Canon is BBC's The Musketeers - Major Voicetesting

[firstminister]

My Dear Player,

I do believe it would be best for you to stop visiting that website. The authors there clearly have no understanding of French Government in the 17th Century nor my role within that structure. As such, it paints me in an entirely negative light without paying heed to the nuances that exist.

I am not a "villain". I simply want what is best for France and I have growing concerns that the King is taking too much advisement from the Musketeers rather than from me. After all, as First Minister, such matters fall under my jurisdiction and I have a better understanding of France's place within the political world than they do.

As to your concerns, I think it would be best if you simply left all worrying to me. Things in general tend to run more smoothly when I am in charge. If you fail to do so, please remember that I have ways to encourage your cooperation. I do not enjoy relying on such methods, however they do happen to be ever so useful.

Sincerely,

Cardinal Armand Richelieu

still working on some things, but might skim over games again?

I'm glad that you had a good birthday yesterday and I know you're upset about having to quit your job, but ... look at it as a new opportunity. You finished school, you are going to be moving in with a couple of friends, and they will introduce you to new friends.

As you complete one chapter of your life, you will begin a new one.

[He pauses, a hand lifting to his chin as he glances away. There might be a faint blush of embarrassment at what he's about to say.]

Just ... don't forget about us again.


I thoroughly enjoyed being brought back and I'm grateful that I am one of the muses you decided to keep.

Regarding canon updates and looking for a game.

I don't think it's a good idea.

If you're gonna force me, I wanna go some place where I'm not gonna be alone. I can handle it, sure, I can protect myself, that's not the issue.

I'd wanna know Dad was alright, Judith... Enid... Everyone.

All I'm askin' is that you at least think before sendin' me off some place. Think about what it'll be like for me... Would you wanna go there? Consider that before you send me off.

As for 'updatin' me' really, Are you kiddin'?

I mean, unless you're gonna change the whole medium you've mused me from... I think it's a stupid idea.

I'm...I'm sorry. I know it's sad, but you have to remember the good things. There were a lot of them, right? Many.

No, wait...

Countless.

But, you shouldn't blame yourself for anything that happened, okay? You didn't cause anything to happen. It just did. No one saw it coming. No one. Also... You shouldn't push yourself to do anything if you aren't ready for it.

("There's a lot of things you shouldn't do right now, but I have the feeling you're just going to do them anyway." She internally sighs. "In some ways, you are so much like him, mun. Some ways.")

Take your time. Let everyone know you need some time first, but take it one hour at a time if you have to... (A pause then a shake of the head.)

Don't worry about me. I'm...on my own again, but it is not like I can't take care of myself or anything. I could do it before everything, I can do it again. (A gentle smile.) I mean, it's not what I wanted, but...it's just how it went. I can't do anything about it now. I'll just go on my way - besides, I'm not good at the long term. I thought that was obvious.

Just take care of yourself. I am going to be honest here, you are awful at it.
