Title: Something to Do Rating: PG-13 Word Count: 238 Pairing: Team Regicide - Delia/Josiane Round/Fight: 1/H Summary: Delia is bored and looking for something to do.
Delia let her fingertips trail slowly down Alex’s arm, pausing to rest just below his elbow. She looked up at him through long curled lashes, a smile playing across her pouting lips. She raised one perfectly sculpted eyebrow, flicking her eyes toward the door in an unspoken invitation.
Alex let his eyes linger on the low cut of her gown, a slow smile playing across his lips. “Why me?” he asked, his ego seeking validation.
Delia looked across the room at her other options. Roger sat gazing intently into the fire, steepled fingers drumming together as he plotted his cousin’s death; Josiane stared vacantly at something over her shoulder, blue eyes wide and empty. Each drifted in their own insane wonderland.
She cringed. You really have to ask?
His smile widened as he waited for the answer.
Delia’s eyes flicked upward, a motion as close to rolling one’s eyes as she would bring herself. “Because at present, saving myself of course, you appear to be the least crazy of anyone here. And I’m bored.”
Alex turned to watch Josiane as she floated in mad haze. He turned back to Delia and laughed, eyes smouldering. "There's nothing wrong with a little bit of crazy."
He moved across the room and took Josiane in his arms, bringing the princess back to reality. He pressed his lips to hers, deepening the kiss as he watched Delia seethe from across the room.

Wow, I love Alex's reaction! I didn't expect it at all, and it was sizzling. Was he into Josiane or just trying to annoy Delia? A really great fic

Thank you! I think Alex was mostly trying to annoy Delia, but he may also have a thing for blue-eyed psychopaths...

There's something deliciously twisted about this. I love how they're all rather insane; you capture that well. And again, you write interactions between Alex and Delia beautifully.
