Yawning you stretched your arm in the sky, small tears formed at the corner of your eyes. You quickly wiped them again before leaning your head against the trunk behind your back, letting out a content sigh. The sky was clear, with a few clouds passing here and there, while the sun mercilessly hit everything that was exposed, forcing the animals to seek refuge in the shade of some tree or house. You didn't have this problem though. The thick foliage of the tree behind you cast a huge shadow that wrapped your figure like a blanket, letting you relax without being cooked by the sun.
Today was such a nice day.
No work, no need to help your parents with the wheat fields, no need to train. Today was a day to be lazy. With a goofy smile you brought an hand behind your head, making yourself more comfortable, while the other one sneaked towards a bowl by your side. Taking a couple of berries you popped them in your mouth, enjoy the sweet flavor. If the cooks in the kitchens discovered that you snatched a bowl of fruit from under their nose they will probably chase you down the castle for the next five days.
Your ears perked at the sound of footsteps stomping on the grass below as they approached you. You lazily opened one eyes, smile widening at the sight of who had decided to come and keep you company. "Why hello there your royalty" you eagerly said, bowing as much as you could from your sitting position. You heard a soft scoff from him and you could already imagine how he was crossing his arms at this moment, probably rolling his eyes and already regretting his decision "You know you don't have to refer to me with such title, right ____?"
No longer able to contain yourself you let out a laugh, raising up from the bow, your eyes meeting a pair of purple ones. "And why not Thistle? You and your Highness are practically brothers" The elf in front of you crossed his arms, raising an eyebrow and giving you a disappointed look, even if you could see him struggling not to smile. "Please refrain from saying those things. I'm simply the jester"
"A jester that is now learning ancient magic"
Rolling his eyes the elf put his hand on his hips, tilting his head at your relaxed position "Why aren't you at your station my dear knight? Are you slaking off once again?" he teased and you couldn't help but groan "It happened once, and it was during the first year of work. At that time I was still in my rebellious phase" you pouted, crossing your legs. Your chestplate was off, laying against the tree by your side. "But anyway, for your information today is my free day. You should know that after all"
