[Sigh. You humans, making everything about hormones. ...sure it might not be originally a human thing at all, but he doesn't mind blaming humans for it anyway. He rubs his forehead, sort of staring off past the TC camera.]

That's the one with the eggs and the.. squiddy bits and so on, then, isn't it?

[......not that there are that many other festivals she might be talking about, he probably just wasn't really paying attention. That, or he's being difficult. The two cases can be hard to tell apart.]

[ She's pretty sure it's less about hormones and more about building a society with the bearing of kids. But tomato, potato. ]

Yes, the one with the eggs. And the bread contest.

Yes, yes, well, all right, should be a bit intresting, at least, haven't been king of anything before. ...well. Not officially.

[He smiles to himself at that and taps the side of his nose as though he'd imparted (or at least implied) some sort of secret.]

Don't imagine it can be much harder than football, and that was actually really quite easy, so, I'm supposed to do something, then, yeah? If there's dancing, I think I've got it pretty much in the bag.

[...for certain values of "dancing" anyway...]

I suppose you can dance, if you like. [ Oh god. ]

You have to a host a drinking contest of spiced drinks for the men. Then judge a bread baking contest.

Oh, and at some point there will be purple eggs thrown at you.

Well. That sounds... messy.

[He might be thinking of doing it all at once, he's a bit of a multitasker.]

Tradition, apparently.

I'm not exactly what you'd call traditional, as a rule, you know.

I have noticed this, yes.

Haha, good, well, do I get a hat or something, then?

Actually, there IS a crown.

Oh, a crown, sounds promising.

Well, we'll see.

Yes, good, doesn't sound at all ominous, answering like that.

Well. Chase wasn't fond of it, but you would I think have different tastes.

...I suppose that's a bit reassuring.

[It's true, his tastes and Chase's definitely aren't a great match.]

[ Here, she will forward a picture of the previously linked royal crown. ]

...oh. Euh... well, I've seen worse...

Is that right?

...twelve-hundred years across all of space and time, I'm pretty sure I've seen a worse hat, somewhere.

[...he might be hard pressed to tell you where exactly, but...]
