Ma'am, it's an honour to make your acquaintance.

Holmes was unusually formal and shy, I had never seen him like that, except once when we met the young Duchess of Arcadia in the Curious Case of The Lost Password.

The pleasure is mine, Sir, I have heard so much about you and your work. Our visitor blushed as she said this.

I will need your help, Sir. We are a small fellowship fighting a formidable enemy, The Great Algo. He has powerful allies, including the Gang of the Starmarians. I believe you know them. My knights tell me that you fight the Starmarians yourself.

How interesting, Ma'am. How very interesting. Please sit down. My associate Watson will ask Mrs Hudson to bring us some tea, won't you, Watson.

As the feast in the Great Hall came to a close, our Lady Joan Mastodon stood up and recited Tennyson:

She left the web, she left the loom //
She made three paces thro' the room //
She saw the water-flower bloom, //
She saw the helmet and the plume, //
She look'd down to Camelot. //
Out flew the web and floated wide; //
The mirror crack'd from side to side; //
'The curse is come upon me,' cried //
       The Lady of Shalott. //

Damn all towers, our Lady exclaimed, to the approving murmur of the assembled knights. The curse is on the tower, not on Elaine. Toot and you shall live.

There was buzz in the Great Hall. Sir Juniper started reciting the whole poem, but he was ignored. The knights rose, "Toot and you shall live", they cheered again and again. Our Lady Joan smiled.

Sir Wahnfried was the odd member of our Lady Joan's fellowship. He kept to himself and never joined the gatherings in the Great Hall. Every day he posted news on his meals, which were simple and varied little.

"G'Morning, Fedifellows, breakfast time. Porridge today.", he posted every morning.

Occasionally he also posted in the evening. "Dinner time, my Fedifriends, mutton stew today. May you all stay healthy."

The knights ignored him mostly, though there were those who faithfully boosted each of his toots. When he mentioned a special dish, there was some friendly banter in the replies. His toot about his Apple Crumble went viral, surpassing even Sir Galahad's Ode to the Hashtag.

The Young Turks liked to make fun of him. "Do a Wahnfried" became a popular putdown for a while.

One evening when his name came up, our Lady Joan spoke. "Toot as Wahnfried toots, my friends, and we will all be alright." The knights asked her to explain, but she would not expand.
