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.

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?]

[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. ]

yanks it

[bloodings]

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

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

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.

[bloodings]

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

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

like seven??

[bloodings]

@PONYTAIL busy with what? ill help.

[ """""help"""""

don't fucking trust her Chiron. ]

goddamnit mordred

[horsepowered]

[He has some suspicions about her work ethic.]

Currently, kneading bread and helping move massive sacks of flour.

[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]

@PONYTAIL oh.

boring.

[bloodings]

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

besides, i dont need fools as followers.

Kingship Status: "It's Complicated"

[northerndragon]

A kingslayer? Not something to boast about.

A king needs fools as followers as much as he needs wise men. Though if someone is to rise up against him, I'd say it's better if it's the fools, as long as he's not a fool himself.

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

un: @DIEDHARD

[mylawn]

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

[horsepowered]

Only if you object to being given a loaf for your efforts.

[bloodings]

what kind of fool would object to free food? that doesnt make the work any less of a chore.

[horsepowered]

It does not. Then again, I don't think you'll find much else that isn't a chore.

[bloodings]

theres not much use for a sword in this city. nobody has the guts to challenge me to a fight.

[ Because most people don't just do that?? ]

[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?

[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.

[horsepowered]

[Mordred, go start your own Fight Club at this rate.]

...I would recommend body guard services, but with the way things are, I suspect that might put you at odds against most of the common people living in this city.

[excelsus]

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

[bloodings]

[ SHE WOULD IF SHE COULD ]

right. and i dont just wanna protect some rich asshole. common folk might be boring, but theyre more bearable than that.

[horsepowered]

[So really all it requires is someone explaining to her the concept.]

Especially even if a portion of the rumors about what the ruling class here has done over the years.
