The First Queen of England

Human 1: Alright, Flag
Human 2: Check
Human 1: Anthem
Human 2: Check
Human 1: hm, something is missing
Human 2: Back up flag?
Human 1: No, no, no
Human 2: What then?
Human 1: Well, I think if we are starting something as important as England, well, someone should take responsibility
Human 2: Yes - every citizen should be responsible for the well being of their nation
Human 1: hm, ooh - don’t want to burden everyone. Maybe just one of us should, you know, take the reigns, so to speak
Human 2: What do you mean?
Human 1: No - I’m just saying - Too many cooks spoil the broth - I think we should have a smaller group
Human 2: Like a committee?
Human 1: Smaller
Human 2: A couple?
Human 1: Smaller
Human 2: A trio.
Human 1: No, you’ve gone bigger
Human 2: Okay - so ..
Human 1: One - just one - ruling alone
Human 2: So, what you’re saying is - as the founders of this nation - you or I should be in charge
Human 1: Exactly! As the founders of this nation ... I should be in charge
Human 2: You?
Human 1: For starters
Human 2: Oh, so we take turns - so like, after you I’m queen
Human 1: No, after me it’s my daughter
Human 2: And after her?
Human 1: Her daughter.
Human 2: And after her?
Human 1: Her daughter.
Human 2: I’m sensing a pattern here
Human 1: That’s why I put you in charge of making the flag
Human 2: And a bloody good flag it is too! And I did the Anthem!
Human 1: Oh - yeah - on that - just a suggestion
Human 2: What?
Human 1: Well, about the chorus
Human 2: God Save England?
Human 1: Yeah - Don’t get me wrong. I love god saving things. Divine intervention - brilliant. Bit broad though, isn’t it?
Human 2: What do you suggest?
Human 1: Just - just - Let’s make it more specific - you know?
Human 2: Like, God save the citizens of England?
Human 1: (Starts singing) God save the citize- Hmm, no - that doesn’t fit the meter. How about God save the Queen
Human 2: And who'd be queen?
Human 1: I'd be queen
Human 2: Fine. I'm gonna marry you and then I'll be king!
Human 1: You love me?
Human 2: I don't
