this stupid mission is annoying.

they arent even feeding us properly. seriously who the hell runs an army like this? i could eat ten times what i have already. a knight like me shouldnt have to scavenge.

just waiting is a bore, so tell me something interesting. its fine if its trivial, but if its boring, you owe me a meal.

A knight?

What one man may find interesting might bore another. You'll have to tell us more about yourself.

[bloodings]

@AEGONNER thats right. im the strongest knight.

but i dont just want stories about fighting. a future king needs to understand people, right? so tell me what you think is interesting. ill still mock you if its dull, though. [ Very kingly. ]

[northerndragon]

Where I'm from, the greatest knights were Prince Aemon the Dragonknight, or Ser Arthur Dayne, or Ser Barristan Selmy. Do you think you could best them?

A king needs followers -- better not to mock. I knew a king who did that, and he was poisoned on his wedding day. They say he turned purple.

[Which is, at least, not dull, Jon thinks.]

[bloodings]

of course i am. those guys are nothing compared to a kingslayer.

besides, i dont need fools as followers.

un: @ponytail, have fun with that mordred

[horsepowered]

I found a particular tavern with inexpensive food that I don't doubt would appreciate a repeat customer.

[That counts, right?]

yanks it

[bloodings]

@PONYTAIL i cant just take your word. pay for the first meal and ill think about it.

mordred how old are you

[horsepowered]

I'm busy at the moment. I can leave funds in a specific place if you require that much.

Do knights in your world typically complain when a task proves less glorious than anticipated?

[bloodings]

@STORMBORN i do. so who cares about anyone else?

im not afraid of hard work, but poor treatment is another thing.

[dorzalta]

Duly noted, ser. Poor treatment should be reserved solely for a poor knight. Your complaints are justified, though I would advise caution with our captors. They don't seem inclined to honor status, be it a knight's, the smallfolk's, or a queen's.

I could regale you with accounts of the most short-lived war in Thedosian history. The Battle of Squealing Plains.

[bloodings]

[ Not that he can see it, but her eyes immediately light up at the mention of war. ]

@SUBUBI fun name. did one side squeal when they were cut down?

[excelsus]

Nugs do tend to squeal when you cut them down, they do an amusing little back flip as well, but that's immaterial.

un: @DIEDHARD

[mylawn]

@MODERATUS It's a matter of not drawing attention to ourselves.

[bloodings]

@DIEDHARD i get that. but theres not any fighting to break it up. we could have showed up when stuff was actually happening.

i mean, these people on the street are annoying, but they arent the enemy. i cant go all out on them. not even half out.

[mylawn]

@MODERATUS There are other things to do besides pick fights.

[pointedlook]

@MODERATUS You missed the fireworks.
@MODERATUS Would not recommend eating that much, you might end up with your head on a chopping block. They're touchy about that nowadays.

[bloodings]

@POINTANDKICK dammit. showing up late really sucks.
@POINTANDKICK but who the hell is gonna know? im not gonna eat it all in front of one person. and anyway, if someone doesnt like it, ill just kick their ass.

[pointedlook]

@MODERATUS Leaves you feeling out of scope.
@MODERATUS Just saying. Be careful. Everything here is ready to spark and catch fire.

[chariotry]

@ACHEELIES

Why not make sport of hunting instead of scavenging like a stray dog?

[clay voice] achilleeeeees

[bloodings]

not a lot of animals to hunt. you go ahead and eat rats if you want, but a knight should expect better treatment.

[minotaur pops up behind the clays who are fucking]

[chariotry]

I'm talking about hunting bigger prey! All the spoils of the rich.

While they get fat, eating to their heart's content, the poor suffer from hunger. We can make right of this wrong and you can eat your fill. What do you say? [ AKA JET AND ZUKO EP! ]

@BRUNNHILDE

[heilt]

It may have been more noticeable if we'd brought additional food with us.

[bloodings]

just enough for me would have been fine.
wheres the junk food? the variety? its all so dull.

[heilt]

Not if everyone says that.
You're in a different time. Things that you're familiar with likely haven't been thought of yet, but what you're looking for may exist in some form.
