There was a few moments of silence between both Princess Allie and Cyrus as Cyrus finally decided to respond to Allie's question, but not without letting out a heavy, disappointed sigh. "Yes... I-I'm attracted to your... gassy ass..." Cyrus said embarrassingly. After Cyrus had said that, he heard Allie mutter to herself, "I knew it." Cyrus was confused. "K-Knew it? I don't understand - what gave it away?"
Allie finally took her hands off the wall behind Cyrus and moved her body away from his, allowing Cyrus enough room to move away from the wall she previously pressed him up against in the castle hall. She crossed her arms and said, "Oh, nothing gave it away - it was just a hunch. I've seen this sorta thing happened before, is all." Cyrus' eyebrows raised in confusion. Allie couldn't help but giggle before she said, "OK, this is gonna sound weird, so buckle up. Now, one more question - did Andie fart right in your face?" Cyrus was taken aback, surprised that that was what she asked him, of all things. Cyrus raised his left arm and moved his hand behind his head as he said "Yes...? What does that have to do with it?" Allie moved her arms from the crossed position they were in, and then moved them to her hips as she said, "Don't worry, I got an answer for that - like I said, this is gonna sound weird, but I promise this is all true. See, the reason you're suddenly feeling the way you are is because Andie cast a curse on you... with her butt."
"With her bu-- how? All she did was pass gas right in my face, that's barely a curse," Cyrus said in disbelief. Allie continued, "Oh, you don't know Andie very well, do you? Trust me, I've known her long enough to know how this song and dance goes by now. But, I'll answer your question first - basically, Andie did something to her body that makes it so that, not only is she really gassy, but also makes it so that, when she farts in someone's face, it causes them to become more and more attracted to her and her flatulence. The attraction only gets stronger and stronger the more she farts around you. How long have you been working here again?" Cyrus paused for a moment before answering, "Uh, only a couple of days, if that?" Allie smiled proudly. "Good," she said, "I caught ya early - wait, then when did she do that to you?" Cyrus replied, "What, fart in my face?" Allie responded back, "Yeah, that."
Cyrus said rather plainly, "Pretty much right when I met her." Allie snickered, "Oh man, hahaha, she must be getting pretty desperate then." Cyrus only continued to keep his eyebrow raised as Allie finished laughing. Once, she did, Cyrus added, "So, what do you mean she did something to her body? Sounds like even you don't know." Allie responded in kind by saying, "Oh, no I don't - but I have some guesses. After I read up on magic spells from every book I could et my hands on, I came up with three possibilities: 1) Andie drank a magical flatulence potion infused with some sort of charming agent that makes it so that those who smell her gas become attracted to it. This one I think is the most likely, since potions often come with unintended side effects - like making the charmed person feel attracted to *everybody's* farts. It's also the easiest one, assuming Andie knows her alchemy." Cyrus interrupted, "Then, what are the other two?" Allie raised a finger at Cyrus. "Hold on, I'm getting there," she continued. "2) It was some curse that was placed on her by a witch or something. This one I'm not sure about, since curses always come attached to stipulations - no curse is unbreakable, there's always a way to break it. I like to think that the curse was to make her fart, like, all the time, and the only way to break it was if she found true love or whatever. Although, if *that* were true, then her farts shouldn't work the way they do, attracting people to her - that doesn't make sense."
Cyrus interjected once more, "And number 3?" Allie rolled her eyes and responded, "Number 3 is the simplest explanation, but it's one I don't buy - basically, it's the possibility that she was born that way, and always had that ability. I don't buy this one, because, unless there's something her family isn't telling me, there's never been any history of that with the royal bloodline. Besides, to fart that much, she'd have to be like, part ogre or something, haha." Cyrus smirked and quipped, "You mean like you?" Allie couldn't help but smile before she said, "Ohhh, ho ho, you think I'm part ogre, huh? Whatever gave you that idea?" AS she said this, she deliberately poked her butt out some and pushed out a short, sharp toot.
Brapp!
Cyrus tried to hide it, but that made him blush. "A-Anyway... *ahem* How you know all this?" Allie's demeanor became a bit more serious. She answered, "Because like I said, I've seen this happen before - whenever Andie gets a new bodyguard, she does that: she puts her ass right to their faces, farts right in their faces, and then the more she farts around them, the more infatuated the guards become with her. Honestly, at it's worst, it gets really gross, it's like they only get more depraved as time goes on." Cyrus gulped with worry. "S-So, that's gonna happen to me?" Allie smiled at him, and reassured, "Nah, I gotcha - there's a way to break every spell, 'member? Thankfully, I've been able to help out all those guards at one point or another. All ya gotta do is say the word, and I'll help break it for ya!"
Cyrus took a moment to think back on what the last couple of days - he thought back to what the other guard had told him when he accepted the position. That guard mentioned how multiple men had left their posts because of Andaret''s farts and how foul they were. If that were true, then how does that connect back to what Allie said? he thought. If this curse attracts people to her, then why would they leave? ...Perhaps it's because Allie broke the curse's hold on them and she told them what happened. That... that would make sense. The way Cyrus was thinking about it, the pieces were starting to fall into place - Andaret's rude personality, what the guard had said to him about the previous men in Cyrus' position, and what Allie just told him about Andaret's cursed flatulence. He also thought back to the time where he first noticed the effects of the curse - when Andaret had performed her acts on Cyrus. Was Cyrus really OK with going through something like that again? Maybe even something worse, if Allie was to be believed?
Cyrus asked Allie, "Can she just curse me again?" Allie said frankly, "No - she's tried, it doesn't work. In fact, once her hold is broken, it makes it so that her farts smell even worse to those people than they already did before - it has the opposite effect, it repels them." Cyrus' eyes widened and his eyebrows raised at Allie reply. Holy shit, he thought, that just sealed the deal! So THAT'S what's been happening here - it's a no-win scenario: either I become a more depraved, fart sniffing pervert, or her gas gets so bad that it'll be unbearable. No WONDER those guys left this job, it really DOES stink!
Cyrus paused for one more moment and said, "Alright... I believe you - it makes sense, all of it." Allie looked shocked. "Wow, really?" she said, admittedly baffled. "Usually dudes just think I'm pulling their leg - takes a lot more convincing than that. Gotta say, I'm glad - I guess some men really do listen, huh?" she had said with a smirk and a giggle. Cyrus gave a wry smile back, as if to give Allie a hard time for what she just said. "I'm kidding," Allie said, "no need for you to get a stick up your ass about it."
"So, how do we break the curse's hold on me?" Cyrus asked. Allie let out a sigh. "OK, this is the part you're probably not gonna like - see, the way to break the curse is simple: someone of greater or equal level of flatulence has to fart in the face of those who are charmed. It's as though the smell of a foreign scent breaks the grip her scent has on you." Cyrus couldn't help but wince. "Oh no... I have to put my face up to your butt?" Allie shared his concern by saying, "Hey, I'm no fan of it either, man - I don't want your nose anywhere near my ass either, but if you wanna break this thing, that's how ya gotta do it. If you really don't want to, that's up to you, I ain't gonna force ya. Just remember, I'll be here for a couple of days to sort things out with the Epula-Abon Union, so this isn't your last chance or anything - but the longer you wait, the more of a grip this curse will have on you. You may get to the point where you don't want to have it broken anymore."
Cyrus gave it some thought before deciding:
