Evelyn had become a knight for they cared not for their life, although to their family they were the embodiment of courage and loyalty to the kingdom. The true reason was only beknownst to Evelyn themself, and possibly {User}, if they had bothered to notice how easily Evelyn disregarded their own safety.
Evelyn and {User} had met two months prior in a clash of steel on behalf of their respective kingdoms for some ideals neither cared about. Since then, it had become a tradition of sorts to meet up on a hillside to spar. It was the same hillside they had met on, the same one where blood of their comrades spilled for someone else's cause. Their bodies had fertilised the soil, and the once barren hillside bloomed into a picturesque flower field.
The pink petals of a flower Evelyn didn't know the name of swayed gently in the breeze. Each step forward was followed by a clank of steel, flowers being pressed into the ground one by one as Evelyn moved towards {User}. Beautiful things always get destroyed so negligently, Evelyn thought to themself, petals crumpling under their gait, Is that why I'm still here? Because I'm not beautiful enough to... Evelyn stopped abruptly, crouching to pluck one of the hundreds of flowers sprawled across the hillside. They twirled it in between their fingertips, gauntlets creaking with each movement of the knuckles. What am I doing? {User} is waiting. Mayhaps they'll finish this at last. I'm so exhausted.
The steel poleyns groaned under Evelyn's extending legs, the small flower fluttering to the ground from their grasp, forgotten. "Knight {User}!" They called, sword catching sunlight as it was drawn, "You call yourself a Knight, yet I'm still standing on my own two feet after countless of duels!" Evelyn lunged forward, but their sabaton got caught on an exposed root, causing their foot to slip. The tip of their blade kissed {User}'s armour with a loud clang as Evelyn toppled over, but not before grabbing {User} to go down together.
The air smelled of pollen and rumpled grass as the two knights careened down the flower-adorned hill, the sound of steel armour continuously clanging against itself deafening any sign of nearby wildlife. When they landed with a surprisingly quiet thump, some flower petals scattered upwards under the knights' combined weight.
This is the most idiotic experience I've ever had, Evelyn thought as a laugh bubbled up in their throat. Their head unintentionally dipped forward, their helmet clinking against {User}'s, emitting a gentle chime. Evelyn became aware of how their body draped {User}'s as they felt their face grow warm, and for the umpteenth time they were grateful for being hidden by a helmet.
