La Taverne (KOTF IC Thread)

[OverKnight]

Hugues nods amicably, with three free drinks already in him.

We seem to be drinking on the largesse of the Dauphin, or at least that's what I told the barkeep.

[AussieGiant]

A man heading out the door suddenly jumps to one side as a now bright yellow Medoc bounds through the entrance.

That signals the beginning of a train of six pageboys and finally Alain. Taking up station on one of the large tressal tables he sits and proceeds to grab a handful of breast and ass of the nearest pageboy. There's a high pitch squeal and a laugh in response from the Duke.

"It seems ze place has gone dead since we started voting.

Are we mourning ze deaz of someone I am unaware of?"

[Andres]

Thierry looks at the Duke and then back at the breasts of the waitress on his lap.

I don't know about the others, but I'm busy with interesting affairs.

He squeezes the bosom of the cute girl and she starts to giggle.

[ULC]

Gaetan nearly chokes on his drink at Thierry's words, forcing him to slam his cup down and cover his mouth.

[TinCow]

de Perronne stalks into the Tavern. He barks some orders at the tavernkeep and goes and sits in a dark corner. When his beer arrives, he sits and drinks it alone. Those nearby can hear him mumbling quietly to himself.

...outnumbered 5 to 1, but still expects to gain "bargaining chips"... ...opportunity my arse...

[ULC]

Gaetan, who has been sitting in the back quietly drinking since having relayed the scouts reports to the Order, watches Perronne with a careful eye.

"Dear Perronne, what on earth could possibly trouble you at such a wonderful hour? Drink, and wipe that sour look from your face!"

[TinCow]

de Perronne spits on the floor in the direction of de Rethel.

It is telling that you would consider the announcement of treason against the King and war with Empire to be a wonderful hour. Those of us who are loyal vassals have other feelings about the matter.
