[QUOTE="JimAde, post: 2723667, member: 16739"] Caspar bolts upright in bed, rubbing sleep from his eyes and trying unsuccessfully to smooth his hair into place as Gariana strides about the room describing his day. As she explains that he'll be going to the tailor, he takes an appreciative sip of the coffee and sighs. He smiles with his eyes closed, enjoying the sensation of the hot coffee swirling around his newly-restored teeth. Suddenly his expression shifts as he has apparently come to some internal decision. He throws off the blankets and stands, his long nightshirt falling into place, and executes a courtly bow. [COLOR=Teal]"Madame,"[/COLOR] he says, [COLOR=Teal]"I thank you for your hospitality, and I assure you your generosity will be repaid. However, it seems I am still at somewhat loose ends, so I will gratefully accept your kind offer of your tailor's services."[/COLOR] He sips again and adds, [COLOR=Teal]"This is excellent, much bolder than the brew we have back home."[/COLOR] [I]When the horse bolts, it's best to act as if you wanted to go that way[/I], he thinks. He sets down his cup and says, [COLOR=Teal]"I shall get started immediately."[/COLOR] "Come along, Larynx," he adds imperiously. [COLOR=Teal]"I make it a policy never to disappoint a lady with my appearance."[/COLOR] He strides from the room to get ready to go out. [sblock]Masleh: We don't have to do details of the previous week. Your paragraph sums it up nicely, I think. I don't want to make this game the Caspar Hauser show. :)[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
