Milo stumbled down the street,his loud voice filling the air, it being completely out of tune and of key because of the alcohol coursing though his veins. He had been feeling like absolute shit today, and his depression had snuck up and hit him full force in the face, resulting in a drunken teenager singing love songs throughout the slums of Regalia.
"I'll swim and sail on savage seas
With never a fear of drowning
And gladly ride the waves of life
If you would marry me
No scorching sun nor freezing cold
Will stop me on my journey, sorry!
If you will promise me your heart
And love
And love me for eternity." A few people have him strange looks as he began to sing but the boy was too happy right now to even flip them of. His hair had long since been blown into his face and there were brown patches on his shirt where he had spilled his drink. After roughly his second mug of ale the boy had begun to feel the affects taking over, and by the fourth he had found himself on his rear outside the tavern, having been kicked out for trying to start a fight with another customer, who was also a noble. That hadn't worked out well for the boy and he now had a split lip and a handful of bruises here and there.
"My dearest one, my darling dear
Your mighty words astound me
But I've no need for mighty deeds
When I feel your arms around me
But I would bring you rings of gold
I'd even sing you poetry oh, would you?
And I would keep you from all harm
If you would stay beside me." In his drunken daze Milo had managed to stumble and skip himself out of the slum district and into new town. He was stood outside a familiar house,with a shit eating grin on his face,still belting out his song.
"I have no use for rings of gold
I care not for your poetry
I only want your hand to hold
I only want you near me
To love and kiss to sweetly hold
For the dancing and the dreaming
Through all life's sorrows
And delights." A candle light flickered to light and it slowly made it's way through the house until it met the front door, where Milo had sunken to the floor and was laying on his back, staring at the sky. The woman at the door let out a horrified gasp before running back inside the house, the candle abandoned on a table just inside the doorway.
"I'll keep your laugh inside me
I'll swim and sail a savage seas
With never a fear of drowning
I'd gladly ride the waves so white
And you will marry me!
Eee I'm still going, I'm done!" They returned with another person, this one seemingly male, just as the boy finished his song. He burst into a fit of giggles, the new figure letting out an annoyed sigh.
"Come on Milo buddy! What did I say about drinking when you were upset or annoyed?" They asked, reaching down to gather the child up in their arms.
"You said...you said that IIIIIII was gooood to be drinky drinking becauuuuuse I...I.." He broke of into laughter once more, squirming in the man's arms before announcing,
"I am sleeeeeepy! Nighty night Pops. Loooooove you!" Milo's head flopped forwards and a small snore escaped him as the two adults made their way back inside, the ranting of the lady being shushed by the other adult present as they lay Milo down on the sofa, leaving him to his dreams of heartbreak and sorrow, his efforts wasted that night on trying to forget life, even if it was only for a little while.
Here's another one. I'm guessing @__TheDarkLord__ knows who the man Milo claims to be 'Pops' as I just didn't want you include names because I'm still not fully okay wih writing others characters, as I don't know them as well as the player does. Boop de boop, peace out ya'll
