"Not ready? Can you believe that? How could she say that to her only son! She is doing it on purpose I bet, absolutely. She thinks i'm papa's little spy, thats why she wont let me come."
Having run out of things to destroy on one side of his room he moves like a hurricane to the other. Paintings are defaced, tables are flipped, and glass is broken. You imagine the painting he put his fist through was someones masterpiece, lost to a royal hissy fit. Currently, your strategy is to let him exhaust himself.
"Ill show her, ill show her who she is fucking with. She will come back and find her whole tower burned to the ground! Then she will be sorry. Maybe ill burn up with it!"
Again with the self harm. You watch the prince knock over a wooden table then try to pull its legs off. Unfortunately, the wood refuses to bend to the prince's scrawny arms. Which only makes him angrier. His breathing is ragged and sweat builds quickly. His body is not used to this much exertion.
"I'll- I'll" from across the room, the prince's eyes fixate on an object behind you. An ornamental sabre rests on the wall. Despite its decorative nature, it is quite sharp. You have checked. You decide to abandon your earlier strategy, ,take a direct approach, and intercept the prince.
"My prince, wait a moment. Perhaps you should take a moment to-"
"I don't recall asking for your opinion, get OUT of my way"
"-Cool down. If you truly wish to take revenge on your mother I will help you." Truth be told, you say it just to buy time.
The prince takes a moment to calm down, ever so slightly "Will you now?"
"Yes, but not if you do something brash. Take a moment, think. What is it that you want to do? Doing something in the spur of the moment does not play to your strengths. Take a day to cool down, and then think your next step through"
"A day huh?"
"one day."
To your surprise, he relents to your suggestion. The prince presses his forehead into your chest and a moment later tears start to hit the ground.
