"Yeah! I mean, birds seem to really like my hair. Are there any other animals out here?"

"Oh, all sorts. Foxes, badgers, squirrels, rabbits, mice, frogs. Just to name a few."

"Well. Hopefully I don't have a fox nestling himself in my hair, do I?"

Eliza laughed and shook her head. "Not that I can see, anyway."

Meanwhile, Gawain nestled himself deeper in this tall beast's head-fur. It was nice. Very nice. Very black and curly, too. Perfect for a nest. Maybe he should come back with a friend of his and they could-- Wait. He tried to stand experimentally. Nope. The hair was too thick. He was stuck.

"It looks like Gawain's gotten himself caught. It seems he loves your head too much." Eliza smiled, reaching up and gently untangling the bird's feet from Alain's hair. "Just think if this had happened with Arthur."

"I'm pretty sure he would have ripped all of my hair off while trying to fly out."

"Yeah, he gets freaked out easily," she said, lifting Gawain away and placing him back with the other birds. Eliza reached up with her other hand and smoothed down Alain's hair where Gawain had been nesting.

Alain felt himself blush at her touch. "Hey, Eliza..."

"Yeah?" she asked, quickly pulling back her hand and busying herself with the pouch of crumbs.

A mental image of his father talking to him about his eventual betrothal came to mind. Blushing, he tore his gaze away. "Just... thanks for taking me out here."

"It's no trouble. Actually, it's nice to have company for once. I mean, I have Gabe and Aslan and Arthur, but they can't exactly hold a conversation."

He sighed. "Honestly I wish I could stay out here with you forever."

It was Eliza's turn to blush now. She cleared her throat. "Forever? That's...a long time. Wouldn't you miss your father? And what about becoming king and fixing things in Camelot?"

"That's where 'I wish' comes in. It's not like I can stay here. Camelot would sink into civil war if there were no clear heir. Too many people trying to assume the throne. I have to take it to avoid a lot more conflict when my father finally decides to drop dead."

Eliza nodded. "Yes, I see..." she sighed. "Well, based on what you've told me about your plans, I think you'll make a good king."

He sighed. "Kings have a duty to go to war, you know. I can't fight."

"That would be nice," he replied. "Mind teaching me how to fight off rabid princesses?"

Eliza gave him a small smile. "I don't know about that. Fighting off princesses would mean having to dodge and/or apply various social situations and courtesies. Not exactly my specialty."
