A Week in Rural Scotland

[rainne]

Thank you for joining us here in picturesque Glen Macalie, on the shore of Loch Leven in the Grampian Mountains of Scotland. We welcome you to the campus of the Glen Macalie School for Girls and hope that you will enjoy your stay.


This week will largely be unstructured; you are welcome to investigate the castle (which dates back to 1237 CE) and the nearby village of Glen Macalie. Some resources which will be available to you include:

In the castle:
Comprehensive Library
Modern Kitchens
State of the art Training/Exercise Room
Extensively landscaped grounds and gardens
Horseback Riding
Fishing
Hiking

In the village:
Shopping
Pubs and restaurants
Museum
Historical buildings
Golf

We ask only that you take care to observe the following rules:

1) Please do not leave campus near or after dark.
2) Venturing too far outside after dark, even on campus, is not guaranteed to be safe. You do so at your own risk.
3) There will be occasional evening events. Participation in these events should be considered of minor risk; however, anyone taking part should endeavor to follow all directions to ensure his or her safety.

If you have any questions, please feel free to see Mr. Giles or Ms. Summers.

Naked sword fighting and especially me claiming my princess as my prize.

*squeezes her hand*

I don't think you're weak, but I'd like to teach you some fighting techniques. It would be a good use of all this knowledge...

*a shiver runs through him and he hums happily*

Only if I win your hand, my dear.

*smiles and shrugs one shoulder slightly*

If I can help you, that would be good. Then maybe you could stand a chance at naked sword fighting.

I think I could be convinced to throw the fight so you could claim me...

Mm, no, we can't do that. Now where is the kitchen...

-Peeta

[http://users.livejournal.com/_eyesofpride_/]

For me to claim you? Or for you to claim me? Either way, I like the sound of this.

*looks around, up and down the hall*

Yeah, I was looking for the library earlier, but I never found it. I think we should keep going down this hall. Maybe it'll take us there.

-Peeta

Ahh...so the princess wants to be mine.

*quickly sweeps her off her feet, holding her as he spins her once*

If I wasn't so hungry, I would claim victory right now and take you up to our room.

-Peeta

Mmm...good idea. Something nice and quick. And we can always get more.

*kisses her cheek*

*walks down the hall for a bit, then puts her down again*

It feels weird to be walking in a school holding you...but I can hold you for much longer upstairs.

*walks closely next to her, looking around as they walk*

*they end up at the stairs and he turns to her, smiling*

Stairs! Where was it now? To the left?

-Peeta

[http://users.livejournal.com/_eyesofpride_/]

Great. I wonder what kind of food they have in there...

*walks down the corridor, looking at her and rubbing her arm*

Hey...you seem a lot less excited about this now. Are you...not hungry anymore?

-Peeta

[http://users.livejournal.com/_eyesofpride_/]

Ahhh...

*looks around the corridor, looking behind them*

Well if we see them, we can hide. Or I can pretend to be sick? Or we can run.

-Peeta

*smiles at her, nudging her a little*

Such a brave princess. You're going to be the one saving me.

*sighs happily as he looks around the large, state-of-the-art kitchen*

Oh, this is wonderful. I don't- I don't know where to start looking.

-Peeta

[http://users.livejournal.com/_eyesofpride_/]

*groans low in his chest, resting his hands on either side of her, leaning in close*

Anything you like, m'lady. A lowly knight such as myself surely is not worthy of a beautiful princess such as yourself. I would do anything to gain that honor.

-Peeta

[http://users.livejournal.com/_eyesofpride_/]

*moans, moving his head to press a firm kiss to her lips*

It would be my honor. I only hope I can live up to your expectation.

*smiles as he kisses her quickly again, before turning to go to the large refrigerator*

*gapes at all the food in there, turning back to her, smiling happily*

Look at all food! Fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, even a whole chicken. Lets see if I can find some ham and cheese.
