She smiled and toyed with her glass. OOC: Is that a tag for Galahad?

"And I am eager to see it for the first time, with it's high high walls," Lancelot said with a sly grin to the side, "The sooner we retrieve what we need the better, I think."

"Well, there's no harm in talking is there?" Galahad leaning away from her under the pretense of grabbing something from his plate. "Oh no, conversation is what makes a man better than other men. Besides the ability to wield a sword, of course. But any brute can learn to fight if he tries hard enough. It takes a man of noble birth and a certain demeanour to learn the art of conversation with a lady." She smiled sweetly and laid two fingers on his wrist. Even though Sir Bertilak was close, he appeared not to notice, and was conversing with Sagramore, a bit further down the table.

"Perhaps you shouldn't do that." Galahad said uncomfortably, shifting in his seat. "I'm sure it is upsetting to your husband." He stressed the last word.

Sir Bertilak seemed to have gone deaf. He didn't even look at his wife, or at Galahad.
"But why not?"
She trailed her fingers up his wrist.
"I am not some seamstress with fingers hard from sewing all day long."

"Normally conversation is fine." Galahad said quietly. "But this one has become rather, improper, for lack of a better word."

The woman giggled and leaned closer still.
"Improper? I hardly think so. Neither of us has done anyhing we might be reproached for. Oh, sir, you are far too innocent!"

"And I am eager to see it for the first time, with it's high high walls," Lancelot said with a sly grin to the side, "The sooner we retrieve what we need the better, I think." "I agree," Morgan said. "I am sure my cousin of Cornwall will give us the aid we require." She saw the lady attempting to flirt with Galahad, and the husband's seeming ignorance of the fact. "Your ppoor brother looks quite distressed," she whispered.

"Too innocent? In my belief it is impossible to be too innocent." Galahad said growing ever more uncomfortable.

"Is it?" The lady asked. "But there are some things that are pleasant that you cannot be innocent for. You know the story of the Garden of Eden, I presume?"

"Yes. A tale of temptation and it's consequences. I learned several valuable lessons from it." Galahad smiled, slightly more comfortable with this topic.

"Did you? Then have you never heard of the felix culpa? The fortunate fall. Mankind lost its innocence after the Fall, but it gained experiences it would never have had otherwise. So in the way, the Fall was necessary and beneficial, do you see?"
She smiled sweetly at him.

"I have heard of the theory." Galahad said dismissively. "But I do not believe it. The fall was the original source of sin, and little good can come of sin."

"But there are different kinds of sin," the lady said sweetly. "Murder, yes, that is a grievous sin indeed. As is treachery. But sins of the flesh, such as Adam and Eve felt after they ate from the Tree of Knowledge, I do not think that was so wicked after all. Lust at least serves a purpose. It helps us to procreate."
