Uh, wait politely for the king to approach before you make your formal request for aid. Don't want to annoy him by being rude or joining in with his wife's nagging.

be sure to curtsy

Don't curtsey if you're already sitting at the table. The proper etiquette when ordered by the queen to sit before the king does, is to look up at him like a deer caught in headlights.

Do you know this guy?

>King Catalina slowly turns around

King Catalina: ... Yes dear? I'm sorry, my migraine is acting up again.

Queen C.: Oh, I am so sorry darling but we have an emergency!

>King Catalina perks up, still in pain but more alert

King C.: Please, go on, dear.

Queen C.: Actually, I think Princess Amielle should explain what's going on...

>King Catalina looks across the tea table and notices Amielle, perking up even more and smiling widely.

King C.: Amielle! My Goddaughter! How are you, dear?

>King Catalina hobbles over and gives her a huge hug while Princess Amielle turns blue from such a strong hug.

Princess Ami: I-I'm g-good, Your Highness...

King C.: So, please, tell me what brings you here?

>So, please, tell me what brings you here?
Well, there's this teensy weensy violent raccoon invasion of my home.

Well go ahead, tell 'em why you're here.
Don't stutter.

You're here to hit on I mean hottie I mean seek help of the princes I mean the raccoons. Against the raccoons! Help from the king against the raccoons! The raccoon guys attacked. Not sure if they won or not.

> Princess Amielle takes in a deep breath and begins to talk very loudly and quickly.

Princess Amielle: KING, YOUR HIGHNESS, I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED BUT WE WERE ABOUT TO BEGIN OUR "WONDERFUL WORLD OF ANIMALS" PARTY WHICH, AS YOU KNOW, IS HELD EVERY 5 YEARS AND AS I'M COMING DOWN THE STAIRS, YOU'LL NEVER BELIEVE IT BUT THERE WERE DOZENS OF RACCOONS -deep breath- IN THE PARTY HALL FIGHTING MY FATHER, KING MORTIMER, AND SOME OF OUR ROYAL GUARDS AND HE TOLD ME, "AMIELLE, GO ACROSS THE KINGDOM OVER TO CATALINA AND ASK FOR HELP!" SO I RODE MY LOYAL STEED AS FAST AS I COULD AND NOW I'M HERE AND PLEASE HELP!

> Amielle pants loudly, out of breath, but relieved to finally be in King Catalina's presence.

King C: My dear Princess, I will gladly help you. Let me confer with my Generals about the situation and we'll see what we can do.

> Amielle sighs in relief.

PA: Oh, Your Highness, I am very grateful and my family and our kingdom thank you for all of your help. You have no idea what a-

> Princess Amielle's speech is cut short by something tall, dark, and handsome walking behind King Catalina.

King C: A-Amielle? Are you okay?

Is it... the Raccoon prince?

Who is it and just how hot is he?

Rate his hotness on a scale of 1 to prince

It's... THE MOST BEAUTIFUL VASE YOU'VE EVER SEEN!

> Princess Amielle tries to contain herself but cannot. She whispers to herself, "¡Dios meow!"

King Catalina: Oliver? Is that you, boy?

> The King asks as he turns his head. A tall, slim, Siamese cat slinking behind the King and turns towards them nonchalantly.

Oliver: Sup?

try not to drool

Whoah, pull yourself together! You don't want to make a bad first impression! There will me time for romance after the more urgent things are taken care of.

>>550135
He kind of looks like a tool.

>>550153
Yeah I agree
Total tool
Come on Amielle you don't sense it? Don't let his looks fool you.
He's a poser.

Now get back to saving your Mom and Dad before they died because you got distracted by a tool.

Oh come on, give the boy a chance to make an impression before you judge him a tool. He's literally said one word to you, you can't judge him based on that.

That being said, you should calm down. No sense in crumbling your biscuits when he's the one acting cool.

Too bad you lost that chainmail outfit.

Be cool, girl. He'll respect that.

She can still impress dudes in a dress, yo.

(whispers to the voices in her head, "OMG YOU GUYS SHUT UP HE IS LIKE SOMETHING OUT OF TIGER BEAT MAGAZINE.")

> Prince Oliver, noticing that there is a pretty lady-cat in the hall, sheepishly walks over to the King and Princess, blushing a bit.

Prince Oliver: I, uh, I'm sorry, father, I didn't realize we had, um, company.

King Catalina: -Ahem- Well, uh, it was unannounced. It appears our allies in Pytge are being attacked by the Procyon Raccoons. Oh, and this is Princess Amielle, daughter to King Mortimer. I imagine you haven't seen her in a few yearsblahblabhblahblahbalhh....

> The King says a few more things but they drown out as Oliver reaches his paw out to you.

Oliver: Pleased to make your acquaintance, fair princess. I am Prince Oliver, eldest son of the King over there if you, uh, don't remember me...

Oh god he's BLUSHING

YOU HAVE HIM IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND now just act natural and not like a spaz

He's blushing! He likes you!

Take his hand and return the introduction, keep your cool and try not to become completely flustered. And of course you remember him!

Give him your hand to kiss!

>>550189
No, kiss HIS hand like he's supposed to kiss yours.

Then get confused at everyone's reaction, go "Wait, isn't this what I'm supposed to do when offered a hand?"

>>550179
Princess, what I am going to say is very important: No second impressions.
Just stay calm and be polite.

>>550189
Seconding this.

>>550210
Thirded.

I'd say 'also, smile' but that doesn't seem to be a problem.

> Princess Amielle gingerly wipes the drool off her chin and gives her paw to Prince Oliver.

Prince Oliver: Of course I remember Ami! How could I forget such a charming young lady?

> The prince takes Amielle's hand and kisses it. Amielle blushes but tries to keep her composure.

Princess Amielle: A pleasure to see you again, Oliver~

> King Catalina rolls his eyes and puts his paws on his hips.

King Catalina: Alright you two, we need to get down to business. Do you know anything else about the attack, Amielle? The Raccoons have never been on good terms with either of our Kingdoms but for them to attack? Something is fishy here.

> For a moment you forgot about the real reason you came to Catalina.

You just know that it was so incredibly sudden. One moment EVERYTHING was fine. People were preparing for the ball, you had a nice conversation with your mother, she went away, you go downstairs and BAM! Dad's fighting racoons. No alarm, all very sudden. They reached the king as soon as the attack started.

>Something is fishy here.
Let Oliver's hand go with a sigh and address the king.

I'm sorry, your highness. I can only report what I have seen- I do not know the cause, nor can I speak to what may dark politics motivated the attack. It came without warning.

All I know is that my home is in need of aid, and beseech your help.

Tell him about the World of Animals party; it may have had something to do with the attack.
Agree that something is fishy. The last thing daddy told you was we have been "ambushed" and then to escape.

Also nice drool woof woof

Gracious! You're blushing like a flustered ninny! Recover, Darling! RECOVER!

>>550641

We're advising Daydream Amielle, not Daydream Oliver who is blushing. Daydream Oliver is an indirect character.

PO: Helloooo? Amielle?

uh,it.. YOU DAD! yeah, your dad is in trouble

You were supposed to be answering the king's question, and explaining you position. Something like this >>550237

>>551809
You were about to tell the King everything you know about the attack which is admittedly not much before you got sidetracked by a wild love interest.

>>551843
Bwahaha; you encounter a wild love interest!

Anyway, yeah, I don't know any other facts relevant to the attack. Unless you have other background knowledge, or saw something we didn't, I think we've already given them all relevant information.

Amielle: OH UM R-RIGHT. A-anyway, I should probably get going and you should um, talk to your Generals like you, uh, s-said.

> Amielle fumbles with her tail. King Mortimer brushes off the daydreaming and is back in business-mode.

King Mort: Right. Well you should not leave without an escort! Perhaps my son, Oliver would be so kind as to ride home with you?

Yes. Hell yes. Hell. Kittens. Yes.

Which home? The one overrun by raccoons? Perhaps you could stay here where it is safe before moving on to rouse the nations populace.

Wait, home? You're going home? Last you heard, it was still held by invaders. I'm sure the prince is plenty capable, but we will likely need a somewhat larger escort if we intent to clear out the riff-raff.

>>553754
Quick, regain your composure. You look like you've been caught staring at one of the stable boys again.
