Sagramore enters the main room with just a hint of unsteadiness, and finds a good spot by the messageboard where people usually tack up notes and such. Thereunder he stands, and with great dignity and aplomb announces, "We have a solemn quest. A quest which God Himself could not dispute nor all His Angels turn asunder. It is a quest for which

"...I beg your pardon?"

Happily, "You heard the man. It's a matter of great solemnity so I'll thank you not to smile at me. Look sober, I pray you."

[all_that_grace]

This is not so much a smile as Courfeyrac's best are you for real? face. "What on earth are you doing?"

[le_desirous]

Shhh. "Is it not entirely evident upon the viewing? Can you not discern the ultimate and noble purpose merely by observing the knights who have shouldered this grand challenge? Dear boy, I realise you were born some several hundred centurions after my own poor body had turned to dust, but isn't a quest evident when you come upon you?"

[bravegoewin]

"Oh good luck with that quest, sir. It will make a change from bullying half-grown boys, I suppose."

I'm sure she'll regret this. But oh how you need a few more girls in this post. And she hasn't met sagramore "on stage," as it were. and mainly i can't stand it that you lot have all the fun AFTER I AM ASLEEP.

"I don't bully him, he bullies me," with great dignity. "Have you talked with the wretched boy? He follows me around looking for opportunities to make trouble with me because his father killed me in a fair fight, which to be entirely honest with you I think means I have more of a right to follow him around than the other way. I mean round. Frankly it's all very ridiculous." Wobble.

XD I'm sorry this is her first on-stage introduction to him. He's generally a lot more charming. WELL DON'T EVER SLEEP THEN.

[bravegoewin]

In truth, she is a very fair person, and observant, too. So looking at him now, she observes:

1) he has a point that she agrees with, basically, much as Melou has stolen her heart.
2) he has given her a very polite answer when, seriously, she shouldn't really have expected anything better than a leer.
3) he is wrecked.

"You would not get so dizzy if you did not feel obliged to demonstrate the meaning of 'around.'"

[le_desirous]

"I am not in the slightest dizzy," Sagramore says, although he is attempting to find a wall to lean on. "I am prepared for any eventuality. I am even prepared to go through with the business of hanging myself, if that proves the only way to make a point, which to examine my lord Sir Gawain's lack of approval it may be. I really however do protest any suggestion that I may be in any way intoxicated because Sir Dinadan gave me a great deal of grief over the brandy and he will probably continue, all things taken together, as that seems to be in his nature." He pauses for a moment in this highly grandiloquent and frequently stumbled announcement and looks at Goewin as if for either approval or sympathy.

Palomides has already half-risen from his seat by the time Sagramore finishes his monologue--a quest! He can feel his blood pounding already--and then his face falls. "No other objective, then, than the procurement of prostitutes?" He tries not to sound as disappointed as he is.

[scoffandjest]

"It is a noble quest, good sir! You needn't look so dismayed."

[sir_palomides]

"But it sounds a simple task."

[scoffandjest]

"Is it? Wonderful! We haven't been able to find any."

[mancalledspade]

Congratulations, knights; you've actually gotten Spade to laugh, a quick bitter bark of a laugh. "To pay with what, gentlemen? The pleasure of your company?"

[le_desirous]

"You don't think that'll work?"

[mancalledspade]

"Don't call 'em whores, if that's all you're offering. Bad policy."

[le_desirous]

"But isn't the general idea that knights should be truthful?"

[crimson_sugar]

T: The two whoers in my roster were loud. Erhem.

Sugar is without Sophie - the girl is possibly at her lesson with Pascal, or in Niko's care.

She stops short when she hears this - and stares at the two men a split second before she continues on.

The fact that she heard this and felt that it was about her disturbs her quite a bit.
