You must go out and you must smile. You must smile and wave. And never let them know how hard it is to bear. Queen Alexandrina Victoria

Do you not see that you are contradicting yourself? The etchings, they lower you down to the level of your people, but you are furious because a Latin tag, that most of your people cannot even understand, has been omitted from a coin.

—”then you should count yourself lucky, your majesty.” he does not mean to belittle, nor mock. “for when when one does, they are inevitably changed by it.” the lord had been in countless battles & skirmishes, and each let its mark in some small way. “let us hope peace will continue for quite some time.”
“Yes,” she said softly, hands running over her skirts to smooth out the wrinkles. “The men who wish to council me often speak of peace but violence seems to be their only answer when trouble arrises.” She said this with a slight tone of annoyance. She understood the need for it at certain times, and others, it simply confounded her. “The battles you fought, did you always agree with the reason as to why you were there?”

Surely her Majesty’s adamance was well-meant, and so he replied with an honest answer. “ All I intended to say was that, as Queen, have you considered the potential for your greatness? ” He pondered further, placing a responding card on the table. “ Your predecessors have forged a glorious legacy and it must be considerably daunting to look ahead in their shadows. ”
She rose a brow. “When I was younger, I found it daunting, yes.” She had been so young then, a girl. Casted in the shadow of her father and all those who came before her. “But I have found that trying to compare myself to my predecessors...” She placed her next card upon the table. “It does not make for a great queen.” She had taken the mantle, and she would rule as she saw best, not on what others before her had done.

@qceenvictoria
The young girl curtsied just like she had been taught, trying her best not to stare at the queen in front of her. The last thing Tilda wanted was to disappoint her Da during such an important visit. As nervous as she was, though, the girl clutched the flowers in her hands - picked with the greatest care for their guest of honor - so tightly she might as well crush their petals beneath her heel. “It is an honor and a delight to welcome you in Thal, your majesty”, she mumbled, almost too quietly, the white and blue petals in her outstretched hand all but glowing in the bright midday sun.
She smiled softly, and gave a nod of her head in greeting. The girl was so young. And it was very clear that she was nervous. It reminded her much of herself when she had been young. “It is an honor to be here,” she said kindly, taking the flowers the girl handed to her. “These are very beautiful, thank you. Did you pick them yourself?”
Now that she had children of her own, it was easier to interact with them and calm their nerves than it had when she had first become queen.

“ I mean no offence, your Majesty, ” he spoke, yet no conscientious attempt to appear forlorn was conducted. He could do very well to bite his tongue, but that would bring him no further to apologising profusely like he should.
“No offense taken,” she replied with a soft smile. “However you did not answer my question.” Sometimes she was rather impressed with people’s boldness, however she was unsure if this was one of those times.

𝚕𝚊𝚞𝚐𝚑𝚝𝚎𝚛 𝚏𝚕𝚒𝚌𝚔𝚎𝚛𝚒𝚗𝚐, how ought she speak of their friendship? he’s scarce found in the mess of her childhood, but his foot - prints landed all over it. is she angry? she should be. she should be. she’s always been angry at everything but him.
❝ something like that. ❞ something also not quite like that. ❝ he crashed into my garden when i was seven. ❞ when time began to fracture around her.
“He crashed into your garden?” She could not help the laughter that tumbled from her lips at the image. “Having met him, it seems fitting.” Seeing as how he had more or less crashed into her palace, more metaphorical than literal.
“Does he make a habit of crashing into places?” She was starting to see a pattern and merely wanted to know if she was right.

“I do not love my dog more than my husband,” she said with a laugh. She had loved Dash dearly, and loved Islay just as much, but to love them more than Albert? Never. “Anyone who says otherwise does not know me.”

“I assure you, it is not the first attempt on my life.” Yet her hands were shaking, best as she could she tried to hide that fact by holding herself tall. “And I doubt it will be the last.” But it was blanks, she was always told it was blanks. Not that it made it any less terrifying. “But thank you for coming to the rescue...” She looked to him, waiting for him to give his name.
