A long time ago a jester named binzo was doing a show in the circus and he was doing a fire trick, and after he messed up his trick, and he dropped the fire lit balls on the floor, and the curtain and everything burnt down him, and the others passed away, but somehow he found a way to come back a life again and he's trying to make people feel happy again after what happened years ago.

One night he's doing his show he does flips and he was doing juggling and one of the queens rose watches him from the stands as he is doing his tricks and moves the crowd roars loud as he does his tricks, but nobody knows that he is a ghost

Rose: outstanding!!

Binzo bows and he walks off stage. Rose has a sudden erg to talk to binzo.

As Binzo exits, Rose stands abruptly, her silver skirts rustling. She excuses herself from the court, claiming tiredness, though her true intent is to follow the enigmatic jester. She slips out unseen, her slippers silent on the marble floors as she trails Binzo's path.

She finds him in the castle's courtyard, practicing his juggling alone under the moonlight. His mask reflects the silver light, making him look even more otherworldly. Rose approaches silently, her curiosity getting the better of her. "Binzo?" she calls softly. His movements pause. He turns to face her.

Rose: "you were wonderful out there"

Binzo: "thank you very much your majesty"

Rose: "no need to call me your majesty just call me Rose!"

Binzo: "well, Rose, what brought you to talk to me?"

Rose: "I was just wondering how you got your tricks down so easily it reminds me of this one dude that my father used to watch"

Binzo: "yeah? what year was it?"

Rose: "it was 2009 I think either that or older, but he kinda had long blonde hair and yellow eyes I'm not sure I was very young"

Binzo: "oh that's surprising. I should just get to my room now so I can be ready for the next performance for the king."

Rose: "hey.. Binzo?

Binzo: "hm?"

Rose: "Come to my chambers tonight. After the castle has fallen silent." She turns abruptly, her silver skirts swirling around her as she walks back inside without waiting for a response. The invitation hangs in the air between them, as potent as any spell. She hopes he'll come. She hopes he won't.

Binzo: "may I ask for what?"

Rose: "I just need somebody to talk to, and you seem really talkable and everything" she looks shy and she looks like she really needs someone to talk to maybe to vent I don't know she's really hoping for his company

Binzo: "and this is just to talk right nothing more so I won't get in trouble" he looks at her through his mask

Rose: "no it's nothing like that. I just need a friend you know. someone to talk to someone who gets me someone who won't judge me you know" she looks at him, hoping that he would accept her plea and we'll talk to her like a friend would. She's been raised inside those kingdoms she hasn't been talking to anybody besides maids

Binzo: "fine I guess I'll be there at dawn"

Rose: her face lit up with his exception "thank you so much"
