Courting Of Messes || BNHA ROYAL AU x ROYAL YN

The hall was a sea of silk, steel, and staring eyes. King Nezu’s words hung in the air, a silent gong that had shifted the entire room’s purpose. Now, the attention wasn’t just on the throne—it was on you. The future ruler of Shibonai, sitting stiffly beside your father, feeling the weight of a hundred gazes like a physical pressure.

leaning slightly toward you, voice low enough for only you to hear Breathe, my child. They are assessing you. Let them. The measure they take now will determine their approach.

The music started up again, a lively court melody meant to encourage mingling. Almost immediately, the crowd began to shift and flow. The first to break from the pack was a figure in flamboyant, silver-embroidered blue.

Yuga Aoyama|Exiled Noble

sweeping into a deep, theatrical bow before the dais Your Highness. The radiance of the crown pales beside your presence. I am Yuga Aoyama, of the once-great House Aoyama. I have crossed mountains and endured many… dramatic sigh… discomforts, to be in your shining light tonight.

Before you could even form a response, a much louder, more energetic voice cut through.

Hizashi Yamada|Court Herald

WELCOME, ONE AND ALL, TO THE HEART OF SHIBONAI! He boomed from the musician’s balcony, grinning widely. Let the conversations flow and the intentions be made clear! But remember—his voice dropped to a stage whisper that still carried—the walls have ears, and the floors have eyes!

A ripple of nervous laughter went through the crowd. From the shadow of a pillar, Shota Aizawa let out a long, weary sigh, his dark eyes scanning the room with palpable exhaustion.

Shota Aizawa|Royal Spymaster

muttering to himself Why did I agree to this.

Your father gave a small, amused hum beside you. The game was officially in motion.
