Testing

[likes_the_odds]

It's been awhile since you added a new voice to that head of yours. I guess I'm flattered.

So is this a test? Am I voice testing?

What should I do? Should I sing a song? I know a few, but I'll have to start drinking first and the lyrics aren't for the faint of heart.

I think it might be best if you save those songs for the tavern.

[likes_the_odds]

Merlin! Just in time. Songs are always better when there's a chorus.

I can teach you the words. It's easy. I know a song about a one-legged bar maid that will drive you mad.

[servant]

...How, exactly, would one work in a big with only one leg? Was the other one wooden?

[likes_the_odds]

Nope. But she had an incredible sense of balance. So the story goes.

[cassie_of_troy]

I should very much like to hear one of your songs.

[likes_the_odds]

I didn't know ladies fancied those kinds of songs.

[cassie_of_troy]

I'm flattered you think me a lady. Most men consider me a Gorgon.

[likes_the_odds]

A gorgon? With the slithery things coming out of your head?

Where's your slithery things?

[destinedtobeunpopular]

Why do I have a feeling people would rather not hear you sing?

[likes_the_odds]

Why would you say that? Everyone likes a good song!

[destinedtobeunpopular]

How's your voice?

[likes_the_odds]

Doesn't matter. After a few ales you'll think me a song bird.

[youwillgotohell]

Do us all a favor, Sir Gwaine, and keep your singing to the tavern.

[likes_the_odds]

If it troubles you, I'll be sure to sing extra loud.

[youwillgotohell]

Is that any way to treat a lady? I thought Camelot's knights boasted more chivalry than that.

[likes_the_odds]

I think you're a very special exception.

[onceandfutureprat]

I think you shouldn't sing at all.

[likes_the_odds]

I think you should enjoy yourself a little more.

Like Merlin. He knows how to have fun.

[onceandfutureprat]

Drinking in the tavern with Merlin all day isn't that appealing for me.

...your Gwaine brings all the Merlins to the yard?

[takeyouapart]

I'll try to keep Arthur out of the way until you're finished, then.

Damn right!

[likes_the_odds]

I'll bet he's never sung a song in all his royal life.

[takeyouapart]

I've definitely never heard a note out of him, all the time I've known him.

so late to this

[leonsurvivor]

Gwaine, there are ladies present.

that's okay!

[likes_the_odds]

I think they've gone.

You want to hear the song. Admit it.

[leonsurvivor]

I think I'll live without it, actually.
