I am not sure if I feel tired because of transfiguration today, or because of the weekend, which was a great success, I think. Though it does not help that the classrooms are so hard to find!

One of the suits of armour heard me talking to myself in French on my way back from Defence Against the Dark Arts yesterday, and would not let me pass until I could prove I was not in league with Napoleon. Zut alors! ~~I am sure our châteaux has never been so rude to a guest~~

Warded to fellow foreign students
I know that this is a big place, but it's almost impossible to find somewhere to fly away from Hogwarts students desperately practicing. Is this driving anyone else mad?

	Not just better weapons, but better strategy too. Anyway, if French chivalry is so superior, why is it that the most famous knights who are considered the embodiment of that code are King Arthur's? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And yet the most lauded of these is of course, Lancelot du Lac, a Breton. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So your ideal of chivalry is the bloke that shagged his best mate's wife and basically brought the downfall of Camelot. Nice. Gawain and Galahad are more lauded as showing the ideals of chivalry, especially when it comes to women. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I did not say he was my ideal, just that he is lauded as being such. ~~And what could be more French than what he did?~~ Personally, I feel treating a woman as a person and not a prize is a good deal more commendable. And sometimes you just need a good shag. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He's not lauded as the ideal of chivalry, that's the point. He's basically known as a wife stealer and a failure of the ideals. Somehow your response doesn't surprise me though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He is in the Stanzaic Morte Arthur. Why am I arguing this? I never even liked Lancelot! I blame him What is that supposed to Why ever not? And you never answered my question. Why did you wish to know which suit it was? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There are varying stories that contradict each other, what is more enduring is the perception in people's minds. Because it justifies you to yourself. I can thank him for continuing to be on the alert. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thanking him for delaying, threatening an insulting me is your British chivalry at work? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I never claimed to be chivalrous. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's hard to be so when someone is making comments about how 'superior' they are and looking down at my home. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Has all the rain here washed away your sense of humour? It was a facetious comment ~~to begin with~~, and your home, which I so far actually quite like, suits and staircases aside, threatening me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If that's supposed to be funny then French humour needs a bit of work. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	As does Scottish hospitality. Truce? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	True Scottish hospitality is different from this. On this matter? Fine. (Reply to this) (Parent)
