The Musketeers 3.03: As the battle raged higher

[redscharlach]

Well, it's been a peculiar week for multiple reasons, but in the absence of anything I can do to improve the poor state of the world, I've decided to soldier on regardless and maintain a firm grasp on European literary tradition by grabbing hold of its most muscular and leather-clad protrusions

Thank you for finding the time to write this even though it was shown on an awkward night. :) It's just what I needed to cheer me up today!

[redscharlach]

No problem, glad I could amuse!

This is one of the finest extended metaphors I've ever read. You are a treasure.

Awww, thanks!

I fear you are as mad as a sackful of Musketeers, but so am I..,and I love your reviews, even if you cause me to choke on my toast.

Please put down all dry foodstuffs before reading: I'm very glad you're amused but I don't want to hospitalize anybody. :-D

Love your reviews! Keep them coming 😂

[redscharlach]

Thanks, I shall endeavour to do so!

Marvellous!

As always, your reviews are an absolute delight; thank you for making me laugh for the first time in about 72 hours!

As for:

Aramis: "Still got it, I see."
Treville: "Most of it."

That also made me giggle - perfect response :)

And in Gaston's defence: if I was dragged rudely out of bed before dawn, without even a coffee, I'd probably want to murder someone too...

You're very welcome! And I agree about the getting up early thing...
