Case #34: Video

[19centconstable]

[Queen Victoria sits primly in George's room.

No, she doesn't look amused.

But wait: how does Queen Victoria know how to operate a video communicator?

...

Bitch, please.]

And what is the purpose of our being here today?

[Squeak!]

[Quick deep curtsy even if she is dressed like an Eastender pub girl.]

I-I-'aven't sorted that out myself yet, Your Majesty, though I've got the pub in order!

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

[Your curtsy gets a queenly nod.]

We do applaud your industriousness.

[She perks up]

They've got many exotic things here, Your Majesty. Six kinds of coffee, ten kinds of beer, all sorts of teas. I won't ask you down the public house if you find it inappropriate, but I could bring some refreshment to your door...

[Very basic knowledge of the concept of monarchy + almost no knowledge of history= angry Jane.]

That's George's room?

Why are you in George's room?

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

That is precisely what we are trying to ascertain, young lady.

[thebestnose.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't know the purpose! And I don't know anyone who does!

Unless it's this tauping flood!

[expectremorse.livejournal.com]

You are not the only one who wishes to know these things.

[So sayeth the spartan in his...spartan armor.]

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

[How very nude of you to say, sir.]

We see. So we may assume this is not to be another attempt on our life? They do become so tiresome.

[expectremorse.livejournal.com]

Attempt on your life? [You're old, you're heavyset, and you are richly dressed. Therefore you are a person of importance.] It is magic beset upon us by the gods.

What is the purpose of being anywhere?

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

[Queenly side-eye.]

Quite.

[Have a respectable smile from a respectable gentleman.]

Having trouble, ma'am?

no one eks

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

[How respectable of you.]

I am afraid we have yet to receive an answer to our query.

[sixthanimorph.livejournal.com]

[Have an unimpressed soldier half your age and probably a fourth of your education.]

You in charge here, lady?

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

We do not suspect so, young man.

[But she's willing to take on this territory as part of her empire if you'd like.]

[sixthanimorph.livejournal.com]

You got kidnapped too, huh? Welcome to the club.

[Okay, so she's dressed kinda funny, at least she's taking it like a trooper. Most ladies wouldn't be so calm about their situation.]

[raisedinabox]

I'm afraid we don't know at this point, Ma'am.

[Awkward pause, because you look a little bit like his grandma, and this worries him.]

Is there anything you need? Anything I could get to make you more comfortable while we figure this out?

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

We have been told of a public house. We would require an escort to such a place.

Spam? Log? Assume? ADVENTURE.

[raisedinabox]

I'd be happy to escort you, Ma'am! Let me know where you are, and I'll come and meet you whenever you're ready to go!

dragonqueen vs ladyqueen :C

[strangehistorian]

It appears to simply be a mistake.

It's a Queen off!

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

Does it? How inconvenient.

[una_persson]

I am told this place be a prison, though it is the fairest and strangest prison I have yet seen.

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

If that is so, we are in agreement.

[cartergetsyou]

[BUH WHAT.]

Your Majesty. It's an honour.

[19centconstable.livejournal.com]

[Of course it is.]

Inspector. We are pleasantly surprised.
