My brother considers Americans to be far too audacious. I think he's still bitter over that bit of tea spilling back in the seventeen hundreds. It doesn't bother me, so much.

[ it probably helps that his lover is american. the first son, no less. but alex isn't sure he's ready to reveal that just yet. the same goes for revealing he's fourth in line for the british throne. he wants to know what this man thinks of him outside of titles and labels. ]

Something like that.

[ time for a subject change. it's smooth and without any kind of hint that he is uncomfortable talking about himself. (he very much is) ]

And what of you? Practiced at picking up strangers to tumble?
