“Someone trying to create a distraction, I would think, one that seemed to work quite well. I believe the drug used was Heartmelt Root, which I’ve been told is pretty harmless ... well, apart from the embarrassment it might cause, but I’m glad you’re both okay nevertheless,” Gabriel offers with...

OOC: Yeah, I realised you’d mixed it up, but for once I decided not to say anything. :) “Ah, well then, I guess I’m left with little to say, except to bid you adieu as well, my mysterious mademoiselle,” Gabriel remarks with another courtly bow and a good-natured grin, “Even if I am left with...

“Ah, well that sounds like something I’d do well to avoid,” Gabriel chuckles, trying to lighten the moment. “Well, whatever the cause, there’s nothing to be done about it now, though I hadn’t heard he’d been dosed with anything beyond the Heartmelt Root. Did the healer discover it after I was...

“Indeed, he was gone not long after I reached him,” Gabriel concedes. “Contravira Extract? What’s that my lady, and why would he have a dose of it in his system?”

“I’m afraid I don’t, but I would surely like to hear what it is they say, from your perfect ruby lips, my lady,” Gabriel says, with smile and a courtly bow. “As for the man who died, Meleagant Degorre was his name, I am bothered by why he died when none of the others have. I suppose it may have...

*Gabriel just listens for a while after replying to Tristan, content for the time being to let the big musketeer run the show as he contemplates Meleagants death. Once they start talking about disguising Jacen as Marie though, he excuses himself and heads downstairs, going to the cloak room...

“Well, I do what I can, my friend,” Gabriel chuckles, “Though tonight is the first time I’ve had to rebuff a lady’s advances because of another’s actions ... hopefully she’ll thank me for my restraint later.”

“Well, I did call for a priest, when I checked on Meleagant,” Gabriel remarks. Picking up Anne, he carries her over to Zoe, and puts her down gently next to Elise, “Watch her please Zoe, she’s been affected by the same thing as Elise,” before he follows the still unnamed woman upstairs.

“I beg you pardon my lady, but I don’t want you dozing off, otherwise people might think I’m not man enough for you,” Gabriel teases, continuing with their earlier banter as he watches for any further signs of drowsiness. Looking up for the briefest moment, simply to see who he’s speaking to...

Gabriel shakes her rather roughly, concerned that if he lets her sleep she won’t awaken, “Now, now, lovely Anne, it’s not time to sleep. Wake Up! Wake Up!”

Gabriel places his hands on her shoulders and pushes her back gently after only a moment, smiling as he says, “Any other time, I would be more than happy to kiss your for as long as you’d like, lovely Anne, but you are not yourself and I’m afraid you’ll hate me and yourself later if I give in to...

“Hello there, lovely Anne, you know don’t seem quite yourself at the moment,” Gabriel smiles in return, his brow creased as he wonders if her condition is from something she’s ingested tonight. “Have you eaten or drunk anything while I was away, my dear?”

As Meleagant’s pulse stops, Gabriel calls out, “Some help here, a priest if there’s one about, as he seems worse than the others and beyond my scant skills,” before he moves on, knowing there is little he can do. “Lucky girl,” Gabriel thinks with a grin, as he passes Elise and Zoe. *If Valerie...

OOC: Altered the previous post again, as it doesn’t seem to be having the desired effect no matter how I word it. :p “No intention of making it count for anything, why the satisfaction of besting you with this rusted piece of crap as you called it, is more than enough to regain the lady’s...

16/29 hp “What nonsensical fetish would that be? I just deplore the mistreatment of women, no matter their status. As for being friends, well while I don’t think it likely, who knows what might happen in the future, as I’ll consider this matter concluded once the duel is over.” *Having...

“Well done lads,” Colmarr calls, “Grondar, Denther, get down there and see if that is the refuse barge it seems. Also, take a look and see if the captain’s remains are there, as I wouldn’t trust Sam as far as I could throw him.”

“Believe what you will, but your arrogance towards anyone you consider to be of lower station is why your words have no value to me,” he says with a grin. *Trying something less powerful but more direct this time, Gabriel thrusts straight at Meleagant, hoping to penetrate the man’s defenses...

16/29 hp *Gabriel grimaces in pain as he’s forced back a step by the massive blow, blood flowing freely from the wound.* “I have no interest in an apology from you anymore Meleagant, that went by the wayside when I turned my back on you, as I find your words so unworthy that an apology from you...

“Your arrogance really has no bounds, does it Meleagant,” Gabriel chuckles, before adding, “Fine, I accept your terms, let’s get on with it then.” *Gabriel heads out into the courtyard and prepares himself to use the Debreuil blade, removing his outer jacket so just his shirt will be damaged if...

“Well, a gentleman would not refer to any lady as you have, sir, so you needn’t fear on that score. As for challenging you to a duel, why yes, I believe I did, so shall we head outside and cross blades? I’m sure we can find a spot where we won’t disrupt the party,” Gabriel replies, looking for a...
