Knowing that Angelina was in the common room loosing her mind because of all the studying she was doing Fred, being the caring friend he was, decided he'd go and visit her. Walking from the dorms to the common room he didn't expect the first thing he would see to be a giant fort. Sure, Angelina had talked about building one but he'd thought she was joking. He chuckled to himself then made a noise that was meant to imitate a trumpet fanfare. "His royal higness, King Fred, has arrived!" he announced once he'd finished the fanfare. He then crawled through and looked around. "Nice work." he commented. "You are quite brilliant. I especially love the picture of the king." He wriggled around a little until he was comfortable then continued to speak. "I see our people are still yet to arrive." |

She threw her books down quicker than she should have been proud of. There were many things that Angelina was but bookish wasn’t one of them. She did alright in her classes but she’d never be the top of any class. She really didn’t want to look at them and besides the sound of fanfare even by Fred made for a fine distraction. She rose to her feet and did a mocking curtsey to him. “Her Royal Highness, Queen Angelina did not much care for her books and go a bit carried away with this fort idea,” she said with a mischievous laugh. It was the truth. She had gotten quite carried away with her project but there was nothing that could be done for it but enjoy the madness. “Alas, it is just her and the king. Whatever shall they do? Being that they’re so brilliant and all. She will really not know how to handle herself if he suggests studying.” (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |

Ah, just how it should be. People curtsying and bowing as soon as he walked into the room. Pity it didn't happen more often. Fred really could get used to this king business. "His Royal Highness, King Fred, is glad that Queen Angelina made this fort because Kings and Queens need somewhere to live." Madness was fun so Fred was always happy to be involved in it. "The King and Queen will definitely not be studying. They can get their slaves to do their NEWTs for them." Oh, how he wished. "Maybe the King should go to the kitchens and etch some food even if it isn't as good as the King's mother's food. A picnic in a fort could be fun." (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |

Angelina brightened at the idea of food and her stomach rumbled. Some girls didn't like to eat but she wasn't one of them. She was always ready and willing. She would have become a blimp if it weren't for good genetics and a lot of Quidditch practice. "The queen very much likes the Kings ideas. She especially likes the idea of a picnic," she said with a smile. "She thinks that she could allow the round table to serve for their feast and then there should be massive amounts of snuggling because the evil Witch Umbridge has made hre day a living hell." And that wasn't an understatement. If they hadn't been friends for so long there might have been some concern that this might have been pushing the limits of insanity. They had their serious moments (sometimes) but this wasn't one of them. Everyone else would just have to deal. (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |

"Great. The King will disappear for a few minutes and make the loyal servants in the kitchen prepare a feast for the Queen, the king and any loyal subjects that choose to join." he smiled at Angelina. "Then the King will return to claim the snuggling the Queen suggested." Fred bowed then exited the fort. The two of them were definitely insane but it was fun so who really cared? A few minutes later King Fred returned with the feast. "The King hopes the Queen is hungry." he said as he placed the basket of food the house elves had given him on the table. "The slaves are going to eat very well tonight if you're not." (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |

She was completely amused by the time he left her. She would have been laughing hysterically if this sort of behavior wasn't the typical for them. They did things like this all the time. Just not normally on this level. Tonight was decidedly on an upswing. She wouldn't have wanted to spend her time any other way with or without loyal subjects in addition to her King. When he returned she glanced eagerly at the basket. "What a good provider our king is!" she said offering a congratulatory kiss to his cheek and opening the basket to take some of it out so they could decide what they wanted from it. Much to her chagrin there were Bangers and Mash. Her favourite. "I believe the Queen will eat well. The King must sit with her and enjoy too though," she said. This talking about herself in third person thing was sort of weird though. Fun but weird. She made a point to pat one of the pillows that went with the round table to him join her. |

Katie finished the last sentence of her charms essay and sighed a "DONE!" before jumping of her bed and doing a little jig. Homework is always a downer. She never really got why they had to do homework, especially seeing as they were still at school and didn't leave to go home until holidays. So the whole homework thing was pointless. You do work in class and that's it. Katie packed her things away and bounced down the stairs to the common room and saw the sight before her. It was an actual fort! Katie burst out laughing and gasped out the words "You've got to be kidding!" Before crumbling into a fit of giggles while clutching her stomach. She didn't think that Angelina would actually make a fort! She thought that it was all a joke! But this was even funnier! |

Alicia had been trying to work on her Transfiguration essay, really! But when Angelina had run into the dorm room, grabbed all the pillows, and ran back out, well, anybody would've been distracted, right? She actually managed to jot down a few more sentences (though they didn't make much sense) while resisting the temptation to see what was going on. But when she heard laughter and shouting, Alicia decided she'd already exerted enough self-control for the day. She took the stairs two at a time, and when she got to the bottom she found quite a sight: Katie was collapsing in peals of laughter while Fred was handing Angelina a basket. Oh, and there was a giant fort made of couches and sheets and pillows behind them. Alicia just grinned. "Angelina -- or should I say Your Majesty? -- you are truly wonderful. I'm proud to call myself your Lady in Waiting." |

"The King will be eating too." Fred replied, reaching into the basket and pulling out a muffin. He was about to take his seat on the pillows when he heard laughing. "Loyal subject Katie!" he exclaimed. "Come and join our feast." Then Alicia arrived. "Finally, they're all arriving! The King knew the food would lure them here." Fred said with a grin. |

Angelina was happy that two more of her friends had arrived. There was certainly space for them in her Fort Kingdom. The fact they were amused made her happy. After all, they could all use a little more laughter these days and it was nice to be the cause of it. It was often Fred or George who brought it out of people. “About time they arrived. I was about to announce another proclamation that would be off with their heads for disappointing their Majesty,” Angelina said talking to all three of them at once in a weird way. “Come on your two, join us. Your King just brought enough food to feed all of the Tower. Help me eat it.” |

Katie was just about finished laughing, but started all over again as soon as she heard Fred, Angelina and Alicia talk weirdly. This was just too much! Maybe they had finally snapped from NEWTs. Seeing as Katie was a year below, she didn't have to worry about it now. Katie finally settled down as she heard the word food. With "Her Majesty's" blessing, she ran over and grabbed some food and sat down. "So," Katie said with a mouth full of food. "You gonna all talk like that from now on?" |

Angelina took it upon herself to answer that one. She had no intention of talking like this forever but it would certainly do for now. They were sounding sort of nutty but there was nothing wrong with that. The question really was when Katie was going to accept the fact she doomed to be nutty right along with them and talk like that too. "You're missing out," she said with a shrug. "This is why you're just a lady in waiting and I'm Queen. We have groovy lingo and you don't." (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |

"Exactly." agreed Fred. "We talk cooly, you don't. Your loss not ours." He then realised that he'd broken out of the royal speaking thing and so repeated everything he'd just said. "The King agrees with the Queen. The king and queen are the mostimportant people and so speak better than everyone else. The loyal subjects miss out." He grinned the reached back into the basket of food to see what else was in there. He pulled out a bread roll and began to it eat. (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |

Angelina mentally noted that was a good save. The food was good and so there wasn't a whole lot of talking going on with the food consumption and all. She was okay with that. She supposed. It always felt weird when there was too much silence going on anyways. "Proclamation # 5 is that my loyal subjects shall have snuggle time too if the Sir Jester and the Groom of the Stool arrive duly," she announced happily. "Nothing like a group bonding experience to please the Queen. She likes high morale." She wasn't sure where she'd come at the conclusion Lee would be the Groom of the Stool but it seemed ironic enough to be fitting. She just wished she had stated said proclamation when they all didn't have food in their mouths. (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |

Groom of stool? Fred tried to hold back a laugh but didn't succeed so spluttered food everywhere. "The King thinks that the Groom of Stool is a fitting job for Lee." he then remembered a conversation that he'd ahd with Sylvie and started laughing again. "It's fitting because apparently he has a nice arse himself but instead of people getting to look at it, he has to look at other peoples." (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |

That made the queen sputter. Not just sputter but choke and give the King a rather strange glance. Once she regained her composure, she managed a headshake and a "You really shouldn't make comments about how nice Lee or any other bloke's bum is, Fred. You sound like a bloody pouf." Not that she had problems with that but still. She wasn't certain that Fred wanted to sound like that. "The Queen is seeking to protect her king from rumours." (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |

"I was just repeating what Sylvie told me!" Fred protested. "I've never checked out Lee myself but Syl seems to have pretty good taste in guys so I trust her opinion on their arses." he added. "The King is thankful that the Queen is trying to protect the King from rumours." he finsihed before rummaging through thebasket for another bread roll. Those house elves could sure cook well!

The Queen spooned shoveled another bite of mash into her mouth and wasn't terribly surprised to hear Sylvie had a role in that. The poor girl's reputation preceded herself. Plus she had read some of her comments about her friends in the past. She hadn't been pleased and that was putting it mildly. "Of course, you'd think that," Angelina told him dropping the Queen thing for a moment laughing incrediously. "She'd totally have her wicked ways with you, my king. One could hope you haven't become so desperate for attention that you would go for that sort of thing. " And to shut herself up she reached for a roll in the basket.

Heh... She sort of already had. he hadn't had sex with her or anything but they had snogged a great deal of times. Maybe it was better Angelina didn't know that, even if he hated keeping secrets from his best friends. Fred just gave Angelina an akward grin and continued to eat his bread. For once he had npthing to say. (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |

The fact he didn't say anything made her frown. Angelina kept herself in check but that didn't mean she had to be pleased with that. She did know Fred and him not saying anything at all meant more than if he did. "Suddenly not so hungry," she announced after another awkward moment. (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |
</a></b></a>funnyfred 2007-10-28 01:17 (link) | |
And Fred did know Angelina. Her not eating was a bad sign. Maybe he should tell her... "Sylvie's my neighbour. We're good friends." So maybe it wasn't the whole truth but at least it had broken the silence. (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |

It was a very good thing that Katie and Alicia were still in the room. She shot them a meaningful look that probably spoke volumes in girl speak. She wasn't thick and Fred wasn't giving her credit if he thought she was. If she had less tact, she'd have said precisely what she wanted to say in terms of who she thought Sylvie to be and the sort of people that spent time with her. Fred was above that. Angelina bit her tongue. Sort of. "I'm sure you are," she said fighting back the cool edge of tone that said wasn't happy about it. "Before you go building the Church of England, My King - Remember, Anne Boelyn gets her head chopped off in the end and Henry VIII dies a miserable bastard." (Reply to this)(Parent) (Thread) |
