LGBT PROJECT FOR PRIDE MONTH 2019, AUDIO DRAMA: "Once Upon A Time With Me"
LuxeLuvVA for Menaka
NAME PRONUNCIATION: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsql32QnyGw
The princess of Britesta who is to be wed to whatever prince her parents deem fit, something she greatly disagrees with. She wishes to break her conservative kingdom's tradition and marry whoever she wishes, and her wish eventually reveals itself to be Terpsichore, a meek maiden girl who won her over faster than she could have ever imagined.
Menaka is headstrong, clever, opinionated, and fierce. She stands up for what she believes in, and while she has a sharp tongue and a quick wit, she's nowhere near as curt as she appears to be.
She is of Asian descent, tall, and carries herself very regally in the public eye.
(Dryly.) "...Charmed. Mother, daddy, I'm going to my chambers now, if you don't mind. I'm feeling quite tired after the voyage here and this is...(Looking nauseously at Rotem.) quite a bit to take in. I believe I'm going to retire for the night."
(Annoyed as all hell with the stupid frilly dress she was shoved into.) "I can't breathe in this thing! Damned ball, damned princes, damned affiances- (The dress rips, she releases an exhausted breath.) Thank you, Lord. (Growls.) I swear my hand to the almighty presences above me that I will NEVER, and I mean NEVER, let anyone with such ROUGH hands close to my bosom ever again. (Terpsi appears in her prince attire.)...Though I am willing to make some exceptions."
(Tenderly.) "Terpsichore...after the goddess of dance and choir, 'delight in dance'. (Giggles.) What a divine tune you can carry. I'm so sorry for my impoliteness earlier, I was rather tired and - if I must be honest - very unimpressed with this nation's selection for me. But now...I believe I'm seeing a bit more clearly."
