( Caspian may have been born and bred as a prince, but the doting he’d suffered then is negligible compared to what he's suffered following his coming-of-age as king. He's smiling, but he's visibly flustered. And he's staring at her right ear instead of meeting her eye. It's a very lovely ear. ) Very kind of you, my lady. ( Time for a rather transparent topic change! ) Would you like a tour of the gardens? The skill of our Narnian gardeners is second to none. ( And he can foist her off onto one of said Animal gardeners. Win/win. )
it's a gift :3 we all should ask her how she does that.
A tour of the gardens sounds lovely, Majesty. [ here she will just. nonchalantly flutter her eyelashes. ] I have heard nothing but good things about them, and I believe I will enjoy them all the more with such an esteemed company.
[ the reports have greatly underestimated the king's looks after all. ]
the only true answer, says edmund -- SHE MUST BE A WITCH.
The company of our Fauns and Dryads is also very esteemed, your grace. ( A start. ) Ah, no, forgive me, I mean -- my lady. ( She's obviously much better at the royal-etiquette nonsense, wouldn't it be nice if he could hand the kingdom off to her and go seafaring for the rest of his days?
I do offer apologies for my disrepectful, dreadful, brat of a cousin, Caspian. He still has much to learn about Narnia, and that includes Narnian Etiquette.
Now, Eustance, one does not insult a King of Narnia, no matter one's personal opinion of said King. Apologize. [and yes that was a command. And one from King Edmund, no less, and not your cousin Edmund, Scrbb.]

He chuckles nervously. If only. )
...Ed why must it always be witches
Oh, my lord, there is no need to call me that. Maevelyn will suit just fine, if you prefer it.
