Round 3 - Return of the Meme

General Rules

Personal attacks and any kind of abusive trolling, hate speech, or bullying are obviously forbidden. Anon comments violating this rule will be deleted, signed in members will be banned.
If your comment is deleted/screened/frozen and you don't know why, please email the mod at hhanonmeme@gmail.com. (If you notice it happening to your comments and you know they're safe, a quick email for the mod to come and unscreen them would be helpful also).
Prompt posts will close to new prompts at 3,000 comments.

Prompting Rules

One prompt per comment.
Please follow the correct format (see below).
Include trigger warnings in the subject line. Use your discretion and please be considerate.
If your prompt is missing something, such as a subject or a warning, repost it in it’s entirety. It is not enough to reply to your own comment with the missing information. The mod will delete the previous duplicate comment.
Multiple fills of the same prompt by different author!anons are allowed.
If for any reason you start a fill but feel you can't finish the WIP you've created, and if you're happy to let someone finish it for you, put it up for HH Meme Fostering and Adoption.
Prompts for projects other than Horrible Histories (ie. Spy, Gavin and Stacy, Rev, St. Trinian's, the O2 adverts etc., and RPF involving actors from those projects should be posted at the What? They've acted in other things?! post.

Format of Prompts

Put [RPF] before RPF prompts.
For crossover prompts: "[Crossover], HH Character(s)/Other Character(s), [Fandom]"
Anyone, everyone, no one? Use "Other."
Put [GEN] before GEN prompts, just so you don't get unwanted shipping.
Use appropriate warnings. I'm trusting you all to know what that means.
Don't embed any photos, videos or other media.
Copy and paste links in full; anon comments with active coded links are marked as spam and the mod doesn't switch accounts often enough - it may be a few days before those screened comments are de-screened (see: emailing the mod a heads up if it happens).

Archiving Prompts and Fills

To make the archiving job easier, please drop a link to your fill/unprompted fic here at the fills post.
Nothing here you fancy filling? Take a look at the unfilled prompts archived here or at Round 1 or Round 2.

That's nearly the end of the storia, for onto the scene comes our much loved meme: HAIL TO THE QUEEN OF PROMPTIA.

“Sire,” Sotherby grumbled, “With all due respect, this is utterly ridiculous.”
“Oh, don’t be such a spoilsport, Sothers!” Charles said excitedly. “This is supposed to be fun!”
“Fun?” Sotherby laughed. “I had to buy Elizabeth II something!”
“Bess is great fun to buy for,” Charles smiled. “She knows what she likes.”
“And she likes to throw things she doesn’t like,” Sotherby muttered again, under his breath.
“Oh, look, found the party!” Charles cried, ignoring him.
Sotherby begrudgingly followed him as he skipped towards the gaggle of people crowded around a Christmas tree. The tree shone with fairy lights and the dark tunnel was illuminated in a cosy glow.
“Lizzie! Oh, and Anne, there you are. My darling Victoria, you look fabulous. Hello, Georgie, Beau, lovely to see you…” Sotherby heard his King greet the other royals and their friends with enthusiasm.
“Yours are the last to go under the tree,” Victoria said sternly, “You took your time!”
“We’ve been waiting ages.” Henry V complained.
“You get used to it,” George IV sniffed, before being shushed by Beau.
“Yes, well, the sewers are difficult to navigate, Vicky,” Charles said flippantly, before adding with a wicked grin, “Darling.”
Victoria smiled back, instantly won over by his charm, and Charles placed his and Sotherby’s gifts beneath the tree. “Right, well, how do we do it?”
“I suppose we just… hand them out,” came a suggestion.
“Marvellous!” Charles clapped his hands in delight. “So, who will be our Santa?”
“George,” said George III, gesturing towards his son, “He’s eaten enough.”
“Well, in that case Henry really ought to be it,” snorted Anne Boleyn at the back of the group, quickly followed by an angry “Oi!” from the King in question.
“I’ll do it!” Richard III piped up. The other monarchs groaned.
“He’ll just break them.”
“Can’t be trusted.”
“I can!” Richard squeaked. “I can too be trusted.”
“Alright, Richie, go ahead,” Charles nodded and Richard beamed with pride.
It took a good ten minutes to figure out which present belonged to whom… particularly with the four Georges. Finally, everyone had a gift in their hand.
“Ready,” Charles smiled. “Steady… unwrap!”
There was the rustle as wrapping paper was torn and the blizzard as it was thrown in the air and drifted down to the floor.
“Oh, look, Georgie! Some cufflinks!” shrieked Beau Brummel, delighted.
“A new pistol,” Dick Turpin muttered darkly. “Nice.”
“A wrist clock,” Robert Dudley snorted. “Very funny.”
“Alright, who thought it would be funny to buy me a diet book?” George IV demanded.
“Ooh, my own church!” Henry VIII whistled.
“I hope you kept the receipt,” Elizabeth I said, bored.
“Oh, Sothers!” Charles exclaimed. “Chocolate! My favourite. You really shouldn’t have.”
Sothers laughed. “But, Charles, I told you, I was buying for Her Majesty…”
“You really are a terrible liar, Sothers,” Charles said fondly, clutching the gift in his hand. “But only you would have gone to all the trouble of travelling through time to find me some chocolate.”
Sothers blushed. “It was too expensive in Stuart times.”
“I love it.” Charles smiled and slipped his hand into Sotherby’s. “Thank you.”

OP - Thank you! I feel pretty terrible health wise right now so this cheers me up so much. Richie handing out gifts! Charles flirting with Victoria! Georgie being adorably grumpy! Henry VIII getting a church! XD Thanks again.

Awwwwww!!! This is so amazing! Especially the confusion with the four George's, and the diet book XD

Bless them ALL!

I wonder what Richard got?

Love the idea of them celebrating Christmas together.
