"Bard II does things on his own time, when he deems fit." Thomas answer, rather in a huff. In the short period of service to Bard II, Thomas had learned the man was still learning to keep on time with things, and seemed to always move at his own pace. Quite the difference between Aripert, who moved at a lightning pace, and Arduin who moved at such a weird pace that no one could follow. Thomas simply chalked it up to Bard II still trying to learn how to be a king, "The king is always in safe hands, however. Wherever he goes, two Order of the Thistle knights follow him. We have to run the tightest security here for Bard II." Thomas said, referring to how precious Bard's life was to the realm. Suddenly, as if a surge of energy had taken Thomas, he preformed a rather fast underarm turn on Lexine, nearly perfectly, before resuming their normal dancing pattern. "For a person who has been a bodyguard for a while, it seems, you pick up on courtly dancing fairly fast." Thomas said, with a small smirk, "Maybe you belong in court along with the politicians more than with bodyguards." Thomas added, his tone growing slightly serious.
