royal au with Prince Toasty please? 👀

of course we can have some royal au prince toast. perhaps even some prince toast with a captain of the guard mc. training. sparring. because prince toast has been made aware by the king that they aren't as well skilled in the area as they perhaps should be, considering their princely status. so, mc takes it upon themself to train him. did i also mention that they've been secretly pining for each other all this time with longing stares and accidental touches of the hand that leave them both stunted for a moment, regency romance style? yes i did plan a lot of this while watching pride and prejudice (2005). will this be as romantic? no because i am not jane austen. will i still try? yes let's go (also!! scroll to bottom for beautiful juki art to accompany the fic! u will not be disappointed) also i'm sorry but every time i typed out toasty i just thought of this one boss from the first spyro game it has plagued me through every single word of this. i keep giggling every time i type it. anyway, here's prince toast.

"You do realise you'll never improve if you don't at least practice?" Another hot summer afternoon was upon the kingdom, insatiable heat beating down with the clearest of blue skies stretching out as far as the eye could see. It would have been a perfectly pleasant and enjoyable afternoon if not for the disgustingly hot air, teeming with humidity. But there was nothing to be done except drink copious volumes of iced water and press the quickeningly damp towels to one's forehead to abate the sweat that soon collected. As captain of the guard, you'd been requested to train the prince. Growing up, he'd had shown little interest in becoming a soldier himself and had instead thrown himself into the political aspect to his position. It was rather admirable, really, the way they took so much time to care for their kingdom's people and the responsibility that had been placed in his hands to lead them once he became king. Over the course of your time at the palace, it had been difficult to work alongside him. Attending meetings and hearing them talk so passionately about how to better the family's rule or the kind way in which he would apologise if he got a little too aggressive in his tone when addressing one of the more rude advisors. All of it accumulated into these impossibly rich and deep feelings of admiration that, you realised, was actually attraction toward them. For the captain of the guard to be in love with the prince they'd sworn to protect was surely prohibited, was it not? And even if it wasn't, what were the chances they they reciprocated those feelings?

"Well maybe I'd be able to practice a little better if it wasn't so hot and you weren't trying to kill me!" Toasty shouted back, blocking a swift attack of your sword. His movements were deft, already a vast improvement from the initial training sessions they had participated in two weeks prior. Toasty, however, had yet to beat you in such a fight, their improvements not quite enough to catch you off guard nor manoeuvre past the years of experience and training under your belt. Today's session, however, was proving to challenge the undefeated title you possessed—though not as a result of Toasty's improvements. No it was a consequential factor of the summer season's scorched rays that had you fighting off the urge to call it a day and get yourself as far away from the prince as humanely possible. His hair was tied back, loose strands framing his pale complexion from the exertion and movement brought about by the rigorous regime you'd established from fay one. Sweat collected at their hairline, their neck, trailing down to the broad expanse of their chest. His blouse was loose fitting, with its upper two buttons unfastened to provide some semblance of ventilation and combat the rolling waves of heat in conjunction with their raised body heat in exertion.

Truly, the prince was a sight to behold. They wore that body-wracking hear and slowly building exhaustion like it were a badge of honour proving his multi-faceted strength as prince of the realm. Even when plagued with swear, his skin was just as beautiful, glowing eve, than had been previously imaginable. There was no quelling the assured conclusion you'd drawn up—the prince had bewitched every sense of your being. And yet, there was little more you could imagine for the two of you outside of those curious glances, scathing remarks made in jest, and far-too-close encounters wherein you realised just how closely you'd leaned in to one another in your excitement to cooperate with one another. Even now you were fighting to remain composed, the thought of losing your footing simply because the sight of Prince Toast carelessly dragging their forearm across their forehead to expunge some of the collected dampness far too mortifying to comprehend. Silent prayers crossed your mind, desperately wishing they remained as unobservant to their effect on you as they usually were.

"If you think this is me trying to kill you then you're massively underestimating what I can do," you taunted, sidestepping to bring your sword down as you watch Toasty attempt to meet it with a block.

"See? Trying to kill me!" He backed away, entirely on the defensive as he watched for your next movements. Eyes flickering over your form, scanning for a clue as to what you planned next.

"Oh, please. If you want me to hurt you just say that, your highness."

Prince Toasty's ears turned a warm pinkish shade, the colour bleeding onto the apples of their cheeks. With a quick step forward, you unleashed fully on Toasty, unrelenting as they rushed to combat your motions. Your sword clashed with his right before his face, your proximity now anything but decent for individuals of your proportion. Your eyes bored into his, gaze so heavy there was no chance you could tear away from the way in which their eyes captivated yours. Heavy breathing and the slight scratching of sword on sword resonated in your ears, the whole world falling apart save for the two of you. Neither moved. Neither could move, no matter how much you wanted to. Wanted to toss your sword aside and close that gap. But your stations as prince and captain of the guard would not allow for such a decision. Nor could such a public display of amorous affection play out in the courtyard where anyone could bear witness to the two of you. Pulse ringing in your ears, you spared a glance to Toasty's plush pink lips. Raising your gaze back up to Toasty's eyes you saw he had done the exact same.

"Caught you off guard there, hm, your highness? If this were a real fight I do believe you'd be dead right about now."

"Is this the part where you tell me I must forfeit? If so, what would you have me do, captain?" Toasty stared you down, the weight of his gaze boring into you, a burning shadow that challenged even the heat of the sun. You know you should leave. Should get yourself as far away from them as possible. And yet, you couldn't bring yourself to pull away. A distant shout from across the courtyard from some nobleman to a poor, unsuspecting member of the royal staff fractured the moment that had befallen you and Toasty. The illusion of time having frozen was shattered, falling away to reveal exactly how public the display had been. There didn't seem to be any prying eyes about, and yet, it felt as though you'd had so much of your inner self exposed. As though someone had taken to your skull and wrenched it open, tearing out all those thoughts of grazing your hand against the prince's, pulling him in close and gently taking his jaw in hand as you reach in to press a soft kiss to his lips.

Your hold on your sword went slack, the blade falling by your side as you took a few steps back from the prince. "I think we should call it here for our session today." Without giving him a chance to respond, you turned and left for the direction of the main palace building. You needed to put a great deal of distance between the two of you to quell the rapid beating of your heart, pulse too quick to think of anything, or anyone, else. Racing down hallways, passing by concerned palace attendants, you made for your private quarters. It was a path taken so often the route was permanently etched into your memory, legs carrying you while your mind tumbled.

Once you reached your room, throwing open the door without a care for the sound, you finally released the anguished sound that had built in your throat. You cursed yourself for letting things get this far, for letting yourself fall so deeply. Being so close to the prince had made it abundantly clear that this was more than a small crush; these feelings were all-consuming and dangerous. Yet, what could be done? What could extinguish the burning flames that grew and festered in the depths of your very being? A call of your name from the door pulled you from your train of thought. You didn't need to look to know whose voice it was in the doorway.

"Please, talk to me." Of course, Prince Toasty had followed after you, knowing exactly where you always went in times of stress. "What was that?"

"It was nothing. Nothing that needs to be dwelled on anymore than this. So if you could kindly leave, that would be great. I have work to do." The excuse sounded feeble, and you knew Toasty was thinking the exact same thing.

"Didn't seem like nothing to me."

"No? Well what did it seem like to you?" Your body felt tense with rising frustration and humiliation. This was the last conversation you wanted to be having and yet, there was no escaping it by the looks of things.

Toasty took broad steps, reaching you in seconds, their hand reaching for your wrist. You jolted slightly at the touch but let them continue. "It seemed like you were close to kissing me."

Your eyes widened at the admission. At the way he so casually blurted out the thought that had been plaguing you. "Well, I didn't. So."

"You should have."

You whirled around at his words, entirely stunned while they looked at you with a peaceful smile about their face. "What are you talking about?"

"You know, I thought I had made my intentions for you particularly obvious. But it seems I was mistaken." He danced a light touch on your cheek, silent for a short moment. "I am so, painstakingly in love with you, and have been for the longest while. You have captured my heart and enraptured my soul. It is yours, and has been for an eternity."

"Truly? You love me?"

"Most ardently." A beat passed before the prince leaned ever closer, a hair's breadth away from your lips, waiting for you to close the gap and tie together the string of fate that tugged at your hearts. A rush of worries flooded your mind for a split second, all instantly quashed by the desiring look of adoration upon the prince's face. Closing that gap, you felt the softness of their lips on yours, a heavenly dream just as indescribably wonderful as all those late night thoughts had imagined. The kiss was short, yet sweet. A thousand unspoken words poured into the small action alone. The gentle caress on your cheek, Toasty's thumb tracing the soft skin, was the only anchor keeping you from collapsing under the unleashed relief and tension that drained away from your shoulders. The weight of all those unspoken worries having evaporated, replaced by sheer, incandescent elation. What fate had in store for your future was unknown, yet somehow, you weren't scared anymore. You could face all of it and more with only your prince at your side.

both art pieces were done by my lovely angel juki!! pls follow her as she is such a talented artist and dear friend of mine and was sweet enough to actually create something for me for this fic. what a darling you are.
