From the homework Viscount Sir Alvar de Cadiz assigned me.
Thorsteinn:
A knight from another land who had come to live in our kingdom found himself increasingly dismayed by the behavior of our chivalry. Finally, he offered his complaints to a gathering of the chivalry, and ended his comments by asking, "And after all, what do you want to be, an authentic medieval knight, or...or...Sir Lancelot?" The knights and masters-at-arms of the kingdom looked at one another, then back at the stranger knight, and one answered, "Sir Lancelot."

Sir Edward:
Good answer. :) Besides, by striving to be Sir Lancelot, in a way you would be following the footsteps of authentic historical knights, since they too were inspired by Arthurian tales.
Ian:
And don't forget he'll be obligated to enter in to an adulterous relationship with your king's wife then! ;D
Sir Edward:

Wait... how many of them responded "Sir Lancelot"? Oh boy, that could be a lot of separate affairs on the queen's part. I hope she has some stamina. :)
Sir William:
I'd rather be Sir Gawaine...good hearted, but flawed and slightly jealous. It is my belief that Gawaine blew the whistle because he wanted the Queen for himself, in his deepest thoughts. ;)
