Re: Harold's security case.

One of the often repeated submissions in the Home Office court papers is that Harold refuses to accept the answer they give him despite explanations/ evidence/ precedent etc because it is not the answer that Harold wants. 

For similar reasons, it is rumoured and occasionally revealed that he doesn't always get security because whatever package RAVEC put together for his visits doesn't meet his DEFCON1 preferred requirements and turns them down while whining to the courts that RAVEC is either leaving him vulnerable by not providing any security at all nevermind that he turned that which was offered or in the case of SJP / recent visit for Invictus service, doesn't completely exclude the public so that God forbid he comes into contact with them nevermind that SJP has DEFCON1 security. 

This is going to run and run until a judge finally says no or Harold runs out of money or he is labelled a vexatious litigant or all 3 options. 

Secondly, your point about Harold suing Charles is based on a misunderstanding. The Monarch is above the law. The only person in the UK and it's realms that can't be sued or arrested. It's part of the privilege of the royal perogative which essentially means that the Monarch's will is un-justicable and un-reviewable that means they can't be sued, arrested, or held to account in any way. 

The only time the Monarch was held to account, arrested and brought to justice was Charles 1, and parliament had to write special laws for that situation. His immediate replacement, Oliver Cromwell, got rid of those laws and the parliamentarian, John Pym, who'd written them.

And when we brought in William of Orange in the glorious revolution, it was reaffirmed in the contract that they made him sign to usher in the constitutional monarchy. 

All to say that even if Harold wins his case and has cast iron reasons and evidence to sue Charles for being stripped of his security or any other reason, he can't sue Charles personally because no court or judge in the land would hear his case. Not the high court nor Supreme court not the EU. I doubt even ICC would hear the case. 

The only way to do it is to do what John Pym did......write new laws in parliament that turn KC3 into an ordinary citizen that can be sued, and hope you don't get the same result that we got with KC1, a 10yr civil war that ended with the death of the King.

what do you think about part 1 VoTe Naruto vs War Hinata

Imo i think it's a stale mate tbh, lion fist can absorb charkra and KC1 Naruto is op (fast as fuck, strong as fuck)

And also him vs start of Shippuden Sakura and or pre seal Sakura

I think War Hinata she is around jonin level by then and the gentle fist and lion fist would be a big help and with the Byakugan she can keep up with him speed wise. Add that KC1 Naruto is basically on a time limit Hinata should manage to either take him out or out last him.

As for Sakura KC1 Naruto likely wins as fighting isn't her strong suit, but also her healing gets canceled out by toxicity of the nine tails chakra. Sakura really doesn't have much going for her.

[kmcascia]

Mittens has been defeated. By smallfish. Very interesting example of computer logic. Lots of odd back and forth moves, general unwillingness to break up solid defense to facilitate attack. Sharp complicated exchanges that yield an advantage for white. And then the slow torturous turns of the screw to press that adavantage home. horribly efficient, as the move breakdown shows

Kingdom Come

Warnings: Knights, Inappropriate behaviour 

AO3

Chapter 1

The kingdom of Morningstar was a proud one. Its territory spanned from the coast, all the way to the mountains. The soil was rich and fertile and its people prosperous. The kingdoms military was unrivalled, keeping the kingdom secure and safe from any threats. It was also unique; the Morningstar military allowed women to become knights. It was the highest a woman could go socially without being married, and it was the option in life that you chose too. Your family wasn’t particularly rich and marrying up would be impossible for you. And anyway, you were not prepared to marry just yet. You wanted to see what the world had to offer. So you worked hard. The training at the Robichaux military academy was rigorous and hard, you had the scars to remember your time there. But to you, it was all worth it. Your work paid off when you were given the position of ‘royal knight’. This truly was the highest one could go. You were trusted enough to guard your king and his family, to proudly walk the halls of the royal palace with your sword by your side. Your village celebrated your achievement with great joy, everybody congratulating you as you returned to say your goodbyes before moving to the palace grounds. You were glad the pay was good too, meaning your parents no longer had to work the long and back breaking hours that they did, you could repay them for all they had done for you by making their lives a little more comfortable. You could also send your siblings to better schools, allowing them to make something of themselves and live comfortably. To you nothing could go wrong now. The chances of war were almost impossible, and you were sure you could patrol the palace halls with your eyes closed.

However, the universe did not allow your peace for long. The king had fallen ill. Everyone eventually met their end and he was coming on in age. But what truly turned the world on his head were his orders. Holy men and law makers alike were up in arms about the decision. The king’s children protested the possibility of this historical change. The king would possibly legitimise a bastard son. It was unheard of and improper. The existence of this bastard was an open secret, but no one expected that he would ever be allowed to set foot into the palace halls. In fact, the rumour was that the crown prince would have him killed as soon as he was coronated. A man like that would only cause problems until his last breath and the royal family would have none of it. The only reason he was allowed to live up until now was the soft spot the king had for his mistress; any other potential bastards were killed as soon as they were discovered, and the king made sure of that, keeping a record of the women he had shared the bed with. The task of retrieving the man was up to you. You expected someone of a higher ranking to be given the task, but the palace needed to be protected by the most experienced during the kingdoms vulnerable period. //// The journey was long and difficult. Your party had a three-day journey to make on horseback, into the furthest reaches of the kingdom. Your plan was to only spend one night in the area, as the man had been informed of the move weeks prior. You breathed a sigh of relief when you spotted the large iron gates. You dismounted from your horse and pulled the hood of your cloak down. The guard leered at you before noticing your uniform, quickly standing up straight and letting you into the manor grounds. You thanked him with a nod. A short and dark-haired woman was waiting for you at the manor entrance, he all black attire made her almost blend into the night that surrounded you. “State your name and your business here,” she spoke out to you. “Dame Y/N Y/SN, a knight a royal order, I am here by order of His Royal Majesty the King,” you held a scroll out to her. “We are here to ensure Lord Michael Langdon arrives to the capital safely as his presences is requested by His Majesty.” You held your head high and met her gaze with the same intensity. She closed the scroll and smiled. “We’ve been expecting your arrival, I am Miriam Mead. Please do come in, the servants will ensure your horses are looked after.” You simply nodded and followed behind. //// It was obvious that this manor was a former royal residence, apparently it was the King’s favourite before it was gifted to his mistress. Everything was artisanal and expensive. Fabrics and furnishings from lands afar, hours of painstaking work in every piece. It was all well looked after, not a speck of dust. You weren’t surprised, the king provided a healthy stipend that paid for the staff and luxuries. You were also sure that Michael had his own business too, as far as you were aware, he was well educated and well connected. You never were one to involve yourself in rumours, but your stop in the nearby town had you worried. The man had a reputation. But then again, who were you to judge, the royals you served were also involved in scandal and debauchery, they did not have a leg to stand on when it came to socially acceptable behaviour. Lost in thought, you didn’t realise that you had stopped in an elaborate dining room. You looked at Ms Mead with a questioning look. “My Lord would like to dine with the knights that have come to escort him,” she explained. This was very strange; nobility didn’t usually dine with knights. “I’m not really dressed for dinner,” you joked with the woman, pointing to you travelling armour. You men snickered at your comment. “Please disarm before you are seated, your gear will be retuned to you in the morning before your departure.” You gave her another confused expression, looking back at your men that wore the same look. “I’m being serious. Lord Langdon has many enemies, so we have to be extra careful, just in case.” You couldn’t really argue with her reasoning. You nodded and removed all your weapons, handing them to the staff that was waiting. The doors swung open just as you were handing you sword over. A man with blond curls walked into the room. He walked with authority and confidence; you knew by looking at him that this was the man that you were here for. His blue eyes glimmered in the candlelight as he sized up your crew. “I see, the king thinks I do not need a high security escort.” The sound of his voice halted every other sound in the room, you were sure you were holding your own breath. “And what about you?” he moved closer to you, not hiding his wandering eyes, “a gift from my father?” You couldn’t hide your expression of disgust. Upon a closer look, he looked more like his father than any of the King’s other children. He seemed to have the same attitude too. This was going to be a long few days. “I’m Dame Y/SN,” you bowed slightly, “I am here to over see your journey to the Palace,” you gave him a polite smile. “How interesting,” he moved away from you and to the dining table. “Well, I must thank you for travelling this far, please, join me for dinner,“ he gestured at the table, before seating himself at the top of the table. You hesitated before making your way to the table. You chose the seat furthest away from him as you weren’t prepared to engage in any small talk. He had already left a bad taste in your mouth. However, his eyes never left you during the mean, his gaze burning into you the whole time. //// It was finally time to retire for the evening, a long journey ahead of you. You breathed a sigh of relief as you pulled your hair out of its tight bun, lightly massaging your scalp to ease the ache. Luckily for you, you were placed in the female servants’ quarters, engaging in light chatter and trying to listen for any information about your host. A maid was bashfully explaining her encounter with him in the library just before you had arrived. None of this shocked you though, his father and brothers were the same type of men. The egos on these men were bigger than their dicks, the vice of pride had an iron grip on them. You settled into bed as the chatter continued around you, the tiredness finally caught up and you drifted off to the white noise. //// The sound of footsteps woke you from your slumber. You could feel a presence in the room, the smell of cinnamon wafting through the air. You kept your eyes shut and reached underneath your pillow for the dagger you hid in you boot earlier. You never fully disarmed, a lesson you learned at Robichaux the hard way. You felt a weight on you, you shot up, dagger pointed at the intruder. Your eyes adjusted to the darkness and the identity of your assailant shocked you. It was Michael. He let out a low chuckle, bringing his finger to his lips in a ‘shh’ motion. You looked around the room to see everyone else in a deep sleep. As you looked back at him, you realised your dagger had grazed him, a light trail of blood trickled down his cheekbone. He said nothing as he gripped your hand, pulling the dagger away and towards his mouth. He smirked, before licking the blade, keeping his eyes locked with yours. Your breathing was heavy, hand trembling in his vice grip. After he had finished, his grip on your hand tightened enough for the dagger to slip. He said nothing as he took it, inspecting the blade. He stood, pocketing your weapon, and without a word, he left. //// The incident from last night had you on high alert. You had breakfast with the rest of the staff, going on to give out instructions to all the staff that would be travelling with you. The carriages were double checked for any security issues and the final bits of luggage was loaded. Your weapons were returned earlier in the day. You were talking to Ms Mead, before you were irrupted by Michael himself. “I thought id come ask the two ladies in charge myself if we were ready to depart or not.” “The final checks have been completed my Lord. We are ready when you are,” you answered. “Very well then. I need to confirm my lodgings during the journey with Ms Mead then we shall be on our way.” “There is no need,” Ms Mead interrupted, “I was just speaking to Y/N over here, your lodgings haven been organised by the king my lord, you will be staying in royal residencies along the way.” Michael simply nodded at the information. You bowed as your name was called by one of your men, leaving the pair as they were whispering to one another. To your benefit, the royal lodgings had separate barracks for knights, allowing you to avoid the man for the next three days. //// You had never been more thankful to see the city gates of the capital. The past three days had been difficult. Your charge just couldn’t seem to behave himself, causing problems in every little town you had stopped in. The money you had to pay off was so much it had eaten into your personal allowance. It would be returned to you, but you still had to fill out the long expenses report. Your horse also seemed excited at the prospect of a long rest, speeding up through the city, knowing her way to the destination. You dismounted to pass through the rear palace gates. Michael was not yet important enough to be let in through the front. The thought made you chuckle as you were sure he was scowling at the fact. Your superior was waiting to welcome the guest, u made sure you conveyed the emotions you were feeling through your facial expression. He bit back a smile. You handed the scroll of orders to him, transferring all responsibility to him from here on out. You hoped to never meet Michael again, not even for the return of the army issued dagger. You were sure you could explain why it was missing. You left before the carriage door even opened, hoping to relax in the nice and warm bathhouse. //// Michael would have a personal meeting with the king, no one else would be present. All Michael knew was that he had to prove himself to his father. To show the king that he too was worthy of the title of prince. He had suffered with a lowly title for years, knowing in his heart of hearts that he was destined for more, destined for greater things. His mother and Ms Mead raised him to hold his head high no matter what, and take every opportunity that he could, even if he had to fight for it or snatch it away. He had spent most of his life doing whatever he wanted. Living under constant scrutiny in the palace would be difficult, but he’d adjust, he prided himself in his adaptability. He’d do anything to get to where he wanted to be and the royal family was not prepared for how far he would actually go. //// You headed to the dining hall after your bath. You looked forward to sharing a meal with friends. However, you were stopped by your superior before reaching the dining hall. “Y/N, you need to get changed, your presence has been requested by the king,” he ordered. The look of shock on your face was spectacular. Had Michael told the king about the dagger incident? Was this the end of your career? All for harming a bastard prince. You nodded and ran to your quarters, changing into the clothing you had for the occasion. Your superior stood waiting for you, not saying a word as you walked to the destination. You wanted to run as the doors slowly opened, revealing the king on his throne and Michael with his back to you. You stepped into the room and bowed low to the king, going through will all the formalities before standing up straight. “Lord Langdon has praised your work, Dame Y/SN,” the king spoke. Michael ground his teeth at the ‘Langdon’ moniker. It felt like a kick in the teeth to him, he was just as deserving of the ‘Morningstar’ name as the rest of his siblings.

“Thank you Your Majesty and Thank you my Lord,” you replied. “I have decided to make you his personal knight for the time being and you are free to choose the staff that will accompany you. I’m sure you are aware of the magnitude of this task.” “Yes your Majesty. I thank you for this honour,” you bowed again. Michael grinned at you, making you fear exactly what his motives were. There were only so many daggers you could be issued. “Sir Moore will have further instructions, you are dismissed,” the King finished. You bowed before leaving the room again. You didn’t speak until you were out of earshot. “He’s only been here a few hours and I can already tell he’s up to something,” John Henry said. He was your superior. You nodded at his observation having witnessed the scheming personality for three days straight. You prayed to the gods above that Langdon’s stay would not be long. Your prayers fell on deaf ears. You would spend the rest of your life cursing the crown you has sworn your life to.
