Circumstances Scene 36

Of course, this could only go on for so long, and instead of going for animals to throw, Chastity took a few moments to size up her approach; when she moved she got hit by a dog, but succeeded in pushing Jack down onto a pile of stuffed animals, including the big horse, which also happened to be rather soft. She stood above him in triumph, her expression gleeful. “Oh,” she said, gloating, “what now?”
“That was a good shot, I have to admit,” Jack said from his position on the floor.
“Recognize,” Chastity said, still gloating.
Jack chuckled. “I recognize.”
“Good,” she said and then sat down next to him. “Now that you recognize me as your queen, everything will be aces from now on,” she said ever so nonchalantly.
Jack raised an eyebrow. “Uh huh…”
Chastity looked at him imperiously. “Don’t take that tone with me, knave.”
Jack smirked at her. “I’ll take whatever tone I want with you,” he said.
Chastity looked at him in shock. “Such contempt!” she put her hand to her forehead dramatically. “Guards, seize him!”
Jack chuckled. “Okay, now you’re just being silly.”
“That is no way to address a queen,” Chastity said pointedly.
“Since when do queens wear diapers?”
Chastity smiled demurely. “Whenever they want to.”
“Oh really,” Jack said.
“Really.”
“Well in that case, I hereby demote you from queen to princess.”
Chastity glowered at him. “You can’t do that.”
“Oh? Says who?”
“Says me,” Chastity said.
Jack shrugged and leaned back casually. “Well, if you want to be a queen, go ahead. But they have to wear all the fancy gowns and look presentable all the time; princesses get to have more fun.”
She stuck her tongue out at him. “Who says I have to be like that? I’m the queen, so I get to make my own rules.”
Jack’s smug expression vanished. “Okay, you got me there.”
