And you guys thought that this AU was just Michael and KITT playing James Bond / Royalty. Nope.

Michael’s relationship with Wilton Knight in this AU is really quite bittersweet—the love and affection of a father and son, with the added layer of the formality of a king and his son, the prince. When Wilton starts to get sicker and sicker, Michael is promoted to Duke and starts ruling the country in his father’s stead. Then we cut in here, where Michael leaves for the United States for diplomatic visits, and… Well, use your imagination.

I think my German is much better this time around—instead of trusting Google Translate and iTranslate, I had an actual dictionary I borrowed from the German teacher at the high school. Why we never had German when I was in high school is beyond me. It’s probably because I was looking it up word by word and choosing the right one. ^^; I filled up a full lined page at jury duty on just the translations for most of this scene.
