1 Sword in the Stone

[excalibured.livejournal.com]

[Arthur sounds politely bored] Hello. Since it appears we are to be stranded in this place for quite some time, I think it would be best if I introduced myself. My name is Arthur Pendragon, and I've been told a few of you may have heard of me. I look forward to meeting you, and since he seems to be otherwise absent, I arrived with my manservant Merlin. Speaking of...

[He then sounds amused, though there's an edge to it. Also he's ignoring the fact that it's well into the afternoon] Merlin, the funniest thing happened this morning. I awoke to find not only no breakfast, but no sign of you. I do need to be dressed, as unlike some I don't intend to laze about all day long.

After that, you can pick up this room, it's gotten dreadfully messy.

[Scoffing]

Ever heard of doing stuff yourself?

[excalibured.livejournal.com]

No, I'm afraid that's a completely foreign concept.

[wasinthedark.livejournal.com]

Then you're in for a real treat here.

[ffff, a tone that's just a little insubordinate BD;] But, sire. I was doing what you asked and trying to find information without the use of the journals. I've been leaving it lying on my desk untouched until you just called for me through it.

[excalibured.livejournal.com]

No, you were doing as you wished. I said you may find information, I did not say it would take place over your other, considerably more important duties.

[Ignoring the whole journal thing, sharply] Well? What are you waiting for?

[occultly.livejournal.com]

I thought you wanted to get out before anything else.

[u_u] It takes a moment to walk from my room to yours.

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

Manservant?

[excalibured.livejournal.com]

Yes. I take that to mean you are unaware of what one is?

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

I can figure it out...he works for you as a servant. The way you said it just sounded more like 'manservant who isn't very good'.

[excalibured.livejournal.com]

What else would he be?

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

Despite only being here a few days, you seem really calm. [brat senses tingling-]

It's nice to meet you, Arthur. I'm Rinali.

[excalibured.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately, this is not my first experience with magic and the sorts of things it can do.

It's a pleasure. Your name, while beautiful, is rather unusual. Where are you from?

[redresolve.livejournal.com]

Then, at least in a way, you're fortunate. It's a lot to take in at one time if you haven't dealt with it before.

Thank you. I'm from China.

[nomoreemokid.livejournal.com]

Arthur and Merlin...like in the legend?

[excalibured.livejournal.com]

I'm assuming the answer is yes. If the legends take place in Camelot?

[nomoreemokid.livejournal.com]

Yeah, King Arthur of Camelot and Merlin the...uh, wizard guy. ...I don't remember any of them saying he was ever a manservant though.

[fiveby-five.livejournal.com]

Seriously?

[excalibured.livejournal.com]

Which part has prompted your question?

[fiveby-five.livejournal.com]

The names.

Hey, if you're driving stick to get some dude to dress you, whatever gets you off.

[lady-girasol.livejournal.com]

[robovoice is go!]

Do you require assistance?

[excalibured.livejournal.com]

[A slight pause]

Yes. I require breakfast, it doesn't seem as if anyone here is of much help.

[ninjasinspace.livejournal.com]

Hands are a fundamental biological component. Got two.

[SO HELPFUL]

[excalibured.livejournal.com]

[OMG, it's a person with an actual mental affliction, WHAT TO DO?! When in doubt, be a prat! Said slowly]

Congratulations...I also have two hands.
