[Well, this is embarrassing.  Despite what a certain Falenan knight told a certain tactician at homecoming - no, Lyon never had any formal training in how to dance, and it is not at all like the footwork involved in swordplay.  She did manage to get a bit of dancing in with the Prince, but took a rather unfortunate spill a few songs in and twisted ( Read more... )

[ Don't think your injury goes unnoticed by her. She stares at her for a moment or two before clearing her throat a bit to alert her to her presence. ]

Ahem, if you don't mind, miss - may I have a look at your ankle? I know enough about sprains that I can recommend how to take care of it. And, shouldn't you have crutches with you?

[ ALL OF THE FUSSING - she has it. ]

Oh, no, it's fine. I've been resting it since Saturday.

[Yeah. Still pretty unsteady on her feet, though.]

Still, you need to take care of it until your ankle feels better. Come on, let me take you to the infirmary.

Oh, I really don't think that's...

[Yeah, and then her leg buckles under her. She catches herself against the wall, so thankfully she doesn't re-injure anything, but it was close.]

...maybe you're right.

[ Without even asking, Diana takes Lyon's arm and wraps it around her neck while supporting her weight with her other hand. ]

All right, we're going.

Sorry about this.

Don't be. How did you get your injury anyway?

It was stupid.

Go ahead and explain anyway.

There really isn't much to explain. I was dancing at homecoming and stepped the wrong way and fell on it.

That'll do it. [ Can you be more nonchalant about this, Diana? ]

I guess I should have been more careful. I'd never worn shoes like that before.

Oh! My name is Lyon.

I'm Diana Ethelbert, Miss Lyon. It's a pleasure.

Nice to meet you, Diana. Thanks for helping me out.

[Hey, look, the nurse's office!]
