"Gaining Strength and Going Homeward..."

Me: God, Rosemary Miles makes me feel unclean.
Her: What?
Me: She writes Arthuriana. It's--it's not very good.
Her: What's wrong with it?
Me: Well, like, what I was looking at to-day? She was talking about Gawain, and I couldn't believe what she'd done to him. It's just wrong; Gawain isn't like that. Gawain is--there's a reason they call him the maiden's knight.
Her: Ohhh. She made him gay?

...

Me: No! No, no, that's not it! Honestly, that would scare me less. I mean, he's just the model of chivalry and more than that of courtesy and she kind of made him into a stupid, vulgar, randy goatherd type. It was very disturbing.
Her: Oh.

Me: Ahahaha gay Gawain shhh don't tempt me.

<3! (That makes sense. I've only had Nanni summarise it for me; I haven't actually read it myself, so I'm kind of feelering on what exactly it's about.

(Oh, Lord. XD That sounds exasperatingly awesome.)

*raises eyebrow, grins* Sounds like Nanni's read the same things into it as I did, looking at her Gawain...

(It is. I keep threatening them with a screenplay of the whole mess.)

Sadly, this makes me glee. I'm glad. ^__^

(Ohoho. I hope they beware.)
