“Big brother!”

Rona dashed across the marble tiles of the audience chamber, skirts and curls flying, her face a picture of consternation..

Eugene scampered in her wake, equally anxious in his quieter way.

...

Raj flinched back a step, then snapped, “Stop, you’ll muss my new dress coat!” to cover his weakness.

It mostly worked — Rona jerked to a halt and glared, forgetting her fear. “Is that all you can think of,” she demanded, “when dear Lady Shirayuki is in danger?”

...

Raj winced, feeling a cold sweat break out on his brow. He snatched a lace handkerchief from his pocket and buried his nose in it, inhaling the astringent scent. 

Sakaki had liberally dosed it earlier that day, after delivering the news.

“What are you doing here, anyway?” Raj asked his sister, voice muffled. “You’re too young to preside at criminal cases.”

“We were waiting for you,” Eugene put in, taking advantage of a momentary lull as outrage reduced Rona to squawking. “Big brother, what will we do?”

...

A pounding in his temple replaced the dizzy fit. Raj lowered the handkerchief hastily.

Where had Sakaki gone off to, just now in the middle of a crisis?

The twins were staring at him, like oversized kittens who didn’t know what to do with the mouse they had cornered.

He summoned his bossiest voice. “You two! Keep quiet and let the adults handle these matters.”

...

As Raj spoke, his eyes raked the room, searching for assistance.

There! Clusters of soldiers and advisors stood around the throne, talking in low voices and pointing at maps.

His father was not present, of course, but there was Sakaki, with that dratted gray cloak blending in perfectly with the subdued field uniforms.

...

“Sakaki!” he boomed. “Come here at once and explain the situation to m—er, these two.”

His attendant bowed assent and approached, serious as always but with a new line creasing his brow. 

“Your Highnesses,” he hailed the young prince and princess respectfully.

...

“Oh, Sakaki!” Rona burst out. “It’s so dreadful—how will we ever save her?”

Sakaki paused. “I believe the intent is to recapture her, princess,” he said carefully.

“No, no —” Raj waved his handkerchief. “It’s all a muddle —she’s gotten it into her head that this means trouble for our friend, for Lady Shirayuki.”

He shot his attendant a sharp glance as spoke, gauging for himself whether Rona’s fears might have found any basis in the latest reports.

Sakaki looked serious —as always.

...

“Please do not upset yourself, Your Highness,” he said. “It is difficult to speak with certainty, as Lady Shirayuki’s exact whereabouts since her wedding are unknown—”

Rona gasped, her eyes filling with tears.

“---but there is every reason to believe that she remains in Clarines.”

...

“So?” Raj demanded, forgetting that he was supposed to know all of this already. “So what?”

“Therefore,” continued the implacable Sakaki, “there is little reason to fear. The trail appears to lead east.”

Raj let out an explosive breath. Rona sniffled; Eugene was patting her arm.

“Clarines lies to the north,” Sakaki added.

“We know that!” Raj snapped.

Sakaki smiled.

...

Glowering at him, Raj turned to his sister. “There, you see, enough nonsense—it is all a matter of patrols and search parties and no danger at all. Now go find something to play with.”

Rona stopped sniffing and gave him a look of deep disgust. “Eugene and I are too old for games,” she said, lifting her nose.

Then she marched away, her brother at her heels.

...

As soon as they were out of sight, Raj rounded on his attendant. “Now, tell me the whole truth, at once! What is being done? Have they sent messengers to Wistal? Who is standing guard over Lady Shirayuki?”

Sakaki bowed. “It is as I said to the young prince and princess, Your Highness—no one knows where the lady may be found.”

Sakaki did not add that dispatching troops across the border to Clarines without prior notice would not be smiled on as a diplomatic gesture, particularly as the matter involved a straightforwardly domestic case of a criminal tried, charged, and suffered to escape, all within the royal jurisdiction of Tanbarun.

...

Raj groaned and covered his face with the handkerchief again.

The thought of his friend in danger again, at the mercy of that devil of a woman, sent hot and cold flashes down his spine.

Worse, though he would never admit it out loud, he worried that in no small part, this whole mess might be his fault.

...

After they had secured the pirate ship and taken its crew prisoner, Raj hadn’t troubled himself to supervise. There were courts for that sort of thing, with their magistrates and bailiffs and prison wardens.

It was one thing for the crown prince to concern himself with bandits and ambassadors, but as for the boring business of trials and prosecutions, that was quite another matter.

The great might of the crown reigned; there were laws in the books, people read them, justice was served, and no one complained.

...

Now, suddenly, he found that comfortable vision of life upended.

Ages ago, Sakaki had wanted approval for some sort of prison transfer—why not? What was all the fuss about, if the thing was done properly?

As it turned out, the thing hadn’t been done properly at all.

In spite of whatever routine precautions one presumably undertook when undertaking such dangerous tasks, something had gone amiss—that is, someone had gone missing.

As Sakaki had put it to him that morning, quite succinctly: “The prisoner has escaped.”

Umihebi, the pirate queen, was free.

...

She had slipped through their fingers, as oily as her name and twice as fearsome — a nightmare Raj thought they had all put to rest that day in the dank caves festering in the underbelly of his kingdom.

He shuddered.

“What does she want, Sakaki?” he demanded, seeking something to turn his thoughts away from the memory of her poisonous looks. “Why east—what could she possibly want out there?”

...

Sakaki hesitated then admitted, “The lands to the east are no friend to Tanbarun, Your Highness. We received the report from a patrol troop. They are stationed at the border now, on guard for her return.”

“At the border?” Raj echoed. “On guard? What are they doing, lazing about there?”

A sense of relief and purpose suffused him. There were guards; they had her in their sights. The nightmare was as good as ended.

He drew himself up and waved a finger. “Order them after her at once, to the ends of the earth if need be!”

...

Before replying, Sakaki paused to scan the usual hiding places, assuring himself that Rona and Eugene hadn’t lingered to eavesdrop.

Then he said, “They cannot, Your Highness.”

“What!” yelped Raj. “What do you mean!”

“We have no such treaty arrangements with the lands to the east. Their border guard has refused to grant our soldiers passage.”

...

“But–but–letters! Yes, a letter to the prince of Clarines.” 

Sakaki bowed. “A messenger was dispatched this morning.” 

“Ah–ah, good. Then…” Raj began to pace. 

...

On the third turn, he stopped and snapped his fingers. “I have it! The Lions! Fetch my writing desk — I will write to…” 

He trailed off. Sakaki hadn’t moved. 

“Already done?” Raj asked faintly. 

Sakaki nodded.

...

Raj’s shoulders slumped, his energy melting away. “Then you mean—”

Sakaki lifted his hands. 

“There is nothing to be done, Your Highness. We can only wait.”

not the only indian character working for the british monarchy!! FREE SHAAN FREE MY PEOPLE RISE RISE RISE

[kitxkatrp]

[ HEIR ] muse A is the leader of the nation and has not been able to produce an heir (feel free to specify reason), muse B has been selected by their doctors and council to try and bare their children. (Dianne & Raj)

He knew full well why Dianne had been chosen. Even long before his Father's death, they had been close. But still, things were complicated with her alignment with another nation--

But...

It had been decided that having a child together would be a way of creating a treaty between their two nations.

Raj still didn't know how to feel about it. He loved her, he really did, but he had been content with never really acting on that love. He didn't feel like he had the right to ask anything like this of her--

And yet...

Here they were.

"...I'm..really sorry that you got dragged into this." He really believed that she wanted nothing to do with this...

Snow White with the Red Hair: *has several dashing men*

*gives me a scene with Prince Raj, episode 1’s villain, floundering around like an idiot and trying to avoid running into people that might put him in a situation*

Me: you. You’re my favorite.

“The future’s really big. It has a lot of stuff in it. Why don’t we worry about right now first, and see what that gets us?”

Quick question.

What trope is this character and why do I love it so much??

[tamlins-stories-and-poems]

Still a bit behind on my draw-tober, but here’s one of the best boys! Written by @seananmcguire !

[silalcarin]

So about how Britain has never actually apologized for this in the 104 years since this happened.

Elizabeth II called it a "moment of sadness" and a "difficult episode in our past" in 1997, but didn't actually apologize.

William and Catherine deliberately chose to literally not visit the memorial site in 2016.

David Cameron and Theresa May both called it a "shameful event" in 2013 and 2019, respectively, but didn't actually apologize.

Seriously, Brits, how fucking hard is it to apologize, to say "I'm sorry", for murdering 1500 Brown people — Brown men, women, elderly people, and children?

Oh, I know exactly why it's so damn hard for Brits to say "I'm sorry" regarding this tragedy — because the people who were murdered were Brown, so obviously to Brits, Brown people don't deserve an apology.

Stupid fucking colonizers. I don't even give a fuck if I offend any Brits on here; your country owes India and the people of India a goddamn sincere apology. Own up to it already.
