@JCSalad James smiles. “Thank ye, I appreciate that. Did ye like the speech? I didn’t tell anyone that I’d be making it.”

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad He nods. “I do. Thank ye, I consider what ye just did to be a miracle.” He stands up and offers a hand up for them.

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad He gets out of his chair, kneeling down so he can kiss them on the lips.

“There is now. ❤️ How the hell did ye do that? It usually takes me a whole evening to recover when I’m in that state.”

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad He sniffs the air and nods.

“Smoke, since ye blew out some of the candles to dim the room.”

He realizes that their strategy is working: he somehow feels much calmer than before.

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad He runs his hand along the wooden arm of the chair he’s in, then gestures to it while looking at Juls.

“Chair,” he says matter-of-factly.

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad “Um… I don’t think there’s 4. These walls are thick, it’s just yer voice and mine. What is this, a game for children?”

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad “Hm?” He looks up at them. “Ye, table, crown, cape, um- bed.”

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad He does as he’s told. Strange, he briefly thinks, that he’s crowned and so quickly taking someone else’s orders.

He closes his eyes. “Thank God it’s quiet in here…”

Philip Herbert opens the door. “Your Majesty, I-“

“No, out!” James snaps. Philip leaves.

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad He swallows. “So many people. So much cheering. It’s like damned bees buzzing within my head. Not that I’m not grateful!”

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad He takes off his crown and sets it on the table, then undoes his fur cape as fast as his fingers allow him, letting it slide off his shoulders and fall to the floor. He takes deep breaths, the overwhelming day catching up with him.

@JCSalad After the ceremony is over, there’s a procession through the streets, and James waves to his new English subjects from atop his horse.

Later, it’s finally time for him to retire to his room, and he asks Juls to come along.

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad He gives a speech about how being king is like being a father, a doctor, and a teacher to a whole country of people all at once. He talks about how he has many years of experience ruling in Scotland, and hopes to transfer that knowledge and experience here in England.

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad James bit his lip slightly, but hardly anyone noticed the exchange between them.

He then stood up.

“I know that this isn’t typical, but I wish to make a speech, as yer newly crowned king.”

[Gabrielle Montoya (Parody) @_GabrielMontoya]

@JCSalad bishops read some prayers. He saw Juls standing there and held their gaze for a moment.

@JCSalad James and Anne were sitting on their thrones, James held a scepter. The Archbishop of Canterbury (named John Whitgift) performed the ceremony, laying the crowns on the heads of the new king and queen. James looked out at the crowd of nobles with immense pride while the +

@JCSalad She grins. “Oh thank you! Well first, in Latin class I learned-“

“I promise you can tell them about your Latin later, princesa, but it’s time to go in!” Gabi ushered the children into the throne room and motioned for Juls to come with.
