Kolby had expected this. One did not lie to the king and get no reaction from it. "Of course, Sire, name the time and place." He spoke softly and not in his jovial tone. Kolby could be a complex man. While capable of sounding like an idiot and joking non-stop; he could also be formal when it was time for him to be. While he did not know the prince well, at lest not any more he liked to think they were still casual friends. More so then strangers at lest.
He did not often joke with the prince, but nor was he always this formal. Kolby was dressed in the normal knightly armor. His cape draped over his arm so it would not drag the floor, and his other arm rested on his sword casually. He knew they would not be talking here, which was why he offered to meet him at a time and place of the princes' choosing. One did not tell a prince when and where. The prince told you, and you pretended it was a good idea even if it wasn't.

Kolby gave a amused chuckle before reaching up to pull over the hood of the chainmail so he might put on his helmet. He paused to pull off his glove with his teeth--"One moment, I have to tuck in my hair!"--and truck in his hair before picking up his helmet. Kolby was not an idiot, even if his words might sound like he could be in this moment. He could see the prince was upset and trying to keep the mood light. He was hoping the ridicules comment would bring some sort of amusement to the prince so he would not get an angry beating.
Putting on his helmet, he drew his sword from it's sheath on his hip. "So, I am going to take it there was no kiss for your efforts!" He told the prince as he stood there waiting for the prince to make ready. "Well, Sire, I hope she was worth it." He joked, knowing that Arthur would think Morgana was. "Maybe she can kiss your wounds when we are done. I hear you do not do so well when fighting just one man." Kolby was amused that the prince would rescue a servant because a lady batted her eyes at him. Morgana wasn't THAT pretty, the prince must have feelings for her!

Kolby watched the prince and wondered where he had been. After a few seconds it was clear the Prince knew where he'd been but was not wanting to say. Naughty boy! There had to be a woman involved in this! Had someone not said something about the ward being away for the week as well? Oh ho! Kolby was no fool! He knew what was going on here . . . and how angry the king would be at anyone (even the prince) touching his ward.
While Kolby thought Morgana was beautiful, he was not stupid enough to form an attachment to her. He did not want the king for a father-in-law. Kolby moved to stand next to Arthur and gave the king a formal bow. "He was with me, Sire, at my family's estate. I arrived late from the visit with my father. The prince joined me for the return tip so that we might do a bit of hunting." Everyone knew Kolby was a bad shot; "I did not catch anything." He added on, playing off the king's knowledge of his lack of skill in that area.

Well, well, well! Look who'd made it back from being Morgana's little errand boy! Kolby smiled and walked slowly over, but was wise enough to stop a few feet from the prince. "Sire, you made it back! And all in one piece! It's amazing how you can take on over twenty meant and return unscathed but can't make it past one assassin!" Kolby teased good heartedly but also a bit mockingly. He could see the prince was angry. Kolby could have a temper too, and knew that when he was angry that someone mouthing off was not the best course of action. However, Kolby also did not often think before speaking.
He knew (everyone knew) that Morgana's party had been attacked and the maid was taken. Kolby had felt insulted and angry that someone would attack his brothers in arms! Hell, he might have joined the prince in going out there to strike back! Might. Still, the king's ward had a royal fit and off Arthur went to bring her maid back home. "I hope you at lest got a kiss for your efforts."

Bloody 'ell! Where had that boy been?! Kolby had not been in the back in the city long, for he had been visiting his family for the past fornight after his father's injury but the moment he had re-entered the city everyone (important) was talking about the missing prince. He changed and hurried up to the throne room so that he might assets in the search party for him. Around the same time, apparently the prince had come home.
Entering the room, from behind the prince Kolby stood back and watched the exchange. He moves up a few steps every now and then, trying to cover the fact that he was sneaking in. He was supposed to have been back a few days ago and reporting in for his shifts. He wondered where the young prince had been and why he'd told no one.
Kolby had meant to be back but when he was at home he did no work, and people just waited on him all day. Here is was up by dawn dressed in chainmail and was marching all day. He loved being a knight, but he would dare one person to claim they would not be late coming home from THAT!
