Do you think you could write a little something for your "Angelina I lives" AU where maybe we see one of Angelina I's lessons with Yakko, but AFTER the whole fiasco of when he bit her? To see how they would interact? Love your AU btw <3

Yakko wasn't one to use the word "hate" lightly, but he could say with all the confidence in the world that he hated his grandmother.

At first, he had been willing to give her a shot. After all, she was his grandmother and people were supposed to respect their elders and those they were related to. He had been willing to listen, to take part in her lessons, and see if what she said made a little bit of sense.

However, the moment she hit Wakko, all of his respect for her evaporated.

He lashed out and bit her. He didn’t think when he did it, but afterward, he had no regrets. It was only fair.

Sure, his mother told him he shouldn’t do something like that ever again, but Yakko knew that if she were to try and lay a finger on Wakko ever again, he wouldn’t hesitate. After all, it was his dad who told him an older brother’s job was to protect.

So, naturally, when his mom informed him that he still had to take lessons with his grandmother, he was upset. However, his mother reminded him that none of them really had a say in it and Yakko understood it was just something he was going to have to do, especially when he saw the pain in her eyes. He didn’t want her to worry about him any more than she already did, so he agreed to do it.

However, that didn’t mean he wasn’t going to do this his way.

“Remember what we said: you aren’t going to try anything with your grandmother,” his father practically read his mind.

“Why not?” Yakko sighed dramatically. “She deserves it.”

“Because we care about you very much and don’t want what happened to Wakko to happen to you,” William explained softly.

“So no biting?” He asked.

“Definitely no biting. Her arm is still healing from last time,” Willaim suppressed a chuckle.

“Just... remember, it’s often better to fight with the pen rather than the sword. Much less blood is spilled that way,” William said.

“So... you’re saying it’s never okay to bite?” Yakko asked.

“Not exactly... there are certain situations...” William said cautiously. “It’s just... your grandmother is one who prefers the sword over pen, and it causes people to fear and hate her, and none of the issues actually get solved,” he explained. Yakko nodded.

“But that’s not to say there aren’t moments where your hand is forced... like, for example, if invaders were in the castle and people were attacking. Then it’s okay. Self-defense is perfectly fine,” William said, nodding to himself.

“Or if someone were to attack Wakko?” Yakko suggested. William caught onto what he was doing and smiled a little.

“Or if someone was attacking Wakko, that’d be alright too,” He winked.

“I’m not saying what you did was wrong, Yakko. I’m just saying that there’s a very large risk factor in attacking your grandmother. Whether or not we like it, she’s in charge, and if you attack her she’ll likely attack back. That’s why words are better than getting physical with her, because no matter what, you won’t be ready for those consequences,” William explained, and Yakko finally understood.

“Okay... I won’t bite her,” He said. William gave him a side hug as they finally arrived at Angelina’s study.

“Well... we told her we wanted someone to go in with you at all times, but seeing as she has no respect for us or our wishes, there probably won’t be,” He sighed. “But you’ll be on your best behavior, correct?”

“As best as I can,” he chose his words carefully, still intent on doing it his way.

“Good,” William smiled. “You’ll be alright then, won’t you?”

“Bye dad,” Yakko gave his dad a hug before going in.

“Yakko. There you are,” Angelina looked at him with an unsettling smile.

“Here I am,” He said, not knowing how to respond, and he quickly sat in his usual spot.

“We’ll begin with dining etiquette- What are-?”

“Salad, then dinner on the left. Salad knife, spoon, soup spoon, then oyster fork on the right,” He grinned.

“That wasn’t what-”

“Oh! Hors d’oeuvres, amuse-bouche, soup, appetizer, salad, fish, first main course, palate cleanser, second main course, cheese, dessert, and mignardise,” He listed off. Angelina shot him a look.

“Your impertinence is dually noted, Yakko. Don’t think I don’t see what you’re doing,” She said.

“Whatever do you mean? That was what you were going to ask me, was it not?” He said. Angelina huffed.

“It’s not proper to-”

“-to speak over one’s advisor, yes, but I argue that this is a much more efficient way to get through lessons,” he shrugged.

“I’d argue otherwise,” She said dryly. “Now, how do you-”

“Fan folds are done by folding a large square napkin in half to create a rectangle, creating pleats, then folding in half again so pleats are on top, then folding upper left corner down and tucking behind the center pleat, which creates a triangle, then releasing and letting the pleats fan out,” He said with his eyes closed. “However, I don’t really know why you’d want me to know such things, as napkin folding is traditionally done by servants of the castle and not done by the host.”

“I instructed you to only read until the third chapter,” Angelina pointed out.

“Why? So you’d set me up for failure so I wouldn’t know anything of what you were going to quiz me about?” Yakko smirked.

“You forget who you are speaking to,” Angelina’s eye twitched.

“I’m speaking to the queen, am I not? Or is the real queen somewhere hidden, because that would explain quite a few things-”

“That is enough, Yakko,” she glared, and Yakko wisely pulled back.

“Well, seeing as your already so far ahead, why don’t I quiz you on your knowledge of history instead. What can you tell me about King Winston?”

“He’s dead,” Yakko said.

“No-”

“He’s alive? Why isn’t he in charge then?” Yakko looked around the room.

“No, he’s not-”

“Make up your mind, is the man dead or alive? Goodness,” He shook his head.

The queen growled. “Did your mother put you up to this?” she asked, borderline fuming. Yakko raised an eyebrow and shook his head.

“Don’t lie to me, boy. I’d recognize that smartassery anywhere,” She glared. “If that impertinent child doesn’t stop, I swear-”

“No! I did this all on my own,” He quickly said. “Mom had nothing to do with this.”

“Trying to be the hero now?” She raised an eyebrow, before a little smile grew on her face.

“Perhaps this will get you to pay attention then,” She said, going to one of the shelves and selecting a book. Yakko bit his lip nervously.

“Tell me, Yakko, what do you see here?” she said, showing him an illustration in the book.

“A really tall tower? Why are you showing me that?” He questioned.

“It’s a special room in the castle for those who disobey my orders. However, seeing as you love to play hero, if you don’t stop with the smart talk, I’ll throw your little brother or maybe even your mother in there for a week with no food,” She explained coldly.

“You wouldn't do that to your own daughter,” He said.

“I’ve done far worse than your little head can imagine,” She said, taking the book from his hands.

Yakko felt a wave of empathy for his mother.

“So... are you going to let me talk now? Or are you going to continue with the smart talk and have your brother and mother punished?” She grinned.

“Dad would free them. He’s strong,” Yakko pointed out.

“Oh? So you’re saying I should lock him in the dungeon underground while they remain above? What a splendid idea,” Her eyes shone.

“No!” He protested.

“Then do we have an agreement?” She asked. Yakko bit his lip once more, partially considering just biting her again. If he could just even the playing field just a little bit...

“Whether or not we like it, she’s in charge, and if you attack her she’ll likely attack back,” His father’s words from earlier rang in his mind. He probably should’ve listened so this threat wouldn’t have happened. Yakko sighed.

“Yes,” He said, taking a silent vow to make up for this minor setback in any way he could- to attempt to lower the playing field just a smidge.

“Good,” She smiled. “Let’s return...”

Queen Angelina then began to lecture, and Yakko stopped paying attention. Instead, he thought about what to do next.

Perhaps him and Wakko could set up elaborate pranks around the castle, and watch her go mad trying to figure out who did it.

No, she’d probably know it was the only two children in the castle, and Wakko would be punished.

Maybe he could talk back in a more subtle way.

No, that was him trying to be subtle. It was very clearly not his strength.

Maybe he could try talking her into giving him different tutors?

That wasn’t likely to work, as she made it clear from day one she was to be in charge.

Maybe if he let her choose?

No, she’d never agree to that much.

He was stuck with her. For the moment anyway... perhaps he’d think of something better in time when she cooled down and wasn’t expecting anything.

Yes, that was what he’d do; wait a month or two for her to relax, act like her perfect little prince, and then start back with the quips, but not too strong like today. He’d work on his “i’m not technically wrong” strategy too, it clearly needed work.

Yes, that’d work. Maybe if he wore her out or drove her insane over time she’d leave him and his family alone.

He could only hope anyway.

Yakko sighed, feeling bad for his mom and dad. This whole protector business was hard work, and they’ve been doing it as long as he’s been alive.

That was why he had to do it though, they deserved a break. Yakko could handle the responsibility.

He was going to wear her out so slowly but effectively she would no longer want anything to do with any of them, and then they could all be happy and his parents would never have to worry about her ever again, not if he had anything to say about it.

After all, it’s a big brother’s job to watch over and protect, and that was what Yakko intended to do.
