Gawain vs Meanalfe

Menealfe laughs and goes “So, you’re a knight of the Round Table? Pathetic. I want to fight someone tougher.”
Kay looks at him, spits out some blood and laughs. “OK, bet. GAWAIN!”
Gawain comes barreling out of the bushes, having left Arthur and Guinevere cuddling and goes “What’s up, big Kay?”
“Handle my lightwork.”
“Oh, it’s on!” And Gawain doesn’t just beat Menealfe. He breaks his spirit. This man lets Menealfe rest, lets him get back on his horse in full health, and clean sweeps him in the joust three for three, then beats him in a sword fight just to make sure Menealfe knows his place. This man smashes Menealfe into the dirt, lifts him up, dusts him off and beats him down again.
Menealfe is having the worst day of his life and is like “OK, I give up. You win. I’ll take this girl home.”
