HT8: Why are we in a coffee shop?

KF: Even kings need caffeine!

HT8: Aha! I'm surprised you gave away your weakness so quickly!

KF: I prefer to call it…indulgence….in decadence.

BAR: Wow, you make coffee sound so sexy!

KF: How could I not? Drinking the beverage makes me feel ever more so…..virile.

HT8: Harrumph. What did your virility help you with again? Recieving the French pox?

KF: A present I would have returned, but alas!

BAR: (Hanging on Francois's every word) What happened?

KF: The lady neglected to leave the gift receipt!

BAR: Well, if you need a job to pay off your…debts, you're welcome here. Better than….THAT GUY.

(The Barista points to the corner, where Shakespeare is holding two cups of coffee)

SHAKE: Friends! Romans! Countrymen! LEND ME YOUR LATTEES!

BAR: He's been botching Shakespeare all day!

SHAKE: Frappuchino, Frappuchino, wherefore art thou Frappuchino? It is the east, and Starbucks is…THE SUN.

KF: Oh no madame! I do believe a writer has the right to edit his own work!

BAR: You're saying that's….Shakespeare.

KF: Oui!

BAR: Of course he is. And I'm the Queen of England.

ET: Did someone call me?

BAR: Are all of you headed to a renaissance fair or something?

KF: Non! We were just headed back to my castle

BAR:(Flirting) I would be honored to see it one day, your majesty.

KF: I'll make sure to open up my moat.

HT8: Come on you idiot, time to go.

KF: But….but….we need our coffee…..

HT8: But…but…WE'RE DEAD YOU IMBECILE. CAFFEINE WON'T CHANGE THAT!

ET: What's this? Is my father actually being the voice of reason?

HT8: Are you proud of me Bessy?

ET: I've always been proud to be your daughter.

HT8: Really?

ET: But of course. Now come. I wish to start our Disney Movie party already.

KF: OOH, CAN WE START WITH THE LITTLE MERMAID?

HT8: No, we're watching the Lion King.

KF: THE LITTLE MERMAID.

HT8: THE LION KING! HAKUNA MATATA!

ET: We're watching Hercules first. Come along kings.

KF, HT8: (Defeated) As you wish.

(Now, open up your imaginations faster than a bag of cookies, because now our heros are at a CASTLE!)

HT8: Francois.

KF: Oui?

HT8: Are you sure this is the right castle?

KF: But of course! I rented it out, just for our Disney Movie party!

ET: The setting hasn't changed since last chapter father.

HT8: BUT THIS IS PRINCESS PEACH'S CASTLE! I THINK I WOULD'VE NOTICED!

KF: So you play video games too? THIS PLEASES ME GREATLY!

ET: Careful with your words Francois, you might just set off secret Henry/Francois shippers!

JR: I KNEW IT! TUMBLR AWAITS!

HT8: Was that….

ET: Jane Rochford.

HT8: Oh dear.

KF: Oh dear is right. Who is that standing at my castle entrance?

KJ: You don't recognize me?

KF: No.

KJ: Surely you recognize me Henry?

HT8: Can't say I do!

KOA: You may not recognize the man, but perhaps you'd remember his bloody coat?

HT8: OMG. YOU'RE THE KING OF SCOTS!

KJ: Is that what my legacy is reduced to? A soiled article of clothing?

KOA: Sorry James. That's what happens when you invade my country.

HT8: Excuse me madam, it was, and still is MY COUNTRY!

KOA: Do you want me to reduce your legacy to a bloody article of clothing as well?

KF: Oh ho ho! How on earth will you respond to that Henry?

HT8: Shut up Francois!

KF: Only trying to help…(*Sniffles*)

KOA: Oh look, now you've hurt his feelings!

KJ: DOES ANYBODY CARE ABOUT MY FEELINGS?

(Henry, Francois, and Katharine head inside the castle, ignoring James. Elizabeth stays, looking amused.)

ET: I'm impressed!

KJ: By what? My intellect? My delectable Scottish looks?

ET: Your ability to make Katharine of Aragon visibly upset. No small feat!

(Elizabeth saunters into the castle, leaving James, who runs in quickly after her.)

KF: Oh boo hoo, Henry hates meeeeee…..

HT8: That's not true Francois, you know I say things I don't mean in fits of temper.

AT: Look at you two sounding like an old married couple.

KF: Ooh, who gets to be the husband?

HT8: DON'T ENCOURAGE MY BROTHER!

KF: So you are the famous brother-who-died!

AT: I do have a name you know.

KOA: Such a lovely name really.

AT: Kat!

KOA: My dear Artie.

AT: You look hot.

KOA: Pardon?

AT: I MEAN YOU LOOK QUITE LOVELY.

KF: Your brother seems to be overtaken by lust Henry! Are you not jealous that he called Katharine hot?

HT8: They've always been married in the eyes of God. Why should I care if he likens her to a temperature?

AT: We never slept together.

HT8: Course you did. Did you not say the day after your wedding night that you needed a drink because you had, "Been in the midst of Spain?"

AT: (Blushing furiously) A teenager's cockiness….

KOA: World Geography was never Arthur's strong suit.

HT8: Still say that you two did the deed!

AT: Aw, is my wittle brother trying to defend the validity of his marriage to the lady Anne?

HT8: I DID NOT MARRY SHE-WHO-MUST-NOT-BE-NAMED!

AT: Are you sure? I had a look at some of your love letters to her. They were so sweet.

KOA: How on earth did you get those? I thought they had ended up in the Vatican Archives?

AT: Oh my dear, I have my ways.

ME: How did those end up at the Vatican anyways?

HT8: I almost forgot about you Lady Interviewer!

ME: Why thank you. It's nice to know I am so loved.

AT: I apologize for my dear brother's insensitivity.

HT8: Don't apologize for me!

AB: Be careful Arthur, if you started apologizing for all of Henry's faults, you might die again from exhaustion!

AT: The warning is much appreciated.

HT8: Any faults I have madam, are eclipsed by your many flaws TEN FOLD!

AB: It's nice to see you too.

KF: Anne! Now that you're here, the party can TRULY BEGIN!

KJ: I object!

HT8: Oh, what NOW?

KJ: There is one thing I must know!

KOA: Oh, I'll get your cursed coat dry-cleaned!

KJ: That is not it! Although... that would be nice!

KF: Hurry with your inquiry then! I can only afford to rent this castle for so long!

KJ: Don't rush me Frenchman! Why did you bar my descendants from your succession Henry? WHY?

HT8: That is a matter between me and Margaret!

ET: James, you have failed to realize who I named as my successor.

MQOS: My son! My beautifully amazing and wonderful son!

ET: Ah yes, I left my throne to Queen James.

MQOS: You're just jealous!

ET: That he had more male admirers than I?

MQOS: That I ultimately triumphed over you!

ET: I really did feel bad about having you executed you know.

HT8: That is why women shouldn't rule! They get too emotional over matters!

AB: Just stop. Just stop talking.

HT8: It's true!

AB: I don't think you can talk until you have an era named after you.

HT8: That's true! Bessy, why didn't you have my reign named as the Henrician Era?

ET: My apologies Father, I was a bit busy.

AB: Oh, don't apologize, he's just upset his reign didn't get called, "The Golden Age."

KF: SACRE BLEU!

(Everyone whirls around to see Francois, standing at the entrance to the next room. )

Me: The whole room's been ransacked!

KF: THEY'VE TAKEN ALL THE DISNEY MOVIES!

HT8: Who could've done such a heinous thing?

AB: Someone who obviously didn't realize they could just download all the movies on Netflix.

HT8: I bet it was Wolsey!

AB: When is it not?

KOA: I third that! Who else could it have been?

TB: LET'S SEND THAT BASTARD TO THE FIERY PITS OF HELL!

KOA: I imagine you're well acquainted with that area!

Me: Papa Boleyn! How have you been?

TB: Trying to buy stock in Cromwell Coffees.

HT8: TREASON! TREASON!

AT: Shut up brother, I've discovered the perpetrators!

HT8: ALREADY?

KF: What a weak cliffhanger!

Me: Oh shut up, I need to go sign up for summer school!

KOA: Until next time readers!


Thank you all so so so so so so so much for reading! :D
