      Ireland rests a heavy burden on his mind these days. No king’s reign, he’s sure of it, has ever seen more tumultuous times than that of holy Richard II, aggrieved on all sides by strokes of fate and enmity and disaster, and yet — and yet, a monarch he remains, untoppled and unbent in righteous defiance of his foes’ most dogged efforts. Such are the trials of a true and just ruler, one who will NOT sway amidst the gusts of malignant wind, will NOT give in to boundless pressure: he must suffer to keep what is his. Ireland here, France there, the parliament on his back, the gentry class suffocating him from the other side; they’re all tearing at him like beasts on a man to be hung, drawn and quartered, 'til nothing remains of him but the crack of decaying bones. His gloom has been strangling him in the splendour of Westminster Hall. To sit in silence, in graceful stillness, half dead already, as cold and dispirited as the statues of his predecessors - no, he could bear it not a second longer! If martyrdom is a gift of the Almighty to prove his love, then so be it, but what a king would it make noble Richard to go to his grave with his mind imbued by woe? Upon his crown, if he dies, then he shall die with pride and dignity, and he shall have lived to make a worthwhile end! 

      And thus, he has no shame to say it - for an escape it was not -, he left London in a great torrent of pomp and riches and his most favoured entourage, heading for Lyndhurst in the South. There, amidst sprinkles of forest, awaits Hatheburgh, his grandfather’s hunting lodge. A palace it still is, two generations down the line, but joyful, free, uncumbered by the politics of blood waiting to be shed. Though he arrived only the other evening, what a miracle cure the opening of those old doors proved! As he rides swiftly beneath the canopy of the trees now, hair aflutter with speed, Richard is feeling rejuvenated already, almost healed, almost alive. Not far behind him, the soil is shaken by the hooves of many a steed, testament to ten of his best men chasing him in good-humoured jest as he, patron of all things alive on English terrain, follows the flight of a nimble-legged stag ever deeper into the woods. With a cry of encouragement, he slaps down the reins onto Barbary’s gleaming neck and sends his loyal horse leaping across a brook with a clench of his thighs. A low-hanging branch whips him across the cheek, leaves a mark of crimson on his skin and a burst of laughter on his lips, heart soaring on the tailwind of wild self-abandon. Would that he had never to return to grim London and its treason-mongering Commons! If he were to ride on for eternity, perhaps he might forget himself long enough to draw up a more hopeful reality before his mind’s eye; one blessing him with the security of former days, or even just a single friend ... 

      A loaf of bread darts past his ear. An egg very narrowly misses his face. A waterskin swirls up before him, split open by the forceful kick of Barbary’s legs. It spills a cloud of dark-red wine through the air, suspended mid-flight for the most fleeting glimmer of a moment like a haze of blood. The king’s horse stumbles, hooves entangled in a square piece of cloth spread out across the forest ground. He halts the animal before it falls, whirling around in great consternation to decipher the source of such comestible bombardment. Why, quite evidently it appears the fault of a lonesome traveller, now pressed against a tree trunk for fear of being trampled into dust --- a madman without doubt, to set up a meal in the very wilderness! A harsh rebuke readies itself on the tip of Richard’s tongue, but it is lost in the turmoil of the gaggle of riders catching up to him, all coming to a perplexed standstill around the wanderer. 

      “ Who art thou, to waylay the king by means of a banquet on the king’s own earth, in the king’s own woods? ” he queries, each syllable drenched in divine sternness. “ Speak thy name and speak it fast, ere I send you flying the way of the eggs, uncivilised knave! ” 

      “ Hallowed majesty, ” wheedles the voice of none other than councillor Owain, always the first to share his unwanted wisdoms, “ I believe it is Sir Aziraphale, whom you sent for to care for your manuscripts, and whom I extended your most generous invitation to but a fortnight ago! ” 

      Oh, indeed? Well, this is what he calls a surprise; a surprise that seizes him by the heart, no less, and tickles a smile of disbelief onto his features. “ What, a knight? A NOBLEMAN is he? The very GENIUS, the very dazzling intellect we have heard no scarce talk of, renowned for his skill and expertise as he is in all the realm? Ha, now that we lay our royal sight upon his stature, we must say he does cut a stately figure, and is remarkably unblemished for one who sees it fit to lurk toad-like on the ground. Sir Aziraphale! How good to see thy fair face at last; more resplendent still it would be if thou wiped off the wine. ” 

      He lies not - there is grace in those eyes, which catch the sunbeams like gems, and honour in the set of that shapely jaw, and --- oh, dare Richard say the courtly library might soon become his most beloved place in all of God's plentiful creation? The shadow is lifted from his mood, his blood is heated with a sudden onrush of delight. A maker of marvellous tomes he was promised, but heavens delivered a true MARVEL. Ah, to see what lies beneath those heavy travel cloaks, the fur-rimmed hood pulled protectively across that golden head against the bite of the spring chill - is it not his right, nay, his DUTY as sovereign? 

      “ Should mine scribe dine in the dirt? ” he carries on with a haughty laugh, stretching out a ringed hand awaiting his subject's devoted kiss. “ Come, my Sir, break bread with me in my hall tonight. Grieve not thy meagre, scattered meal, ‘tis hardly worthy of so refined a mouth. William, descend from thy horse and pass it on to Sir Aziraphale. Thou frown'st?! It is a short walk to the lodge, a small favour to grant our guest and surely none thy legs are too age-worn to brave. Off, off you go! ”

#ElonMusk was reportedly involved in a #romanticaffair last fall with the wife of #Google cofounder #SergeyBrin, a long-time friend of #Musk and a #Tesla investor, the #WallStreetJournal reported. The affair allegedly prompted Brin's divorce from #NicoleShanahan in January, WSJ reported. According to court filings, the two cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split and the filings were submitted just weeks after Brin learned of the affair, according to the Journal. A source close to the matter told the Journal that the #relationship between Musk and Brin has been strained in recent months, and financial advisers instructed Brin to sell his investments in the Tesla CEO's various businesses. Brin formerly invested $500,000 in Tesla in 2008. A source told the Journal that at the time of the affair Brin and Shanahan were separated, but still living together.

Character Interview!

Tagged by: @bifrostgold  ( thank you !! )

Tagging: @protectiveforce / @romanticaffair ,  @captainrcgrs, @spunatlas, @snowregent, @luthortm, @moonbeammuses ( Mona! ), my alter ego @thatcertainnight, you !!

1 ) WHAT DOES YOUR MUSE SMELL LIKE ? Watermelon shampoo and marshmallow-scented body lotion, detergent, expensive leather.

2 ) HOW OFTEN DOES YOUR MUSE BATHE / SHOWER ?  ANY HABITS ?  Oh, whenever the universe deems it fit to supply him with a shower or bathtub! Dirk prefers long, warm, fluffy bubble baths, but will go for a quick shower if he’s in a hurry. He tries to wash himself extensively at least once a day, but life as a holistic detective doesn’t always allow it. 

3 ) DOES YOUR MUSE HAVE ANY TATTOOS OR PIERCINGS ?  Dirk has a Blackwing tattoo on his right hipbone that was given to him in his time as a subject. It’s his Project Icarus symbol (as pictured below), and he dislikes it greatly. 

4 ) ANY BODY MOVEMENT QUIRKS ( EX : LEG SHAKING ) ?  Wiggles. Dirk can never keep himself still, with the tragic exception of deeply traumatic episodes. When he is not bouncing full-bodily, he is very likely to jiggle his legs, tap his foot or fingers, flap his hands, or go for any other way of stimming he can think of. He is known for his frequent and abrupt changes of position, excited gestures and switching between a multitude of facial expressions in under one second.

5 ) WHAT DO THEY SLEEP IN ? Usually, the clothes he was wearing that day. Again, this is a habit grown from his everyday circumstances. If he actually finds the time to change before going to bed, Dirk likes to sleep in his pants and undershirt. He also favours soft, brightly patterned pyjamas, but doesn’t own terribly many of them. 

6 ) WHAT’S THEIR FAVOURITE PIECE OF CLOTHING ?  Dirk adores every single part of his rapidly growing jacket collection, but the yellow one remains an all-time favourite. It’s comfy, it’s his most adored colour, it’s been a loyal companion for several years, it’s got various large pockets for fitting obscure knickknacks into, and he wore it when he met Todd ( aka his favourite person in  the whole of the universe ). He is also particularly fond of his shoes, a pair of well-worn brown Oxfords. 

7 ) WHAT DO THEY DO WHEN THEY WAKE UP ?  Unless the situation dictates he jump into action as soon as he opens his eyes, Dirk usually spends a few minutes pottering about in the kitchen, toothbrush sticking out of his mouth, making a scalding hot cup of breakfast tea to wake him up from his drowsy pout. He really quite likes sleeping in, but unfortunately, it’s not always an affordable luxury. 

8 ) HOW DO THEY SLEEP ?  POSITION ? On his back, legs spread out straight, arms pressed against his sides. It’s an old Blackwing-learned behaviour. When he’s not sleeping in an actual bed, he usually ends up curled into a Dirk-shaped bundle in some corner. 

9 ) WHAT DO THEIR HANDS FEEL LIKE ?  Warm, soft, very restless, thrumming with hyperactive energy, but also with the greatest amount of tenderness. His touch is almost always affectionate. 

10 ) IF YOU KISSED THEM, WHAT WOULD THEY USUALLY TASTE LIKE ? Sunshine and gay panic with a sprinkle of waffles.

🐍 ooc: @romanticaffair​ and I agreed on the headcanon that Aziraphale owns an old Nokia phone (yes, we’re absolutely getting back at Neilman for this post), which was given to him by Crowley and is exclusively used for the purpose of playing Snake. 

Incidentally, Aziraphale thinks that Snake is a feature Crowley put on the phone personally, entrusting the digitalised serpent into Aziraphale’s angelic care. He makes sure to spend several minutes a month feeding what he thinks of as Crowley’s electronic offspring, so that it may grow strong and healthy.

@romanticaffair sent:  “Why is it that an angel can fall but a demon can’t rise?”  (I knowww I have a million things to reply to but... I couldn’t not send this one)

Angels & Demons Starter Sentences

“ Nngh … GRAVITY? ” 

There’s a valid effort to sound suitably non-committal around the ice cream spoon popped into Crowley’s mouth, but he merely succeeds in dribbling a dollop of salted caramel across his chin. Luckily enough, a serpent’s instincts NEVER lie dormant: his tongue darts out in a trice and catches the trickle in the most anatomically implausible way he can think of — just for the sake of hacking the angel off. The faces he makes when something - such as, say, a demon’s table manners - revolts the holiness out of him are to die for.

And he deserves it, the old plonker, for bringing up a subject as sensitive as the ineffability of divine punishment during an ice cream date.

“ Law of nature, I s’ppose, ” he continues, still straining himself to play it cool. ( Like flogging a dead horse. ) Eternal damnation’s not exactly a terrific topic to slurp frozen sugar to, but ... to catch Aziraphale in a philosophical mood is a rarity he can never resist. Try as he might. “ Lots’f things that tumble never come back up. Ah!, you say, er, but that’s, uh, that’s why She gave us wings, right? Well, you know what else’s got wings? - Chickens. And they never fly anywhere ‘cept right into the frying pan. How’s that for benevolent design? Ah, ah -- don’t look so scandalised, angel, I saw you gobble up a DECADE’S worth of nuggets the other day! ” 

Great point. He’s not entirely sure what the point is, other than great, but its greatness is certainly beyond dispute. The thing - the thing he doesn’t want to admit in the presence of the only angel he gives any kind of shit about - is this: it’s not like he hasn’t been TRYING. It’s not like he didn’t plead Her. Didn’t bargain with Her. Try to do the right thing. 

Of course, doing what he thought at the time would surely turn out to have been the right thing all along was what got him the demotion in the first place. 

“ ‘S not our place to rise, Aziraphale. Can’t really soar on burnt feathers, can you? It’s our place to make sure YOUR LOT don’t dare take so much as a single wrong step. Or, ah --- wing flap, if you will.    ... Your double nougat with cinnamon sprinkles’s melting. ”
