Alma smiled gently and nodded. She also moved to get dressed, eager to start the day.
Nim purred softly. "Mmm, you're tempting me too much. We should probably get up."

After Roman finished getting dressed he waited for his wife to finish as well. After she did he went to hold the door open for her to exit the room.
Dakota snickered, “aw, but I like teasing you.” He then huffed, “but you’re right.”

Alma was soon finished dressing, joining Roman so they could leave the room and head down to the dining hall.
Nim smiled in amusement. "I think passing staff have heard enough of me by now. You make it hard to keep quiet."

Roman took hold of Alma’s hand as they walked despite it not being a formal thing to do. He didn’t really care much right now.
Dakota snickered, “well I for one could never get bored of those sounds you make~” He said before going to get dressed, “you may want to turn to a tiger.” He reminded him.

Alma blinked up at Roman, but didn't move her hand away. She smiled softly as she looked ahead again.
Nim looked away shyly before getting out of bed. Changing into a tiger, he stretched and yawned widely.

Once they reached the dinning room, Roman pulled out a seat for Alma.
Dakota finished getting dressed and decided today to take his braids out and pull his hair back into a bun with a now mix of white and dark brown hair. He had to always keep it back because it would look weird down with both sides of his head shaved.

Alma thanked Roman before sitting down, blushing as her stomach growled again.
Nim watched Dakota with a soft smile, whiskers twitching before he moved to leave the room.

As if one cue, a servant brought out two trays of food for the both of them.
When they left the room, the guards who were standing by glanced over at each other, trying not to react.

Alma thanked the servants before beginning to eat, smiling in relief.
Nim didn't spare them a glance, though he knew they were looking. He glanced over at Dakota though, smiling slightly.

Roman thanked the servants as well before dismissing them. They bowed before hurrying off.
Dakota smirked a little at him. “They probably think I was the one making all the noise. They don’t know how loudly tigers can moan~” he said quietly.

Alma ate a few bites before saying "I wonder when the other houses will arrive."
Nim sniffed, huffing quietly "W-Well, you weren't playing fair!"

“Hopefully soon.” Roman said, “I would like to get a start on all of this.” He said before beginning to eat as well.
Dakota raised an eyebrow, “oh yeah? How so?” He said, “by all means you can try topping me, but I thought you weren’t ready~”

Alma nodded in agreement, saying "Yes. The sooner we're prepared, the better."
Nim looked away shyly. "Well, now I want to a little more... but we need to attend the meeting."

Roman nodded in agreement, “I just hope everything goes smoothly and as planned... but I not going to happen.” He said while poking at his food.
“Whatever you want.” Dakota said, “just say the word and I’ll be ready~”

Alma nodded a little. "I'm sure we'll manage though. We just can't get discouraged by anything."
Nim purred softly, tail swishing gently. "Mmm, I'll keep that in mind~"

“Right. We can’t show weakness.” He said, remembinf what he father always told him when he was younger.
Dakota smiled a little, carrying on walking to the dining hall.

Alma tilted her head a little before continuing to eat, knowing Roman was right.
Nim smiled a little the rest of the way, looming around when they were let into the dining hall.

Roman continued to eat until he saw Nim and Dakota walk in, he greeted them before gesturing for them to come sit.

Nim greeted them in turn before going to find a place to settle as he asked "Have the other houses shown up yet?"

“Not yet. But we will be expecting them shortly.” Roman said as servants brought Dakota over food. They hesitated when seeing Nim. One bowed before saying, “I’m sorry, your greatness, but I’m afraid we don’t know what you eat..”

Nim tilted his head a little. "Any raw meat you have will be fine." He would eat anything for the most part, but he supposed he should stick to the food preferred of his current form. He could always change shape, but he didn't.

The servant bowed before hurrying off to accommodate him. Dakota cracked a small smile to Nim. That’s when Roman suddenly said, “Dakota.. there have been rumors that you and this guide have been seen having romantic interaction. Is this true?”

Nim didn't have any change in expression, seemingly off in his own little world when Roman spoke, but anyone who knew him knew better. Alma looked at Dakota curiously though, a little surprised.

Dakota hesitated before just saying, “no comment.” Roman snorted, “so you are. That’s quite the catch my friend.” He said with an amused smile.

Nim cracked a slightly smile, but it was barely noticeable. He thinks I'm a catch. If only Roman knew his mentor was a guide as well, then it wouldn't have so much of a "status difference" in the king's eye.

Dakota narrowed his eyes, “well too bad you think so because he’s mine! And you’re married, sire!” Dakota said, suddenly standing. Roman laughed and raised his hands, “just because I’m saying he’s a catch doesn’t mean I want him or anything.”

Alma snickered in amusement as Dakota spoke and Roman responded to his "accusations." She looked over at Nim, who watched Dakota with a hint of a fond look in hid eye.

Dakota sat down, giving his old friend a challenging look. Roman snickered and went back to eating.

Alma went back to eating as well, Nim looking over as his own food was brought out, licking his lips.

The servant nervously placed the tray down before bowing and going off again. Dakota smiled a little towards Nim. How could anyone be afraid of him? Though he guessed he just wasn’t afraid because he was a guide himself.
