*scurries past, looking furtive and nervous*

*has a book tucked under his arm*

[lalaith_]

::peers at you and recognizes you after a few moments::

::almost does a rather un-ladylike fangirl squee::

::notices the book under your arm and arches an eyebrow before greeting you in a secretive tone::

Hullo, Sir Ar-Pharazon! Everything alright , I hope? Do you remember me? ^^

[tar_calion]

*jumps and immediately hides the book behind his back*

*clears his throat and looks as noncholant as possible*

*gives a respectful bow/nod having failed to recognise you minus the bushy hair and ever-present cat.*

Have we met, Lady?

[lalaith_]

::curtsys in return with a big smile::

Indeed we have, Sir. I'm Lady Lalaith.

::pauses for a moment::

Are you having a baby?

[tar_calion]

Oh! My, haven't you grown? ;) So how's adult life treating you?

*cough!splutter* NO! I mean, yes, I mean, my wife is pregnant, yes. >.

[lalaith_]

::shuffles on her feet, turning a bright shade of red::

Good, I suppose. :D

::pats her forehead and laughs in slight embarrassment::

Absolutely, yesyes! mmm, congratulations! That is a thousand different shades of won...itisyourchild,isn'tit? <.

[tar_calion]

*grins* You suppose? Bah! This is the best time of your life. Old enough to be taken more seriously but still young enough to be free of major responsibilities. Enjoy it.

itisyourchild,isn'tit?

Ofcourseit'smine! :\

*coughs* *rubs the back of his neck* :S

Yes. Anyway. Thank you. It's certainly a...very exciting, um, thing, you know...lot's to look forward to...Apparently.

[lalaith_]

::beams::

That is the best advice I've heard in a very long time. Thank you, Sir.

::coughs as well and looks sideways::

You looked so panicked and dour - I thought something was wrong. Forgive me? :]

Hmmm. My mother used to say that a child born out of love brings luck and happiness. ^^

[tar_calion]

Really? Well. Any time. :)

Oh, don't worry about it, it's just a little complicated. You weren't to know.

a child born out of love brings luck and happiness.

*nods* That's nice, I'll try to remember that. Truly, that's a lovely sentiment, thank you.

::thinks:: Shame about your family's totally luckless history but we won't go there.

[lalaith_]

You're most welcome, Sir.

...can I come around to visit you sometime? I'll come bearing...um...gifts. :]

...and I'll be finding out from history books real soon. :\

[tar_calion]

*nods* Of course you can visit, Caranthire and her charges are always welcome. ;)

If a fort is really your scene of course... >.>

[lalaith_]

Do you have dungeons and ancient devices of torture? >:D

[tar_calion]

Yes...But don't tell the wife. I do have some rooms in the basement that I don't think she needs to know about.

[lalaith_]

::zips lips!::

I won't! You don't just happen to have an iron maiden, do you? I'm really interested in examining one of those.

[tar_calion]

No, those things are a little bit too...what's the word...fatal. I prefer more subtle methods.

[lalaith_]

Hmmm. I'll see whatever you have, then. It is never bad to learn about something new. >:]

::thinks::

Say...you haven't seen a fat and very clean ginger cat waltzing around here somewhere, have you? IseemtohavemisplacedMrs.GingerSkittles.
