Welcome Sir Nicholas

Dearest, Nicholas, I truly do not wish to anger Elizabeth. But I cannot let her insult me!

Okay ... I will tell thee. *Pulls a large but tasteful emerald ring out of my bosom that exactly matches the color of your eyes*.

Dost thou like it?

I do my Dearest very much *smiles fondly at her*
*Slips the ring on and admires it a moment*

I will treasure it always, but know my darling that I need no gift save your smile, or your loving touch

*caresses her cheek with a slender hand*

Nicholas, please don't be upset, but thou should eat a sandwich. Thou art too thin! I will not have Elizabeth thinking I starve you.

Upset? Not I, not so long as I have you at my side. *smiles*

you find me thin do you *laughs* You dont intend to fatten me up do you, I think you will find it a hard task indeed.

I will try! Here *brings out a massive plate of french food, oyester rockefeller, lasagna, triple-bacon-cheeseburgers, nachoes, suckling pig, pastrami sandwiches, sodas, ice cream, doughnuts, beer and a plate of candied fruits*. Eat up!

*laughs* you spoil me!

*picks a small sampleing of everything so as not to hurt her feelings.*


I am quite sure I heard somewhere that Oysters were an aphrodisiac *flashes her mischievious grin*

I heard the same thing. I also heard that the French language performed similarly. Voulez-vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?

*nearly chokes on an oyster* you are right it does have that same effect

*whispers* My Lady it is not nice to tease me so *smiles slyly*

Teasing? *Leans in over your back. In the process touching my breasts to your shoulder, caressing your chest with my hands and whispering in your ear so close my lips touch it.* I don't tease, if I want to do something, I"m not afraid to ask.

*swallows hard, his breathing quickened*

*turns around in her arms to face her*

Oh my dearest, I would love nothing more, but you are married to another are you not? Would it not place you on a scandlest position?

It is for this reason I have never ventured to even taste your lips

Our marriage is null and void. I was drugged, and it was a Protestant ceremony. I am twice a widow.

Taste my lips, and anything else you'd like.

*takes a quick glance to ensure they are alone*

*his heart pounding, he leans in to gently brush his lips across her*

*Elizabeth wanders into the room, stifles a gasp, turns on her heel ushering her ladies frantically away from the room and closes the door.*

*When the ladies do protest their desire to take their meal in the great hall she bellows at them that they shalt take their food in her chambers where they have been neglecting their sewing of late*

(OOC: Busted lol)

I fear we have brought scandle to ourselves despite my desire not too. I thought to steal but one small kiss tis all and have offended our hostess. We must not let our emotions cause us to act unbecoming when in the prsence of others.

*frowns* I shall have to apologize to Elizabeth

(OOC: This is so much fun!)

*When you brush my lips with yours, I pull your head in hard so now we're full on making out*.

I will apologize to no-one. Ever.

*allows himself to warm to her touch for several minutes*
* though it torments him he pulls away gently*

Not here my love *smiles breathlessly*

we must act appropriately lest we cause scandle to ourselves. Elizabeth granted us her blessing against her better jugdement becasuse I wishes it so, but I will not flaunt it in her face

*Flies into a rage* I need not her approval! I am a QUEEN, no subject of hers!

*Cools just as suddenly* But it is most kind of her to give us her blessing, so will have to give her an extra-large gift.

*replys gently*

I do not ask you to seek her approval, I only advise that we act with repect to her in her household and do not opening flaunt a love that she doth not approve

Okay, je comprend. Parlez-vous francais, mon cher?

bon *smiles*

seulement quelques expressions… par exemple


Je t'aime mon bel

*charming smile*

Je t'adore. Tu est ma couer, ma vive. Tu est toute dont j'ai sur la terre.

*Clears throat* Well ...

*smiles fondly*

Well indeed

*ventures to sneak in another kiss*

oh I hath almost forgotten ... I have something for you as well ...

*bats eyelashes bashfully* Would you like to hear it ?

*responds VERY well to your kiss*.


Ooh! I love gifts!

*silently feels bad about chaseing Elizabeth out of her own hall and wishes she would return*


tis but a trifle... *frowns* I do not posscess the means to shower you with expensive gifts *looks down at the ring shinging on his finger*

all I have are my talents, such as they are. This is for you my sweet Marie ...

She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o'er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling place.

And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!

*swoons*.
