5th Royal Decree

[solarhussyalert]

Action 747 Partridge Drive

[Lym headed out in the morning, not wanting anything to do with school, and looking at a box with her name on it. Poking it.]

Ok, I got the sun rune, what horrible thing is in you today?

Action Downtown - Bakery

[School is for chumps, chumps who aren't dressed like the Queen of Felenas. Chumps who aren't going to get cookies. She doesn't quite understand the money thing but she's headed for the bakery for something to eat. Eventually she'll get there and peer around.]

Hey! Is this the place where the chef makes cookies?

Phone

[Ok, she's holding it upside down so she's kind of hard to hear]

Hey! Does anyone know anything to do here other than that school thing? Its been kind of really boring here.

Buy? Huh? Can I charge it to the Felenas national treasury?

[vytis]

That wouldn't be something that exists in Mayfield...

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

No, but the only things I have in Mayfield are a terrible rune that destroys cities if the people in it don't worship it and my clothes.

[She sighs]

[vytis]

I--ehh?

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

If I offer to balance your monthly budget, can I get a cookie?

[vytis]

[Well, Lithuania is confused.]

I-I'm sure the bakery can spare a cookie. Which one would you like?

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Uh, I don't know. I like the ones with cinnamon on them, but back home the chefs made those choices.

[She boggles, looking very confused]

[vytis]

I don't know you, so I can't really know what you like...

[He is getting a "sheltered royalty" feel from her.]

The cinnamon cookies are right here, though.

[Offering her one!]

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Oh! I'm sorry. That was rude of me.

[She bows]

Queen Lymsleia Felenas of the Queendom of Felenas. Thank you for the cookie kind Mr. Baker sir.

[She takes it and smiles]

[vytis]

[A sheltered queen, apparently. But she does look young. Well, no reason not to be polite, even if he'll probably never see her world.]

You're welcome, Your Majesty. I'm Lithuania.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

[She munches on the cookie smiling]

You're an excellent baker Mr. Lithuania!

[vytis]

Thank you. I've had a lot of practice. Have you been here long?

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Um, almost two months? Which really has been too long, I'm worried about home.

[vytis]

I know what you mean...

[He hates being away from his people for so long.]

If it helps, everyone who has ended up going home for a little while says they end up right where they left, so no one notices.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

That's something, because I get the feeling that if I leave the parliament in charge without any supervision they'll end up just as bad as the senate.

[vytis]

Hopefully you'll be back right when you came from, so they won't even notice you were gone.

[He's sympathetic; even if he doesn't know the details, he can relate to political issues.]

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I just hope there isn't another civil war. Both me and the sun rune are here.

[vytis]

It's best to hope for the best while you're here.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

I'm not really good at doing that.

[vytis]

[Offering her another cookie.]

I think it's best to worry about the problems you can deal with first.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

[She takes the cookie pondering]

I just have a lot of people who need something good to happen to them after the succession wars. Sorry, it may sound silly, everyone else here seems to be more knights and wizards so political things are kind of useless.

[vytis]

[Lithuania smiles.]

Politics can be just as important. Especially after a war, better for everyone if another one doesn't start up.

It would be bad if I really did disappear from my world for ten months... So I have to believe I'll go back to exactly when I disappeared from.

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

Oh! Are you a king or a senator or something? I'm sorry, it was rude of me to assume you were a tradesman. But your cookies are really good!

[vytis]

It's a bit odd when I explain it, but in my world, every nation has a personification, and I'm one of them. I've been alive ever since my people first had a unique culture from everyone around them.

Baking is a bit of a stress reliever for me...

[solarhussyalert.livejournal.com]

So like the spirit of the nation or something?
