It had been a week since certain... events. Arthur's position had been reinstated, and he had very, very subtly informed his father that he really did not want to know any of the details about his marriage bed.

Ahem.

(It had been harder than he'd anticipated to keep a straight face, which was probably relief.)

Now, King Uther had ordained a feast in Arthur's honour, to celebrate the return of his titles. The servants in the castle preferred to refer to it as the 'Thank-God-I-Am-No-Longer-Married-To-A-Troll feast', though none of them would be caught calling it such out loud. Perish the thought.

There was plenty of wine, there was plenty of food, and as the night went on, the nobles loosened up -- which meant the servants got to dip into their fair share of drink, too.

It was a good night.

[[ for they who are here! ]]

No one had been stupid enough to give Francine a tray of drinks to serve, but she did have fruit. Half of which may or may not have disappeared into her mouth during the course of the evening.

"Grapes? Melons?"

Why she was still asking that after the first response from a courtier who'd had three too many glasses of something, even Francine couldn't tell you. Probably because she'd had at least one too many glasses of something.

Francine sighed deeply. "Nobody wants my melons."

"Well yeah, Merlin had some. But I think he was just being polite."

"Oh please. You love him when he's not polite." That was supposed to come out 'You'd hate it if he was,' but oh well.

"You so do. You looooooove him. 'Cause he's sassy." This is the level of snark you get when you talk to the brunette one, Arthur.

"Mmm, melon tarts. That sounds good." What was the question? Oh, yeah. "That you're a romantic in the closet."

No, Francine. Closet romantic.

"I am not! I only had two drinks!" Three. "You take that back!"

"There's nothing with wrong with my melons!" Say that a little louder, Francie. Maybe the dragon didn't hear you.

The world would be a sad, sad place if inebr-- inebr-- drunkitude actually made Francine smarter.

She looked down at the tray. "Melon is slang for mel--"

......

.........The world was a sad, sad place.

"NOT THOSE MELONS, YOU BIG ...PRINCE...DORK!"

"Oh God." Dignity. Dignity at all costs. The correct answer there was 'of course I did, do you think I'm an idiot?'

Then again, he might just answer that question.

"Katchoo will kill them if they try anything," she settled on.

"I'm not giving my melons to someone ELSE!"

.....See, now you got her on the slang, Arthur, it's no fair switching back to talking about the real ones.

"Those are just for Katchoo!" ...And the many, many people she would undoubtedly end up accidentally naked in front of during the rest of her life.

"I'm not being hysterical." Francine...ate a grape. What? She wasn't touching the melons now. "And you're...still a dorkface."
