《Enchanted (Prince Edward x reader)》Chapter 6: Pip The Messenger

Robert: Oh, yeah. Here. Watch this. Watch very carefully. I'm gonna put it in this hand like that.
He shows Giselle a coin trick
Giselle: Oh, do it again! Show me! That's wonderful. - Show me again! -
Robert: All right. Last time. There you go. There it is. And look.
Giselle: You're a wizard!
Robert: What?
Giselle: This is a very nice place.
Robert: Yeah.
Giselle: And we're eating dinner?
Robert: Yeah.
Giselle: This is a date.
Robert: Yeah. No! No! No, no. We're just... We're just friends. Besides, people don't usually bring their children on dates.
Giselle: That's too bad. Morgan's a lovely girl. She's very kind and very sweet.
Robert: Yeah. She's great.
He sees Giselle looking at Morgan sadly
Robert: What?
Giselle: Does she miss her terribly?
Robert: Miss who?
Giselle: Her mother.
Robert: Um...Well, we just...
Giselle: What?
Robert: We don't talk about it.
Giselle: Oh. I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to pry.
Robert: No, no. It's OK. It's just... I don't talk about it... to Morgan or to anybody.
Giselle: Because it was very sad?
Robert: Not at first.
Giselle: You were in love.
Robert: Yeah. Yeah. That was the problem.
Giselle: How could that be a problem?
Robert: Because love... The lovey-dovey version that you talk about? It's fantasy. And one day, you have to wake up and... ...you're in the real world.
Giselle: What made you wake up?
Robert: Well... ...she left.
Giselle: I'm so sorry for you both.
Robert: It's OK. I'm a big boy. I can handle it. It's her I worry about, though. I know she's shy. I know she doesn't have very many friends. I just want her to be strong, you know? To be able to face the world for what it is. That's why I don't encourage the fairy tales. I don't want to set her up to believe in this "dreams come true" nonsense.

Giselle: But dreams do come true. And maybe something wonderful will happen.
Robert: Yeah, well, I forgot who I was talking to.
Giselle: Well, I hope you don't forget. I like talking to you.
Nathaniel: For the nice lady. From a secret admirer.
Robert: Secret admirer? How come people keep giving you free stuff?
Giselle: What is it?
Nathaniel: It's an apple martini, miss.
Robert: Apple mar...
Giselle: Ooh! It looks yummy.
Robert: Be careful. It's poisonous.
Nathaniel looked at him startled
Giselle: You're joking.
Robert: Yeah. They'll creep up on you. I'd be careful.
As they laugh
Giselle: Well, I'll just have one sip.
Nathaniel: A sip is all it takes.
Pip jumps onto the table and starts trying to warn Giselle
Nathaniel: You miserable...
Robert: There's a rodent on the table! Can we get some help here?
Giselle: He's telling me something! Pip, you're here! Oh!
Old lady: It's chewing off her face!
Morgan: A chipmunk!
Robert: That thing's loaded with disease.
Giselle: Edward is here! (Y/N) is here too!
Nathaniel: I'll save you, miss!
Giselle: Oh, my! Pip?
Nathaniel: Okey-dokey.
Robert: Duck!
He makes Giselle duck as Nathaniel swung a broom towards Pip
Robert: Let me see your face.
Checking Giselle
Giselle: I'm fine! Pip wouldn't scratch me! No! - Where's Pip? Where is he?
Morgan: The pizza's breathing!
They look at the pizza as it moves up and down
Giselle: Oh! Pip!
She sighs
Nathaniel lifts the pizza and tosses it into the fire place
Giselle: Oh, no. Pip.
Robert: What's wrong? Are you OK?
Morgan: Oh, Daddy.
But Pip was just fine, he landed inside a bottle
Edward: Tell us magic mirror, what is this awful place? Why is everything so difficult? Will I ever find my heart's duet?
Reporter: Preliminary search of the pizza oven did not reveal any rodent remains. This animal's still out there.

Reporter: Joining us is the woman who was attacked by this chipmunk.
Edward & (Y/N): Giselle!
Reporter: Tell us, how does it feel knowing this dangerous animal is most likely still alive?
Giselle: Wonderful! Pip is my very best friend, and...
Robert: Giselle, why don't we go home?
Reporter: I wasn't finished. One more question, please.
Edward: What villainy is this?
Reporter: Is this unprovoked attack part of some new trend? Is rodent rage on the rise?
Edward: Magic mirror, I beg you. Tell us where she is!
Reporter: From 116th and Broadway...
Edward: 116th and Broadway! Thank you, mirror!
He kissed it and you both ran off to find Giselle
Giselle: My goodness. We sure had a lot of excitement tonight.
Robert: Were you scared earlier?
Morgan: A little bit. But do you think Pip will be OK?
Giselle: Oh, I wouldn't worry about Pip. He is very brave. I remember this one time when the poor wolf was being chased by Little Red Riding Hood around his grandmother's house and she had an axe. Oh. And if Pip hadn't been walking by to help, I don't know what would've happened. I don't really remember that version. Well, that's because Red tells it a little differently.
Morgan: Good night, Giselle. And thank you for the nice story.
Giselle: Good night, Morgan.
random person: Ma'am! You cannot let your dog do that here!
A woman: You're too late.
The woman says looking at both of you
Edward: My apologies.
After knocking on almost every door, you both sat down and leaned on a wall. You both fell asleep with your head on Edward's shoulder and his head on top of yours.
Edward: Oh, Giselle!
He sighs
Robert: Look, uh, Giselle. That was a nice story about your chipmunk friend and all.
Giselle: Yes.
Robert: I know what it's like when someone disappoints you. It's tempting to see things the way you wish...instead of how they are.
Giselle: I don't wish that he's coming, Robert. He is. And so is (Y/N).
Robert: Right. Because the chipmunk told you.
Giselle: Yes. Pip actually said-
Robert: Know what? I don't know if you're kidding or being ironic, because chipmunks don't talk.
Giselle: Well, not here they don't.
Robert: So in lieu of taking advice from a forest rodent, I just wanted to say that, uh... ...if it did work out and you decided to stay in New York, I'd like to help.
Giselle: That's very kind of you, Robert. But Edward and (Y/N) are coming for me.
Robert: But what if they don't?
Giselle: Why do you keep saying that?
Robert: Because I deal with this every day. If a relationship has issues at the beginning, it doesn't get any better.
Giselle: They are coming!
Robert: Giselle, I don't think so. No.
Giselle: Yes!
Robert: I have to disagree. No.
Giselle: No?
Robert: No.
Giselle: Is that the only word that you know? No?
Robert: No!
Giselle: Oh, yeah?
Robert: No. No. I mean, no.
Giselle: No! No! Over and over again! Every word out of your mouth is "no"! It makes me so... sometimes you make me so...
Robert: I make you so what?
Giselle: You make me so...so...angry! I'm angry!
Robert: Are you all right?
Giselle: I'm angry. I'm angry!
She hits his chest
Robert: Are you OK?
Giselle: I'm... I'm wonderful.
Robert: Are you sure?
Giselle: Yes. I'm... I'm fine. I'm... ...fit as a fiddle.
Robert: OK. Good night.

8 152The Fate of a villain (But not really)
But to be honest, he doesn't really want to be one. Assigned that role by a bored god looking for entertainment, he struggles with the past. Seriously, how much of an asshole could a dead man have been? As an imposter, the new soul possessing the body of a certain Francis Rayleigh, he tries his best to change that past image of his. Its not all simple though. Just because of his pretty face, it doesn't mean that life bows down to him. And to top it all off, a god, no matter how bored they were, is still by most definitions a god. Ultimately, on the grand stage of the world, will the fate forced upon him prevail? Without burning any villages, and trying to be as peaceful as possible, he hopes to avoid those hands of fate. No evil empires dancing on his palm, no conspiracy to rid the world of intelligent life. Not even a superweapon to turn the world's lives into his slaves. Just a man, found on the weaker side of life, trying to live. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NOTE: CONTAINS CROSSDRESSING, LGBT ELEMENTS It starts off really slowly, so take your time. Mostly just fluff, with plot sprinkled in. The action picks up in chapters 20+! Its somewhat episodic, but also a serial, if that makes sense.
