I ended up picking all book characters, so I'm including their names because they might not be universally recognizable. And I have no idea if anyone else has read all of these books, so this will be interesting! ^^'

Fanny Price from Mansfield Park by Jane Austen:

Lirael from the Old Kingdom series by Garth Nix:

ROUND 2: POLL 23

[ladymegwelles]

& @katharined

Save the dowager queen, there were very few members of court left who could claim to have known either of Meg's parents. The passage of time had been kind to some, blessing them with marriages and children that took them far from court, while others suffered fates similar to that of the Welleses. Still, there was one woman, particularly fond of the French herself, whose presence Meg would always welcome.

Katharine Brandon's life had taken many a twist and turn, both due to the circumstances of her parents' marriage and the blood that she and her children carried as a result; while Meg could not relate to the idea of strife between multiple branches of a family tree, she had certainly heard and seen enough of it living under the Tudors' and Boleyns' roofs. In any case, in spite of the tensions between cousins, Meg had always like Kate Brandon, a formidable woman who carried herself as though she were a reigning monarch herself, as her mother and aunt and uncle were, and cousins now were as well.

Meg had decided to call on the dowager duchess once things at court had settle,. after all of the travelers returned. With the Spanish alliance all but secured and rumors of Edward Seymour snuffed out, Meg hoped that peace would continue to cling to England's shores. "Lady Suffolk, I hope I do not disturb you. It has been some time since we spoke, and I wished to see how you fare."

a mother-son stroll in the gardens

    Nicholas found a moment's leisure, and with a pensive sort of content, set out for his newfound lady mother's quarters. It was sacrilege - the intrusion of a man into the apartments of the Grey's - but Nicholas knew himself privileged; perhaps he believed himself trusted. Common sense was a virtue Nicholas digested at his own pleasure. Katharine's ladies introduced Nicholas with reluctance; he hastily offered his pardons, and the request of her company. Instead of sending him away, Katharine detained him to take a turn with in the gardens she knew him to love; they toured merrily, beneath a sky which blushed so vividly, that its hue mirrored the temperate blue light of Kate's eyes, bestowing all a warm glow. All walks and shrubs in the garden had acquired a new interest; plants, full and bright with bloom, basked in the sun's bounty.

   Katharine was all-good nature; she spoke with that famed tact of hers, surpassed by no living thing - for his faults, she would not tender a remonstrance. He liked her for her capital sense, and her principles; under any mask of asperity, she was good-hearted."I risk tempting fate by wagering you shall have a grandchild born in the new year - would you afford me the honour, of naming our child in your honour? I do not disparage my wife in dismissing she shall afford me male heirs; but I cannot deny the fondness, the notion of a little Katharine brings me." Smart, trim and pert, Katharine eschewed the dumpy, motherly little body a grandmother was wont to inhabit; without youth, her beauty still cheered - one never tired of seeing her. "The court is a flurry over King William's prospects - but he is by far, outstripped by you, in his eligibility on the marriage circuit; would you scoff at notions of marrying a rich Italian banker, or one of the Emperor's finest? I would mourn your departure from our side, but it would be foolish to deny you delight the courts still with your beauty and singledom."

Asked about what she was listening to in an interview with The Sunday Telegraph, she said: “I just love music. Something that catches my ear on the radio — I don’t really listen to records. If it makes my feet tap then I’m happy.” She admitted: “I don’t know all their names” when she talked about rap music and the artists she liked, but was able to confirm Ice Cube and Eminem.
