Nineteenth Entry [Video]

[Poland, dressed in his 15th century Sunday best, is in a smallish room bedecked with candles and crosses. Today, it's also decorated with white cloth hangings and flowers everywhere. After all that Lenten fasting, it appears he was able to will his room to have a chapel attached!]

So, um. I know not everyone here is Christian, but... Today's a really important day for those of us who are, and I kinda wanted to share that with people. So like, I wanted to start the day with a reading from Matthew for everyone! And Liet and I have been making tons of sweets and pisanki for today, if anyone wants to come hang out and help us eat them...

But first things first~ [He crosses himself, then picks up a huge, leather-bound Bible with vellum pages, flipping it open to a page he'd marked and beginning to read aloud. His Latin accent is actually pretty good, because he's had a LOT of practice since his baptism over 400 years ago.]

A lesson from the Gospel of Matthew:

Vespere autem sabbati quae lucescit in primam sabbati venit Maria Magdalene et altera Maria videre sepulchrum
et ecce terraemotus factus est magnus angelus enim Domini descendit de caelo et accedens revolvit lapidem et sedebat super eum
erat autem aspectus eius sicut fulgur et vestimentum eius sicut nix
prae timore autem eius exterriti sunt custodes et facti sunt velut mortui
respondens autem angelus dixit mulieribus nolite timere vos scio enim quod Iesum qui crucifixus est quaeritis.

Non est hic surrexit enim sicut dixit venite videte locum ubi positus erat Dominus
et cito euntes dicite discipulis eius quia surrexit et ecce praecedit vos in Galilaeam ibi eum videbitis ecce praedixi vobis
et exierunt cito de monumento cum timore et magno gaudio currentes nuntiare discipulis eius
et ecce Iesus occurrit illis dicens havete illae autem accesserunt et tenuerunt pedes eius et adoraverunt eum
tunc ait illis Iesus nolite timere ite nuntiate fratribus meis ut eant in Galilaeam ibi me videbunt.

[He closes the Bible, and holds it up in front of him with a reverent little bow.]

The Gospel of the Lord. Thanks be to God!

[Setting the Bible aside, he gives the camera a happy smile.]

Alleluia, Christ is risen! Happy Easter, everyone ♥

[OOC: I'm... not Catholic, so there are more or less guaranteed to be little errors here. But I tried! And happy Easter to everyone from the mun, too, while I'm OOC note-ing~]

Uh-huh! You can like, help yourself to the other food, too, since we made a ton.

[The other food, laid out on the table, consists mostly of breads and cakes. They look delicious.]

[As for the room, it's pretty modest in size, and REALLY old-fashioned--stone walls and floor with wooden supports here and there, swords and armor hung up in a corner, tapestries and torches on the walls and rugs on the floor, one big bed with plenty of blankets and pillows that Poland STILL somehow steals all of. A few little tables and chairs, all pretty but obviously handcrafted, one of which is being used for the food. And a writing desk, naturally, with a small stack of parchment, an unlit candle, two seals, and... two communicators.]

[If Meriken thinks two dudes who say they're not involved sleeping in the same bed is weird, it's... kind of obvious, in here. There's nowhere but the one big bed to sleep.]

Alright!

[And she does help herself. Because sweets are awesome. None can stand up to American food, but they're allowed to come close, right? Well, sweets are good no matter what!

She glances around while eating cake before speaking, not caring that her mouth is full.]


Sfoo, 'ohr 'oom iff 'eally ff'ol faffuhn!

[What.]

[WHAT WAS THAT, MERIKEN? NOMFNOMFNOMF?]

[You think English is my first language but it's actually mouthfullanese idk. She swallows now.]

I said your room is really old fashioned!

[identity profile] reckless-eagle.livejournal.com 2010-04-04 09:51 pm (UTC)(link)
No, it's totally not! It's like, really stylish, it's just that we're from like 600 years before you, remember?

[identity profile] hellyesamerica.livejournal.com 2010-04-04 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, right! I guess that makes sense, then.

[And the slice of cake she had is already gone. Goooone.]

Anyway, I like it. It like, reminds me of h--

...Did you like, eat that whole piece already?

[MIND BOGGLES.]

[identity profile] hellyesamerica.livejournal.com 2010-04-04 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup!

[Signature thumbs up and smile.]

It was pretty good! Nice job!

[identity profile] reckless-eagle.livejournal.com 2010-04-04 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, duh, of course! My food is totally great~

[identity profile] hellyesamerica.livejournal.com 2010-04-04 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
It's good, but American food is better! You should try some sometime!

But for now, I have to go give out some more gifts..!

What, like those cheeseburger things?

[The ones he Polonized and made better? |D]

Okay! Like, have a good Easter~

[identity profile] hellyesamerica.livejournal.com 2010-04-04 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah! Cheeseburgers and other cool things!

I'll catch you later, Poland!

[identity profile] reckless-eagle.livejournal.com 2010-04-04 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
