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~]

I totally don't know about -chan, but yeah, like "Doctor"!

Yogi said you use "-chan" for girls or children!

Are there other titles for countries?

[identity profile] reckless-eagle.livejournal.com 2010-04-06 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, totally! Like... There are Empires, like Rome. Liet's a Grand Duchy. I think America calls himself the "United States" or something. It like, depends on what kind of government we have and how big we are and stuff!

Um um, I've heard "gov-ernm-ent" before, but I don't really get it... What is it?

[identity profile] reckless-eagle.livejournal.com 2010-04-06 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
It's like, the people who are in charge of a country!

[identity profile] beyourwarmth.livejournal.com 2010-04-06 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Different people in charge means different titles?

[identity profile] reckless-eagle.livejournal.com 2010-04-06 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh-huh! A kingdom is a nation whose ruler is called a "king". A duchy is one whose ruler is a "duke", and... I'm totally not sure what a united states has!

I wonder what gov-ern-ment my place had....

No clue. Like, where were you from?

[identity profile] reckless-eagle.livejournal.com 2010-04-07 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, like, no clue where those are. You live on a ship? That sounds pretty cool!

[identity profile] beyourwarmth.livejournal.com 2010-04-08 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yup! It goes to lots of places!

I don't know...I don't think I would get it if I asked too... But Gareki or Yogi might know though!

...They aren't here though... [ slightly sad face. he misses them ;o; ]

[ video ]

[identity profile] reckless-eagle.livejournal.com 2010-04-08 09:09 am (UTC)(link)
Huh... I should like, ask the other nations if they know about anything like that!

[Baww, sad!Nai :<]

[ video ]

[identity profile] beyourwarmth.livejournal.com 2010-04-08 09:42 am (UTC)(link)
Do you think they would know?

[ but but Gareki said boys don't cry so. ;o; I'll hold it in. And well maybe cry a tear or two in the corner. ]

[ video ]

[identity profile] reckless-eagle.livejournal.com 2010-04-08 09:47 am (UTC)(link)
Well, they like, know about a ton of stuff that doesn't exist in my time, so maybe!

[Poland agrees. Boys don't cry, they suck it up and are badass. The jury is still out on pink pumps and my little ponies, but we all know which way his decision's going to end up going on that one ;)]

[identity profile] beyourwarmth.livejournal.com 2010-04-08 09:56 am (UTC)(link)
You come from a different "time"?

[ obvs nai does not know what time is but anyway, we can suck it up together like true men Poland. ]

[ video ]

[identity profile] reckless-eagle.livejournal.com 2010-04-08 10:03 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods.] Yeah, a ton of them are from like... five or six hundred years later than me. It's mega weird, for real!

[Yessss. Poland and Nai are clearly the manliest men around |D]
