Alfred couldn't help but laugh at that. It had never occurred to him that Zelda wouldn't have known how to swim (or rather, it had, but not for a while — he'd sort of stopped thinking about her as a typical English girl somewhere along the line, and considerations such as would she even enjoy traveling and does she swim had fallen by the wayside at around the same time). "You can learn right alongside Charity," he teased. "And Roslyn's children, too. We'll make a party of it." His tone aside, he was a little pleased by the idea of teaching her how to swim. It was playful and fun, but a little intimate too, in an unconventional way. He was delighted by the notion that he would get to be the one who taught her.
MJ made the most Alfredy of sets and then two years later she made it EVEN BETTER
