Quelques Fleurs

Lacey: *cackling*

My word! *she says in a voice, that sounds weirdly similar to Princess Diana*

Lem: Lacey. You seem…important.

The CIA: This is her! With our genetics.

Chris Columbus: Except she’s actually even better looking. I’m sorry. *he says sincerely*

And Lacey is not Hispanic.

But…yes. There’s a striking resemblance.

This woman does look like Scotia though. And Lacey looks even more like Scotia than this woman. Although…this woman’s bone structure is strikingly similar.

A hater in the Illuminati: So she’s this defined but she’s just more soft and elegant, which is exactly what she’s been telling us…and I hate that…because I am a gay asshole half the time, so to speak, and it makes me feel pissed-off.

Chris: Yes.

I can see why she’s wearing Quelques Fleurs. But with this beauty, because this is basically her “if she had our genetics, so to speak”, I almost think… that if she had lighter coloring… Chanel 22 was actually more appropriate.

*she winces*

And Lacey does have lighter coloring, and is from that generation.

They really fucked-up!

And they’re going to have to deal with that.

And it’s not my fault, it’s not a lot of other people‘s fault. It’s their fault.

But this is the woman that Mark “was fucking” and then settled down with and married. That’s how his friends see it. She really was this hot in this almost exact way. It doesn’t get captured on camera ever. And that’s extremely disturbing but there’s nothing that can be done about it now.

She is a rare beauty. This woman is actually a rare beauty too, if we’re being honest, and that’s nice that at least this woman is being photographed in an honest way, but Lacey should’ve been able to be photographed too. There’s something really creepy about the fact that it never worked.

No, this woman is being allowed to exist in our current realm on camera. And that’s good because this is documented evidence of what Lacey looked like about 20 years ago. I’m not saying that this woman isn’t important in her own right, I’m just saying it’s very nice for us because she’s famous. I’m sure she’s been photographed often because she’s a model. 

And yes, we do have to add the caveat that Lacey‘s genetics belong to the Greatest Generation. But if you want to know what she really looks like, this woman is fairly good representation.

Lacey gained weight. She had two children. Who knows what this woman will look like in 20 years. What if she actually looks something like Lacey? I bet you she does and then we could see what Lacey looks like now, but we need to just leave this woman alone.

No, Lacey was incredibly beautiful and there’s a few photos that sort of capture this almost, but barely.

Was I a Jew? *he laughs*

There are content creators on TikTok right now who are claiming that I was a Jew? I was not.

I was not Jewish. I’m sorry.

Was I financed by the Jews? No.

*he laughs*

Think bigger picture.

People want to blame the Jews or the Germans or the Brits. It’s something bigger than that. And you could just call it evil. But I would guess you could go a little less big picture than just that. Some people want to call it capitalism? No. It’s more a desire to dominate.

It’s more of an innate human desire to dominate.

And that natural human instinct can be actually really good thing in many different ways. Whether you’re on the football field or in a lab or in love. But it can be very evil as well. And a lot of people don’t understand that anymore. I was Spanish, and my people had an innate desire to dominate the world. Read about the conquistadors. They were not Jews. And they were violent and terrifying. But you see the British being violent and terrifying, you see Germans being violent and terrifying, you see Japanese being violent and terrifying. It’s in our minds as humans, to dominate.

Casi: I’m making a fool of myself. I actually can see where that’s what the camera was almost picking-up.

Lacey, I brag about my understanding of photography. And so when I thought I could imitate you, you knew that was totally idiotic because we look very different. And you thought, “If you’re such a genius with photography, how the hell do you not understand how different we actually look?”.

Okay.

You are a lot better looking than me and yes if I’m being this-if I’m being honest, this woman is like extremely beautiful. Actually I would even say that this model is probably a rare beauty because you can’t imitate that. This woman really is like, out of this world. 

Honestly, this, as an Aries, gives me respect for Lem. Another Aries. Because no. This is-This is hot shit. Ma bro is doing well.

OK but just because I’m not Lem’s friend on an island location-

*she laughs*

I’m not trying to be mean, but I think you and this woman are trying to figure out your proportions. This looks good on her, but I almost think it’s too big. I mean it looks good but I bet she’s actually more petite-

And I wish some guy would tell her, “You don’t need to be that big. I swear you probably looked fine before.”. But it’s her body. It does look hot as hell. I’m not gonna lie, and I’m probably just being jealous. It’s just I don’t think she needed to go that big. I don’t think it’s right, because she really is extremely beautiful and it’s just sort of detracting from her perfection. 

But that’s just me being nitpicky. The woman is like extraordinary. It just makes me angry when people start tweaking with mother nature and yes, I know I’m imitating Lacey in saying something like that, but that’s how crazy I am.

Do I actually think that? I don’t even know anymore because I’ve become so committed to this act. Maybe I do? I think I’m determined to really make this work…

*she looks scared*

It really is true though, because I think I look better than I realized too.

So…-

I just want to make one thing clear. I did not understand how different we actually are. I saw some similarity and then I thought it was bigger than it actually is. And I’m a little angry because I’m wondering what that is in her photographs. I believe that there is something like this going on because her photographs never makes sense. It’s weird how different one picture looks from another. There’s not a normal congruity between each photo of her. And the video of her looks vastly different. And it looks like parts of her face or disappearing and then, all of a sudden, it’s there again. I know that that’s not happening in real life. She’s not a shape-shifter. 

I think there’s something demonic. And I don’t think it’s her fault. And honestly, I think it tricked me into feeling safe and making a fool of myself. I knew she was a lot better-looking than me, but it’s very like- Let’s just say I assumed that I was safer than I was doing what I did. 

An ancient Irish King: She never did her hair and makeup to look this good. But that’s not because she’s a lesbian. It’s for other reasons that people don’t want to hear because it’s embarrassing to them, not her. 

Why did this happen? If there’s reincarnation, it was actually Jack Kennedy‘s fault, I’m sorry. And that’s why, about two years ago, we told you to figure that out theologically. I understand that there was a Hasidic Jew who talked to Lacey and that’s very helpful but reincarnation only became a Hasidic concept in the 1300s?

You’ve got to try harder than that. There is a nuclear war on the horizon. Not 100 years from now, within the next six years or earlier. 

Because of what the Illuminati did to Lacey 10 years ago, and what they continue to do with their witchcraft, and because of children being sold into Hell… there will most likely be nuclear war.

For all you know, you pissed-off Moloch when you tried offering him abuse, as a sacrifice.

Jack did something very evil and I’m going to explain it, but we need to put a warning on the following information because it actually really is going to get graphic because we have to be graphic.

*The following is rated R*

An Ancient Irish King: Lacey and her husband, Lem, literally or symbolically if there’s not reincarnation…made love.

Lem wasn’t gay. He was straight.

And, should there be reincarnation, they had sex. They had passionate…heterosexual…sex.

They made love many times. Over…and over again. They were deeply in love.

And I was happy for them. …Should there be reincarnation. …It pleased me. *he laughs and smiles*

I guess I have what you would call “a tender heart”.

Listen to “Gimme Shelter” by The Rolling Stones.

He loved her.

They were incredibly happy.

I was at peace.

2:22

2:49

3:08

Her baby died. I tried to prevent it, but I couldn’t.

3:44

3:52

Joe…was…nuts.

The song ends.

Long story short: Lem couldn’t make Lacey orgasm…in the exact right way.

Her parents had died. They had had a miscarriage. …And he couldn’t get her head in the right frame of mind, to make her…fully his. There was something spiritual about what he wanted. Some…eternal union. With just her. …But he couldn’t quite…grasp hold of it.

Yes, making love, is that deep.

They made love. Many times.

But…he had absolute perfection in mind. Complete union. Not just marriage on Earth.

He was a wise man. Because there’s nothing wrong with what he wanted. All men should want that.

The problem arose…with her trauma. And he couldn’t…understand. And it hurt him. He loved her deeply. He was determined. But…it hurt, because he assumed she may have some reticence about him. Some lack of interest. …Still, he determined to never let her go.

Enter Jack Kennedy. As the ghost of a Japanese man, from the 1700’s. Son of a whore, who serviced Emperor Ninko.

Emperor Ninko

Listen to “Sympathy For The Devil” by The Rolling Stones.

Jack was sent to Great Britain, by Ninko, to find a way to destroy the British Empire. Ninko was…very resentful of British domination. And he felt his people deserved supernatural justice. And so…in the realm of the dead…or perhaps Purgatory…because God is merciful…Ninko plotted. And he designated Jack…then called by another name, to be the emissary from his Japanese empire.

0:60

Jack…found what Charismatic Christians would call “an inroad” spiritually, to attack Lacey and Lem. In their own home. Via…stolen Japanese art. They had…beautiful porcelain Japanese artifacts. On display.

1:20

And…using that evil…he watched them have sex. For his own pathetic reasons.

2:11

She couldn’t orgasm the way Lem wanted her to. …And Jack saw that. Saw them talking about it. And…surmised…that…he should become her. …Make Lem his own. Obliterate her soul. And…-

Well.

He was operating in a spirit of poverty, injustice, cruelty, hatred, and immense covetousness and jealousy. Greed. …So it’s unclear if he thought he was still doing Ninko’s bidding or not, but he was never taken out of that contract with Ninko.

I don’t think singling out Lacey and Lem, in any way, was ever going to “take down the British Empire”. But he lost track of…good sense and reason. Off on a lark, for personal reasons. Maybe some childhood trauma, similar to “Don Draper” from Mad Men?

At any rate, he was determined to make Lem gay. And to obliterate Lacey’s soul. All out of jealousy. First jealousy of Lem, actually. Then a transfer of that jealousy and hatred to Lacey, because she seemed more vulnerable.

The song ends.

Listen to “Under My Thumb” by The Rolling Stones.

Jack reasoned that…if Lacey was too cold and…cruel…to let herself orgasm…that he could and should do better.

No. Jack was not sexually experienced at this point. He was just the son of a Japanese whore. …He had many ignorant ideas and opinions about sex.

0:60

He felt…mighty.

1:06

And so…when Lacey…was healed of her trauma in Heaven…from that life…and her and Lem had what they wanted…Jack would have been proven wrong, of course. When she no longer feared that Lem would die…like her parents… She was genuinely too afraid to get that attached to him…because…if he died…then she believed she’d die too. Somehow. And that’s not stupid nor crazy. And what if she had kids who she needed to keep surviving for? No…her mind wouldn’t let her. She had no conscious control over it at all.

Jack, assuming she did have control, was his arrogance and what you’d call narcissistic projection of his own evil on to her. Possibly his mother did. But Lacey wasn’t a cruel prostitute. She was an orphan.

Of course the song is over, listen to “Sympathy For The Devil (Neptunes Radio Edit)”.

Jack…believed…he knew.

*I laugh*

He was a “know-it-all”. Jack was a huge “know-it-all”.

And…he was determined…to…shine.

He made “the Japanese experiment”…entirely about him.

2:53

*I laugh*

This edit is accidentally funny-

*I laugh*

You can never be someone else.

…Still, Ninko tried to support Jack. For many reasons. …And if there’s reincarnation, he came back as Red Fay.

Red Fay
Emperor Ninko

…I think Red fell in love with Jack, as it is…because he saw Jack’s mother in him.

…Now, what was the iceberg? If America is the Titanic? …What’s the iceberg? …Lem.

Listen to “Distant Memories” by James Horner, from the motion picture Titanic.

Lem…loved his wife.

He was a good man.

But he wasn’t a man to be trifled with. Jack completely misunderstood him.

I’m sorry.

Lacey and Lem didn’t need…poverty…to realize how profoundly fortunate they are to have each other. They were deeply in love.

…Jack was wrong.

Song ends. Listen to “The Sinking”.

Lem…aided in the assassination of JFK.

Why? Ha! …He’s…ice cold, in 1962.

2:50

*I struggle, Lacey advises me*

The song plays. The song ends.

I’ll be back later.

Listen to “Shoo-Fly Pie and Apple-Pan Dowdy” as performed by Dinah Shore.

Lacey: Lem…could have married.

There were many pretty ladies who he liked. But…he was holy. He was determined to be…something great.

And I love that about him.

But…he’s human.

Where other men might have “accidentally” had sex with some…”loose woman”…he refused. And to his credit, in almost every way. Possibly in every way. …The only problem is that…he cracked.

And by 1962…he wanted to KILL Jack. …He wanted Jack…dead as a doornail.

He couldn’t…melt.

He was…a huge iceberg.

*she smiles, with love for Lem*

He wanted Jack dead. …He couldn’t just remove himself. …He didn’t have it in him to be able to do that anymore. …He just wanted to clobber him.

The song ends.

Lacey: Food. Is innocent. …And so…that song makes sense, to me. …She may be a lesbian. But…she may also just be singing about FOOD. …Why not!??

And…she’s also singing about…life. And…going on dates with men. Where you literally eat. …And the suggestion is…what happens after dinner.

It’s like…”I’m just singing about my mother and pie!” It’s innocent! “I JUST LOVE PIE!” …But…not really. …And as she keeps singing…you realize she’s still singing about pie, literally, but her mind has totally drifted to thoughts of the sex…after dinner.

The Greatest Generation has and had sense of humor about itself.

…Oh, and I should add, adults were still trying to seem sexually more pure back then. Sex was for marriage. So…she’s being cagey.

Dinah Shore: Yes. That’s exactly right.

A Boomer: Green onions!? That’s why it was risqué. They’d been hiding their promiscuous sex in food…so we did it too. For a moment.

Listen to “String Quartet No. 3 (“Mishima”)” by Philip Glass.

An Ancient Irish King: We have…an iceberg.

A man.

And yes, he could have done better. If that’s even possible. …Maybe it’s not. No, maybe it’s not. Don’t assume.

…Regardless, he shot JFK. In his own heart. On what would become Lacey’s birthday. Shot him in the head, on television.

And so…a nation watched…as the ruler of the Holy Roman Empire…assassinated…a weak, pathetic, fool US President. A closeted homophobe, named JFK.

The Kennedys have a habit of crashing their boats into other craft, in harbors. And they act so…indifferent.

In my opinion, the iceberg was…Lem. And…America has never been the same since.

And that’s true, regardless of reincarnation.

Blame the Holy Roman Empire for Lem’s coldness. It was brutal.

Listen to “Water Music Suite No. 3 in G Major, IXX. Menuet” by Handel. As performed by the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Eduard Van Beinum conducting.

An Ancient Irish King: He’s not a mean man.

He’s…loving.

But…he could…be…brutal. …Under the right circumstances.

He murdered his wife. For holy reasons. And…he actually did kill some people to convert them or to convert their families, to Christianity.

Those were very different times.

He assassinated JFK, one way or another.

Listen to “Time of Assassins” by Charlotte Gainsbourg.

Imagine Lem instead of Duck Philips, sitting in a hotel room, watching the assassination. Somewhere in Texas.

He nervously pushes his glasses up his nose. Buff, if too skinny or too fat.

Sitting on the edge of the bed. Staring at the television. Like he’s watching a football game.

He bites down…hard. Almost snarls. Face red.

His breathing…quickening.

Finally…that COCK?…DIES. …No more oral sex demands from JFK.

Lem looks…shockingly cold.

His breaking slows.

He almost looks tired. He almost looks ready for…sleep. He looks…calm.

He’s relieved.

And then he looks up at a clock. On the wall. And reminds himself that he’s gay. He’s still…damned. …He cries, as he flings himself on his back. In absolute misery.

…And in a few moments…he’s off to the hospital, where Jackie…will be sitting. Waiting to hear that her husband has survived.

He laughs at Jackie. Sometimes she was incredibly cruel, to women.

Lem: If I know anything about Jack, as long as I’ve known him, he’s too stubborn to die. …He’s not going anywhere!

That’s about what I said.

Jackie: Oh Lem! *in tears*

Lem: And then he died.

And I acted shocked. Right on cue. And made it as convincing as I could make it look.

People believed me. I’m a good actor.

Listen to “Trick Pony” by Charlotte Gainsbourg.

A Millennial man: Is that why you…acted like you’d been struck by lightning?

Lem: Yes.

I was instructed to look shocked.

1:15

A Millennial man: You are a good actor.

What did you do to seem convincing?

Lem: I wore clothes that seemed…pathetic. I chose something that would make me look…incredibly sad. …You know? …Wrinkled.

I did dress badly sometimes. I am and was straight. But…I really tried to look pathetic.

I also…practiced my facial expressions in a mirror. For hours. For months. Thinking through every single possible scenario.

…I didn’t sleep well. Purposefully. Shaved badly.

I didn’t have any coffee that morning.

And…I focused my thoughts all morning on things that made me feel genuinely, incredibly sad.

Listen to “Unchained Melody” as performed by Elvis.

The song plays and the song ends.

Listen to “Unchained Melody” as performed by The Righteous Brothers.

An Ancient Irish King: Lem…died. Miserable and alone. In 1981.

Happy to die.

But the repercussions of his actions…-

2:09

We’ve never been the same.

2:30

That was…the moment. In my opinion. That was the moment.

The song ends.

Listen to “One Week” by Barenaked Ladies.

An ancient Irish King: If…there’s a nuclear war…you’ll likely die.

I am dead.

It’s not the worst case scenario.

1:31

China: We are not chicken.

An ancient Irish King: *laughs, jovially*

Okay.

Like my art? *he laughs*

That’s JFK…

He’s got the scissors, to cut up…”twin flames”.

And he tends, to get himself in trouble. *he laughs*

Jonah: So…-

Where are we now!?

An ancient Irish King: Well…Ihan Omar was raided yesterday.

*he lets out a deep sigh of sadness*

I’m not taking a side.

But that was…-

*he looks too upset to not take “a breather”*

*after calming himself*

That was…a horrible thing.

*he thinks*

You can’t do that! Even if it needs to be done. But it was done.

That’s evidence to me, that the ship is taking on water. Metaphorically speaking.

Listen to “Heartaches” by Al Bowlly.

Putin: *laughs, popping expensive champagne*

I’m not…worried.

*he takes a sip*

Yes, it’s very good. *he says to someone*

An ancient Irish King: There are lifeboats.

Lacey…is currently walking on water, with her kids and husband. Don’t get too prideful, if you’re a woman. We are all just human.

Elliott Roosevelt claims…another ship is en route. He’s a good man too. *he smiles fondly* I’m not sure if it will replace the Titanic? I’m not sure what the plan is. …But he has some idea.

…And other people plan to just float. And wait. Like Jack and Rose.

9/11 was a warning. I don’t know why people missed that…

An Irish woman: What did the Kennedys do?

An Ancient Irish King: I’ve told you enough.

But…-

Essentially, Joe Kennedy Junior was holding together the entire thing. By…miraculous grace. …And all he needed to do was make a sacrifice, of ego, if nothing else.

He just…needed…to let it go.

Apparently, because the Kennedys thought Lem was gay, when the boys took their shirts off…they didn’t even notice that Lem was much better built. As a man. …And Lem had glasses.

…After this whole thing…died…in 1981…they all suddenly were confronted with that cold reality. …Lem had been more manly the whole time. …And all the cruel jokes they made at his expense, to feel…grand and victorious over others…were actually jokes about them.

They used to make fun of his height. Often. …Not because they were…feeling ultimately inferior. No. Because they were arrogant and cruel, and actually enjoyed being mean.

…When they were all dead they had to face the truth. Lem was…better-looking. …That family was obsessed with looks, and competing over looks.

…Joe couldn’t handle it. So he…just kept digging himself in deeper.

All he needed to do…was hold off. And be nice. For…six more decades at most. Lacey was 30 when this came to a head.

But he just couldn’t.

And no, he wasn’t that mad about Jack. He was angry at Jack, rightfully.

It was personal pride. Personal…anger.

And Pat Wilson was…both very evil…and…surprisingly somewhat good.

So he dropped the ball.

He could have waited until she died…and then tried to rip Lem’s head off. …Literally. *he laughs* …I don’t think it would have happened. But…it would have been satisfying. He’d have felt…better, as a man, for just trying. …But he just couldn’t do it. He had to have his cake and eat it too.

*later*

Bobby: So Lacey is a bitch nigger?

Huh?

She walks on water! Just like a perfect little nigger.

*he laughs*

An Italian Witch

Bobby: She cut a piece of fabric and used voodoo. She made it symbolic…of time and space.

And then…she took “me” energetically, combined with “Chris” energetically and added us to her “potion”. In 2020.

It was…from years of experience with witchcraft in the Illuminati. …She had years of experience doing spell-work. …She was in her 90’s. She died three years ago, of old age. …It was risky work, but she knew she was going to die.

So that’s why Maeve died.

*chatter*

Yes! That IS why Jack lost the election!

*chatter*

I don’t know. …I guess it killed Tatiana?

Lacey: Lem’s voice has been very hard to hear. It’s been weird.

Bobby: *laughs*

Yup.

Well…that’s the Illuminati.

*he laughs*

*smiles*

Ain’t NUTTIN’ I can do about it.

A confused gay man: So…all she’s experiencing is loss of contact. Like…an interruption in her cell phone coverage. …And your family is cursed. …WHY would that be worth it?

Bobby: Lem was gay.

*he shrugs*

We’re protecting him.

Caroline: *nods*

But I’m starting to think this is bad.

Bobby: Well…-

*he shrugs*

I mean…-

*he laughs*

The Trumps: *hold pens and paper, considering bulldozing the Kennedy Center*

Listen to “Proven Lands” by Jonny Greenwood.

A farmer: *slaughters a pig*

Lacey: *cuts pieces of bacon into her potato soup, with a sharp knife*

An ancient Irish King, seeing Scotia: *Feels terrified. Finds her attractive. Decides that the group of invading Egyptians should be friends.*

Hello!!! *He says, in his own language. Waving, cheerfully. Huge grin.*

And that’s when he married Scotia and made an alliance with her. Except, it wasn’t ever consummated. It was always just a “pretty idea”. He was actually very intellectual. And he recognized their superior technology (knives he’d never seen before, etc.). And…he genuinely thought she was hot. …So, he felt he should take her as a wife. Get the clout. …And then…protect the colony of Egyptians, in what became Scotland.

She never fought with Ireland. She also never married anyone there, in Ireland, and consummated it. If there’s reincarnation. …It was an ancient conception of marriage.

Yes, the Ancient Egyptians and the Ancient Irish did intermarry. And have children. In this…adventure. But Lacey never did.

And actually, most of the Ancient Egyptians just stuck together. In what became Scotland.

The Trumps are Scottish.

Listen to “There, There (live)” by Radiohead.

An Irish witch: I don’t believe they meant any harm. I think…Joe Kennedy Junior made…a…horrific mistake.

The song plays.

An Ancient Irish King: If there’s reincarnation, she did marry me. Yes.

*he smiles*

I’m still very fond of her.

*he thinks*

She’s not a bad person. And neither am I.

We never laid together. …It was…a lovely thought. *he smiles*

I had a few wives already.

*he thinks*

But I did take it quite seriously. I cared about her.

Did she die in Ireland? Fighting? No. …She died of a lung infection. In Scotland. On a hill, at sunrise.

She was in her 30’s.

*he thinks*

She was very tired. And she had…contracted some lung ailment in Europe. A month earlier. …Gorgeous woman anyway.

I made up the story…and it was repeated. Because it was a much better end. *he smiles* she deserved respect. Not to be seen as…a tragic, unloved woman. …She was so pretty. *he smiles, fondly*

*later*

Scott Fitzgerald: You’re cool. *he says to the Ancient Irish King*

Listen to “The Suburbs” by Arcade Fire.

Scott Fitzgerald: I could have married her, too. …Am I anything like you?

An ancient Irish King: *eyes Scott*

Yes.

*he smiles, proudly*

*looks quite serious*

I’m shorter. *He laughs. Jolly, muscular, a bit heavy…and notorious for victory.*

But our coloring is actually similar. *he smiles*

A 2026 reader: Why don’t you have sex with her?

Lacey: Why don’t you want to talk about his glory!? *she asks quizzically*

Why don’t you want to talk about his victories in battle?

An Ancient Irish King: Because it was the wrong thing to do.

…I had wives.

I was madly in love with them. One in particular. She had most of my children.

*he smiles*

I was a proud, noble, happy man.

*he smiles*

Scotia was…a darling girl. Absolutely lovely. *he looks sad, and yet fond*

I wanted her to be safe. She had traveled a long distance. They all had. …And, she was the daughter of a pharaoh. …Her father was the pharaoh of Egypt. …He was an Egyptian pharaoh. …HER FATHER WAS AN EGYPTIAN PHARAOH.

*he thinks*

*he waits*

I was offering her safety, harmony and protection. And she gave me clout.

Make sense?

The reader from 2026: Did she really look this hot?

An Ancient Egyptian King: Do I look like that? No. We looked different.

Was she hot, by our standards? …Yes.

She looked like this, somewhat. …They assumed Nefertiti was her mother. And Nefertiti was a known beauty. So…if you add it all up, you can surmise that she was very beautiful.

A reader from 2026: So your wife was never worried you were going to cheat?

An Ancient Irish King: *thinks*

Probably not!

Probably not.

*he smiles*

We were very in love.

But in order to look…strong and glorious, I married her. And it worked. …She was…- *he hesitates* seen as my property. Okay? And yet, it didn’t disparage her. …But, no, I didn’t need to cheat. The marriage was good enough.

I barely ever saw her. We had a ceremony where she agreed to be my wife. And then…that was it. I went back to Ireland and she went further north.

We married…just north of London.

Lacey: Where did I die, in this…mythology?

An ancient Irish King: You died in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. Or close to it. Overlooking the sea.

I called it Scotland.

Lacey: *Looks at a photo of The Cheviots.*

That looks about right! That’s what I keep seeing.

God: So if there’s reincarnation, the real Scotia, who is not just a myth…is or was…resting in the hills of Northern England.

Lacey: I died. I died on a very similar hill. At sunrise. I just laid back, and died.

God: If there’s reincarnation? Yes. It’s that simple.

Jonah: That’s depressing.

An ancient Irish King: Exactly!

Bobby: Don’t make assumptions. About my family. Okay?

Jonah: I’m not doing that.

Bobby: *looks grumpy*

We’re doing our best.

A reader from 2026: Was any Irishman supposed to…marry her? Ever?

An ancient Irishman: NO! Of course not.

*he waits*

Look, if there’s reincarnation, Lem was allowed to take off with her…because my chief approved of it.

He vetted Lem. Thoroughly. For many reasons.

But…she couldn’t marry just anyone.

You know?

The King had to approve. Our chief…felt responsible for her…and it was a matter of national security for him and our people.

He was and is, a very wise man.

Bobby: What did we do?

Jonah: Well it ain’t good! *he smirks*
