Why would I try to use such a power as flattery. I only speak nothing but the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;That is precisely what I ask! There must be something you want of me \u2014 for I know that not everyone is Camelot likes me. That would be absurd.&#8221; Summer nudged her horse ahead of his a touch and frowned exaggeratedly. &#8220;Do speak the truth, my lord, and no more of this flattery. I am immune.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She wasn\u2019t, at all, but she didn\u2019t need him feeding the shy and forlorn hopes buried in her heart, either. Sometimes she wished he was less nice, that she understood less of what drove him in justice and battle. \u2018Why do you have to be someone I could love?\u2019 she thought.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>\u201cPerhaps, but not everyone in Camelot likes me either.

Rounding a corner, she vanished from his view, and nearly ran headlong into a fully-armoured knight standing in the middle of the road. Her horse reared, and she shrieked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>sonofpendragon: iamthefirechild: sonofpendragon: iamthefirechild: sonofpendragon: &#8220;Don\u2019t be, this\u2019ll be lots of fun for us, not everyday one goes exploring.&#8221; &#8220;This is entirely too much flattery.&#8221; She bit at her lips, trying not to smile and ruin the joke. &#8220;I grow suspicious of your motives, my lord.
