*various murmers and yawns are heard, the typical noises of someone waking up. While stretching an elbow pressed the voice transmitter button but she doesn't notice the blackberry*

Mmmmmm, Joan why didn't you wake me earlier? *silence for a moment* Joan I'm talking to you, aren't you listening *another pause then a huff is heard and then in a sharper tone* Joan, are you ever there? You'd better not be slacking about already you lazy thing.

*the sound of bed curtains being opened and someone stepping onto the floor can be heard* Where are you Joan, this is hardly proper for one of the Queens ladies to be slacking off. Lady Rochford's going to be very displeased *another pause, and then the voice sounds confused*

Where is everyone? *the sound of walking about the room, and the sounds of someone searching are heard, interspersed with the opening and closing of doors as she moves about her rooms* Joan....Mary......Jane......Elizabeth.................Lady Rochford? Where are all of you? I order you to come her right this minute. I'm your Queen, you'd best do as I say!

His Majesty is going to be very upset when he realizes you've left his wife all alone with no one to attend to her. I've not heard the tower is very comfortable, so I suggest you all quit whatever game this is and come out right now.

That is perfect! I play the lute very well, but I'd like to learn others too!

And to have a place to dance will be just wonderful!

[He smiles at that. He's quite skilled at the violin ~~like most creatures of hell~~, but boasting about it wouldn't be appropriate.]

I've no doubt you'll make good use of the space, your majesty.

I certainly intend to. If I'm going to be stuck her against my will I may as well amuse myself.

You'll have to show me it when you're unchained.

I would be honoured to, your highness.

*beams and sips some more tea*

Do you play anything yourself? *Normally she wouldn't be so interested in servants most likely, but she doesn't know people so she's making nice*

Oh, I've been known to pick up the violin from time to time, your highness.

[Totally downplaying the fact that he can play with seemingly inhuman skill...]

Really? *smiles* You shall have to play for me some time, I love to listen to music.

My husband composes songs himself you know, he's very good.

I would be honoured, your highness. [He bows his head and gives a polite smile.]

Oh? I did not know that. Perhaps he will have a chance to share his creations as well.

I'm glad. I'll miss all the lovely court musicians we had, so it will be good to hear someone play.

*looks down at her teacup at that* I wish he could, but he is not here. And I would not wish him to be subjected to this witchcraft for anything. England needs him there.

Ah, I see. My apologies for assuming. It does not seem right for a Queen to be without her King. [At least now he knows she's truly here alone. What a pity.]

It's...it's all right, you didn't know.

*staring rather intently at the teacup now* I wish he were here, I just...I don't feel safe without him here.

I do understand, but all the guests thus far are trustworthy. I am sure you will be well taken care of, your majesty.

It's not that I don't trust people here...well except for that one dreadfully rude boy...I just don't feel safe without him.

You'd have to meet him to understand I think. My Henry is someone you've got to see in person to truly appreciate.

Oh? [His eyebrow raises in interest.] And does this terribly rude boy have a name? [He already has a couple in mind...]

I do hope I will have that honour, although in circumstances better than this.

Yes! He was just awful! *she looks back up at him, clearly rather annoyed* I don't know his name, I only heard his voice over this..thing *she gestures to the blackberry sitting next to her* But he was exceedingly rude to me and had no respect at all. When Henry hears about this, he's going to be furious.

I hope so as well, I think you two would get along *smiles* He does like musicians, perhaps you could play a song of his!

Hmm. It's a shame we do not know his identity.

Ah, that is kind of you to say, but I am no musician. [He smiles.] I am just a butler to the core.
