Will the Real Black Prince Please Stand Up?
No.
Yes!
For those that don't know, the "fake" Black Prince in the first photo is Edward, son of the English King Edward III, who was known as "the Black Prince" because he allegedly wore black armor. The real Black Prince in the second photo not only allegedly wears black armor, he keeps it meticulously groomed - bearing in mind that a knight is tidy and shiny at ALL times.
Man Ray has recently been knighted as MomKatt's "Black Prince" and his knightly qualities include chivalry to all ladies (whether furry or not), a willingness to run about the house challenging infidel kitties to trial by combat using the famous "Pole Axe Smacky Paw" method of defense, and loyally and devotedly serving his Lady MomKatt by following her wherever she goes, looking anxiously at her from the kitchen counter and regularly rubbing against and winding around her ankles in the bedroom to let her know he loves her and that he is there to defend her, if need be.
In truth, Ray is the very definition of chivalric!
