Zain wasn't one for flowers. Their thick, sickly sweet scents and overly bright colors. It was just... Almost to much. The sun was warm on his back as the guard sat staring at the lotus float across the pond. A scowl was fixed firmly to his face as one hand absently played with the gold loop in his ear. What was he even doing? Not just sitting around like he didn't have a care in the world, but in general.
Not many people made a regular attempts on the kings life that he saw. As part of the royal guard it was Zain's duty to patrol the grounds and accompany the King on trips outside the castle walls. Not exactly exciting. The emptiness left after Alia's death was still there. Ready for something different, Zain had joined the royal guard. He had hoped that he would be kept busy enough to keep his mind off of dark and brooding thoughts. He did more as a regular mercenary. He felt like a kept pet. Well groomed and bloated off of all the rich food. It didn't settle well with Zain at all. There was an itch just under his skin that he couldn't get rid of. Eventually it would go and drive him away, back to the lonely life of a murdering mercenary.
A sudden, blinding pain in his ear, cause the guard to cry out and leap up. "What the-!" Deft fingers came into contact with soft feathers and Zain knew who had dared to attack him. He was going to kill that bird one day. Trapped in Zain's firm grip the Chatot began to shriek and wail.
"Shut up Sen!" Zain pinned the bird under his arm, though Sen took the opportunity to bite him through his tunic. "You daft bird stop that." They may be partners but that didn't mean they liked each other in the least. Sen tended to start singing at the worst possible moments, and clawed up all of his reports.
The chatot quieted and trilled curiously. Zain swung around, unaware that they'd had an audience. The guard flicked his long hair out of his face with his free hand and continued to scowl. He might have been just a little bit embarrassed at being caught in such an unprofessional setting.
