Different people

I take Ignis's hands and slip on the floor next to him. He's using the same technique to make me calm down? Well, I already have a counter-attack ready.

However, it's not the same situation. We're not even the same people, from a certain point of view.

Having Ignis kneeling in front of me doesn't feel like I have any real power. He's still the King, so he shouldn't be kneeling.

It's as if he was making a joke of me.

«I think you should stop with your manipulations,» I say when I'm sitting in front of him.

Oh, at least the floor is clean in my house. It's not as disgusting to sit here as it was in the inn.

«Manipulation?» Ignis stutters.

«You don't need to convince me about anything. It's too late to divorce, isn't it? And the marriage can't be annulled either. Why are you acting like this? What is your hidden purpose?»

«I don't have any hidden purpose.»
