[Tap tap.

Tap tap.


Very, very young eyes peeking out from rather pretty gold hair are inspecting this foreign object. He has no inclination that it's recording. The only thing that can record something in his time is a hand, a stylus and paper; or alternatively, a chisel on stone.

He leans back looking quite skeptical. This young boy is unamused, but ever so curious.]


Quid hōc est? Eh... [His lip sticks out and he backs away, dressed in the clothes as pictured in that lovely icon. He brandishes a knife, inspecting it, having temporarily lost interest in the strange lit device.] Lupa! Qui vir odiosus!

[THIS KNIFE WILL HAVE TO DO. But, next door, a THUMP can be heard. The child turns and even over the communicator one can easily hear a very British:]

--Oh bugger! Where's he gone to?

[Gaul's face splits into a childish, highly amused grin and he laughs quietly.] Hehe! [His expression turns playfully vicious and he fixes the knife at his belt--it's apparent now that he's in a kitchen, and he's looking for another knife.]

Flamma fumo est proxima, eh? [Temporarily satisfied, he crosses back to the communicator and peers into it. Something about it... it seems familiar. Clearly it's some kind of magic, but he taps on it again. He remembers like a dream--"use this"--

And-- Something else...

Something strange...]


... Salvē? Quis tu... ? Non... non intellego...

Francis! [A huff, the sharp shutting of a door, and approaching footsteps distract him enough to--well, they startle him, and he grabs the communicator, shutting it off immediately.]

[ooc: Regular text is ... Gaul, green is Rosemary/England.

Just as a note, I don't know Latin whatsoever, so I apologize to anyone who does know it. For characters who ICly know Latin, I'll provide the rough translation of what he's saying:

"What is this?" "Whore (she-wolf). This is boring." "There is no smoke without fire."

"Hello?" "Who are you?" "I don't understand."

Basically he does have his memories from Discedo, but of course they're more like dreams to him. Don't know Latin? Feel free to text him, the magic device that can send words will be an endless curiosity and of course text always translates. Expect typos and odd swearing. For the characters who can speak Latin, I'm just going to conduct it as "Latin" in the comment title (unless it's action of course) so I don't have to write it out or drag a scholar to translate everything for me accurately. LOL

ACTION IN DISCEDO IS GO! He will be wandering around/outside this apartment complex with a few knives but he is for the most part a nice child...]

Francis... Oh my.... [Well, they knew this was a possibility... England crouches down to get a better look at him.]

Fr- Ah.... Celtcae? Gaul? I'm... Ego Rosemary. [Her common Latin is rusty but if she tries she can manage. Goodness, she barely remembers those days.]

[Oh, he's so adorable... He can just stay like this forever. The rest of this is in Latin so I can stop using caveman speak okay okay]

That's an impressive name. [She can remember it just a little- lots of shouting and being cold and fighting...] Little one, do you recognise me at all?

I know your face from a dream, Domina.

Am I dead?

[Pats his hair.] Shh, shh... Everything is okay, don't worry about them... You can't go home just yet, dear, you need to stay here with me for just a little while.

Why? I've been here for a long time! Rome will return and force me to live in his house and then I will never leave. I don't want to disappear.

...

Will you tell me the way home? ... I know the way, but I want to be certain it's right!

[In English:] It can't have been more than a few minutes, I only went to make a cup of tea- [Switches back to Latin;] Put that down!

Rome isn't here, Gaul, she- he can't get to you. You won't disappear.

No!

It doesn't matter if he isn't in this room!

... You know Rome?

Of course I do.

... [Sighs and puts her hand on his head.] Tell you what. If he does show up, I'll give him a good thumping. You're perfectly safe with me.

How do I know I can trust you? What if you drug me in my sleep and take me away?

... Yes! ... And no.



In the dream, you watched over me when I was injured. It was a good dream...

[WHAT DO YOU MEAN "YES"? France is getting hit when he grows up....

Yelling doesn't hurt. [Ooh, she should have thought this through before letting herself be talked into this, babies are her greatest weakness...

Rosemary wraps her arms tightly around Gallia again and strokes his hair.]
... Maybe. You'll understand when you're older.

[Kisses his forehead.] Of course you can, dear. [It's not like that's what she's been going for the whole time or anything....] I'll take good care of you, I promise.

I have Hispania and Britannia... and Germania when he visits!

Are you a state too, Domina?

hullonurse: (It's all about magic.)
From: [personal profile] hullonurse
Well, I'm glad you have the company. [JUST IGNORING THAT LAST QUESTION, YEAH.]

...

If you are not a state, you must promise you won't leave. Humans always stay in the same place. Do you promise?
