was going on about. Oh...This, well this probably wasn't good. He cut Kuro off somewhere in his rant, telling him that they would have to talk later, and hung up. Looking at Lou. "So uh, we...we have a problem."

{{ Ezra looked miserable, Riley noticed, though he couldn't possibly understand why he would. This was such a happy and wonderful discovery for Riley! He'd never imagined he would ever actually find Lou; he'd figured this whole search in Vloskia would turn out to be pointless like the countless others over the years. Hearing that Lou was Ezra's friend and had saved his life, though, Riley frowned. "Louis is in the hospital?" He repeated, shocked by that information. Was he okay? How bad was it? Not only that, but... Riley turned his gaze to Ezra, glaring at him. They could discuss that privately, though. "I wish to be taken to my brother." Turning to his guards, he spoke in clear, fast Spanish and they nodded before heading to the door. "Thank you for your help, Queen Hazel. I look forward to speaking with you more in the future."
~~~~~~~~~
Lou could hear the quick, panicked Vloskan from his bed, though most of it was jumbled and he couldn't really make it out. Blinking over at Xavier, he frowned when the guard said that they had bad news? What could it be this time? "What? What's wrong?" He asked, eyebrows furrowing. Had his brother done something? Had he... Lou's heart stopped-----figuratively this time, but it might as well have been literally with the amount of dread that he was feeling. No, that couldn't be it, could it? It couldn't be. "Xavier, what happened?" }}

IC "Of course, I'm sure my son would be more than happy to escort you, seeing as how he knows where he is far better than others. Seeing as how Ezra has visited him every day since he was taken to the hospital," Hazel said, sending a smile over to her son, an all too sweet smile as if she hadn't done anything at all, and instead had just helped out a great deal, but Ezra knew, and he was not happy.
However he couldn't show it. "...Of course, I'll take Kuro as well, he probably wants to talk to the guard anyways," Ezra said, he could use some backup anyways, and Hazel had no problems with it so Ezra got up. "I assume this means this meeting is over? Well then I'll be on my way," he said, starting to the doors. Setting up Riley and Jasmine could wait for later.
-
"Okay so that was Kuro, he was at that boring meeting in replace of his mother, and apparently he had to briefly make a fool of himself for the prince's sake, and now thanks to him I guess they're gonna throw a party-but none of that was the point, the point is that the whole meeting was your brother asking them to help look for you, he had a picture, the queen recognized you," Xavier said quickly.

{{ Riley didn't smile or look at Ezra as he followed the Vloskan prince out the room. He said goodbye to the queen politely, giving her a warm smile, before he left. The queen had at least been more helpful than Ezra had been. He didn't care who took him or who came with him, though he didn't see why their presence was necessary. Once they were far away enough from the queen, so Riley didn't cause any more problems, he turned to Ezra with an angry expression. "I don't know why you lied to me, but I do not appreciate it. For as long as my brother remains in your country, he will be taken care of and guarded by our soldiers, not yours. My father would have a fit if he thoughts Lou wasn't protected well enough."
~~~~~~~~~~
Lou went cold at that, his blood freezing. Riley knew where he was and was probably on his way as they spoke. It was the one thing he hadn't wanted to happen, the one thing he'd wanted to avoid. And now there was no way to stop it. Lou was scared and nervous, this was the only thing that had ever made him feel real fear. He couldn't do anything about it, either. "He was gonna find me eventually," he whispered quietly, looking down at his hands and frowning. He wanted to scream an argue, or cry, but he didn't do any of those things. Just sat quietly. "I gotta fix this mess sooner or later. Might as well be sooner, right?" Lou was panicking, though, trying to keep calm and figure out a way to deal with everything. He didn't want to be a king. "I mean, it's not like I can run anymore. There's no where for me to go." Lou looked at Xavier with sad, scared eyes. What could either of them do but wait for the inevitable? }}

IC Ezra glared right back at him. "I was protecting him from you and your whole country. Lou is my friend and I owe him my life. He doesn't want to rule, he shouldn't have to, he should be free to live his life however he wanted, and so long as he is in my country, he will be guarded by our guards. If you insist on having yours there too, fine. But mine shall be there as well," he replied coolly. Ezra understood Lou all too well for the situation he was in. If Ezra had been able to truly avoid coming back, he would've. Despite his room and his horse, he still couldn't say he liked this place.

{{ Riley frowned, and even though he thought that Ruvera could crush Vloskia in an instant, he didn't want to cause a situation like that. "I'm glad he made friends and I am sorry he doesn't want to come back. But it isn't his choice," he said coldly as he continued to walk. "He's the heir and someone has to do it. My father insists on having him rule, for whatever reason. I would rule in Lou's place if I could, but that isn't possible." He didn't like the idea of ruling, either, but he would do it. "Our country needs a good ruler. Hopefully one that will put an end to this ridiculous plan for conquering all of South America." The trip to the hospital was rather short for him, given hiw excited he was to see his brother. "I love my brother and I want the best for him. I feel bad for dragging him back when he obviously doesn't want to come back. So I am sorry, prince Ezra, but it must be done." The hospital was nice, he had to admit that, so at least Lou was being taken care of. }}

IC Ezra stayed quiet mostly, though there was definitely an air around him that quite easily said he wasn't happy either. However once they got to the hospital, he started towards Lou's room, pausing before they got there to look back at Riley. Voice curt and to the point. "There's something you should know about Lou. He's paralyzed in his legs. He can't walk. It's a sensitive subject and I hope you know not to bring it up. I'm simply telling you because you should know," he told him before continuing to Lou's room. He would have to apologize to him for not trying hard enough. Kuro of course, followed after, keeping mostly to himself.

{{ Paralyzed? Lou was...paralyzed? That was definitely news that Riley hadn't wanted to hear, but Ezra had done the right thing by telling him. Riley could be a little insensitive at the best of times. When they reached the room, Riley knocked and, when he was given the okay to come in, he opened the door. "Lou! I've missed you! It's been such a long time-----" Riley approached Lou, who scowled at him.
Lou looked as unhappy as someone could possibly look, though it was only directed at Riley. "Don't touch me," he warned as Riley drew closer to him. "Or I'll break your arm. Actually, stay all the way over there." He wasn't in the mood to deal with Riley's nonsense.
"Aren't you happy to see me? I'm your brother!" Riley said, pouting and looking like a hurt puppy. Lou made a very rude gesture at him and he looked horrified. "You were so nice the last time I saw you!"
Lou gave him a blank look. "The last time I saw you, I was, like, twelve. A lot's changed since then. Don't expect me to treat you any different than I'd treat a stranger." }}

IC As soon as Ezra entered. He gave Lou an apologetic look that couldn't even begin to cover how bad he felt. "Lou...I'm sorry. He showed the picture and I tried to stop her from seeing it but she did and she made the connection, and I'm so sorry. I should have tried harder..." he said, looking away from the other prince. Lou shouldn't have to go back, he didn't want to and he certainly deserved the chance to live his life how he wanted, and now, Lou wouldn't get a choice. Ezra felt terrible.
Xavier stayed by the window, waving over at Kuro and the two shared a look before the latter made his way over to his friend to stand by him, since neither really felt like they had much to add into the conversation. Kuro still wasn't even sure what was going on.

The man the picked up was, at first, only gruff. After Lou introduced himself, he became vicious and furious. Lou just listened with a grimace and waited for him to finish in order to talk again.
In the ten minutes of rage and yelling that Lou's father went through, the hospital door opened quietly. Alex poked his head in, wide-eyed, and glanced around before very carefully entering and making his way over to Ezra. He looked very confused, but when he saw Riley, he kind of pieced most of it together.

"Hey," he greeted, figuring Alex probably put it all together by now. Ezra personally felt really down today, especially after all of that, and it probably showed.

Why would I care about family tradition? Send me the papers and I'll sign them, but that's it. I'm not gonna parade around the whole country."

IC Ezra was going to answer, saying likely a lot more than he had expected, but then he paused and snorted out light laughs. "You did? How?" He asked half out of curiosity and half out of slight disbelief. He was certain there was a story behind this, and he was looking forward to finding it out.
Meanwhile Kuro looked at Xavier. "So let me get this straight. Lou is now an unofficial king to Ruvera, however he was lost? Ran away? Both? Anyways, and you, the prince, and Alex knew, and you kept it from me, even though I am your best friend-" okay so maybe there was a bit of bitterness there. "Right?" He questioned and Xavier nodded. "I've spoken to more royalty this whole time and I didn't know. If I had I would have treated him with more respect than I did..." he mumbled before casting a glance over at Alex and Ezra. They looked close, though he wasn't sure of the relationship between them.

"It's all good, though. I am a driving pro."
"Hi, allow me to reintroduce myself," Lou said in a fake, overly fancy voice, even doing a dramatic bow for effect. "Name's Louis Dalanor, heir to the Ruveran throne. Nice to meet ya. Again."

He asked, hoping that at least despite the car incident, the rest of Alex's day had gone well. Maybe later they could find something to do, relax and enjoy their time together after today. Ezra still could use a good hug from Alex and he still wanted nothing more than to snuggle with Alex for hours.
"But-" Kuro started and glanced over at Xavier, who shook his head. Kuro could be a real kiss up at times, but hopefully he got that Lou didn't want any of that fancy royal treatment. It was part of the reason Xavier liked him. Kuro sighed and looked down. "Alright, though I still feel like I should have acted much better. If I had known I certainly would've treated you the same as I did prince Ezra, with the respect you deserve."

》An AU like that would be so awesome.
Alex would probably be a doctor instead. Or a doctor's apprentice.
You know, I just had a really detailed idea for this roleplay that could actually involve a Medieval AU. It might also involve some magic. I think it could be a pretty cool plot, too.《
{{ Alex was certain that that particular driver, as well as all of the other ones once they heard word of this, would never even let him near the steering wheel again. Which, okay, he kind of deserved it. He had accidentally almost injured them and totalled a car, a royal car, after all. It was to be expected. The rest of the day had definitely been better. "Well, my psychiatrist told me I'm not crazy, although she thinks I'm suffering from PTSD and my therapist thinks I could use more relaxation," he told Ezra with a smile. "You know, things like meditation and yoga and all that. So, I'm supposed to start doing that every morning." In a quieter voice, he added, "Thankfully, I don't need any medication, so that's a relief."
Lou wasn't into royalty or the royal treatment, so of course he only shrugged at Kuro's objections. "I'd rather be treated like a friend," he said honestly. "I'm not much of a prince. Or a king. It doesn't suit me." }}
