Such strange fellows they were, these men from foreign lands.....mind she had met others who she had truly not understood in more ways than just their attire and speech. At least they were making an effort to impress......pondering just why as she led them towards their rooms.
Then the awful moment when they were both upon the floor, ruffles rather ruffled and legs entwined, arms flailing about......oh my.....she really had to still her laughter then. How awkward a moment this was! Her instincts were to aid them to their feet but she though better of it, lest she too would become entangled in the ruffly mess!
"Oh M'Lords.......do be careful, we do nae wish ye to be harmed whilst ye be our guests! "
They brushed themselves down amid a puff or two of peculiar powder and the mumbling was evident they were not amused at all.
A few more steps would find their rooms, ajoining with clean bed linen a warm fire burning in the hearth and refreshments laid out on a small table. Their luggage had been delivered while they had been received by the Queen. She curtsied once more and hoped they would be comfortable, informing them that dinner would be served in a short while.......giving them time to recover and rest.
As she closed the door, she could not help but allow a little giggle to escape into her hand, quickly lifting her skirts and making her get away!
((Took the liberty of placing you both here to refresh and re powder! lol ))
