A Knight's Tale: Please please please (let me get what i want) by izzybeth
Please please please (let me get what i want) (Chaucer/Wat | PG13 | 4,728 words): Five times Chaucer tries to court Wat, plus one. This is delightful. All the gestures Chaucer makes are so perfect for him and for Wat.
Excerpt:
"Unbe-fucking-lievable." Wat slapped the parchment against the window frame and jammed the pin back into it. "King's pet."
"Hey, now."
"You are! 'Ooh, I'm Geoffrey Chaucer, I'm entrusted with the English wool trade and the monarchy just adores me!'" Wat affected an accent and pitch in what Geoff was forced to admit was a rather good, if slightly hurtful, imitation.
"Stop that." Geoff produced a heavy jug from under the bed and hefted it in Wat's direction. "It was a complimentary piece of verse for St. George's Day, if you must know. Do you want the nice wine or not?"
Wat's eyes grew enormous. "Wine from the king's own household—"
"Well, I wouldn't rate it that highly—"
