I suppose you are right about that. It is less tedious. But I wasn't aware you were fond of dancing.

Ah. I suppose it can't be help, what with a good portion of the camp stumbling upon that incident... I imagine you two are getting along well. You are somewhat like-minded.

[count_onme]

Well, it's something that's always been expected of me since I was young, so I might as well enjoy it, I guess?

We are! I think, anyway. He seems like a nice person.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Nobility does have a fascination with such things. I think they enjoy the distraction.

Yes. He is definitely that...

[count_onme]

That's probably it. That, and they're pretty keen on showing off to eachother. Sons and daughters unfortunately come under the category of "show-off-able material".

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Impressing other families would be important if they wished to retain a certain image. But your ability to adapt to the requirement has also allowed you to make it your own.

[count_onme]

Ah! That's a good way of looking at it. I suppose you're right, huh.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Have you selected a partner then?

[count_onme]

Not really, I'm just having fun trying to dance with as many people as possible...

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Are many here familiar with formal dancing? Or are you also offering some teaching along the way?

[count_onme]

A bit of both, I think. It makes for a good mix-up so it doesn't get tedious.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Dancing on a pirate ship must be somewhat different though.

[count_onme]

It is! It's sort of... romantic, I think?

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Romantic? That wouldn't have been the first thing to come to mind.

[count_onme]

No? I think it has that sort of atmosphere... you know? Exotic tales of far away lands and buried treasure and grand adventures...

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

I suppose it does fit the description when you put it that way. Straight out of one of those action novels.

[count_onme]

Right! Man, I used to love those.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

I've read a few, mainly the classics. Sometimes Nunnally enjoyed them.

[count_onme]

Ah, really? I think my favourite one was Robin Hood, back then...

Nunnally?

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

Ah Robin Hood, that's a favorite of many, isn't it? Seen as a criminal in the eyes of the law but a blessing to the people.

My younger sister. I can't recall if I've mentioned her to you before.

[count_onme]

That's right! It's sounds incredibly brave, if you ask me. I don't know if I'd be able to something like that.

Ah... I think you have? Or maybe that was Euphie? ... Ah.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

I don't think it's bravery so much as conviction, setting your mind to a task and seeing it through regardless of what may happen.

Euphie mentioned something?

[count_onme]

I suppose so.

Just that she had a lot of siblings. Eight? Or was it eighteen? I can't remember. It was a lot.

[thekingsgambit.livejournal.com]

I'm sure if you wanted something strongly enough, you could be every bit as brave, Albert.

Ah. Her family is quite large.

[count_onme]

I hope so. Though I also hope I never have occasion to have to find out.

You don't say.
