[Charles pulls his jacket off and bundles it up with the intention of giving it to France to help to keep him warm.]

Excuse me sir!

[He curses under his breath quietly and tries to remember his French, he's incredibly rusty. So his next words are halting as he searches for the correct translation.]

This isn't a joke. Just please calm yourself and put this on, it'll help keep you warm at least.

[ooc: If you don't mind, could you quickly fill this out for me?]

[ ooc; 8) done!

The.. obviously rusty French gets his attention, and France visibly grimaces. He was sort of particular with who and what spoke his language, but in the long run, he preferred to speak in it than English... unless the other speaker was just intolerable. He'll say nothing for now, but don't mind him if he fusses about it later.

Before Charles can even hand over his jacket, France is reaching over and taking it from him since he knows it is for him, and bundles up in it. ]

Aaah, thank you, sir! It is cold; too cold! I must be in some place in Russia, it is so cold!

[ He hugs the jacket around him even more, shuddering, then pins his brows together. ]

I do not like this, or where I am, and I would like to go home, eughh, as soon as possible, please! Now, if you could just locate me to the nearest airport, that would be wonderful!

[ooc: Thank you!]

[He initially blinks blankly when jacket is taken off him just like that. But he's spent enough time in high society to be able to recover quickly and smoothly.

Charles does put in the initial effort of trying to understand France, but he quickly gives up and uses a trick he'd learnt early on. A quick touch of his fingers to his temple and then he knew exactly what France was saying. His French also clearly improved since he was borrowing France's knowledge although he's pronunciation still isn't perfect.]

I'm afraid that just isn't possible even if there was an airport here.

[ France cannot really tell a difference in his performance; he just heaves a sigh. ]

No, no. Euuughhh. You don't understand. I need to get back to Paris as soon as possible! I have a European Union to attend to; a life back there! Surely there is a way of transport out of here, yeah?

[The EU didn't gain it's current name until 1993 so there's puzzlement as Charles deliberates over that name.]

None that anyone knows of. As this is supposed to be a dream it is expected that we will one day wake up and nothing would have changed.

--A dream and nothing would have changed....
Oho, that is something. That is rich.

How is it that it feels so real then, hm?

You don't often realise you're dreaming until you've woken up.

Is that so...? This is all just dreaming--?
So I am free to do whatever it is I desire?

[Looking slightly confused.]

I assume so? Was there something preventing you before?
