Levi/Iris Convo 1

* arthurianNoblesse began pestering mercurialTraceur
arthurianNoblesse: HEllo IRis.
mercurialTraceur: Greetings and Felicitations to you, my good friend.
mercurialTraceur: I trust you are having an excellent day?
arthurianNoblesse: YEs, I Most certainly am.
arthurianNoblesse: MAy I Inquire as to the excellence of your day?
mercurialTraceur: Oh, quite a Proper sedate day.
mercurialTraceur: I have made three new napkins for an upcoming dinner party with my Auntie.
arthurianNoblesse: AH, that sounds lovely.
mercurialTraceur: It is quite Proper.
mercurialTraceur: Auntie says that my Tea Ceremony studies are quite lacking, so we will be working over such.
arthurianNoblesse: MY sister has said something of similar effect regarding my parrying, so I suppose we will both be striving for self improvement.
mercurialTraceur: Oh heavens.
mercurialTraceur: Parrying?
arthurianNoblesse: YEs, it's a defensive technique employed in sword fighting.
mercurialTraceur: It seems to me that being lacking in parrying leaves one...
mercurialTraceur: Impaled?
arthurianNoblesse: YOu're quite right, a deficiency in parrying ability often results in an abundance of stab wounds.
mercurialTraceur: Which is quite Dire.
mercurialTraceur: So work hard on them!
mercurialTraceur: We wouldn't want you stabbed.
arthurianNoblesse: I Shall certainly endeavor to gain proficiency in them, as no good knight would allow himself to be stabbed.
mercurialTraceur: Splendid! I am enthused to hear such.
mercurialTraceur: I am not entirely certain what the Internet Social Protocol is for such situations.
mercurialTraceur: So I will wish you the very best instead.
arthurianNoblesse: I"m happy to please you so, but if I may, I would suggest that we move to happier topics than my hypothetical impalement.
mercurialTraceur: Of course. That would be no trouble.
mercurialTraceur: I actually had a small matter that I wished to inquire about...
mercurialTraceur: Somewhat
mercurialTraceur: In a Gray area, of propriety.
mercurialTraceur: Is armor Proper?
arthurianNoblesse: I"m afraid I May be misinterpreting your query, but I Would say that armor is certainly proper for a knight.
arthurianNoblesse: ONe could almost say it is more proper than ordinary clothes.
arthurianNoblesse: AMong armors there are certainly a range of propriety as well, from dull but serviceable to ornate but poorly suited for combat.
mercurialTraceur: What about for a Proper Lady?
arthurianNoblesse: FOr a proper lady?
mercurialTraceur: I was going to ask Auntie... But you are a Proper Knight! Quite a better source.
mercurialTraceur: Yes.
arthurianNoblesse: WEll, I Can't recall a great many proper women who wore armor, but there certainly were some who did so.
mercurialTraceur: Perhaps under a Proper dress?
arthurianNoblesse: THe most notable example that arrives from my memory is QUeen ELizabeth I.
arthurianNoblesse: IF I Recall correctly there are some who say she wore armor to motivate her troops.
mercurialTraceur: Hum
mercurialTraceur: A Queen is certainly Proper.
arthurianNoblesse: I"d imagine one would be hard pressed to be more proper a woman than the queen of ENgland.
mercurialTraceur: One might say the most Proper!
mercurialTraceur: Yes indeed!
mercurialTraceur: I will have to dwell upon this matter.
mercurialTraceur: I don't suppose there is a useful guidebook to Proper Armor about somewhere?
arthurianNoblesse: I"m afraid there is none I Can think of at this second, I Will have to delve into my literature in search of one.
arthurianNoblesse: I"ll be certain to inform you should I FInd something I Believe will prove useful.
mercurialTraceur: Wonderful.
mercurialTraceur: Now, I believe you began this Internet Chatting Experience.
mercurialTraceur: Did you have something you needed from me?
arthurianNoblesse: AH, no, I Merely wished for some company whilst I was gardening and I Saw that you were available for engagement in such.
mercurialTraceur: While gardening? How does one achieve that?
arthurianNoblesse: MY garden is fairly well established, so there is little to do beyond pruning and watering, therefore I may place my computer near me and talk while I work.
arthurianNoblesse: OFten I Will listen to music, but sometimes it is nice to speak with my friends.
mercurialTraceur: Well, I am always quite happy to provide you with conversation.
mercurialTraceur: And if you ever have any inquiries on Propriety, I am quite in your debt.
arthurianNoblesse: ACtually, now that I Think about it, there is something I Would inquire.
mercurialTraceur: By all means.
mercurialTraceur: A Proper Lady is always ready to assist.
arthurianNoblesse: I"ve just become aware of an unfilled space within my garden and was hoping you could provide me with inspiration for filling it.
arthurianNoblesse: TEll me, what is your favorite flower?
mercurialTraceur: My favorite flower.
mercurialTraceur: Well, I hope you will not consider this overly vain of me.
mercurialTraceur: But I am quite fond of my namesake.
mercurialTraceur: An Iris.
arthurianNoblesse: AH an IRis!
arthurianNoblesse: THat would be perfect!
mercurialTraceur: If you'll recall, I used to employ the same shade a my Signature color.
mercurialTraceur: But someone told me it was quite Bothersome to them.
arthurianNoblesse: TRuly a shame, I Quite liked that color, although your new choice is also quite pleasing.
mercurialTraceur: It is standard.
mercurialTraceur: I considered that being overly Gaudy would be quite Crass of me.
mercurialTraceur: But yes, it is a pity.
mercurialTraceur: But I wished to be considerate of my er...
mercurialTraceur: Foreign friend.
mercurialTraceur: I am not certain if you every had a chance to speak to her.
arthurianNoblesse: I"m afraid I Have not yet had that pleasure, perhaps you would be able introduce us some time?
mercurialTraceur: I will see if Miss Caelia will be able to do so.
mercurialTraceur: I will need to read up on the Proper Protocols for introducing Foreign Dignitaries to a friend.
arthurianNoblesse: OH my, is she a dignitary?
mercurialTraceur: After a fasion.
mercurialTraceur: A Representative of her er... People.
mercurialTraceur: She really should explain the matter.
arthurianNoblesse: Very well then, I Shan't pry.
mercurialTraceur: Not at all!
mercurialTraceur: Secrets are terribly Unbecoming of a Lady.
mercurialTraceur: But it would be quite Crass to speak of her when she is not present.
mercurialTraceur: Try to speak to her at alienatedConscience
mercurialTraceur: If you have a moment.
mercurialTraceur: But I should see if we cannot have a Proper introduction.
arthurianNoblesse: OH, I must apologize, it was not my intention to insinuate that you were engaged in matters of unladylike intrgue, I was simply stating that I would respect her privacy.
mercurialTraceur: Not at all. Quite fine.
mercurialTraceur: Here, allow me to demonstrate.
mercurialTraceur: :)
arthurianNoblesse: OH my, it seems the time has gotten away from me whilst we were chatting, my sister is about to leave for the weekend.
mercurialTraceur: Of course, of course.
mercurialTraceur: I will commence considering the matter of Proper Armor.
arthurianNoblesse: AGain, I Will let you know should I Find anything on the matter.
arthurianNoblesse: Good bye for now IRis.
mercurialTraceur: It would be most appreciated, my good sir.
mercurialTraceur: And Farewell to you as well!
