Video 1

[the video opens with a sixteen year old girl who is doing her best to appear self-assured and confident. she's in armor and she's sitting ramrod straight in a plain, wooden chair. she takes a deep breath and speaks]

Hello. My name is Lady Mariane Cousland and I'm looking for sparring partners. I use a sword and dagger, but I'm willing to fight with any kind of swordsman. Or swordswoman.

I'm also willing to teach others to fight, so please let me know if you'd be interested in that.

[she looks away from the camera briefly, as though debating with herself whether or not to say anything more]

Any responses would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

[It seems fair. Mariane is giving her time.]

Where were you going to do this?

[she will be momentarily flustered because over the past year, she's become unaccustomed to nice things (other than Alistair)]

I was thinking about what remains of the park. Would that be acceptable?

[Jo laughs at that question.]

The teacher gets to decide. The park should be fine.

[she wasn't expecting such easy aquiesciences]

Very well. What time?

Afternoon works for me. Two?

Two is fine. May I ask your name?

[Jo really has to get better about introducing herself earlier in conversations...]

I'm Jo. Nice to meet you.

[it's fine, she simply figured that barely anyone knows her here and felt she had to introduce herself first]

Thank you, Jo. I look forward to meeting you in person soon.

Thanks. See ya.

[And there she ends it.]
