[ He's not the only one taking a walk, Morgana is also taking the time to walk about the streets although with her face almost stuck in a book of about France itself. It's interesting, and educational. If she was forced to pick, she would definitely say this is by far one of her favorite places the castle has turned itself into. ]
[Gwaine's a bit distracted by the mopeds and scooters and cars so he only notices Morgana when he's about to crash into her. He stops so abruptly he almost drops his portfolio.]
[ Her head snaps up instantly and she yelps, her own book crashing to the ground with the sudden stop despite her efforts to catch it. (She has to remember she doesn't have magic now) ] Gwaine! [ She lowers herself to scoop up her book, tilting her head curiously at his portfolio. ]
Yes, they're- [Whatever he was going to say is lost when a car honks. He drops the portfolio in favor of trying to grab the closest object that could serve as a weapon.] What is that?!
[ Which happens to be her umbrella, not exactly a worth weapon to slay such an evil beast. She picks up his portfolio for him, doing her best to stifle a laugh. She shouldn't laugh, she was just like him a year ago, but it is funny watching him freak out over a simple car. ]
It will not harm you Gwaine, it is called a "car".
[Laugh now. You won't be laughing when he succeeds in stopping it by breaking off one of the rearview mirrors. And yeah, he's still brandishing that umbrella like a sword.]
[ That is true, she'll be dragging him away before the police get called and wondering why she is trying to help him. :| ]
Yes, it is to warn others that they are approaching. [ Among other things but whatever. Seeing he isn't trying to attack it just yet, she's going to start flipping through this portfolio. ] The are capable of causing great harm--
What about h-oh, that. [That's what you get for rifling through his stuff, woman. He makes a face and gently tries to close the portfolio and take it back.] You are not supposed to see that.
[Not because Arthur deserves privacy, but because no one needs to be scarred by seeing...that. That is cruel and unusual punishment even for someone guilty of massacring a good portion of the knights.]
[ She doesn't fight him, mostly because she's honestly unsure how to properly react. Torn between being greatly disturbed and very amused. She settles for something in between with a dash of utter disbelief. ]
[He opens the portfolio again to peek inside. He makes another face. He's also very much torn between finding it absolutely hilarious and being scarred that he saw that much skin when he really didn't want to.]
He has. I believe these photographs are unchanged. There is a bigger version of one of these on a board overlooking that street. [He points to one of the busier streets.] I saw it from my window. It has his head, but that is not his body.
[ She peers down the street trying to see if she can spot one of those boards... out of morbid curiosity, of course. Not that she honestly wants to see her brother in nothing but underwear. ]
Strange. They must have edited the picture somehow. [ She shakes her head. ] Truthfully I am amazed they even used one of those pictures.
Such words could send a girls heart aflutter. [ And they're obviously doing something as she steps closer, free hand reaching out to idly play with his shirt. ]
[He takes her hand in his, raising it so he can kiss the center of her palm. He nuzzles it slightly before leaning in, letting the words drop right onto her lips.]

I... almost wish I hadn't.

I think he's put on weight.

I do not understand this world and some things I do not want to.
[He shakes his head as if trying to dislodge something. When he looks at Morgana again, he relaxes. A small, knowing smile plays about his lips.]
Particularly not when I have a vision so fair before me.

She lets out a laugh, tilting her head slightly. ]
I wonder if should I be flattered by your words, when I am sure they have been used many times before for other pretty faces.
