his expression visibly lighting up at the sight of his sister, adrian let out a sincere laugh ( which wasn’t a very common occurrence ) , shaking his head. ‘ i know you would. but if i left, with whom could you trash talk about the brits ? ’ he nudged her gently, a grin on his face before he looked back at the palace, cringing his face. ‘ boston tea party, forever thankful. ’ he shook his head. ‘ this is gonna be a nightmare. ’
“yeah. it’s weird to imagine that these people ruled the world at one point, isn’t it? like they owned fucking everybody, what 90% of the world was ruled by this tiny little island at its peak? thats fucked up.” she observed leaning back and staring at the ugly palace. she would take her home at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue any day over it. “it really is, and it’s only just begun. what does your mom think about you being away from the states for so long?”
‘ so, what, is this gonna be what our lives are all about for however long it takes to get done with the shenanigans ? bumping into someone wherever you walk, stuck in this old, gloomy, boring place – ’ he huffed out, sitting up properly on the grass as he looked over the building before him. ‘ bullshit. ’
“you’re welcome to go hide somewhere else if you want, i’ll cover for you.” angie promised as she came and sat next to him, looking up at the palace just as her brother was. “i think i’m starting to get why exactly we demanded independence from these people, they’re boring and wound up as fuck. i don’t think i can survive all the talk about tea...” she dramatically gestured vomiting at the prospect.

tw: death
Angelina Kathleen Kennedy didn’t have the best start in life
Her father was already married to a princess from another country, when he started an affair with Angelina’s mother who was your average upper east side socialite. The king was a famous philanderer, so the affair came to no one’s surprise. What did surprise the world, was when he married a woman of relatively low social standing, divorcing his wife of 15 years and the mother of his 7 year old daughter
See, Mira Kennedy, Angelina’s mom, was a highly ambitious woman. She sought to make herself royalty. She had seduced and manipulated the king into marriage, after she revealed to him that she was pregnant with his child.
(( angelina’s mom was actually also seeing another man when she first started seeing the king of usa. when she became pregnant, she didn’t know whose child it was, but she decided to tell the king it was his, so she could be queen. ang is actually not the king’s daughter, but neither she nor anyone else realises, her mother suspects but she never has nor ever will try to get to know the truth. ))
Mira was demonised by the press, labeled a gold digger, but she didn’t care one bit. She had achieved her objective, a better life for her and her newborn daughter.
But this dream didn’t last long. Mira had been willing to ignore the king’s wandering eye, ignore all his affairs as long as he remained married to her. But the king would soon find another mistress and leave the queen for wife no. 3.
Being snubbed like this infuriated Mira and she felt insulted. to regain her lost prestige and position, she set about aiming to turn her daughter into the next queen of the United States
Angelina had the strictest of upbringings, with her mother wanting her to accomplish in every field.
She grew extremely clever, to the point of cunning. Ambitious as all hell, and power-hungry due to her mother’s quest for power.
But there’s more to it than what meets the eye. Angelina doesn’t want the throne to fill her mother’s desire for revenge but because she honestly believes the king to be incompetent and weak.
3 years ago, her elder half sister and heir to the throne, Arabella, died in a mysterious car crash. Angelina soon found out that this had been her mother’s doing, to put her on the throne.
She considered herself partially responsible for the death. She hadn’t wanted Arabella to die, she had always wanted to beat her using methods less violent. This made her sick to her stomach, and got her questioning her purpose.
But her mother didn’t allow her a moment’s rest. The next step according to her mother was Angelina usurping the throne from her father instead of waiting for him to die.
Angelina has tried her best to put her sister’s death out of her mind, and focus on the summit and the coup she’s planning.
She’s incredibly clever, but she doesn’t like to come off as a know-it-all.
The media likes to say she has a mysterious air to her and Angelina would agree
She usually comes off as incredibly charming & outgoing, loves to surround herself with people but only very few can really say they’re friends with her
He paused, this had all come out much quicker than he had expected. He had intended to use this date to give her a chance to escape their engagement, to realize that he wouldn’t force her into anything she did not want. Instead, he was on the edge of telling her everything he had been working on this past year. Why? Was he trying to impress her, to show off the new, great man he was yet to become? He cleared his throat, motioning for the waitress to come over, he was going to need a drink before they continued.
“I don’t party anymore, at least not really, never so much that I can’t work the next morning, I’ve been studying, reading a lot of material, political material.” He paused, unsure how to continue, “Materials that question the very basis of our political system, the ability of royalty to do good. I want… I want to leave a positive mark on the world, to be remembered not for wasting my wealth, but for doing something to make the world a better place.” He cut himself off, not wanting to continue until he saw something from her, he wasn’t sure what he was hoping for exactly, approval perhaps? Something to give him the confidence to continue.
Ang hid the shock that she felt as she heard him tell her about his views on monarchy. she was certain that what he was saying was borderline treasonous, in any country and definitely in her own. democracy wasn’t an idea that was talked about so casually where they were coming from. but she hid all of that, and instead leaned forward with fascination in her eyes. she had to admit, now her curiosity was peaked. though no part of her actually believed that some ex-playboy prince could pull off a goddamn revolution. “and you believe that the world will be be a better place if we went back to democracy? last time we tried that we went to war. thrice.”
she was personally on the fence about democracy. on one hand, it would be the system of monarchy that would be the basis for her rule, but on the other that same system would have placed her sister on the throne and had placed her father. both absolutely incompetent. “don’t tell me you have a revolution in the works now.” her tone was still light, and she made sure to keep up the illusion that she wasn’t hostile to the idea at all. “i suppose if you’re against everything the system stands for, you’re against this marriage as well.”
Who was he? It was an impossible question to answer, “I wish you asked me who I wasn’t, I might actually be able to answer that for you.” What would he tell her? That since arriving at the summit he had been trying and failing to sabotage it, to make the other royals realize how broken their system was. “I suppose recently I realized just how unfit I was to lead my country, let alone someone else’s in my youth. And there was no one to stop me. I couldn’t let that be the case anymore.”
“Really princes, this is your A-game? Something tells me I haven’t seen half of what you can do yet.” He was flirting with her, but he couldn’t help it, he was still the man who had hopped from country to country, partying in every major city, he liked beautiful interesting people, he liked enjoying himself. “I know any woman who can hold her own against your father is much more than simply an enjoyable date. I know if I want your a-game I will have to work harder!” He laughed, settling back in his seat across from her, “Don’t be glad yet, I may turn out to be a complete disappointment,” He was joking, but there was truth in his words, he had a habit of disappointing, he had become used to it, comfortable in his place as a disappointment.
“okay...who aren’t you?” she asked, deciding to humour him. she wasn’t expecting some deep inside into a man’s dark imaginings or past, but instead some pretentious rant about being a changed man. she was surprised when he admitted to considering himself unfit to rule. looks like controlling the Netherlands unilaterally isn’t going to be so much of a challenge, she thought. his last sentence gave her pause. “what....what do you mean by you won’t ‘let that be the case’ anymore?” was he saying what she thought he was saying?
she smirked in response to his flirtatious comment. “maybe.” she coyly replied. “believe me, if i’m bringing my A-game, that usually means you should run the other way.” she only needed to bring her A-game when she had an ulterior motive in mind. and not usually a good one for the person sitting across from her. “it’s when i’m not trying to impress, that you’ll know i trust you.” she shrugged. she laughed at his self-deprecating joke. oh i’m expecting that alright, she thought. “well, so far, you’ve been anything but. relax, give yourself some credit.”
