sorry to always talk about this little freak but galehauts continued escalation of being gay and possessive just makes this more nuts the further i go. like i’m well past this specific passage but.
Now Galehaut and his great retinue were on their way to court, and he and his companion often rode apart from the others. Lancelot was very glad that Galehaut was looking much better than before and so felt sure that what Galehaut had given him to understand was indeed true. But Meleagant could not take his eyes off Lancelot because of the great affection that Galehaut showed him; he was jarred by it and made envious, and it set his heart on edge.

the followup is going to be something approaching an actual analysis btw. look forward to it (or dont) (in several months)
Shame is an inevitable theme to turn to when discussing the Knight of the Cart, as it (or a lack of it) forms the central thematic pillar for Maleagant and Lancelot both. Lindheim-Marx posits that KotC is a critique of extremity in regards to honour and shame, with Lancelot and Maleagant at the undesirable extremes and Gawain as an idealised moderate. I don’t disagree with this reading, but I would suggest that KotC can be read as a criticism of the idea of being particularly concerned with honour and shame in general, and it is this reading that shapes my analysis. Maleagant is ultimately undone by his inability to accept shame, and Lancelot is able to succeed because his eccentricities mean the idea of shame scarcely matters to him at all. Gawain, the ideal moderate, is functionally excluded from the story altogether, because as a noble and upstanding man he will not voluntarily do anything shameful, and thus is ultimately unequipped to rescue Guinevere. If one continues into Perceval, Chretien spends a great deal of time needling Gawain with dishonour and shame in a way that to me reads as interested in exploring that perfection finally cracking and the inadequacies of that moderation - but this post is not about Gawain.

do you care about him
The king came hurrying down From the tower, to stop him. Straight To the field of battle he went, Speaking these words to his son: "What's this? You think it's fine To go on fighting, after He's stopped? You act like a savage! It's far too late for heroics: Everyone knows he's won, Everyone knows you've been beaten!" Out of his mind with shame, Méléagant denied Defeat: "Have you gone blind? There's something wrong with your eyes! Anyone who thinks I've been beaten Is surely as blind as a bat!" And since whatever the prince Wanted had been done, he rode Directly to King Arthur's court, And the moment he got there came Swaggering before the king, Drunk with pride and disorder, And began to state his case: And then Méléagant left King Arthur's court, and rode Until he reached the court Of King Bademagu, his father. And to show his father how very Fierce and brave he was, He carefully composed his face In ways wonderful to behold. "And are you dreaming—or delirious— Saying I'm a fool For telling you just what happened? I came to you as one comes To his lord, to his father, but you Apparently see things differently, Insulting me in the grossest Terms. That's villainous—vile! How can you possibly explain Taking such a tone with me?"

do you care about him
"I've listened to every word You said," was the answer, "and you spoke A lot of them. I've held my peace. And still, in the end, you've said Nothing. I'm no hermit, No saint all flowing with compassion; I've no interest in earning Honor by giving up My beloved. He won't get her As fast and easy as that! Nothing will happen the way You or he expect. Help him against me, if you like, But you and I needn't quarrel. Offer a truce, you And your men. What's that to me? It won't make me afraid! I'm just as pleased, by God, That I'll be his only concern. I won't ask you to help me Or do a thing that might make you Guilty of treachery or bad faith. Go ahead and be good, And I'll be as cruel as I like." "You talk like a frightened fool," Said Méléagant to his father. "By the faith I owe to Saint Peter, I'm not following your Advice! Pull me apart With horses before I listen To you! Let him find his honor And I'll find mine. Let him hunt For glory on his own road, and I'll Take mine. If he's hungry for a fight, I'm at least a hundred times hungrier!" "May nothing I do worry me Less than that!" said the son. "I only wish it could be Today: why wait for tomorrow? Just see how sad my face is, And the deep rings round my eyes! Do you think I'm worried? grieving? Troubled? immensely afraid? I won't be happy until I fight him; nothing will please me." The prince Was a well-built, noble-looking And handsome man, his hammered Mail shirt beautifully fitted, His helmet and the shield hung From his neck perfectly matching. But even those who supported His cause preferred the knight Of the cart, all agreeing That Méléagant was nothing In comparison.

someone replied with this thesis: digitalcollections.wesleyan.edu/_flysystem/f... and we share the same braincell!!! look at this!!! spins in circles!!!!
However, Lancelot's obsession with the queen is so intense that it frequently brings him more harm than good. In the same way, Meleagant's relentless quest for renown and recognition as the best knight in the world consumes and torments him, causing him to hatch Machiavellian schemes, and ultimately precipitating his tragic demise. Both characters also have rather unbalanced relationships with gender. Lancelot gravitates towards women, spending much time in their company and forming much deeper bonds with them than he does with men, while Meleagant's entire nature is shaped by his relationship with male characters, most obviously his father and Lancelot, and he takes little notice of/interacts very little with women, including Guinevere, for whom he rather unconvincingly professes his love.
