philippe[ Good day, residents of Discedo, Spero and Dissimulo! Today you are going to be grace with the image of a rather attractive regal figure wandering down Main street in Dissimulo with some degree of confusion. There's probably between five hundred thousand and a few million euros worth in jewels on him, not to mention the finest silks, a gorgeous hat and a bright feather adorning the side of his hat, not to mention the most ridiculous tights stretched over his legs. ]
[ Ah, yes. It's good to be the king. ]
[ But, maybe not so much in Philippe's opinion. ]
Hello? Is there anyone here? [ Spoken in fluent, albeit it 17th century accented French, it's clear the poor boy is terrified. Not a very kingly way to act indeed. The wandering figure pauses in step, glancing from side to side, then furrows his brows. ]
If there is indeed someone in this village, I would like very much to speak with him. This is the King of France, King Louis of France, and I-- [ Faltering. ] --I...
It... would be appreciated if anyone would be so kind as to speak to me now. [ With a nod, though an unsure one. ] As you should at a king's request. [ Glancing down, mumbling. ] But if you don't wish to, that is fine as well...
[ And with that, the feed cuts out. The poor boy didn't even know it was on, though. ]

[ Maybe if he says strange words at different inflections this strange man while comprehend him. This plan is fucking foolproof. ]

Date: 2011-11-15 12:34 am (UTC)Ah... [ Glancing down, then swallowing before glancing back up at him with a slight smile. ] I am the King of France. --[ Another pause, as he's not sure how to ask for the man's name, but he just says: ] --and you?

I'm America! Duh! How can you forget the face of the most fantastic country you ever met and then viciously scorned because you can't get over the fact I'm more handsome than France?

Short answer, you're in Dissimulo. Long answer, you're on another world. [ he nods as though any of this makes sense in any language. ]

Je regret, mais quoi? [ Staring, horrified at America. ] I... can not understand... you.
