[England has a lot of business to handle - this slew of messages all has him sitting up in his fancy new room~]

[PRIVATE TO NORWAY]

[a minute to mumble to himself, as if thinking everything over first...] Miss Buckley has just delivered your message. I'd like to speak to you as soon as possible. Please arrange whatever you can...

...oui America 'as been around....but it's a while since I've 'eard from him.

[officerofspade]

Well! Most useful and to-the-point thing I've heard from anyone else all day! If Theta hadn't delivered Norway's message, I would've been sitting here in the dark all damn day - maybe all week!

[fleurdeamour]

You would 'ave run into 'im eventually, I am sure. Zough, wis how little 'as been seen of him, 'e may 'ave disappeared back to his world - it is rare, but not unheard of for people to do so.

[officerofspade]

I've been told he's here, and Norway's asking for him as well! It's not simply MY concern, it's a matter that the more I know, the more something might be able to be done about the situation!

[And that look that can be interpreted as hurt, depending on how well you know him. Confusion as well. People being sent back? Why only certain ones? Why not him?]

[fleurdeamour]

Hmph. And what do you zink we 'ave all been trying to do? Zere are beings stronger zan us here, and zey 'aven't been able to lay a finger on ze Watcher and ze Interloper. What makes you zink you knowing America is here or not would make a difference about zat?

[officerofspade]

[He huffs.] I could've spoken to him! I could've had - had SEVERELY more decent help than I've had talking to most people here! Matthew's at least made some decent effort, and you gave some worthwhile information! And while the rest have you been off dallying to your own business, I've been securing myself a good enough ally and friend, as well as decent rooming! And TRYING to make sure I can do SOMETHING other than twiddle my thumbs and whine about the bleeding situation, and it's terrible consequences on my hair!

[fleurdeamour]

Well excuse me for 'aving some pride in ze way I look! Ze rest of us 'ave already been making friends and allies and settling in - but I bet it took a lot of effort on your part for zat, so maybe I shouldn't be chiding you zere. And 'ow is talking America going to be any help here - he can't even keep his own people out of hot water.

[officerofspade]

The idiot at least usually has a plan, whether it works or not! And mayhaps I could... correct him, bring him to a more reasonable conclusion!

And I doubt any 'company' you've made has been of decent conversation! I'm sure they 'entertain' you just fine! DAMMIT, I should've known better than to go to you for anything! I might as well have asked SCOTLAND!

[fleurdeamour]

I 'ave made quite a few friends 'ere for just conversation, zank you very much. I 'ave a roommate zat I 'ave not so much as touched inappropriately, for example.

Ha, America's plans. Right, 'you zree are my support, and I'm ze hero'. Oh, no, and zen zere was 'let's build a giant superhero for global warming'. Because both of zose sound brilliant.

[......]

Hmph! Perhaps you're right! I suppose I'm better off here, alone, with company that actually TREATS me with welcoming, and RESPONDS to my ideas with a certain recognition! Who appreciates an Englishman's planning, and the complete lack of help that anyone else can provide! At least I can then count on a proper gentleman's conversation, instead of screaming at a frog over this GODFORSAKEN, USELESS, OVERLY COMPLICATED CONTRAPTION!

AND TO HELL WITH THIS! All I wanted was some GODDAMN INFORMATION, just trying to make a DECENT SPOT for myself here, and instead I get a bunch of IDIOTS!

[fleurdeamour]

I gave you information. And zen you yelled at me and we began arguing. As per usual, Rosbif, you completely miss ze point and act like nozing is your fault. Whatever. 'ave fun searching for your American, I've got a painting to plan.

[officerofspade]

[He's cursing. Nonstop. Simply for the sake of not wanting to let the other have the last word. One would not believe there is anything of semblance to respond to here...]
