Part 132: Frederick A

Come, Frederick. It's time for your lessons. And don't bother trying to hide this time. You're terrible at it, you know.

Come on, didn't we have fun last time?!

Doing what? Wandering about camp, bothering the others for no cause? Or do you mean when we laid in a field, aimlessly staring at clouds for hours?

Both! It was amazing, right? Rejuvenating? Life changing?

It was exhausting! In all my years of training and combat, I've never felt so tired!

A clear indication you need to relax more! You're too in shape, Frederick.

.....

...Did you seriously not enjoy ANY of it?

Well... I can't say it was... entirely unenjoyable... The time we spent exploring was a new and valuable experience.

Oh, goody! I'm so happy to hear that.

If you are happy, then I am happy, milady.

Awww...
