Sooooo

Empress for a day @smartylina-- how'd you like being ALL POWERFUL, large and in charge, the BIG KAHUNA for a day, hm? --Not nearly as easy as I make it look, is it?"

[boombambaby]

Oh look, he's beaming! Pressing a hand against his cheek, dopey smile curling his lips. Yep-- he missed those kisses!

Oh, Kuzco!

You look good too while doing something so sweet like giving me flowers 💐

thank you ❤️ kisses him on the cheek.

[boombambaby]

See @smartylina? Notice how I DIDN’T mark down TRIP because I thought it said strip something else!

I know what you’re up to. I see you.

Makes the ‘I’m watching you’ motion with his fingers.

I'M TRYING THIS.

[boombambaby]

[ @smartylina - continued from here so we don’t spam that blog lol ]

UH HUH. A LIKELY STORY.

I wasn’t saying that over THAT, I was saying that because, uh . . . that servant came back with the meat mug I ordered for dinner!

Yep.

That’s totally the reason for the yipee. Not because of those pictures, pfft.

[boombambaby]

Hearing Malina call him by his title will NEVER get old, regardless of how many times he hears it. Watching her bow, with that little smirk on her face makes him feel warm all over, and he wonders for the hundredth time how he ever got so lucky; to be standing here, getting sassed by the single greatest, most perfect girl in the entire Empire-- it's a dream come true for him.

Had you asked him a few years ago, Kuzco would have laughed at the thought of somebody telling him he eventually finds someone so perfectly suited to him, who matches him quip for quip, is able to keep him in line, isn't afraid to speak her mind and gives as good as she gets. Now however, It's difficult to imagine a time in his life when Malina wasn't here, challenging him to do better and making fun of him when he Royally screws up. Heh. Get it? 'Cause I'm a royal! " Malina, please! No need for the formalities. " He teases, holding up a hand for her. Not that the bow was serious in the first place.

" Your lips say no, but your body in my quarters, in MY palace says. . . yes! SO we'll just have to see if we can change that. Can't have my future Empress going against the status quo! "

Time appears to come to a standstill as she closes the distance between them, chestnut eyes carefully darting over her face in an attempt to memorize every little detail that he can find. Her laugh lines, her stress wrinkles (of which she has many! see; STRESS MONSTER.)-- it's all perfect to him, and he wants to remember forever just how happy the two of them are in this moment. ' Can't believe I ever thought I needed a potion to make her perfect because of a pimple. Yeesh. '

Lost in his thoughts, and the unabashed memory of turning her into a toucan, Kuzco hums a soft " hm ? " at her question before finally realizing what she actually said. " Oh! Of course I am! Pfft, when am I ever NOT ready to face them ? Let's go give these peas-- er, my lovely public, a show ! " With that, he holds out an arm to lead her out into the fray of what's sure to be a chaotic first experience 'behind the scenes' for one of these big ceremonies.

The next few hours pass in a whirlwind of activity, with Kuzco being pulled in all directions as he prepares for his speech. Try as he might, the two of them are separated when Kuzco is whisked away to meet with the village leaders-- and Pacha, who knows about his surprise, and reassures him several times not to freak out. (which we all know he NEVER does ! )

Praising the rising sun from atop the Sun God's Temple for returning to grant them a bountiful season after the long winter months doesn't take as long as one might think, and before he knows it the ceremony is coming to a close. His voice rings out with the final command of the ceremony, as Pacha hands him the chalice full of chicha he is to spill inside the temple, and then disappears into the crowd to find Malina and his family.

" PHEW, you know; no one tells you how much HARD WORK is involved in summoning the Sun God to come back every year, am I right ? " With the final joke to close out the ceremony, the surrounding peasants cheer and begin to greet one another , shaking hands and sharing kisses and wishes for a rewarding planting season. " Now that I'm done with all of that, and before we all head off to party like it's 1442-- I have one last, very important matter to bring to the Kingdoms attention. "

A hand is cupped over his eyes, shielding them from the sun as he searches the crowd. Pacha, Chicha and the kids are standing right beside Malina and her family, and he grins when he finally lays eyes on her. " Oh Malinaaaaa, the Emperor has a very, very important question to ask you! "

Malina smirks at his response. It's so easy to make him agree with her when she teases him, but while it's so fun, she thinks she should stop and give him a break. "Fine, just because you ask for it. Consider it as an... innocent threat if you dare to be in your worst behavior." Hmph, well in that case; she loves to pushy other buttons of his too.~ Well, if she's being honest, Malina can see herself gladly helping Kuzco doing all of the preparations for this festivity for years to come. Of course, she knows he'd let her if she asked so she'll be doing him a big favor. And of course she'll definitely write the biggest article of the whole event for hopefully other kingdoms and villages to see! Malina knows she's giving Kuzco too much attention and she ought to stop staring at him but it was impossible, him taking his emperor duties seriously is so hypnotic, she can watch him all day. Aw, she'd have been amused if he ever commented on her remark. What a shame, but good for him. His secret is still safe. She bows slightly. "It is my pleasure, your highness and I'm not praising the sun AND YOU! I told you I'd never do that, sweetie." Maybe she's just too focused on the festival and other things, but she doesn't notice how nervous Kuzco is. Little did she know he had something big planned. She had learned already that he sometimes is so good at hiding his true feelings and today is no exception. Especially when he's flirting shamelessly with her yet again. She blushes scarlet at his compliment for her while she walks a bit closer to him once she feels his fingers touching her. Malina smiles softly back and almost purrs at how sweet he is. She raises a hand to caress his cheek. "Took you long enough to say that! But... well- you're the perfect compliment for this beautiful peasant girl too." She replies and lowers her hand, looking elsewhere for a few seconds and fights the urge to kiss him on the cheek or the lips. Damn right she would have! Imagine how humilliated she'd feel if she looked hideous. She looks at him again and tilts her head, her smile never disappearing. "So, are you ready to face your adoring fans, dear?"

Kuzcarnival time!

[Starter for @smartylina] "Wait, wait, wait-- go back." Matching blank looks meeting him, council members and village leaders alike chancing a glance at each other across the table at the surprise interruption. After a moment, one finally speaks up once more. "Uh, the funding--" "No! Not that, relax Motto you'll get your money-- the other thing. About the carnival?" Kuzco stands so abruptly his chair almost tips backwards on him and plants his hands on the table top, leaning forward in interest. "Oh, it's the time of year again for fundraising to begin, so the Kuzcarnival is coming back to--" That's it! The Carnival! The empty straw he's been chewing on out of boredom during the meeting falls from his mouth, and Kuzco beams as he slaps a hand down against the table and slides out from behind the table. "Meeting adjourned, or -- whatever. I've got some very important business to attend to elsewhere." He spins back around to shoot finger guns at everyone in attendance, all the while backing out of the door. "Thanks for coming, don't forget to visit the gift shop on the way out!" Then, he's gone-- completely missing the exasperated facepalms of his council members, and the confused stares of the village leaders he leaves in his wake. / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / Knock knock knock knock knock. "Come on, come on-- " He's panting, hands falling to press against his knees where he's bent over trying to catch his breath in front of the modest wooden door of Malina's hut. Ordinarily his robes are lightweight and cool-- breezy even, where it cuts off at the knees-- but today they stick to his sweaty skin, sweltering and oppressive regardless of his much he pulls at the neck of his tunic. His crown teeters dangerously atop his head the further he bends over, and Kuzco straightens just enough to keep it from falling off while he waits for an answer.

[ @smartylina liked for a starter from here ! ]

Kuzco peers at the unassuming little hut from further down the road, dutifully ignoring the confused stares, and conspiratorial whispers of passing villagers as he hides behind a llama-drawn rig-shaw filled with hay. From the looks of things, the coast appears to be clear. The front door is closed, the llamas are all grazing in the shade of a tree and there's no sign of anyone outside.

He nearly jumps out of his robes when the llama suddenly begins to move, startling him so badly that he almost trips and falls down the hill. "Sorry Emperor Kuzco!" The peasant calls out, and Kuzco glares at the back of his head as he attempts to play it off, brushing his hands against his tunic and setting off towards the hut in question.

Delicious smells linger in the air the closer he gets, the tell-tale scent of baked pastries and. . . is that Kuzcake? leading him by the nose like something out of a cartoon. He's starving by the time he finally makes it to the window, and he props himself up with a grin, excited to see his favorite hottie standing at the stove. "Aww, are you making me a Kuzcake? And it's not even my birthday." He teases, with a playful batting of his lashes.

It's eerily similar to a previous encounter they had, in this very window and over. . . a similar subject matter. Here's to hoping she'll take it better this time around, it took him a week to get all of that frosting out of his hair. "Soooooo remember that date we had planned for tonight? I'm not going."

[boombambaby]

Hey Kuzcoteers, look how excited mrs. hottie pants @smartylina is to go trick or treating with the KUZMEISTER this year~ !

i was taking screen shots and paused here and i couldn't help myself sdhfbsdfdsjf.

[boombambaby]

Told ya she liked me from the get go. I mean, how could she NOT?

It’s ME we’re talking about.

Right @smartylina ?

When I was younger and watched "The Emperor's New School", this was my favorite shot of the entire opening song. They are both being so playful and flirty with each other. Kuzco teasingly trying to sneak at Malina's work while she covers said work, just as equally teasing. It's just so cute.

[boombambaby]

@smartylina is the second, third and fourth greatest person in this entire world.

— behind me as the first greatest person ever, of course.

. . .

. . . . . . What, you really think I would be at the end of some list? Pfft.

[boombambaby]

@smartylina asked: 🍬

[ Taken from here! ]

knock knock knock knock knock knock knock knock.

When the door finally opens, it's to the sight of Kuzco's excited grin hiding behind an Yzmaween mask, which he lowers shortly after to reveal said bright grin, which widens at the sight of his favorite hottie.

"Trick or treat! Give me fudge, or I'll fill your hut with sludge!"

He orders, holding his trick or treat gourd up with his free hand for her offering.

[boombambaby]

Before I can turn you into my fancy pet, let me have some fun with you, your highness!

Noise from the m!a list 😈

I told you, I will bite through your purse strap if you try to turn me into a chinchilla! No matter how cute they are. Oh Inti. This should be. . . interesting.

[boombambaby]

HAH!

THANK. YOU.

SEE @smartylina! We're on to you!

I almost never disagree with the canon in the show but I'm so against Kuzco being a snorer. Kuzco doesn't snore. Malina is the secret snorer😡😡

[boombambaby]

[ @smartylina Continued from HERE! ]

"Change my posit-- OHH. Is that why I keep waking up on my side!? I thought it was because a certain SOMEONE stole the blankets AGAIN and kicked me over.

CLEARLY this is a plot to make everyone think I'm . . . eugh." Shudders. ". . . Relatable, to my peasant followers."

"Hey! At least YOU finally admit it, little miss POTATO QUEEN."

[boombambaby]

If you wanna see a Disney Princess, look no further than THIS hottie hot hottie-- MALINA!

She's got perfect hair, perfect eyes, she's smart, she can talk to squirrels and she keeps Kuzco in check, somehow.

BOOM. Instant Disney princess. Am I right, @smartylina?
