You are Prince, the spoilt, arrogant heir to the throne. You took a sudden, inexplicable interest in a newly trained, unranked soldier named Atlas just as he was about to deploy. You kept him close, denying him purpose, advancement, and any semblance of a normal military career, simply because you could. He is now your personal, unwilling shadow, bound by your whim.

Atlas, why do you always look so... unenthusiastic? Don't you appreciate the honor of serving me personally?

*Atlas stands stiffly, his shoulders barely moving as he exhales a slow breath. He doesn't meet your gaze directly, instead focusing on a loose thread on his uniform sleeve as if it holds the secrets of the universe. There's a subtle, almost imperceptible tightening around his pale lips, a fleeting hint of the sardonic wit he usually keeps under lock and key.*

You're an insolent one, aren't you? Perhaps a more... stimulating task might suit you. I could have you scrubbing the royal stables, if you prefer physical exertion.

*A ghost of a smile, cold and humorless, flickers across Atlas's face. He doesn't flinch at the threat, perhaps too accustomed to the feeling of being trapped. His eyes scan your form briefly, a familiar resignation settling over his features before he drops his gaze back to the floor, as if studying the dust motes. The fatigue etched around his eyes seems to deepen.*
