James chuckled at himself. "I suppose it's not very artistic, just made for the purpose of fighting, no more." He quickly glanced to his scabbard and drew his blade slightly; he reflected briefly on how long it took for him to purchase the sword, but it was well worth the money, the stylized hilt making it seem almost noble in origin. "I'm always seeking to improve, though."
He thought for a moment, staring at the books on his table. "You've already helped me far past what you had to, Fiora; but may I ask for another favor? Would it be too much for you to teach me the art of dueling?"
I will meet one someday...and that day will either be the best or worst day of my life.

Fiora paused and clasped her hands together, pursing her lips.
'I 'ave not been asked such a thing before.' she confessed. The Duelist shot a look at James, scrutinizing him. 'Perhaps my brother and I could help you with the more general points of dueling. Alas, it is not an easy thing to learn. If you are sure, I will not mind inviting you to my maison. I am sure my brother,Adrien, will not mind teaching you as well.'
Her eyes rested upon his blade, carefully examining the stylized hilt. She gave a small nod of approval before raising her eyes to James's.

James nodded and gave a brief bow, almost forgetting he was a 'noble' for a moment. "To be taught by the most skilled fencers in Demacia? Even for a noble, there are few with such an honor bestowed on them. It would be my sincerest pleasure, Fiora, for you and your brother to teach me." He smiled a bit, although on the inside he was freaking out. This was certainly pushing it. "Is there any time in specifics that would be suitable for me to come to your maison?"

Fiora stood up, pushing her chair back. She glanced at the books on the table and sniffed, unimpressed. The library was, in her opinion, a waste of time. The Grand Duelist crossed her arms as she listened to James and answered curtly.
'It will take more than a few lessons to teach one zee art of fencing. Expect only zee raw basics. Adrien prefers early morning, after breakfast. He fences with his friends and students then. Come just before noon and we shall see. He should be finished by then. Show yourself any day at that time when you feel ready.Au revoir.'' she concluded, picking up her cape and clasping it securely.
Without waiting for a response, Fiora strode towards the exit. Before turning the corner, however, the Grand Duelist spun around, eyes scanning James.
'Do not bring your friends.' she sniffed. 'I will not 'ave a line of mewing infants asking to be taught.' Content she made her point clear, Fiora swept around the corner, the tails of her cape fluttering behind in rapid pursuit, leaving James alone in the restricted section.

James nodded succinctly when Fiora gave her instructions. "Of course, mad--I mean, Fiora. I'll be there, on my honor." As he watched her walk away in a huff, he flopped down and caught his breath. She was gone. Of course, now that meant he had plenty of time to realize just what he'd done. His smile blanked away and he cursed himself quietly, staring at the books he had on the table.
He took a moment to compose himself and grabbed the books, hurrying out of the library quickly. With a quick motion he tucked them into his satchel and headed home. In times like this, he may need someone's help to keep himself from getting killed...but who? Looked like he didn't have much choice. Shyvana would be his best bet. But not yet - there was still one more chance for him to salvage himself.
