[ If getting up this morning, you thought that you might have a great day blessed with the many smiling faces of the residents of Fortuna, you were sorely, sorely mistaken. In fact, as a scowling man appears on the screen, it might occur to you to shut off your communicator before you get a wall of negativity dropped on you. ]

[ If you are one of

[hullonurse]

There you are. You could leave a note when you go off like that, you know.

... But a play? Really? [S-she doesn't sound very tempted at all!!]

[noblemen]

Yes, a note. I shall be sure to do so before I leave next time. [ that is not sarcasm clearly you are just interpreting what he's saying incorrectly ]

Yes, really. The play I left at your flat; it's still there, isn't it? If not, I did just get another one so. . .

[hullonurse]

[She chooses to pretend he's saying that seriously because if he isn't she needs to go hit him and that's so much effort.]

No, it's still here. Were you thinking of a full production or something more simple?

[noblemen]

As lavish as our current environment allows. The utmost level of effort and concentration must be placed into the production of a Shakespearean play, so likely a full production, my dear.

[hullonurse]

Well, of course, but desperate times and all that.

... Any thoughts on casting so far? [So subtle!]

[noblemen]

Ah yes, desperate times. . . [ WELL NOW THAT YOU MENTION IT. . . ]

Eerr, yes actually. Just uem, just one person thus far. I think I might have either a Nick Bottom or a Oberon. Would you be interested in participating, Miss Rosemary?

[hullonurse]

Well, only if you're particularly looking, I'm not fussed either way. Just thought I might offer.

[noblemen]

Well I don't have any of the other roles filled yet, so I'm not adverse to the offer. Who would you like to be?

[hullonurse]

The fairy queen might be suitable.

[noblemen]

Then Titania it is for you, my dear. No one else would be better suited for the role, if I can be so bold as to offer my opinion.

[ This is actually narcissism, believe it or not, and not chivalry. But sshhh, take the compliment Rosemary. ]

[hullonurse]

[Don't worry, she's a narcissist too. Hence why the only role she can deem worthy of her is the fairy queen.]

Well, of course. I think I would do well enough, thank you, dear.

[noblemen]

But of course. I shall guarantee you a beautiful costume as well for the play.

[ this is where he doesn't tell her that France might be her husband or her love in the play, right ]

[hullonurse]

[No, because at this point she actually trusts him to not be a sadistic bastard to another England.]

Don't go to too much trouble, dear. [But looks pleased!]

[noblemen]

[ It wasn't on purpose or anything! He just really wants to see France with the head of an ass... ]

I never intend to.

[hullonurse]

[That would be nice...]

Hmm. Let me know if you need help with anything else, as well.

[noblemen]

Well I wouldn't be opposed to some more help with the actual production and recruitment for the play, if you were so inclined.
