006; In Which Sophie Apologizes

[eldest_hatter]

I would like to apologize on behalf of Arthur, or England. However you may know him. If he bothered anyone during his drunken walk last night I am terribly sorry and will do my best to make sure he doesn't repeat this embarrassing incident.

[A mutter, under her breath.]

Honestly, he's almost as bad as Howl.

So I see...

All I will say is good luck.

[eldest_hatter]

Yes, thank you.

Are you an acquaintance of Arthur?

[hateslonglines]

You're welcome. Be thankful it didn't escalate to the point of stealing signs and womanizing.

Ja. I'm Austria...or Roderich whichever you prefer.

[eldest_hatter]

He certainly is like my husband then. [Sighs]

A pleasure, Roderich. I am Sophie Jenkins. Are you...another country like Arthur?

[hateslonglines]

Even though I do not know your true husband, I doubt he gets drunk and steals the same sign for over 100 years.

The same here. And ja.

[eldest_hatter]

Signs, no. But he certainly gets drunk, and he's an expert in womanizing.

How very odd...

[hateslonglines]

England is as well, however, those are but the more mundane things he's pulled.

There's actually quite a few of us here.

[eldest_hatter]

I see. Well I hope to prevent such things in the future.

I am beginning to see that.
