"Nay, I've never been to sea but I think the waves would turn me green." Alexander says taking the Ironborn's hand. "Men must fight harder, when there is no where to retreat but into the sea," Alexander says grabbing his side, "and it seems that the practice yard is no subsitute for real action."

"An impressive bout Sers." Francis says to the two men, as Ser Alexander dusts himself off. "It seemed skill was not the much for a reaver's ferocity this day. Perhaps in the melee we shall account ourselves better. Do you know how its going to work? I understand there are red and green cloaks, but won't there be only one champion?

"Well I am not sure its been made clear yet, I just hope I am not knocked out so soon that I don't get a chance to work up a sweat," Alexander says.
"Lord Varner, if you have nothing further, I'd like to get some cold presses on these bruises they will serve as a good reminder tomorrow to keep my guard up. " Alexander turns to Eriik Coldiron, "Lord Coldiron, well met, I'll be glad I will not have to worry about your axe until the final stages if I am so lucky."

Seth Falgrave and his senseschal, Florian approached Lord Varner.
"Francis." Seth greeted warmly, holding out a hand. "Tis a pleasure."

Francis shakes Seth's hand warmly, "Lord Falgrave a pleasure to see you again. Pity that incident back at King's Landing had to end the way it did. I suppose I can't talk my way out of everything."

Seth laughed. "No, I suppose not. I was surprised at how quickly it escalated. It got out of hand fast."
He shot a thumb at his shadow. "This nervous man is my friend and sometimes-caretaker of Greycopse, Florian."
Florian smiled sheepishly and offered a hand to Lord Varner.

Francis shook the man's hand as well. "Pleasure to meet you Florian. Do you serve Lord Falgrave at Greycopse or with the Gold Cloaks?"

"Greycopse, Lord." He practically whispered. He had a very soft voice. "I would not make a very good member of the City Watch, my voice has never borne authority." He smiled.

Francis smiled, "Nor mine. Let's us leave that for such bold spoken men as Lord Falgrave," Francis says, partly in jest.
"Are you gentlemen entering the Melee, and on which side? This is my first Melee, and I'm not certain I'll escape unbruised."

"We seem to have been left out of the lists, as our names were not apparent." Seth mused. "I will speak with Randal about it, however. It wouldn't be much fun to leave the Greyfolk out of it just because we are so reclusive." He winked.
"But in any case I should hope we are on your side. I saw you man fight Erik. He seems quite the beast, and I will admit I have never been much of a sword." He was only partly joking. His sword skill was not exactly laughable, but it wasn't bordering impressive. "A shame to Ser Giles that I was much better with the bow." He laughed.

"Yes, regrettably the Varner men appeared to have been split somewhat down the middle. My own Castellan is on the other side, as is Ser Alex's friend Ser Gilbert. I suppose in the end it will be every man for himself. That's usually the way of the world." Francis said with a laugh.

Seth looked to Francis and then Florian. "Well, if it comes to that, I promise not to knock you down too hard." He smiled. "Though now that I have said that it's likely to go the other way."
He patted Florian on the shoulder. "This one seems to be more like minded to yourself than I, Francis. Full of clever stories and complicated passages of speech, very roundabout." He seemed proud though. Florian, however, flushed, and tried to look as though he was not. He hardly looked the sneaky type.

Francis smiled, and clapped the boy on the shoulder. "The world requires all types Florian, don't let anyone tell you different. There is honors available for clever people too. Though usually the brave, strong ones like Lord Falgrave get all the women."

Florian snorted, and Seth looked a bit embarrassed.
"Yes, of course." Seth agreed, smiling despite. "You can just see me fending them off as we speak. My! Look at this one!" He announced, pretending to draw his sword as an effeminate-looking man walked by.

OOC: effeminate-looking man is legendary with sword, has vs sword (+10), magic armour (+10) and a huge cock (+20). He challenges Seth to a duel to the death.

Hope you all are well and happy.
