Gwynn's lips twitched as she noticed his eyes, but said nothing... and didn't smack him. After all, he had brought his eyes back to her face all on his own this time.

"So what do you think of Fandom, Pete?"

[forgottenpants]

"Well, I'm sure I do not yet know. It's a very odd place."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Gwynn nodded.

"I agree with you there. I've been here three months and I'm still dreadfully confused about it. Two nights ago, there were several odd beings putting on a show in the common room on the third floor."

[forgottenpants]

"Odd bein's? How do you mean?"

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

"The older students called them Gremlins... and there was a silver box thing that seemed very friendly. No one else in the room seemed shocked by this."

[forgottenpants]

"A friendly . . . box. You're goin' to have to show this stuff to me. . . . I have not yet been here long enough to become acquainted with the many fascinatin' new devices they've got lyin' about."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

"If we see the box again, I will definitely point him out to you," she promised. "So what is it like where you come from?"

[forgottenpants]

"Dusty, mostly. You never been to California?"

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Gwynn shook her head. "No, this is the first time I've been out of Briton."

[forgottenpants]

"Well, it probably looks all diff'rent now, anyway."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

"We could probably manage a trek to go and check out your California."

Gwynn had little concept of how far away this California was... or how it might look different.

[forgottenpants]

"Yeah, well, I'd need to figure out how to get me a horse, first."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

This made Gwynn perk up.

"Horse? You ride?"

[forgottenpants]

Pete looked confused. "'Course I ride. What self-respectin' person doesn't?"

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Gwynn shook her head. "Very few people here seem to ride," Gwynn said woefully. "Pippi is the only other person I know here that knows anything about horses."

[forgottenpants]

"My 'older brother' seemed surprised every time I brought up gettin' a pachyderm as well." Pete shook his head. "A man just ain't a man if he don't have his horse and his piece."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

"I had to leave my horse back home." She looked at him in confusion. "His piece?"

[forgottenpants]

"His weapon of choice?"

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

"Ah!" Gwynn nodded. "Yes, your weapon of choice is very important to have with you."

[forgottenpants]

"Unfortunately, the school's administration and I do not see eye to eye on this matter."

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Gwynn smiled. "They didn't see eye to eye with me on it, either."

[forgottenpants]

"You carry a weapon?" Pete's eyes, now properly affixed on Gwynn's face, brightened considerably.

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

Gwynn nodded. "I am excellent with a sword and back home, only my father has ever bested me with a bow."

[forgottenpants]

"Like the indians use? You are truly a lady after my own heart. Ever try a crossbow?"

[notafairmaiden.livejournal.com]

"I don't know what an Indian is, but I was starting to learn how to use a crossbow from Miho over the summer and decided that I really must get one."
