Suppose there are many who envy your position. But the way I hear it, you're regarded very fondly among most of the court. Even a few young ladies wishing you might take to the dance floors at the feasts - is there such a thing precluding you from taking part in that? I'm certain I'll be expected to do the same, once I'm ready to mingle among polite society with enough grasp of the customs. A month's time from now - isn't it?
A round on that floor will surely have it racing, enough to hear I should think.
[hawk isn't usually much for such pleasantries, which is the ironic part. but there is a piece of him that wants to know and understand tim laughlin on a deer level - to learn his hopes and dreams so he might learn how to serve them as his future king.]
Oh, I'll certainly have you. So long as you don't oppose.
The book - from a friend to pass the time in camp. Admittedly, I never finished all of it.
[he skips the part where it was from kenny, one of his prized possessions and an offering to soothe away boredom and fear and keep sweetness alive among dying men and the stench of the battlefield.]
Well. Then I'll eagerly be awaiting your judgment. Wouldn't dream of taking anything else to heart until you've had the final say, but the attendants are a fine addition to these halls.
Is that an invitation? Will you plan to meet it in person then, the next time my hand itches to wander for a pen?
