Kappa Kappa Gremlin, Friday Afternoon

"This week, we were going to concern ourselves with the sport of hockey," Arthur started, "But as I began to work on the exercises we were going to tackle, I realised that some of you might not know what it is." Neither did you before this week, Arthur, but nevermind that. "So today, we shall be watching some first. I'm told this," and he shook the DVD labeled Knockout Hockey: Fights and Brawls in demonstration, "Contains a reasonable depiction of the sport."

He cleared his throat. "There is pizza and drinks," he said, "I hear it is customary to have both of them while watching, so help yourself. Any questions? No? Good."

Arthur liked things when he was in charge. He did.

"It helps if you take more of a distance," Arthur advised. He was an old hand at this by now.

Which would explain why the volume was also lowered to a point where it didn't completely offend his sensibilities.

"We don't have this," he said. "We have bloody gleeman who flaming juggle."

"We don't have this either," he said, dryly, "But thankfully no jugglers, either."

"You don't have jugglers?" Mat replied. "That's so sad. I can teach you."

Yes, Mat knew how to juggle.

Arthur shot him a look. "We have jugglers in the kingdom," he said, "Just not at court."

If Mat thought Arthur was humorless, he should try Arthur's father.

"Do you have a court bard instead?" Mat guessed. "The gleeman I traveled with thought well enough of himself to be a bloody court bard."

"My father feels that most bards are of such poor quality that they sap a man's will to live," Arthur said, with a shrug, "And he hasn't got much concern for having one in the first place."

"Those must be some flaming tone deaf bards," Mat said, sounding almost sympathetic. "Your father? Not big on fun in general, I imagine."
