Title: Excuses Rating: PG Word Count: 235 Pairing: Alanna/Jonathan Round/Fight: 3A Summary: Writing excuses is hard.
Sir,
I fell down.
My horse did it.
I blame it on Gary, because if he hadn’t---
There was this one time when …
I simply had to examine the floors at close range, and managed to obtain bruises while doing so.
---It all started when we were working on our arithmetic questions
Jon peered over Alanna’s shoulder as she wrote, and started shaking his head.
“Uncle won’t buy any of those—“
“That’s why they’re crossed off!” Alanna crumpled the paper and threw it across the desk, where it bounced off the wall and fell to the floor. “If you’re so smart, you write us an excuse for being in the Lower City and getting in a tavern brawl.
Jon winced as Alanna’s chair bumped into his side when she pushed away from the desk. “Ouch, watch it! I’ve got bruises.”
“If we don’t figure something out, we’ll have punishment work too,” Alanna retorted, and dug in her books for another sheet of parchment.
Jon rolled his eyes. “Next time, we don’t go visit George that late.”
Sticking her tongue out at him, Alanna picked up her quill again and made a face at Jon. “Next time, I don’t follow you into the thick of things and get my own head bashed in. Now come over here and help me.”

*cackles* Examine the floors at close range! Oh, Alanna. Go with the tried and tested "I fell down", it's simpler.
