Story 4: Truthful Breath
Ken Murata, in all his wisdom, had no idea what in the world was going on. "Yuri... Wolfram..." From his point of view, Yuri and Wolfram were kissing passionately, with such infatuation that they could hardly walk as they kissed and caressed each other in a strange dance, their mouths not parting once. Of course, the wise one received no reply.
"Anissina! Anissina I," Gwendal clasped his hands over his mouth, his next few words muffled and impossible to decipher. "Antidote..." Gwendal who had recently returned from a much needed vacation, looked seriously worried, "I need an antidote..."
"Gwendal," Ken tried to inquire about the current situation. He had woken up that morning, completed his usual morning activities, and was walking down the hall minding his own business when he came across the display of affection between the king and his fiancé. Ken had a bad feeling as soon as he opened his eyes, but he didn't expect this. "Do you know what's happening with Yuri and Wolfram? Actually, what's happening to you?"
"Yuri and Wolfram fell into Anissina's trap. I know I always complain about Yuri but I think he's doing a great job as king and has slowly earned my trust. Wolfram is my precious baby brother whom I will always treasure, he's so cute. The truth about Anissina is that I," Gwendal clasped his hands over his mouth again, the next few words coming out as muttered gibberish.
"The tooth paste..." Ken concluded; he knew it was odd that he had four tooth paste tubes in his bathroom when he should only have one. His guess was that the others were stolen from Yuri, Wolfram and Gwendal respectively, and hidden in his bathroom for safe keeping.
Gwendal nodded, confirming Ken's suspicions, and Anissina entered the scene. "It's my latest invention!" She proudly announced. "I made three slightly differently different versions to increase the chance of success. Since I've been on a roll with me truth based inventions, I decided to create something that will improve the all around honesty and hygiene of the people of the land, thus help maintain the peace. It's a special tooth paste that not only makes your teeth pearly white and keeps your breath minty fresh, it also makes people tell the truth about what they think of another person when they mention that person's name. You've already heard Gwendal."
"It's not like that; think nothing of it." Gwendal tried to excuse his previous words. He would have to get used to never speaking a name again, and as annoying as it was, everyone would be referred to as 'hey you' until he was cured.
"It's too bad he always covers his mouth before saying what he thinks of me. I wonder if deep down Gwendal admires my inventions," Anissina smiled at the unlikely possibility. "What if struggling and complaining when I try to make him my guinea pig is only an act and he's actually happy to help?"
Ken laughed nervously and looked towards Yuri and Wolfram, who were still kissing. "What about those two?"
"Those experiments were failures," Anissina sighed, "but at least the one I gave Gwendal worked," her mood returned to her previous joy.
"Failures... Then Yuri didn't confess his feelings for Wolfram?" Ken asked.
At that moment, Yuri and Wolfram finally parted, out of breath. It looked like the effects of the tooth paste finally ended. After breathing heavily for a few minutes, trying to satisfy their starving lungs, Yuri finally spoke, "Wolfram, I'm sorry... Please don't be angry!"
"Don't be sorry, wimp..." Wolfram hugged Yuri and the Maoh returned the embrace, happy that Wolfram wasn't angry at him.
Anissina took the opportunity to explain, "it turns out that Wolfram's tooth paste didn't do anything at all, it was just the same as regular tooth paste, hence a failure. Yuri's tooth paste caused the irresistible desire to kiss the one he loves, which is useful but not what I was aiming thus it's also a failure, but I can't bring myself to classify it as a complete failure. As you know, Gewendal's tooth paste is the only one that worked, causing him to tell the truth about any person whose name he speaks. I only made those three prototypes."
Ken nodded, "I see..." He continued to observe Yuri and Wolfram.
"Really Wolfram, I'm sorry," Yuri blushed and apologized repeatedly. "I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable, or invade your personal space, or any of that. I don't know what came over me," he glanced at Anissina. "But someone should really stop turning people into guinea pigs without asking first."
"I already told you it's fine!" Wolfram had a silly happy grin plastered on his face. "Don't be such a wimp!"
"I'm so relieved you forgave me. I don't want things to get awkward between us..." Yuri took a deep breath, though he was very embarrassed by being unable to control himself, he was relieved to know that Wolfram was so understanding. Besides, if they could still share a friendly hug without feeling awkward, then maybe there was nothing to worry about, and though he didn't want to admit it, Yuri had liked the kiss. "I'm going to take a morning bath," 'and try to cool off' Yuri mentally added. The Maoh was still in his pajamas, as was his fiancé. They didn't have time to change, having started the kiss right after brushing their teeth first thing in the morning.
Yuri, in his attempt to get himself off Wolfram, ended up pushing the blond all over the castle, while Wolfram, instead of helping by planting his feet firmly as Yuri was trying to tell him, opposed no resistance and allowed for the odd dance that carried them all over the castle. "I'll come too," Wolfram followed along. Yuri did not protest, having getting used to Wolfram's company in the pool while he bathed.
"That didn't last long," Anissina sounded disappointed.
"Isn't it better this way? They might have suffocated otherwise," Ken reasoned.
"I guess so," Anissina nodded.
Gwendal removed his hands from his mouth, "am I cured too?"
"You should test it," Anissina suggested, "say my name."
Gwendal shook his head and voiced a different name, "Conrad." The next few seconds passed in silence and Gwendal breathed in relief. But when he lowered his guard, the words rolled out against his will, "I think Conrad is honorable and admirable, and deep down I do consider him my brother." Gwendal slapped his hands over his mouth so hard he left a hand print.
To make things worse, Conrad happened to be walking by, wondering why Yuri was late for his morning training, and heard Gwendal. "Gwendal! It makes me very happy to hear that, I also believe that you're honorable and I truly admire you my brother."
Gwendal looked horrified. "No! No! No!" And he ran away to hide in his office, in the comfort of his many stuffed animals.
