"Take what you can get, and don't pretend to be grateful you have to," Harry Percy likes to say, right before someone (usually his wife) hits him very hard with the nearest object. No-one is completely sure whether this is because Kate disagrees, or because she just likes hitting him, and with those two it's generally considered a wiser plan not to ask.
They have a very nasty habit of answering. In detail.
These two! <3
His oldest son tends to point out that it doesn't really make any difference, since army or not, all they seem to want to do is eat people, but it's quite possible that he's just arguing for the hell of it, and to make the little vein on the side of his father's head throb even harder.
Besides, Hal was the one who worked out that fire is a very, very efficient way of re-killing the no-longer-interred. People tend to let a lot slide for that moment of inspiration.
Hal you magnificent bastard.
And are those Harry/Kate/Hal implications I spy?
If you had told me before today that a zombie plague AU for Shakespeare's histories could work, I would never have believed it. But this is absolutely fantastic, horrifying and sweet all at the same time.
