Yes, well, even loitering is a crime.

[Fortunately kings weren't subject to being arrested for loitering within their own kingdoms, otherwise Richard would have been arrested long before he was actually arrested.]

[politrick]

Only if they put up signs.

[He graciously does not give a double thumbs up, but the sentiment is somehow in his tone anyway. Gotcha!!]

[tummyflowers]

Ahh, see, that's the wonderful bit about being a king. You don't need to post signs.

[Why be a king if you can't be a tyrant about it, right?]

[politrick]

You're not king of anything here, lucky for me. I'm loitering so much under your very nose.

[tummyflowers]

Oh trust me, if I was king around here, I'd have thrown you in a cell for far less than loitering.

[Which... he's not sure if there is a lesser crime than loitering. But if there was, then Merlin would have definitely broken it.]

[politrick]

Oh, I know. I'm very lucky.

[And smug about it. Technically, it's not leave to do whatever he wants to push Richard's buttons without consequence, but he's gotten away with it so far...]

Maybe I should thank you for not having any kingly privilege around here. It's been helpful in not getting put in the stocks.

[tummyflowers]

You're... welcome?

[He doesn't get thanked nearly enough, so hey. He's gonna take it. If him not being king is doing some good, then maybe he'll keep doing this not being a king thing long term.]

In any case, I feel like we've learned a lot about one another. So I'm going to go off and do something important, while you can do... well, whatever it is that you do.
