"-Dagger?" Vivi looked up from his stumbling back up. He couldn't see much, his hat had fallen forward and the brim of it was obscuring about four fifths of his feild of vision, but he'd recognise the princess' voice anywhere.
The queen's voice, he reminded himself sternly. She'd been queen for a long time now and it had happenned while he was there so really he had no excuse but old habits still died hard. She'd probably never really manage to be Queen Garnet to Vivi. Just 'Dagger' or 'Princess' (in all capital letters with too many exclaimation points following it and accompanied by the sound of plates of metal armour hitting each other). And despite his efforts to adress her properly (and he was making efforts, they just weren't paying off) he sort of preferred it that way. He didn't really want to have to refer to a friend so impersonally.
And he was thinking too much again. Both feet now properly on the ground, he pushed himself up and adjusted his hat so he could actually see. "Oh, Eiko too! Hi!"
He dusted himself down clumsily and then moved in place a little cheerfully, arms swinging back and forth. "I'm okay. Are you here to visit Eiko and Cid or-?" He cut himself off there. It was probably best not to ask if it was a royal matter or not in the middle of the street where she would probably be more comfortable if people refrained from announcing that she was queen. He had more important questions to replace that one with anyway. "-Did Zidane and Steiner come too?"
