@TheSilkenBlade “To be fair, the last gift was given after I soundly beat him and his army. We know he doesn’t like losing. As for him being on a bad mood? Can’t say I care.”

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade “Exactly. So one has to be prepared for the bad mood you’re likely to be faced with when speaking with him.” He winked and then chuckled.

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade “When is he not, Lorraine?” An amused laugh left the Dutchman and he shrugged his shoulders ever so wlkhkrlt as he took a sip of water.

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade The prince covered his mouth with a frill covered hand. “Fret not. I have enjoyed them. Thank you.” He smiled a little and nodded as he sat back in his chair once more.

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

He he been working but he’s around. Glances up from his tea and smiles. “What did you bring?”

[The Chevalier (parody) @TheSilkenBlade]

I have a gift for my little Appelflap. Where is he hiding? He better not be off doing something so dull as /working/!

@DutchAmbition

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade “Oh? And what is your goal, Chevalier de Lorraine?” He leaned forward, ever so slightly, a smile on his lips.

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade “You seem completely at ease in front of a head of state. You’re either bold or foolish. I choose to believe the positive one.”

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade “You are quite bold aren’t you, Monsieur Chevalier?” William remarked as the Chevalier sat down, enjoying another of the pastries.

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade “Yes. I am honestly enjoying these.” William nodded and ate another one before leaning back, taking another sip of his tea.

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade “You made them yourself? Even nicer.” William smiled and enjoyed another pastry, sipping tea in between bites to keep his throat moist.

“Thank you.”

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade William chuckled and smiled. “Thank you, Monsieur Chevalier.” He picked up one of the pastries and gently placed it in his mouth, savouring it.

“Delightful.”

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

Raising his own cup of tea, William took a sip and smiled. “The Netherlands are beautiful, although the weather isn’t grand either. I’ve been busy with politics but thought a return to court would rejuvenate my mind.”

[༄ ℂ𝕙𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕖𝕤 𝕊𝕥𝕦𝕒𝕣𝕥 ༄ @MerriestMonarch]

"It is England in the fall. Which means it is gloomy, rainy and the weather is almost as dreadful as the food," he shrugged before picking up a cup of tea. "I was bored, and decided a return to court was in order. And you?"

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

“All is very well, thank you, uncle. I take it all is well in your lands as well?” He tilted his head slightly.

[༄ ℂ𝕙𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕖𝕤 𝕊𝕥𝕦𝕒𝕣𝕥 ༄ @MerriestMonarch]

"Then we must share a drink to mark our returns," he nodded back with a small smile. "All well in your lands?"

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

Appreciates the sentiment, smiles and winks to Le Roi.

[⚜️ Roi François Ier ⚜️ @RoiFrancoisI]

He doesn't think a King of France should be rooting for @DutchAmbition but here we are.

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

“You do, uncle.” William smiled softly and lowered his head a little.

[༄ ℂ𝕙𝕒𝕣𝕝𝕖𝕤 𝕊𝕥𝕦𝕒𝕣𝕥 ༄ @MerriestMonarch]

Does he see that @DutchAmbition is also back at court after hopefully a restful sojourn?

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade Which is very much what it is.” He glanced to the Chevalier and smiled ever so slightly at his comment about the exterior.

“Truth is, I don’t think we always do manage. Being a leader is being an actor in many ways — you have so many audiences you need to convince.”

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade “Not one for horses? I enjoy them because it’s the one time I can’t guarantee I’m completely in control.” William chuckled and winked, before taking a sip of the white wine and resting back once more.

“I don’t mind others watching me play cards. I love a good game of strategy.—

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade nodded and smiled with a soft thanks. “I appreciate that.”

When the other returned, he took the wine and closed his eyes as he took a long sip.

“I enjoy games that involve horse riding, such as polo. Though cards are enjoyable for the mind.”

[Willem Hendrik van Oranje-Nassau @DutchAmbition]

@TheSilkenBlade “You think I’m warm and sweet on the inside? Most would disagree with that. Perhaps I would disagree with it myself. Though arguably being perceived as such wouldn’t be particularly useful for me in the grand scheme of things either.”

At the offer of fetching his wine, he —
