[team two] This is goodbye, then

I ran out of time! I hope to finish this later. I’m really sorry about the double post ><



A crown is a terrible thing, William thinks, not for the first time. The staff are rushing around him, a blur of rustling papers and flashing screens and somehow he's going to have to carry the weight of this, pick up the pieces of a mess that isn't even his.

His hands are laying limply in his lap; he lifts one and examines the fingernails as though they belong to someone else. You should stop biting your nails, he thinks, a simulated bystander looking at the prince. He doesn't look much like a prince today, threadbare yellow shirt and scuffed trainers, heels bumping against the plaster wall as he sits on the window sill. At least the sun is warm on his back, as everything falls apart.
