Blank Transparent Square

*Of course it’s him. You haven’t been talking ever since the breakup, and now you’re forced to for a few days. Was there really no other knights who knew sign language?*

Aiko:*A bit mad but willing to go*

*it didn’t take long for him to show up, he was always on time*
Astro: …

*looks at him*

*he had his helmet on, so she couldn’t tell if he was looking at her or not*

Aiko: :p

Astro: You should get inside the carriage. That guy who keeps throwing tomatoes at you is somehow still not caught-

Aiko:*confused but gets in*

*a tomato came towards the window, but Astro blocked it with his shield*
Astro: -___- I’ll be back- *flies off quickly*

Aiko:*in mind* ok....? .____.

*It took him about 2 minutes to capture the man. He soon came back*
Astro: This trip should take 3 days. I’d rather just fly you there, but I’m not allowed to apparently.

Aiko:*tilts head*

Astro: *speaks in sign language* [Are you ready to go?]

(Aiko can hear him she just can't speak)
Aiko: [yes,also Astro I can hear you]

Astro: [I know, I just like talking to you like this sometimes…]

Aiko:[ok]

Astro: Let’s go.
*the coachman started to move the carriage forward*

Aiko:*in mind* I wonder what his eyes look like under the blindfold
(Also how tall is Astro?)

(5’11, so close, yet so far-)
*Astro has never taken it off in front of someone else, not even while they dated*

(Aiko is like 5'3)
Aiko:*in mind* y has he Neve taken it off?

*they start walking towards the gate, and citizens waved towards them*

*waves*

*Before they get to the game, the queen, Aiko’s mother, walks to the carriage. Astro gave her an awkward look before opening the carriage for her.*
Queen: Hello dear, I’m just stopping by to check in on you

*nods shakily*

Queen: I’m sorry that you have to leave under these circumstances, but it’s very important. If there was a knight that was available, we wouldn’t have put you in this position.

Aiko:*wants to hide in Astro's wings*

Queen: I love you, okay?

Aiko:*shaking*

Queen: What’s wrong, dear?-

Aiko:[just cold mother]

Queen: Oh, you’ll be okay. I promise.
Astro: We should be going now.
Queen: Okay, bring her home safely please. *hugs Aiko and gets out*

Aiko:*A bit shaky*

Astro: *looks in the carriage* Do you need anything?

Aiko:*shakes head*

Astro; Let’s get going then.
*they wait for the gate to open for them*

(*insert jeporty music* /j)
Aiko :p

Astro: :/
Coachman: *yawns*
*more Jeopardy music*

(LOL imma
Aiko:[were the heck is the music comming from]
Me:*Standing in the corner with a speaker* uhhhhh....)
Aiko: :p

*the gate finally opens, and they begin moving forward*

Aiko:*looks back before looking at Astro*

Astro: *sighs, then continues*

Aiko:*on mind* y hasn't he taken the blindfold off? Is it cause of the scar on his face

*the blindfold didn’t seem to affect his vision much*

Aiko:*in mind* y does he hide his eyes?

Astro: *walking silently*

Aiko:*looks around*

*the coachman was whistling*

Aiko*in mind* why did he leave me....was I to clingy...was I- (Ah yes Aiko having a panic attack)

Astro: *notices* Stop, coachman.
Coachman: But we just started.
Astro: I know.
Coachman: ^shrugs and stops the carriage*

Aiko:*frantically* [I'm ok Astro Im ok]

Astro: *goes inside the carriage* [We both know that you’re not okay.]

Aiko;*giveanhim a shaky hug*

Astro: ._. *hugs her back with his arms and wings* It’s not your fault, it’s mine. You’re going to be okay.

*tilts head*

Astro: *surrounding her with his wings*

*confused*

Astro: *lets her go* You’ll be okay. If you need anything, just knock in the door*

*nods*

Astro: *goes outside the carriage* Let’s keep going.
Coachman: Don’t stop too much, we need to get as far as we can before dark. *continues moving the carriage*

*fell asleep at some point*

Astro: *notices, smiles, and continues walking*

Aiko:*in mind* what did he mean by it was him and not me?

*they continue walking for an hour, then stop to eat*

*wakes up confused*

Astro: *opens the carriage* [Lunch time]

*hops out*

Astro: *holding a basket of food* Pick which one you like.

*tilts head confused*

Astro: *opens the basket, showing different options she could pick for lunch*

(What is in the basket?)
Aiko:*Takes something random*

*it was a bunch of sandwiches, each one different*

*Takes a ham sandwich*

Astro: *takes a turkey sandwich and takes off his helmet*

Aiko: :p

*he started eating, still not taking the blindfold off*

Aiko:*half tempted to rip ot off but knows he'll probably get mad if she does*

Coachman: *takes 2 sandwiches* …
Astro: …

Aiko:*noms sandwich*

Astro: does the same*

Aiko:*nom nom nom*

Astro: Have you been doing okay?…

Aiko:*nods* [how about you Astro....have u been ok?]

Astro: [No.] *finishes eating*

Aiko:[u want hug?]

Astro: I’m not sure it’ll help.

*hug*

Astro: … *hugs her back out of respect*

*accidentally fell asleep*

Astro: …

*zzz*

Astro: *carries her to her carriage and lays her down there*

*lays in the carage*

Astro: *gets out* Let’s keep going.
Coachman: You remember what you’re supposed to be doing, right?
Astro: …I get it, just go.
*they continue on while she slept*

*wakes up at some point*

*she heard the sound of fighting*

Aiko:*flinches*

*the sounds continue*

*hides*

*it becomes quiet*

*scared*

*fortunately, Astro walks in. He was just checking if she was still asleep*

*shaking*

Astro: [Don’t worry, it was just some bandits. I took care of it.]

[U ok?]

Astro: *nods*

Aiko:[good] :3

Astro: [We should continue on.]

Aiko: :3

Astro: You don’t have to worry about me, by the way. As long as we’re safe, you’ll be fine.

Aiko:*Lil happy noise*
(Aiko may be mute but can make smol sounds)

Astro: *waves and exists the carriage* Lets keep moving until sunset.

Aiko: :p

*they continue on until the sun begins to set*

Aiko:*cute af for no reason*

Astro: *setting up a campfire*

Aik:*wants to help*

Astro: [I know you won’t stop asking until I let you help-]

Aiko:*being stinking adorable*

Astro: *sighs* [You can help]
