Marco stared blankly at Skye as her answer hit him. He had not been expecting her to decline him outright. No One had Ever declined being the Queen for a Day, so the possibility of it happening hadn't occurred to him at all.
As if frozen, Marco just stood there with his hand extended for a few moments until Skye added; "Thank you for considering me, but I am no longer considered a commoner according to the King, so I am disqualified."
Semantics being his bread and butter, Marco replied; "But you are common-born, and no one deserves the honor more than you do. You have earned the title Queen."
Skye may have looked prim and placid on her surface, but she was boiling over with rage inside. 'The fact that he would even Try to pull somethin' like this.. Ahh! Makes me think that HE started those bloody rumors.. But WHY?! To pissed off Tidas? No.. I know he has intentions towards me; bad ones. Tis pretty plain to see.'
