Most definitely Riku had seen his Prince look not his best, and even downright sick and ill. He'd stayed at his bedside all that time that Sora had been gravely wounded. And trust him, the Prince looked beautiful right now.
Abe's brother blinked a few times, confused. Did the Prince of Balamb seriously just refer to him by his first name? Why? Was it because of Abe? And who was this young man with him, this Riku le Julliet? Was he a Trabian ambassador? He was dressed well enough to be... except that his clothing wasn't Trabian in nature at all. "Sir," he said politely, and Riku echoed his greeting, content to let Sora take control of this meeting and simply observe.
"Hello!" Tohru waved happily and ate a few more strawberries. Yum!
"Yes, Your Majesty," Abe remembered her. "She assisted us with making candy for the care packages."
Simon thought it was... rather kind of the Prince to act like they hadn't basically begged the Prince to take Abe with him, and place him under his care. He'd known NO ONE. He'd had NO ONE to look out for him, more child than adult. The Prince had really been doing them a favor. "I am very glad that he was able to be of service, Your Majesty. He is our youngest, and precious."
Corin slowly began to realized who he was talking to. The Prince's cousin. The young man leading the troops that came to their aid. Corin put his hand over his head and bowed politely. "The honor is mine, My Lord. Riku has spoken well of you, and your family," well, he didn't necessarily use names, but he'd referred to people by their relationship to the Prince, and he'd always spoken well of the Prince's Cousin who was kind to servants. "He spent some time in the Trabian camp, and regaled us with stories of his time here."
