Dunenewt Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Well, there is one very nice one my age, Beatrice...but they would be relegated to Monarchy of England, and I would be the Emperor of the British Empire.Edit - Edric, I think you meant princesses.

Kirby Gotenks absorbed Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 No, he didn't. It would be right if he said "princesses", but that doesn't necessarily mean he meant to say that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I am aware of that.In future, whenever you think you have anything to say, just assume that I already know. The only other option is that I don't care. In either case, just stop talking to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edric O Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Edit - Edric, I think you meant princesses.No, I didn't. If you married a princess, that wouldn't be interesting at all. Just another boring royal wedding. On the other hand, if you married a prince... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 William isn't ginger, is he...? Looks more blonde to me.Even so, there's nothing wrong with gingers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Also, I'm not a distant cousin, so I'm sure they wouldn't be interested. Now set up Dante with one of the Princes, whilst I slowly take over the country in background, bringing back the Empire...

Dante Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Hey, just because I have a thing for power, gingers and men doesn't mean that I'm willing to overlook- um... What the hell, why not. We'd be divorced in five years anyway, and by then I could afford good lawyers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The monarchy, of course, will have to go. I'll just leave the entire royal family in Dante's capable hands, and get some popcorn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I suppose all Empires are driven by liberalism, which could cause a problem...You could make me the guy in charge of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland (yes, I want all of Ireland, which would be divided into the constituent countries of England, Wales, Ireland, Scotland, Isle of Man, and Cornwall)Hey, just because I have a thing for power, gingers and men doesn't mean that I'm willing to overlook- um... What the hell, why not. We'd be divorced in five years anyway, and by then I could afford good lawyers. Perhaps the one HRH Prince Charles used, who Sir Paul McCartney also used.

Dante Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I am not making monarchial porn for you, Edric.However, by handing over their various estates, holdings, and anything worth any money, you can guarantee that I'll spend the rest of my life being independently (cough) wealthy and performing morally ambiguous scientific experiments in some castle somewhere, and make absolutely no attempt to thwart your rearrangement of the world's power structures.

Dunenewt Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Sounds like Daniel and Marty...or as we know them to be now...Anyway, there is a member on the forum, Simon Christian, and he's forgot his password, could someone from the Staff send him a password? He's one of a growing number on this site who come from the official site, after my endless propaganda posts, and signature images. He's also creating a Dune graphical novel, which looks great so far, and I'm sure he'll post it over here when he can log in. Sandchigger, Hypatia, and our newest member Chanilover are all members on this site that came from the official boards, and I'm sure there's some more.http://forum.dune2k.com/index.php?action=profile;u=5194 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edric O Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I suppose all Empires are driven by liberalism, which could cause a problem...Ah, but we won't have an Empire. We will have an ever-expanding socialist democracy. And the l-word will be forbidden in my presence.You could make me the guy in charge of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland (yes, I want all of Ireland, which would be divided into the constituent countries of England, Wales, Ireland, Scotland, Isle of Man, and Cornwall)Sure, you can be the guy that the Irish and the Scots keep trying to assassinate.I am not making monarchial porn for you, Edric.I was thinking more along the lines of "Your Royal Highness, I will give you a 3 hour head start before I release the bloodhounds. Watch for the landmines and the piranhas in the water. Ready... set... go!"However, by handing over their various estates, holdings, and anything worth any money, you can guarantee that I'll spend the rest of my life being independently (cough) wealthy and performing morally ambiguous scientific experiments in some castle somewhere, and make absolutely no attempt to thwart your rearrangement of the world's power structures.How about if I just give you the castle, free use of the country's newly created extensive public services, and the royal family itself as, erm, volunteers for your morally ambiguous scientific experiments? Oh, I'll throw in Tony Blair and David Cameron too. And a really big fleet of airships. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Experiments and airships. Sounds good to me.Though by the by, I might take it upon myself to remove certain deviants from society. This won't count as thwarting so much as expediating the process. You don't really have any use for David Blunkett, the Beckhams or Charles Clarke anyway.Now that lot would be fun to release onto an assault course. With manticores. Also I make no promises regarding Dunenewt. You can keep the union if you like, but don't touch the ideology. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
