Given that there are so many of us here now, I was hoping someone might be able to help me. Are any of you particularly skilled in archery? I've found myself in possession of a bow but admittedly it's not one of the skills I trained very hard in.

If anyone were able to give me some guidance in it, I would be entirely grateful. I've not got much to offer in turn, but I will find a way to return the favour.

When and where?

[ Jumping straight to the point here. He's angry, he's an excellent archer, and he needs something to take his mind off of everyone leaving him. He's jumping straight to the point here. He doesn't feel he needs to prove his skills right now, but he will if need be. ]

Why, of course, sir Loras, I should be most glad to.

[sweetwater]

What skills are you trained in?

[triplerose]

The lance and the sword, mostly.

[triplerose]

I think I should be ashamed at how surprised I am. I'd no idea you were skilled with a bow.

[sweetwater]

And I assume those aren't anachronisms for you?

[triplerose]

I don't know what anachronisms are.

[sweetwater]

Old-fashioned, belonging to a time much before your own.

[triplerose]

Ah. No, they're very commonplace where I'm from.

[triplerose]

You're one of the last people I would expect to offer assistance.

[sweetwater]

[ how does she keep finding medieval people? she'd like to think they're out of place but these days it seems more like Cheryl is out of place. ]

Of course. Are you a knight? A prince?

[reek]

[ He just wants to show off lbr ]

Are you complaining?

[triplerose]

A knight. Royalty was never my calling.

[triplerose]

No. Though I'm a bit wary.

[sweetwater]

Too much pressure?

[reek]

Be wary all you like, but I've offered my services and you'll not find a better marksman.

[triplerose]

No princesses or queens to marry to. Well, I suppose now that I think of it, I was betrothed to the queen mother.

[triplerose]

And how did you get to be so good?

[sweetwater]

Was? What happened?

[triplerose]

I died.

[ The nice way of saying she murdered me. ]

She never wanted to marry me and I never wanted to marry her. She was a truly awful person.

[sweetwater]

I'm sorry.

My brother Jason died. He deserved better. You must have too.

[triplerose]

In a way, I believe I'm better off dying than living.

I'm sorry to hear about your brother. I hope one day he finds his way here.

[reek]

The same way you got to be a knight. Training and practice. I was trained as well as all of Lord Stark's children, but I can best them all with a longbow.

[sweetwater]

i saw him in the sleeping pods. I hope he'll wake up soon.

Who do you miss?

[triplerose]

My king. He died too early, when he also deserved better. I've heard he's sleeping, as well, though I've not seen him.
