Haha, thanks, man! I used to dread writing dialogue, but now I really enjoy it! And I love combing through the synonyms of common words to find their less common cousins.
A delightful tale of love, hate and cheese, I love how Francais it is. You sir owe us another tale such as this down the road, and of course dedicated to your beloved Kate also.
I loved this story, you ever considered writing murder-mystery musketeer tales like this or something?
Man, I was really hoping you of all people would enjoy this story, and I'm so thrilled that you did! I'm almost as obsessed with Musketeers as I am with Spartans (😉), so you can definitely expect more Musketeer tales in the future.
'Course I did, hahaha, I just hope we do get more Spartan stories also. I'm glad you're obsessed wtih the Mousquetaires, I'm currently reading Dumas's novel and am loving it (en francais).
It shouldn't have, but it did. I like it, it differentiates them, well since the Mousquetaires are French, and Elves ought to be Celtic, I support it. (I know Elves come from Norse Myths but I like 'em better when Celtic jk)
I was so preoccupied with other things yesterday that even though I opened the story and gave it a preemptive like, I hadn't had the chance to read it yet.
I'm happy to see my instincts were rewarded. The twist here isn't unexpected, but the way it's handled has a darkly comedic tone to it that's just wonderful. I literally burst out laughing at work! Good thing no one was around so I wouldn't have to explain it to them haha!
Killing off Arno was a last minute audible, but I always knew I wanted it to end with like the ONE cheese that she really loves missing from the basket. I can't tell you how gratified I am to hear that you appreciated that as much as I did.
A great tale! I hoped Rosalind managed to enjoy the cheese even if there wasn’t her favourite... and the image looks like a great collection of prompts! I’m tempted to give the pin one a try.
Thanks so much! I've been wanting to write something silly about fascinating a woman with cheese for awhile now, and this story just struck me like a bolt of lightning.
I vote we bring 'mawkish twaddle' in common jargon. Great dialogue/insults in this piece.

The cheese thing is so true. My wedding cake was a stack of cheese wheels. That's love.
The ending made me laugh. Great job.
Thanks very much! I really enjoyed writing this one.

It may (or may not) surprise you to learn that the Elven Rangers in my fantasy universe are inspired by the Musketeers.

I know one woman that would definitely work on.
This lady seems destined for disappointment. Love the use of cheese!
“You may fascinate a woman by giving her a piece of cheese.”
Now that’s a euphemism I haven’t seen before.

The punchline is only made better by the fact that you came with the receipts to prove that excerpt is 100% real.

Brilliant! Loved the lavish dialoge and the end, didn't expect both to die in the duel. Shame about the reblochon.
I had a hard time figuring out the end of the story, and then I thought, "This guy's kind of a silly hopeless romantic. He should die."
😂 Brutal.
You're right though.
This was so fun! And yes, cheese is the best pick up line. 🧀
Yes, you do fascinate me with cheeses... and in other ways, too.
Cheese and chai: the secret ingredients to a good marriage.
Indubitably.
gigglesnort! Clever Rosaline!
A most duplicitous story! Loved it!

Hahaha! I'm sure. I think there is some truth to it too…you can't beat a good cheese 🧀
