Summary
It is with pride and no small amount of disbelief that he stalks to the porch, throws open the doors, and raises the King’s crown high above his head. Jihoon, perched atop the highest of the castle towers, must see him and cast an amplifying spell, because when he speaks his voice booms across the castle grounds. “The king is dead!” he cries, his voice ringing clear above the clang of the battle below. “The king is dead!”
The crowd below answers with a surging, deafening roar. “Rally together, soldiers!” Seungcheol can hear Soonyoung’s voice roaring. “One last push– the king is dead!”
Well done, says Jihoon’s voice in his mind, quiet and proud and relieved.
Seungcheol stands there, crown in his hands, until the battle is finally won.
or
the one where Soonyoung and Jihoon are aggressively loyal subjects, and Seungcheol just wants them to Calm Down

Summary
“Feel free to take a seat and we’ll start. These things are scheduled for half an hour, but often a lot of the younger ones leave early, if they get fussy. You can interrupt me, if you need to come get her, it’s fine.”
At first, Seungcheol thought it an odd thing to make explicitly clear. But as Jeonghan started his story for the day, and he saw how enraptured the kids were, how they seemed to almost topple forwards as they followed the librarian’s every exaggerated facial movement and hand gesture, he could easily envision an awkward parent army-crawling, trying not to break the spell, as they extracted their kids from the enchanted audience.
// Jeonghan is a children's librarian, who does storytime sessions every morning. Seungcheol is running out of ways to entertain a three-year-old.
