Six Duels

[tangodelamuerte]

My mood despite the attentive care of Juliet and the doctor Martha hast sunk with the heavy weight of a new woe unto the City. Caspian, a youth much like a diamond in the rough whom is as dear to me as blood, has been spirited away from this place. Would that I should be glad that my cousin remains. Poor indeed be the day when I am alone, or Juliet

He's back home, at least. I guess that's a good thing.

[tangodelamuerte]

Yes and no, sweet maid. Hard be it to smile and think happily in the face of all that could have been and can never be. Such a man was Caspian to have a multitude cry out all at once for his loss to us.

[adamantined]

I didn't say people shouldn't be sad about it. Just trying to look on the bright side.

[tangodelamuerte]

Perhaps you know the Lady Juliet? If there should be a dark day, her words and gentle smiles inspire light to break through most gloomy overcasts. This day she is occupied. My mood therefore is changed methinks.

My manners are misplaced. How is the lady this day?

[adamantined]

I think we might have talked once? I don't know her very well if we did.

I'm just peachy.

[tangodelamuerte]

If it so please you, Juliet should have more ladies of her few springs as friends. I can only give her so much company.

The glowing heat of the season is gone. Still there are peaches? What wondrous marvel.

[adamantined]

I can get that. A lot of my friends here are guys, too. Girls should stick together.

It's just a way of saying you're pretty good. Sometimes sarcastically.

[tangodelamuerte]

Yes, do and take great care. Some youth with not but mischief in every thought could have unfortunate plans for young ladies.

Pleasant though unheard of. I thank thee for the brief crumb of knowledge. I will try to find use of this phrase.

[adamantined]

I'm tougher than I look.

You'll have to let me know if you do.

[tangodelamuerte]

Far be it from I to dispute such things. Any lady however strong deserves a man of equal capabilities.

Indeed I shall! So oft I hear that the words I speak are of a different shade than others.

[adamantined]

Well you should learn a few more and then get back to me. I'm kind of being kicked off the computer and to bed by pain of grounding. I'll talk to you some other time, though!

[tangodelamuerte]

Goodnight and goodnight.
