The knight gave them a knowing smirk, leaning in as the maids leaned closer, eager "It was when Master Elric brought Clint to town…" he began dramatically,
"On the way back to the estate when I noticed their carriage… moving strangely. just for a moment, just a peek but Clint was definitely above Elric—"
The maids immediately squealed in hushed giggles, eyes sparkling. "And???" one pressed, bouncing slightly on her heels.
He looked around, lowered his voice even more, clearly enjoying the attention, when—
WHACK.
A hand slammed down on the back of his head. He jerked forward, nearly dropping the girl in his arms.
Thankfully, the maids caught her before she could hit the ground. All heads turned quickly, gasps slipping from their lips.
Standing there with arms crossed and a raised brow was Maiven.
Her voice came out in a huff. "Hmmppp. Elric and Clint? Nooooo."
