Long Ago, in the Land of the Green Isles [ Tuesday, 08/16 ].

Aug 16, 2011 08:22

There was no denial that yesterday had been rather eventful. Apart from being shipwrecked conveniently in the same land they were looking for, Alexander and his company had had quite an adventure in their efforts to bring the prince one step closer to the woman he had spent so much of his time trying to find.

The only way to get into the castle is either by Alexander's spell or by dressing up as servant girls to sneak in through the front. Evil bad dudes love servant girls. Now is the time to get ready and prepare to stop this wedding!

Faramir had long enough hair to pull off a servant girl, but that was about where the comparison ended. He frowned a little at the dress he should be pulling on. "I hope they do not look too closely."

Perhaps Faramir would be better off to use Alexander's spell...

"But you'll look so fetching in it," Maladicta replied. Because she was a horrible person shaped creature.

Faramir looked amused at her, having the strangest feeling that he had this discussion with her before. "Not as fetching as you would, my lady."

Only a few times!

"The last time this trick was used, I believe I was chewing on a bag of coffee instead..."

"Perhaps we will find coffee within," he offered, "only you will still need to wear the dress to get within the castle."

"I could sneak in perfectly well without needing to wear one." Was that sulky? Maybe. Just a tiny bit.

"I'd make a better serving boy."

REALLY.

"As would I," he laughed, "but it seems they only wish for serving ladies within the castle."

"Nubile serving ladies?"

That's all noblemen ever wanted, in her experience.

Faramir eyed the dress more warily. "Perhaps I should find an alternative means to enter."

That could only be responded to with a pinch on the behind. "I'm sure they'll find you perfectly suitable, Lady Faramir."

"Hey now!" Faramir protested, attempting to catch her hand. "I shall enjoy seeing you in this dress!" Not as much as she would enjoy seeing him in it.

"I will pull it off with aplomb. But only for the good of Alexander and his lady love."

A beat.

"I still don't see why we're not allowed to simply storm the castle."

"Because a castle is not easily stormed," Faramir pointed out. "Perhaps with your strength, we would have an edge, but there would be too much time for them to harm the princess."

Maladicta sighed as she held up the one black dress. "I prefer that to dresses."

"We shall burn them after," he offered, trying to contain his amusement at her familiar reluctance. Perhaps they should have find her a dress with more lace.
