#but I would tag Napoleon as a bit of an adrenalin junkie
Note
you posted it a thousand years ago but that one modern au napolington was great. there was one just one thing i cant get out of my mind though. murat and arthur. how exactly would that go?? i want them being forced to go on a wine run or something and being in a car by themselves
oh the modern au where they fight over the plane seat? That's a classic.
Murat and Arthur would be hilarious. Murat's at the wheel and they're in Corsica visiting the in-laws and Murat's just taking hair pin turns like a demon as they drive down to Ajaccio to do a big shop for everyone and Arthur is having heart attacks. Multiple ones. Messages Napoleon 'If I don't make it back alive I want you to have my book collection.' Napoleon replies, 'Calm down, Joachim's not that bad.' Arthur is like, 'True, you're worse.' (
I feel like Arthur would have to try and keep Murat on track because he'd get sidetracked on other quests. So they're there to get like wine, bread, cheese, pork, and these seven vegetables that Letizia needs but Murat is like 'We can also get these other fifty items' and Arthur is like 'We don't need flaming hot cheetoh mac n' cheese' and Murat is like, 'But I want to know what the Americans are up to now with their insane food products. Plus, the kids will love it.'
Arthur squints, is fairly certain Murat isn't really buying this for the kids. Arthur isn't wrong. When it comes out of the shopping bag Napoleon is like, 'That looks radioactive. Arthur you were supposed to curb this sort of purchasing behaviour.'
Arthur wants to drive back when they're done at the Spar or wherever it is they end up stopping at. Murat is like 'No, you drive slower than my granny. '
In general, I think they'd be polite around each other and wouldn't get into fights or anything. They're just very different people. I don't see them being besties. The only time they're super friendly/brotherly is when Murat ropes Arthur into some insane game or prank, because Arthur had a bit of a prankster streak in him that would come out from time to time which Murat would capitalize on. When they start spending time together everyone begins holding their collective breath for whatever shenanigans are about to unfold.
Caroline is like, 'This is Arthur's fault. The Englishman is a bad influence. Trust Nabulio to bring in the trouble maker.' And Napoleon is like, 'E x C u S e M e. You married a man who is 80% feathers and leopard print.' Caro replies, 'You say that like it's a bad thing.'
I can see Arthur not getting on with Jerome because he would be like 'your brother is making STUPID decisions over and over again' and Napoleon is like, 'Yeah...that's Jerome for you.' It drives Arthur absolutely nuts because it's so frustrating.
