Disclaimer: I do not own Rosencrantz or Guildenstern or the realms from which they were plucked. I have played Guildenstern though – does that count for anything?
Guildenstern
Oh gods, I didn't think we'd go like this. We did our duty - what more can any man say than that? But he double-crossed us, and he was meant to be our friend, and we-… We were going to let him die. There's some justice in that, I suppose. Still, he's a prince, and we are…we were but courtiers, we couldn't be expected to know all the politics involved. Oh god, I don't want to die. I'm twenty-six years old - we haven't lived yet! (Pause) At least I'm going first. He won't be scared then. Which is some comfort.
Rosencrantz
