"Alanna, how could you do such a thing?" Kel screeched. Once again, for what seemed like the upteenth time, all eyes were on her. Though this time, it was intentional. "How could you be such a..a....a BITCH!?!" Alanna was standing up now too, though she was dwarfed greatly in comparison to Kel.

Dom looked at his wife worridly. "Kel, what happened?" He whispered loudly, trying to tug her back into her seat, but she wouldn't budge. She looked down at him and the tears that Alanna had trained her to call upon welled up in her eyes, perfectly.

"Alanna said that....she said....she said my chest looks bigger!" She wailed, now letting the tears fall. She covered her hands and her body shook in sobs, though the lioness knew that there was laughter hidden there.

Silence. Perfect silence, but for Kel's "sobs". Then: "Alanna, how could you do such a thing?" Thayet demanded, looking angry at her friend and sympathetic for the pregnant knight.

Alanna's eyes were wide, the same face Jon had recognized when she told her most outrageous lies, and he recognized it now. He wondered, bemusedly, what was going on. "I was simply telling her as a healer, which is my duty, to help her through her medical condition."

"Medical contidion?" Kel asked, her false rage back. "You make it sound like something is wrong with me! I'm pregnant, you, you, you......" She looked down then whispered. "Neal, you know stuff, what's an insulting word?"

Neal looked wary. "I don't know if its the best idea to supply you with words to insult the lioness, on the other hand, I'm facing a horomonally inbalanced knight who will probably-"

"Horomonally inbalanced? What is with you healers and making it sound like such a terrible thing?" And with that she sprinted out of the hall.

"I'll go, er, make sure she's ok." Alanna said, running after her.

In a nitch in the wall, the two lady knights laughed until their faces ached and their stomachs hurt. It was so entertaining to mess with the court, especially Neal. Little did they know that Dom had gone after his wife, too, and was standing before them. "So," He said, and they looked up, startled. "I'm guessing that Alanna didn't really say that to you, did she?" He said, half anxious, half bemused.

"Er, no, but don't tell anyone, Dom! It's fun and it gives me something to do." Domitan looked on the fence about the whole situtation. She kissed him, and when she broke it, he leaned forward and almost fell. "Please?" Kel said again.

"Fine." He said.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Kel was lying down in a meadow, twirling a daisy between her scarred fingers. The other hand rested on her still regular sized stomach. "Hello." A voice said to her right. She lifted her head off of the ground to see Neal. She sat up.

"Yes?" She asked, now plucking the petals off of the small flower, one by one.

"I'm sorry." He said, looking at his hands.

"Sorry?" She asked as the last petal fell. She had not forgotten what had happened this morning, but it was fun to make Neal squirm.

"I'm sorry that I said you were horomonally inbalanced." He said, defeated.

"Oh." the now petal-less stem fell from her fingers to the ground. Neal watched.

"Oh? That's all you have to say?" He said, exasperated and wary at the same time.

"Well, what do you want me to say?" She said, looking him eye for eye.

"Oh, I don't know how about. "Ok, you're forgiven, Neal." or "It's no big deal, I overreacted. or-"

"I overreacted. I overreacted? Who's the one that's yelling at their pregnant best friend because they didn't say 'I forgive you.'? It's usually implied that they forgive you unless they say otherwise, or smack you or something!" She cried, getting to her feet.

"Kel I didn't-"

"Oh, but of course you didn't mean to accuse me of anything, Neal, but you did." She turned on her heel and stalked back towards the palace

Neal sat there for a long while, trying to remember what he had done wrong.
