We don’t interact much, I suppose our paths don’t cross often enough. I wish they did! Of course the country seems to have some sort of…Vendetta against your name, but I blame that on Hamilton. I adore the man, but the amount of merde, he speaks..

No matter, I wanted to write you to let you know you do have a friend in me. I have heard word of your character and quite honestly appreciate you.

There was a group of les jeunes speaking about you and something…Odd. I could not catch all of it, they were whispering and my abilities at the english language are three years young. Only that they did not want anybody else knowing.

You can tell me, father General Washington does not need to translate letters for me anymore, so our correspondence is only between us.

Your favorite French man, Marquis De Lafayette

Dear Lafayette,

It is indeed unfortunate that we do not seem to talk much. Hamilton talks too much for anyone's good. Much less himself.

I appreciate your kind praise, truly. You yourself are a man of quite high honor, and have earned the titles to your name—I do not feel of writing them out, as I need not more hand cramping. However, in a simple statement, I respect you, truly.

I am uncertain what people may be talking about, but it's a constant flow of rumors nonetheless. People talk and chatter without end, I'm sure it is not of your worries.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I appreciate your praise as well. I hardly ever write out my full name, good lord it is too much. When my family heard I was leaving to America they blessed me with just about every saint they could think of. Perhaps that’s why I’m so great. And also humble.

I do wish to speak with you more often, you seem quite interesting. I heard of your secretive nature and wish for nothing more than to know why you are such a way.

My apologies, I don’t want to pry. Is there a word in the english language for wanting to know things but not wanting to be pushy? That’s what I am.

Let me know if I can do anything to help,

Every saint and then some, it seems. They must have blessed you, at least one of them.

As for my secretive tendencies, it started from the way I was raised, and simply carried with me as I grew. That is about the story, simply.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

Well of course that’s why you began being secretive, but i’d to know what secrets you’re keeping. Call me nosey, I suppose.

Of course this is our first time talking, i am not asking for everything about yourself. Simply letting you know I will be prying.

I will Tais-toi now, thank you for amusing me anyways.

I hold many secrets, as do all, my friend. It's human nature. Certan things the human mind holds, it concludes sharing it is not a fine thing to do. In any case, I just hold mine closer.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I am an open book! Of course there’s the occasional white lie or private thing, but not much.

I look forward to finding out the things you hold close, perhaps they are interesting.

They are not very much interesting, to say...

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

Then tell me the uninteresting things. Unless of course you’re hiding something major, like eating people.

I kid, you don’t seem the type. Back in France when I was far younger I remember watching a trial for a cannibal, I believe he was hanged. Always made me curious though, I wondered what made him do it. My family did not entertain my questions.

No, of course, nothing that major. I would not. Yze lyjzyp hsz td vtyo-splcepo, ty lyj nldp.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

So? What are the unmajor things? I’m left curious.

Not much of interest, to be honest. Mostly things from the past that I do not particularly enjoy to write about...

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I believe I heard Hamilton discussing your name recently. Nothing bad, from what I could tell. Or…Nothing majorly bad for Hamiltons standards.

They sounded like simple rumors, most of them absurd. Do you want me to speak with him about spreading lies, it’s unsettling to hear your name tossed around so négligemment.

I trust Hamilton enough to say it likely wasn't anything too dangerous to be spoken, nor any horrible rumors. However, it would be much appreciated if you could tel him to stop talking about me—he does that way more then he should, from what I have been told.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

Hamilton enjoys talking merde about you, it seems to be his thing.

I’ll let him know people don’t appreciate it. At least I don’t.

Thank you, I appreciate that. The man cannot hold his tongue, it appears. I believe he says everything on his mind a mile before he thinks about it for a second.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I adore Alexander, I love gossip just as much as the next, but sometimes he does take it too far.

It would seem he has nothing to lose. Sometimes I envy that.

I do agree with you. He seems to not care if he loses everything he has. He just.... Keeps moving. It's equally impressive and concerning.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I wonder what it would’ve been been like to come up as he did.

We’re both orphans. Well all three of us are, but me and you had money and a basic support system. Hamilton has to fight for everything he gets.

If he simply thought a little more he would be respected by just about everyone. Instead he’s respected by all the right people.

Washington favors him, many soldiers favor him, even I do despite my own grievances. I suspect he rise up the ranks easily.

Hamilton came to America on donations and pure spite, and I respect that. I wish he'd just watch what he says to what people, sometimes.

He's honorable, but I'm afraid he forgets himself, sometimes. He has a lot to learn about the real world still. Respect from few won't get him far if the public dislikes him. Hopefully he doesn't make any powerful enemies, truly.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I’m glad we share the same sentiment about him. Laurens is obsessed with him and the only soldiers who dislike him have such a hatred for him I would feel out of place talking to them. It’s rare I find someone who truly agrees with me.

I find it is either they worship the ground he walks on, they respect him on a high level, or they despise of him. Rarely ever an inbetween. It's almost amusing.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

Him and Laurens are…Quite close. I suppose if you ever needed to spread a rumor about him as revenge, saying him and Laurens’ relationship is more than professional wouldn’t be stretching the truth.

I believe it would simply be stating the truth. The two are closer than friendship. Even General Washington knows that.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I almost envy them. It would be nice to have someone by your side, especially in a war like this.

Of course I have Washington, I have friends, but Hamilton and Laurens have something special. It would be nice.

I agree. But I suppose they've earned it, in any case. The both of them have worked their way through their own struggles. And maybe Laurens can keep Hamilton from dooming himself, who knows.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

They keep eachother on a leash, it’s almost funny.

But anyways, do you have anyone close to you? I’m curious now.

Not at the moment, no. I have a handful of friends, but that is all.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

That is surprising, you are an interesting man to talk to.

Unfortunate you have nobody to properly share yourself with.

I am quite fine on my own.

Do you have anyone by your side, currently?

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I technically have a wife back in France, but we married very young. Arranged, a political thing. We view eachother as best friends sometimes.

Nothing like what Hamilton and Laurens have.

I see. Well, regardless, I wish you both well.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

There’s close to nothing romantic between us, but I appreciate it anyways.

I wish the best for you and whomever you find for yourself.

V qba'g xabj jub va uryy jbhyq jnag gb or jvgu zr, ohg gunax lbh naljnlf.

Do you have any other family? I've heard stories, but people talk of lies or tall-tales more then truths.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

My parents died while I was young, so for a long time I was under the care of my Arrière-grand-mère and Arrière-grand-père. When I was arranged to marry Adreninne I was taken into their family, my father and mother in law are very close to me.

I understand you are also an orphan, but do you have any other family with you?

My parents reached the same unfortunate fate. For other family... I do not talk with many, I am mostly estranged. I was taken in by my uncle, but he was not the best caretaker.

I am glad you have found comfort in your in-laws, though. I hope they are well and stay well.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I’m terribly sorry for my long reply time, the war is busying.

I am sorry about your uncle, I hope he meets or did meet the fate he deserved. I hope you have found freinds to fill the place he could not.

Thank you! I write there often, from their letters they are doing okay. Although rebellion is whispered in the streets of France, which worries me.

Do not fret. War is more important than simple correspondences, I believe.

A rebellion in France would be a matter to fright. Who know what would happen because of that—with all politeness, the French are not known for being civil or peaceful on matters, especially such important ones.

yr mst hmbl & obt svt,

No offense taken. In fact thank you, my people do not roll over like pathetic dogs you are correct.

While I understand why the people are upset and would even fight with them if the circumstances were different, I fear they’ll kill nobles that I hold dear.

This king is not our best, that’s for sure. I fear for where my country is headed, I can only hope they take after America.

I hope your family, and the nobles you hold dear, as well as yourself, stay safe in the event of your people murdering people in power.

It seems no king is truly fit for a king anywhere. It's a pity—Monarchies would work much better if kings cared a bit for their people. I do wish your country well.

yr mst hmbl & obt svt,

Thank you, I do hope I’m home before anything violent breaks out.

Constitutional Monarchs are nice, but…Yes, too little care too much power. It’s a shame.

I will Tais-toi now, thank you for amusing me anyways.

I hold many secrets, as do all, my friend. It's human nature. Certan things the human mind holds, it concludes sharing it is not a fine thing to do. In any case, I just hold mine closer.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I am an open book! Of course there’s the occasional white lie or private thing, but not much.

I look forward to finding out the things you hold close, perhaps they are interesting.

They are not very much interesting, to say...

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

Then tell me the uninteresting things. Unless of course you’re hiding something major, like eating people.

I kid, you don’t seem the type. Back in France when I was far younger I remember watching a trial for a cannibal, I believe he was hanged. Always made me curious though, I wondered what made him do it. My family did not entertain my questions.

No, of course, nothing that major. I would not. Yze lyjzyp hsz td vtyo-splcepo, ty lyj nldp.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

So? What are the unmajor things? I’m left curious.

Not much of interest, to be honest. Mostly things from the past that I do not particularly enjoy to write about...

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I believe I heard Hamilton discussing your name recently. Nothing bad, from what I could tell. Or…Nothing majorly bad for Hamiltons standards.

They sounded like simple rumors, most of them absurd. Do you want me to speak with him about spreading lies, it’s unsettling to hear your name tossed around so négligemment.

I trust Hamilton enough to say it likely wasn't anything too dangerous to be spoken, nor any horrible rumors. However, it would be much appreciated if you could tel him to stop talking about me—he does that way more then he should, from what I have been told.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

Hamilton enjoys talking merde about you, it seems to be his thing.

I’ll let him know people don’t appreciate it. At least I don’t.

Thank you, I appreciate that. The man cannot hold his tongue, it appears. I believe he says everything on his mind a mile before he thinks about it for a second.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I adore Alexander, I love gossip just as much as the next, but sometimes he does take it too far.

It would seem he has nothing to lose. Sometimes I envy that.

I do agree with you. He seems to not care if he loses everything he has. He just.... Keeps moving. It's equally impressive and concerning.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I wonder what it would’ve been been like to come up as he did.

We’re both orphans. Well all three of us are, but me and you had money and a basic support system. Hamilton has to fight for everything he gets.

If he simply thought a little more he would be respected by just about everyone. Instead he’s respected by all the right people.

Washington favors him, many soldiers favor him, even I do despite my own grievances. I suspect he rise up the ranks easily.

Hamilton came to America on donations and pure spite, and I respect that. I wish he'd just watch what he says to what people, sometimes.

He's honorable, but I'm afraid he forgets himself, sometimes. He has a lot to learn about the real world still. Respect from few won't get him far if the public dislikes him. Hopefully he doesn't make any powerful enemies, truly.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I’m glad we share the same sentiment about him. Laurens is obsessed with him and the only soldiers who dislike him have such a hatred for him I would feel out of place talking to them. It’s rare I find someone who truly agrees with me.

I find it is either they worship the ground he walks on, they respect him on a high level, or they despise of him. Rarely ever an inbetween. It's almost amusing.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

Him and Laurens are…Quite close. I suppose if you ever needed to spread a rumor about him as revenge, saying him and Laurens’ relationship is more than professional wouldn’t be stretching the truth.

I believe it would simply be stating the truth. The two are closer than friendship. Even General Washington knows that.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I almost envy them. It would be nice to have someone by your side, especially in a war like this.

Of course I have Washington, I have friends, but Hamilton and Laurens have something special. It would be nice.

I agree. But I suppose they've earned it, in any case. The both of them have worked their way through their own struggles. And maybe Laurens can keep Hamilton from dooming himself, who knows.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

They keep eachother on a leash, it’s almost funny.

But anyways, do you have anyone close to you? I’m curious now.

Not at the moment, no. I have a handful of friends, but that is all.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

That is surprising, you are an interesting man to talk to.

Unfortunate you have nobody to properly share yourself with.

I am quite fine on my own.

Do you have anyone by your side, currently?

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I technically have a wife back in France, but we married very young. Arranged, a political thing. We view eachother as best friends sometimes.

Nothing like what Hamilton and Laurens have.

I see. Well, regardless, I wish you both well.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

There’s close to nothing romantic between us, but I appreciate it anyways.

I wish the best for you and whomever you find for yourself.

V qba'g xabj jub va uryy jbhyq jnag gb or jvgu zr, ohg gunax lbh naljnlf.

Do you have any other family? I've heard stories, but people talk of lies or tall-tales more then truths.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

My parents died while I was young, so for a long time I was under the care of my Arrière-grand-mère and Arrière-grand-père. When I was arranged to marry Adreninne I was taken into their family, my father and mother in law are very close to me.

I understand you are also an orphan, but do you have any other family with you?

We don’t interact much, I suppose our paths don’t cross often enough. I wish they did! Of course the country seems to have some sort of…Vendetta against your name, but I blame that on Hamilton. I adore the man, but the amount of merde, he speaks..

No matter, I wanted to write you to let you know you do have a friend in me. I have heard word of your character and quite honestly appreciate you.

There was a group of les jeunes speaking about you and something…Odd. I could not catch all of it, they were whispering and my abilities at the english language are three years young. Only that they did not want anybody else knowing.

You can tell me, father General Washington does not need to translate letters for me anymore, so our correspondence is only between us.

Your favorite French man, Marquis De Lafayette

Dear Lafayette,

It is indeed unfortunate that we do not seem to talk much. Hamilton talks too much for anyone's good. Much less himself.

I appreciate your kind praise, truly. You yourself are a man of quite high honor, and have earned the titles to your name—I do not feel of writing them out, as I need not more hand cramping. However, in a simple statement, I respect you, truly.

I am uncertain what people may be talking about, but it's a constant flow of rumors nonetheless. People talk and chatter without end, I'm sure it is not of your worries.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I appreciate your praise as well. I hardly ever write out my full name, good lord it is too much. When my family heard I was leaving to America they blessed me with just about every saint they could think of. Perhaps that’s why I’m so great. And also humble.

I do wish to speak with you more often, you seem quite interesting. I heard of your secretive nature and wish for nothing more than to know why you are such a way.

My apologies, I don’t want to pry. Is there a word in the english language for wanting to know things but not wanting to be pushy? That’s what I am.

Let me know if I can do anything to help,

Every saint and then some, it seems. They must have blessed you, at least one of them.

As for my secretive tendencies, it started from the way I was raised, and simply carried with me as I grew. That is about the story, simply.

I hold many secrets, as do all, my friend. It's human nature. Certan things the human mind holds, it concludes sharing it is not a fine thing to do. In any case, I just hold mine closer.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I am an open book! Of course there’s the occasional white lie or private thing, but not much.

I look forward to finding out the things you hold close, perhaps they are interesting.

They are not very much interesting, to say...

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

Then tell me the uninteresting things. Unless of course you’re hiding something major, like eating people.

I kid, you don’t seem the type. Back in France when I was far younger I remember watching a trial for a cannibal, I believe he was hanged. Always made me curious though, I wondered what made him do it. My family did not entertain my questions.

No, of course, nothing that major. I would not. Yze lyjzyp hsz td vtyo-splcepo, ty lyj nldp.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

So? What are the unmajor things? I’m left curious.

Not much of interest, to be honest. Mostly things from the past that I do not particularly enjoy to write about...

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I believe I heard Hamilton discussing your name recently. Nothing bad, from what I could tell. Or…Nothing majorly bad for Hamiltons standards.

They sounded like simple rumors, most of them absurd. Do you want me to speak with him about spreading lies, it’s unsettling to hear your name tossed around so négligemment.

I trust Hamilton enough to say it likely wasn't anything too dangerous to be spoken, nor any horrible rumors. However, it would be much appreciated if you could tel him to stop talking about me—he does that way more then he should, from what I have been told.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

Hamilton enjoys talking merde about you, it seems to be his thing.

I’ll let him know people don’t appreciate it. At least I don’t.

Thank you, I appreciate that. The man cannot hold his tongue, it appears. I believe he says everything on his mind a mile before he thinks about it for a second.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I adore Alexander, I love gossip just as much as the next, but sometimes he does take it too far.

It would seem he has nothing to lose. Sometimes I envy that.

I do agree with you. He seems to not care if he loses everything he has. He just.... Keeps moving. It's equally impressive and concerning.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I wonder what it would’ve been been like to come up as he did.

We’re both orphans. Well all three of us are, but me and you had money and a basic support system. Hamilton has to fight for everything he gets.

If he simply thought a little more he would be respected by just about everyone. Instead he’s respected by all the right people.

Washington favors him, many soldiers favor him, even I do despite my own grievances. I suspect he rise up the ranks easily.

Hamilton came to America on donations and pure spite, and I respect that. I wish he'd just watch what he says to what people, sometimes.

He's honorable, but I'm afraid he forgets himself, sometimes. He has a lot to learn about the real world still. Respect from few won't get him far if the public dislikes him. Hopefully he doesn't make any powerful enemies, truly.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I’m glad we share the same sentiment about him. Laurens is obsessed with him and the only soldiers who dislike him have such a hatred for him I would feel out of place talking to them. It’s rare I find someone who truly agrees with me.

I find it is either they worship the ground he walks on, they respect him on a high level, or they despise of him. Rarely ever an inbetween. It's almost amusing.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

Him and Laurens are…Quite close. I suppose if you ever needed to spread a rumor about him as revenge, saying him and Laurens’ relationship is more than professional wouldn’t be stretching the truth.

I believe it would simply be stating the truth. The two are closer than friendship. Even General Washington knows that.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I almost envy them. It would be nice to have someone by your side, especially in a war like this.

Of course I have Washington, I have friends, but Hamilton and Laurens have something special. It would be nice.

I agree. But I suppose they've earned it, in any case. The both of them have worked their way through their own struggles. And maybe Laurens can keep Hamilton from dooming himself, who knows.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

They keep eachother on a leash, it’s almost funny.

But anyways, do you have anyone close to you? I’m curious now.

We don’t interact much, I suppose our paths don’t cross often enough. I wish they did! Of course the country seems to have some sort of…Vendetta against your name, but I blame that on Hamilton. I adore the man, but the amount of merde, he speaks..

No matter, I wanted to write you to let you know you do have a friend in me. I have heard word of your character and quite honestly appreciate you.

There was a group of les jeunes speaking about you and something…Odd. I could not catch all of it, they were whispering and my abilities at the english language are three years young. Only that they did not want anybody else knowing.

You can tell me, father General Washington does not need to translate letters for me anymore, so our correspondence is only between us.

Your favorite French man, Marquis De Lafayette

Dear Lafayette,

It is indeed unfortunate that we do not seem to talk much. Hamilton talks too much for anyone's good. Much less himself.

I appreciate your kind praise, truly. You yourself are a man of quite high honor, and have earned the titles to your name—I do not feel of writing them out, as I need not more hand cramping. However, in a simple statement, I respect you, truly.

I am uncertain what people may be talking about, but it's a constant flow of rumors nonetheless. People talk and chatter without end, I'm sure it is not of your worries.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

I appreciate your praise as well. I hardly ever write out my full name, good lord it is too much. When my family heard I was leaving to America they blessed me with just about every saint they could think of. Perhaps that’s why I’m so great. And also humble.

I do wish to speak with you more often, you seem quite interesting. I heard of your secretive nature and wish for nothing more than to know why you are such a way.

My apologies, I don’t want to pry. Is there a word in the english language for wanting to know things but not wanting to be pushy? That’s what I am.

Let me know if I can do anything to help,

Every saint and then some, it seems. They must have blessed you, at least one of them.

As for my secretive tendencies, it started from the way I was raised, and simply carried with me as I grew. That is about the story, simply.

yr mst hmbl & obd svt,

Well of course that’s why you began being secretive, but i’d to know what secrets you’re keeping. Call me nosey, I suppose.

Of course this is our first time talking, i am not asking for everything about yourself. Simply letting you know I will be prying.
