Summary:


Bouncing up onto her toes, Titania craned her neck in an attempt to see over the crowd. People of all ages scurried this way and that, intent on their tasks. Normally, she would have stopped each one that caught her eye and asked questions, complimented a dress or sought permission to feel the weight of a weapon. The swirl of activity and colors made her smile and then laugh. A passing man in a grey tabard grinned at her and she blew him a teasing kiss.

Ten minutes later, the dark-haired actress had given up on trying to find anyone or anything in the melee and had snagged a young man who had been intently studying a tattered notebook. A sweet smile and deftly fluttered eyelashes earned her some directions and she made her way towards the practicing grounds. She only hoped Nyx was having better luck in trying to find Percival.

"You totally kicked his ass!" was Nyx's declaration, which wasn't very ladylike or chivalrous (were ladies supposed to be chivalrous? Whatever - she was actually neither, so it was a moot point) but it got the truth across. Then she grabbed Percy's face and gave him a playful smack of a victory kiss, too bad the other guy hadn't been so lucky!

But it was still cool to see. Percival was obviously in his element, which was nothing short of impressive. "Can you teach us to be as cool as you with a sword someday?"

"I'm more a dagger and poison kind of girl," Titania admitted blithely. "The two of you can bash skulls. I'll be inspiration... And back-up. They had ninjas back in the olden days, right? Or is that just bad B-movies where you get knights and ninjas?" Her mischievous grin grew and, deeming Nyx's action adequate permission, she reached out to tangle her fingers in Percival's hair. It was a firm hold but not painful and, with a gentle tug, she pulled him forward and down so that she could capture his mouth in a sweetly chaste kiss.

Then she released him and laughed merrily. "Whatever. The important thing is you're our champion!"

Percival accepted the victory kisses from the goddess and the Fae Queen the same way he accepted kisses from mortal women: he blushed. "Thank you, my ladies," he grinned at them. "You were both awesome inspiration."

"Two ladies, eh, Sir Alun?" Duke Ranulf teased, pounding him on the back. "You stud."

Blushing again, Percival shrugged and focused on Nyx and Titania. "Um, I can't teach daggers or poison, but I can teach you how to use a sword, if you really want to learn. It's kinda what I'm supposed to do as a knight, teach."
