"Good morning, class," Camulus grumbled. If one were looking closely at his kilt, one would notice that the hem looks decidedly ragged and chewed upon. This could be one of the reasons he's scowling. Then again, he's usually scowling.

"Uill, the last two classes were spent watching the film 'Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail'. And since you lot didn't have any thoughts about it, you're going to have to listen to me talk about it for a whole class."

Camulus went on to outline in depth how the structure of the movie mirrored the structure of the Mabinogian and other Arthurian tales with its random diversions and side stories. He talked about how the Knights Who Say Ni were similar to the numerous quests of Peredur and the eternal questing for the Holy Grail. The Black Knight and the Green Knight and the Beheading Game. Then how the endings were similar in that the stories didn't really end, just sort of . . . trailed off.

Yes, he spent the entire lesson talking very seriously about Monty Python.

[[Sorry for lack of class yesterday. It was my birthday and I had an exam and was busy busy.]]

"I was very glad to see you."

Phoebe wasn't completely sure what a First Prime did, but she was just glad that he would have come for her no matter what. It meant a lot.

"Was anyone hurt?" She would not offend his pride by asking if he was hurt, but she really did need to know nothing had harmned him.

"Not that I saw," Camulus replied. "But I was only concerned with you, a ghraidh." He wasn't about to mention that the first demon they had come across had looked like her and then exploded. He did look a bit childish when he announced proudly, "I got to behead something."

Phoebe looked relieved and felt some of the tension drain out of her shoulders. She didn't know what any of the teams had faced execpt for her sisters, Cole and Angel, so hearing that Camulus hadn't been harmed at all made her feel a bit more relaxed.

"I'm glad you were not harmed, A stor," she said. "And good. I'm sure the demon deserved it."

[[OOC: Was just explaining to a friend what a First Prime was. *laughs* 'But Phoebe doesn't have the gold mark.']]

He was grinning rather wolfishly. "Oh, the demon did. I believe I beheaded right after it told me that none of us would survive the night. Especially you, a ghraidh."

Still, he was a bit ruffled that she would even think that he would be harmed. So he wasn't mentioning that he did end up with a very impressive burn on his hand.

Phoebe is obviously relieved.

"I knew nothing could hurt you, A stor, but I had to hear you say it."

He smiled at her and patted her hand again. "All that matters is that you're safe now."

Phoebe smiled back at him. "So am I."
