Christmas is coming up, and, because I'm going to have a lot of free time this week, and I want to write more with Gwen, I've decided to do a request post! So basically, here's how it works:
Step 1: You pick what you want (topic, characters, setting, prompt, etc.)
Step 2: I write you something! It could be a drabble, or a fic, or something inbetween. We'll see!
Step 3: Read, and enjoy. Hopefully.
So, request away!

DISHES.
Date: 2010-12-24 09:47 am (UTC)She was walking through the courtyard with her daughter when she heard a commotion on the other end, and, when she saw Arthur taking off his glove, and all of her sons encouraging him, she knew that something bad was about to happen. Gwen marched across the courtyard, and, when she saw the look on his face, she had a feeling she knew exactly what was happening. Decorum be damned, she was not going to let Arthur fight another man just because he’d been looking at her. Again.“ Arthur!”
Arthur’s head turned towards her, and the look on his face changed from something she could only describe as “annoyed jealousy” to happy to see her, to “….oh, crap.” She’d used the same voice when saying his name that she used on the children when they were in trouble. He swallowed. “Hello, Guinevere.”
“Do I even have to ask?”
Arthur shook his head. “Probably not.”
“Go inside.” She pointed toward the closest door, and looked at her sons, who were all staring at the floor, hoping she wouldn’t notice. “All of you.”
It didn’t take her long to decide what to do with them, after that. Arthur’s jealousy was a problem, and if she had to punish him to get him to knock it off, she would. And she couldn’t have her sons acting like that in public.
“I want all of you to go to the kitchens after dinner tonight, and help with the dishes.”
“But Guinevere—“
“Don’t you “Guinevere” me. You’re washing dishes. All of you. And hopefully it’ll teach you some manners.”
She wasn't sure it it actually did teach them manners or not, but she did know that it kept Arthur from challenging men to duels over her for a long time.
