[Open] She wants to be like the water

[sissy_queen]

Guinevere has had plenty of time to recover from her emotions. She's remembered things.

She's remembered her children, the ones she has in another reality, Lleu and Goewin. She's remembered being saved from herself by Sir Kay and another nephew who claimed to have custody of her. She's had dreams.

In her dream, there is a dinner with all the

Agravain is walking through, with a bottle in one hand, drinking wine as he goes. He drops it when he sees Guinevere, and the contents start spilling onto the floor, but he doesn't care. He doesn't even notice.

"Guinevere."

His voice is full of anger and loathing.

Keywords!

Guinevere startles and pricks her finger. A small pearl of blood comes forth, and her eyes widen like prey's.

"-- Sir Agravain." It's very much a squeak.

XD they are very fitting

[asshatoforkney]

"I'm sorry," Agravain says, taking a step forward. He doesn't sound sorry at all. "Did I startle you?"

He somehow turns that question into a threat.

[sissy_queen]

"-- Nay, nay my lord," she replies quickly. "Or only a little, it's naught."

She's trying to be brave. She has nothing to be worried about. Nothing, she keeps telling herself.

Nothing.

[asshatoforkney]

"Oh, good. I would hate to frighten such a pure and virtuous lady as yourself."

Said with a very cruel sarcasm.

[sissy_queen]

"That is kind of you," she replies, her tone clipped, her back straight and erect.

Last time she saw Agravain (at the Mansion, mind you), it went very differently than this.

Then again, he was younger.

[asshatoforkney]

"Well, I am very kind. And very noble."

He's moving closer, and there's something menacing in the way he walks.

[sissy_queen]

Guinevere still doesn't back off, but she's blanching. "So you are, my lord. Are you only new come?"

She's doing all that she can to keep her countenance, but inwardly, she's starting to be very afraid.

[asshatoforkney]

"I was only killed recently, yes."

He's still coming closer.

[sissy_queen]

Guinevere takes an involuntary step back, fear is becoming visible in her eyes.

"--- that is a sad thing, my lord," she replies shakily. "Though certainly you fought bravely."

She has no idea of how you died, Agravain.

[asshatoforkney]

"Very bravely. I died exposing the deeds of two terrible traitors."

His voice suddenly gets angrier.

He's talking about you, Gwen.

[sissy_queen]

Another step back, because he's really scaring her, now.

"--- then you died bravely, my lord," she replies, almost squeaks.

I think I should probably post to OOC, hm? Both Mal and Seb want in on the interruption, so I think we'll need to coordinate, and OOC seems like the best place for it, since we're not all in chat at the same time...

[asshatoforkney]

Agravain chuckles. It's an angry, bitter sound without the slightest trace of amusement in it.

"Tell me, my lady, if one of these two traitors were to show up here, do you think it would be fitting for me to vanquish them?"

yup, sounds like a plan.

[sissy_queen]

"I do not know, my lord, what a knight should do," Guinevere replies shakily. "What have these traitors done?"

She can tell. She can guess.

Soon, she will scream.

"Well, one was a whore, and the other spent half his time at court in the queen's bed."

He doesn't stop moving towards her.

Moved to journal!
