Xover: Merry, Pippin, Rosencrantz, Guildenstern - fallen into the wrong story caffienekitty February 18 2009, 08:39:25 UTC
A/N: Half, anyway.

"For the last time, I'm not bloody 'Rosie', you are."

"What makes you so sure?"

The blond man sat in the smial with his knees up around his ears. "...I'm not. I don't feel like a 'Rosie'." He crossed his arms, knocking over a pot of tea.

"Ooo!" said the dark-haired man, grabbing at the fallen teapot and bonking his forehead on a support beam. "Augh!"

"This is ridiculous!" said the agitated blond man. "How do we ever even live here?"

The dark-haired man rubbed his forehead with a tea-soaked rag. "...amicably?"

"That's it." The blond man extricated himself from behind the tiny table. "I'm getting out."

"Where are you going?"

"Out!" He dodged the hanging candelabra. "Anywhere!"

"We can't go far; we're to go to a party. We were called."

"I know we were called. I was there when he called our names ( ... )

That was really funny. Particularly arguing about who's who, because from all we see of them in the original it doesn't matter--even characters within Hamlet get mixed up as to who's who!

Hee! That was very cute. And a bit confusing, but hey, they were confused too. :D

Thanks! Have you seen "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead"? There's a lot of 'theatre of the absurd' conventions and circular speaking in it.

I'm glad you liked it! It's a fantastic prompt! I love Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, have watched it more times than is probably healthy and even talked a fourth year college Shakepeare professor into letting me do a paper on it and what it said about 'Hamlet'

I've got something half-nibbling for the other side of the mix-up, Merry and Pippin in Hamlet's court. I'm doubtful it'll come to much of anything though. :-/

Hello! Remember that Gen Battle prompt of yours that I wrote one side of and said I was working on the other side? Guess what I just posted! It's more Hamlet than Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, but I hope you like it anyway. :-)

ETA: Oops, wrong link.

Aw, poor confuzzled Rosie and Gilden! But at least in your story they stand a better chance of avoiding a bloody and rhetorical death. ;>)

True! But I don't doubt that... whichever one was the dark-haired one... I don't doubt that he'd be looking into the Palantir as soon as he found it.
