6 season of giving

Sienna is sitting on top of one of the castle terraces. She is fanning herself, while surrounded by space heaters.

“If I could change the weather of this country, I would. Darling, apple slice please?” Sienna reaches her hand back, wriggling her fingers eagerly in expectancy. Davros gives her a slice from a tray of assorted fruits he is holding.

“Of course, Madame. However, don’t you have a wedding to plan.”

“My poor Fiancé is sick. How am I supposed to work while he is bed ridden?” She pouts.

“Madame. I’m not sure he’s as sick as he’s saying.”

Sienna turns around and throws half of her apple slice at Davros.

“How dare you say that! He is deathly ill! And I cannot have him dying before I take rule of this kingdom.” She turns back around and fans herself some more. “We need to secure the thrown before anything happens to him. We can’t keep running away from that Special Agent from Gemdania. Where did you last leave him? The pit of despair?”

“The country of Desparia.”

“Same difference. Such a dreary place.” Sienna uninterested with the conversation takes a sip of her drink.

“It does scare me that it took us two years to infiltrate this castle. Once married, I’m free of those baseless accusations back in Gemdania.”

“The prior attempts did not work, in all fairness.” Davros reminds the Princess. “This one will stick, as it is beneficial to both countries. They didn’t want the potential collapse of a country based on archaic laws, and we needed an out.”

“Yes. But having to keep this from the public and locking the Royals, and myself to the castle for two years, seemed excessive. Exceptionally excessive.” Sienna rolls her eyes.

“We had to keep it secret to remove that investigator. I also compromised in the plan Madame. Your wedding is going to over shadow their Christmas celebration. When you are Queen, it’ll be removed entirely, replaced by a celebration of your wedding and of course you.”

“That does sound delicious.” Sienna takes a bite of her apple slice.

“Madame, I do, however, think you should really take a look at that camera. There is something off about Princess Sofia’s actions and the sudden illness of Prince Leo.”

“What Davros?! Do you know something I don’t?”

“I have a feeling.”

She throws down her fan and then pulls up her phone. “I’ve always hated your feelings.” Sienna opens the camera access on her phone, she touches the screen where Leo’s lumpy body should be.

“See Davros. Asleep and resting. He’ll be ready to take my hand in no time.”

A bird flies across the screen in the background against the light. After a few seconds. It does it again, same spot. And then again.

“Davros. This little bird keeps flying across the screen here.”

Davros looks over Sienna’s shoulder, placing the platter on a table. “Madame, I can fix that.” Davros takes the phone from Sienna. After a few clicks, he hands the phone back to her.

On the screen, Sienna sees Leo is putting his boots on. He puts a jacket on, almost falling as he rushes.
