Historical Christmas Wishes
Trust Susan Higginbotham and Nan Hawthorne to come up with some fun. What some historical characters would like to find under the Christmas tree.
Varus: To just get OUTTA HERE. Arminius: Roman baths. Segestes: An obedient daughter. Caligula: Shiny new boots. Nero: An e-guitar. Agricola: Caledonia. Calgacus: More PS to my chariot. Maximinus Thrax: More wine. Honorius: Some sheets to hide under until the Visigoths are gone. Charlemagne: A new rearguard. Heinrich I: Fowling equipment. A crown would be nice, too. Heinrich IV: A pope's head or two in a vinegar jar. Heinrich the Lion of Saxony: My lands back. Friedrich Barbarossa: A life jacket. Eleanor of Aquitaine: Marriage counselling for my husband. It's not my fault. Henry II: Family therapy for my wife and sons. It's not my fault. Llywelyn Fawr. Glass windows for Criccieth Castle. Richard III: A horse. William Wallace: The director of Braveheart. Duke of Wellington: Night. Or the Prussians.
Here's the reason why Llywelyn wants new windows

I love it... imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.. the ones I laugh4ed most at were Eleanor and Henry II.
By the way, Charlemagne is contemporary to my fictional King Lawrence.

Thank you, Susan. Come think of it, Llywelyn needs a new roof, too. Damn expensive castle maintenance.
Shelley, I'm sure he'd love to show Mel Gibson the real Scotland, mwuahah. Happy Holidays to you as well.
Thank you, Nan. I keep filching Susan's fun memes, that's not the first one. :)
I have a plotbunny about Charlemagne in my files (or under the bed where I keep the buggers) as well. But first I'll have to finish the Romans and that Fantasy NiP.

LOL! This was great, Gabriele. It inspired me to do something similar with my own characters, when I get better
Roflol. Love 'em!
Agricola: Caledonia
With Ireland as a stocking-filler, maybe? :)
I'll add:
Caratacus: A home in the sun. Fed up roughing it in rainy Britain, anyway.
Boudicca: Catus Decianus' delicates in a jar.
Venutius: A good divorce lawyer.
Septimius Severus: Family therapy for the kids. Don't know where I went wrong with those two.
Caracalla: To be an only child.
Macbeth: William Shakespeare. By the throat.
Ghost of Aonghas Og: A new harpist.

Roflol Kirsten. Love the Venutius one, and Septimius should have a talk with Henry II. Being a father is so not easy. ;)
