her_mouse_jesty | 55 (Mickey's Surprise Party)

[Minnie has purposely turned the Video on today, pausing in her Olivine chores to talk to her friends.]

Hello, everyone! I hope you're all having a magical day! My little home is in tip-top shape again, and it sounds like things are peaceful once more in the land of Johto and Kanto.

Now, the real reason why I'm calling is that thanks to my dear friends Ventus and Xion, I've realized even though I've almost been here for two years, I still haven't told people the real, detailed story of how my darling Mickey and I met! I thought it'd be a nice little story to share.

In my home world, the Disney Kingdom, I was the princess. I was expected to marry another member of royalty, or at least someone with a high status. I also had many knights to protect me and the kingdom... although back then, we called them musketeers. One day, I was nearly killed by a falling safe! I was so frightened that I demanded the Captain of the Musketeers, Pete, to specially assign me bodyguards until I could feel safe again.

So he brought me three musketeers to meet and approve of. First was Donald Duck, who would later became the royal mage. Then it was Goofy, who would later take Pete's place as Captain. Then... the shortest one between them, the most handsome man I'd ever seen in my life, he stepped forward... Our eyes locked, and... and...

[She dreamily sighs, leaning back so far it's really only a miracle she's still standing... And, uh... she appears to have drifted off. You may need to snap her back to reality. For those interested in Action, Minnie was supposed to be sweeping front porch of her home, but got so caught up in reminiscing that she's dancing with her broom, pretending it's her king. Walt the Charizard is napping on the sand nearby.]

Sure, I'd love to.

Please, come inside! I'll make you comfortable.

[She heads for the door. Walt the Charizard, groggily lifting his head, growls lightly. Whoooo dares enter...]

Oh--a-alright.

[please don't eat me, mister charizard...i am just a scrawny nerd.]

[... Eh. No threat. He lays his head back down.

Inside, Minnie leads him to take a seat. There are some Pokemon here and there, either cleaning up or playing around - Magmar, Lopunny, Azumarril, and others.]

Would you like anything to eat or drink? Our home is your home.

You really don't have to go to any trouble, I'm fine.

If you say so.

[She sits besides him.]

Back home, I was once a princess of the Disney Kingdom. My kingdom was guarded by a special brand of knights... we called them musketeers. The Captain of the Musketeers, Pete, wanted to take my throne, and hatched a very wicked scheme to get rid of me. I was unaware, but I wanted bodyguards, because I had a suspicion someone was after me... I just didn't know who.

He chose three men to be my guards... Donald Duck, Goofy, and... Mickey Mouse.

Sounds like a regular fairytale sort of thing already.

Heeheehee!

[Goodbye, dignified image. She's kicking up her heels and giggling like a schoolgirl.]

It really does, doesn't it? I knew it was love the first moment our eyes locked! We were meant to be together... and it was absolutely forbidden! How much more romantic can you get than that!

[Otacon laughed quietly at that himself, looking amused.]

I wouldn't know much about what's romantic or not, but that does sound nice.

Unfortunately, the romance had to wait... My lady-in-waiting came in at the wrong moment, as she was getting me snacks. The boys thought she was trying to hurt me, since she had a butter knife, and nearly attacked her... at least they were enthusiastic about the job.

...

[He barely stifled a laugh at that, coughing into his hand to try to hide it.]

Well...they were trying, if nothing else.

[She smirks, perhaps she caught it, but relaxes.]

Daisy and I then went out for a carriage ride. but during the ride, some horrible goons attacked us, and Daisy and I were kidnapped! But of course the brave musketeers found us, and got rid of those terrible men in a great battle. Then I knew Mickey was the one... he made me laugh.

You're lucky. It's nice to have someone that can make you laugh--I don't know about anyone else, but I think that's important.

It's very important! It can tell you so much about a person, and the life you'll have with them... a life without laughter is hardly a life at all.

Yeah...you're right. You're definitely right.

... Are you all right? Did I say something wrong?

[that icon looks pretty sad dude :( ]

[Otacon is a very sad individual. :|]

Oh--no, sorry. I'm fine.

... If you say so. But you can tell me anything you'd like... at any time. I'm a good listener.

[She pats his hand sympathetically.]

...Has anyone ever told you you're much kinder than a lot of people?

That's certainly a first!

You really are. Not that I haven't met nice people before, but you definitely do seem to make a point of it.

I don't know about that... but, well, I think my husband said it best - "Helping others always comes before helping yourself."

I think the same thing, actually.

That's wonderful! Then perhaps you're kinder than a lot of people too!
