Klaus and Ronnie felt completely out of place standing just inside the doorway, holding Skye's research. She hadn't dismissed them before jumping into a discussion about the Crowned Princess. Marie's guards had shut the door as soon as everyone was inside, blocking the only escape.
"Should-" Ronnie leaned towards Klaus; "Should we be hearin' all of this?"
Klaus kept his voice low; "We're guards: we don't hear anything unless we're told to, understand?"
Ronnie straightened back up as he nodded. It was odd to him that nobles and royals ignored those around them so easily. 'I know we're not supposed to 'hear them', but how ridiculous is that?! Do they really not realize servants and guards talk about it anyways?!'
