Title: In a Manner of Speaking Rating: G Word Count: 100 Pairing: Maura/Kel Fight: 1C Summary: Maura likes puns.
“I forget exactly how beautiful Dunlath is until I get here,” Kel said breathily, dismounting from her ornery horse.
Maura tried to accept it as a compliment rather than an insult. “A woman’s home is her castle,” she said, “in a manor of speaking.”
“Dunlath has a castle,” Kel said blandly. Maura couldn’t tell if it was dry sarcasm or a lack of recognition of the play on words. Given that the knight didn’t crack even the slightest smile, she assumed it was the latter.
She sighed, trying not to be disappointed. “Let me show you to your guest quarters.”

I can't express how much I love this one, the fact that Maura's disappointed that Kel doesn't pick up on the pun (I would be too, Maura!), and I will have the song in my head for the rest of the afternoon <3
