"Adventurous? I suppose that's a good way of describing it," I replied thoughtfully. "But there is only three years between us."

"Is age that significant?" I asked curiously, knitting my brows a little.

"In most cases," I replied, thinking it over. "He would need to be a very special twenty year old for me to consider marrying him."

"Ah," I said. "You're talking about the difference between men and women though." I raisied a brow. "Do you doubt that I have the abilty to be a Sovereign Duchese of Kusheth. I was Sovereign of Namarre and managed just fine."

"If one of my father's illegitimate children was sitting here instead of me, then I would greatly doubt your abilities," I replied blandly. "I trust Gervaise knows what he's doing."

I quirked a brow momentarily. "I'm sure he does." I replied softly.

She had no idea how ruthless my family could be. Oh well, she would learn. I hoped.
"I know you are," I replied with a smile. "Confidence is a positive attribute."

"Please try not to become overconfident though my dear," I replied. "I would hate to have my trust in Gervaise's judgement misplaced."

Slimey witch. "Oh no need to worry there." I said softly, showing nothing of the feelings inside.

I smiled a little wider. "Should I expect you to be checking up on me?" I quirked a brow at her.

Not if you want to keep that pretty face. "Some how I think I'll manage." I said with a playful wink.

I think she might have accomplished hiding her feelings if it wasn't for the wink. It was far too jocular.
"So any requests for your wedding gift?" I asked. I had made my point, better to move the conversation on now before she lost face.

"I'm sure you'll get us something dazzeling." I said smiling. "You know Gervaise, get him something that he would like."

I grinned. "Then I think I might have something in mind. Do you like to hunt as well?"

"Oh I couldn't tell you. It would ruin the surprise," I replied with a smile. "I'm surprised he hasn't dragged you out hunting yet."

"He has, but I'm not exactly the type to take down a stag." I chuckled. "I like riding though, and getting a new outfit for the occasion." I grinned a little.

"Well, it was part of the package so I had to accept." I added with a chuckle.

I smiled, trying to keep easy about the subject. But it was difficult. Even after all these years knowing it could never happen, it was difficult. "The hunting or the proposal?" I jested.

I chuckled. "The hunting, though theres not much about Gervaise that I can't accept." I beamed a little, thinking on my future husband.

Well, her words answered more than one question I had about their relationship, just by the way she grinned like the Cheshire Cat. It made it even more difficult to be calm in the face of her obvious happiness.
Jareth, think of Jareth.
My smile came easier with that thought. "I'm glad to see you're so happy," I said.

She didn't seem to be interested in my side of the conversation, and I could figure why. "Anyway." I said absently waving my hand to her. "Of course you're invited to the wedding, and of course your...companion...the Duc d'Aiglemort is welcome as well."

"Wonderful, he'll be honoured to be invited," I said. Now that he was at the forefront of my mind instead of Gervaise, the tension in my shoulders eased.
"And you can call him my beau, we are courting after all," I added with a wry smile.

"I wasn't sure, I didn't want to imply anything that wasn't there." I said smiling softly. "How long have you been courting?"
