How do you think Mattias and Arthur's bosses react to their decision to date again? And do the tabloids ever find out?
hm!
at first I was going on a long ramble about who and how the bosses found out and what I’d expect from a politician of that position but something else occurred to me: it would absolutely be someone in the British royal family, either in the household or extended, to be the one to spill the tea to the tabloids. to throw the tea, even, to dump it into the harbor. one of these fuckers is gonna cash in on that sweet royal rota money.
Mathias, I think, doesn’t face a lot, if any, repercussions? Denmark is one of the most queer-friendly countries in the world, which apparently started back in 1933, so that’s super fucking cool. yeah Mathias is fine. if anything, the Danish government probably hails it as a major PR win. hell yeah, free publicity! the pride parade in Copenhagen is gonna be so fucking LIT this year! I mean, they are still politicians after all
Arthur, who has to deal with the queerphobic atrocity responsible for a lot of Bullshit on Terf Island that is the British tabloids, is a lot less fine. but there is absolutely nothing more British than simply pretending the scandal didn’t happen by not addressing it at all while the peasants outside relish in the gossip, so the stance of Buckingham is simply to ignore it. (I can’t really comment on the Parliamentary side, though.)
in the end I think Arthur just outright fucking leaves the country for Denmark with Mathias because he is an intensely private person and cannot handle the public humiliation and general tabloid-paparazzi bullshit. presumably he has to be coaxed out by the UK gov and in the meantime one of his siblings temporarily takes over his duties so he can enjoy the much-needed vacation.
hm, this isn’t a very fun answer, is it?

I saw comments that the new butler from Ridekamens look like Sebek
He...kinda does
I wasn't gonna say it, but. that was kind of my first thought when he was revealed. :') maybe this is what Sebek's older brother is doing these days? he ran off to buttle for secret agents at a superhero cafe? actually wait that would be rad as heck, I'll accept this headcanon

so. so fukuchi implicitly believes fukuzawa incorruptible or at the very least the one he trusts in most, by agreeing that dictatorships are poisonous and yet still entrusting him with one order. but the intro to fukuzawa’s backstory we get is that he ultimately was changed by the nature of the assassinations he undertook; that he quit because he was starting to enjoy the killing. the ability to remain impartial and resist corruption of being is tied to the ability to step back from power. to step down when you’re ahead. but fukuzawa can no longer do that can he.

while we have everyone’s attention, I just want to point out that an underrated roykeeleyjamie trutherism is that keeley was literally wearing the letters “RKJ” in her hair DURING the struck by fucking lighting scene in 2x01
