A Fanciful Sea Battle

She didst slip coming down in the hold and took a nasty fall *Nicholas explains gravely*

She has broken bones I am sure and she canst not walk. I sent a guard to the palace for assisstance but none hath returned.


*he looks to Elizabeth with a glance he hope doth remind her the severity of the situation, Marie is with child*

*Cough*

*Looks at Elizabeth and Juan with a beautiful smile plastered on my face*. Oh, hello. It was naught but a little slip! So ... how is the weather?

*Nicholas frowns*

She hath been drinking rum for the pain ... I think tis working

Ah, my best rum. Well, it seems to be serving my cousin well and will take the edge off if her ankle needs re-setting.

*Elizabeth climbs a little way up the ladder and bellows out for the attention of the ship's physician. As the man scrambles forward and is directed to Marie. Elizabeth doth give orders that Walsingham be fetched down from his post and sent to attend to the safety of her brother Edward.*

Madame, I would rest easier if you, Edward, and I were not all together.

I admit my lord that I am would have everyone I care for in my sights so I may have them all protected by my best men and my own sword if need be... but perhaps thou art right.

What would thee suggest?

...I also do not like the idea of us all cowering down here in the hold when there are strong fortified fireproof castles to walk freely within and would return to the safety of land.

I am actually thinking of taking up place in my apartments within the Tower.

Okay, I have many strong palaces within short ride from each other. I would have thee all choose thine place of safety.

Close enough together that we canst stay within contact but far enough apart that if one place ist breeched the others are still safe.

I wish for the Tower, know that Marie ist full against it anyway... and would be close to mine vast collection of dresses which do reside there.

I wilst stay by my wife's side where ever she wuldst go, but I wuldst not move her further than is nessesary

Edward wilt no doubt wish for his sumptuous apartments at Nonsuch.

...Marie, ist thine son safe and well?

Marie, you may have Hampton Court if it please thee. Tis modern, well furnished and easy to get you to via the Thames.

Tis a little further out of London than Whitehall and The Tower but that will mean further safety for the second in line to the throne.

*A Raven lands on the deck and hops to Elizabeth. A letter is tied to it's leg*

My Dearest Half Sister,
I have just one-well-two-well-three-well-four things to ask,
1)Is the guard meant to be poking me gently with a spear? If not could you please remove him... on second thought, could you remove him from my room, I don't need him watching me, I can't sleep while they do.
2) I have no intention's of harming OUR brother Edward, after all, he is merely a boy, I am older than he now, he is no threat
3) How are you... and what is Walsingham doing in the crow's nest...?
4) Where is Marie... I need someone that wants to get your throne to talk to... My mind is beginning to destroy plans inside my own head... see, that doesn't make sense as I cannot think straight

Signed
Your Humblest, scared and annoyed, Half Brother
Lord James Of York

P.S. IS IT MEANT TO BE COLD IN HERE?!?!?!?!?!
P.P.S LET ME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have no fear for her Elizabeth, I shall protect her with mine life, nothing shall befall her whilst I am around .... (well except letting her crash down a ladder lol)

Marie if thou doth wish it I can travel by night and bring Prince James to thee in Hampton Court ?

(OOC: Lord James how did you get my raven lol)

(OOC: It was passed down from my father. Mine is black, with a yellow beak and a slightly crippled foot)

Sir Nicholas,

I do humbly request that if you do come to collect me that you bring me a large, deep fried, quail... if not I MAY BECOME MADDER THAN I ALREADY AM!!!

My Lord James if I were coming to get YOU , thou wuldst not need a meal .... thou wuldst be a meal!


I was refering to Prince James of Scotland of course.

Really...?

*Smiles* I'd forgotten about my half 2nd cousin

*Smiles wistfully* Thou would liketh to meet him, after all, if he is to be king of this country soon, I wouldst liketh to get to knoweth him

*Smiles again, slightly more maniacally* Trust me, I have no ill intentions towards your step son

Lord James of York

I doth not trust thee .... but thou can trust this ... I wilst not allow thee to cause harm


Tis only by Elizabeth's mercy I hath not put an end to thee already

Sir Nicholas... Your stepson, Prince James is to succeed the throne, it is written in Elizabeth's will, even thou cannot changeth that... and thou has no intentions of changing that

JUST GET ME OUT OF HERE BEFORE I HOLD A MIRROR UP TO YOU AND RELFECT SUNLIGHT AT YOU MAKING YOU BURN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thou makes no sense my Lord *laughs* I shuld be happy to see my son succeed to the throne

and as for thine release tis a matter left in Elizabeths hands.

But I think thou wilst find thineself to be safer where thou is *smiles baring his fangs*

I find myself safer here, but I am suffocating!

Only Elizabeth has the keys to the windows in this place

Damneth hell it is hot!!

GET ME OUT!!!!! NOW!!!!!!!!

My lady, you are wise indeed. The Tower is an excellent decision, as I understand it is well fortified. May I accompany you? I feel it is my duty to see you are safe.

My shun? He's nice, He's such a nice nice boy. So good ot his mother. *Gently sips the rum*. Oh ... *looks around smiling dopily* Where are we going?
