>>19927778Elyssa Laurentine, out of her guards' uniform and carrying a satchel of her studying supplies under her arm, is on her way to the Royal Archives herself. Passing through the courtyard, she sees a familiar orange-haired woman there: buxom, petite, scantily-dressed. It's Nikki Kade, fresh from her victory at Waifus Collide wherein she stunned the world by defeating The Queen and earning the right to peruse the Royal Archives. Right away, Elyssa is amused, and a little intrigued, to see her here again. Since she's walking in the same direction anyway, she approaches Nikki.
>"Nikki Kade. I suppose after your remarkable victory at Waifus Collide, you're on your way to the Royal Archives too?"Elyssa rolls the shoulder carrying her satchel strap to adjust it.
>"I'm not on duty right now, but I can, if you like, let Her Majesty know you're here. Then, if you like, we could visit the Archives together! I've got a bit of studying of my own to do, as part of my training to become an officer."She leans in closer and speaks in a soft voice so as not to be easily overheard.
>"No hard feelings about alerting The Queen to your presence last time, I hope? After all, considering my understanding that you were a good friend of The Queen, it seemed only natural that she would want to know of your unexpected visit."
