"I'm bored!" Ferdinand protested in his usual jovial tone, "and not the slightest bit tired. Fancy sneaking out into town?" Sneaking being the operative word; a prince Ferdinand may be, free to go where he pleases, when he pleases, he was not. Not least after the events of the last outing.
"Are you certain?" Jose replied, "I thought you'd bowed never again... after last time?"
Ferdinand smirked. as if he needed the all to inevitable reminder of his last unscheduled foray out of the palace, when the excess of alcohol poured down his throat courtesy of a dockside publican had resulted in his night ending with him naked on a fishing trawler. He was lucky his two friends found him, Carlos generously donating his outfit to the nude prince, before anyone else had realised who he was.
"Gaah! That was over a month ago" Ferdinand said, waiving one hand dismissively before turning to Carlos for his opinion. "Come on!"
"I'm in... but i'm not walking back to the palace in my small clothes again. If it's a repeat of last time, you're on your own!" he said with a grin on his face, as if he'd really abandon his friend and prince. Still though, he did not relish the thought of having to walk near naked back to the palace on account of said friend's stupidity.
"Fine" Jose said with a sigh, not wishing to labour the point further. "But... seriously, you can't go in that."
"I know. I know" Ferdinand said, brushing his hand across Jose's shoulder, before turning back to Carlos. "Let me borrow that outfit again. The one you gave me when..."
"Yes. I know which one" he replied, retreating calmly into the closet to retrieve the rich, if plain and austere looking outfit he had dressed his hungover friend in on that previous occasion. It only took him a few minuets to retrieve the basic garments; returning to the main bed chamber to find Ferdinand stripped down to his underwear, and leaning on the edge of his bed. "Here."
