[Katherine is going about the simple, mundane task of sorting wool into separate colors, a job one of her ladies would have likely done for her back home. She recites an old poem as she works:]A palm tree stands in the midst of Rusafa ( Read more... )

*not in her element, *lady's pursuits, *bedtime stories of battle

[He's silent for a moment, simply listening, before smiling.]

I like it.

Moorish poetry is very simple and clear. [She says it as though she admires these traits.] Do you know they even made songs about my mother?

[Video] reflectivedawn June 9 2011, 00:00:59 UTC

She must have been a great woman.

[Video] marriedforlove June 9 2011, 00:07:11 UTC

Oh, the Moors make songs of anything. But she was indeed great. She is an example.

[Video] reflectivedawn June 9 2011, 00:08:30 UTC

Kind of takes away from it.

[Video] marriedforlove June 9 2011, 00:13:40 UTC

I don't think it takes away from it. Her song will be remembered. So will she.

[Video] reflectivedawn June 9 2011, 00:14:48 UTC

Is that the point of doing something, to be remembered for it?

[Video] marriedforlove June 9 2011, 00:16:11 UTC

No. The point of doing it is that God has willed her to.

[Video] reflectivedawn June 9 2011, 00:17:36 UTC

I see.

[Nope, not arguing this point with you today, Katherine. He's too stressed.]

[Video] marriedforlove June 9 2011, 00:19:26 UTC

She was their enemy, but they gave her respect as a queen and formidable warrior.

[Video] reflectivedawn June 9 2011, 00:20:45 UTC

Then they weren't very good enemies.

[Video] marriedforlove June 9 2011, 00:24:10 UTC

[A shrug.]

They were defeated, of course. But they had a certain honor.

[Video] reflectivedawn June 9 2011, 00:34:00 UTC

Do you ever talk of anything but war and your mothers accomplishments?

[Video] marriedforlove June 9 2011, 00:36:16 UTC

[Riku, her other choices are to speak honestly about her feelings towards her life being interrupted - or possibly crashing down over her head.

Thus, no.]

What do you wish to speak with me about?

[Video] reflectivedawn June 9 2011, 00:37:36 UTC

[Actually, he'd prefer talking about those things.]

If I brought you the wool, could you make something for me?

[Video] marriedforlove June 9 2011, 00:42:10 UTC

[She wouldn't.]

Yes, I suppose that would be fair. For the winter. [And mostly because she kinda likes you, which means she won't be picky about ew, doing work for someone.]
