It's one of the scenes I think back on a lot, so I hope you don't mind it as a gift lol Your y/n design is super cute btw! I had a lot of fun drawing them, it's always nice to see more inserts with piercings! And finally here are my flats, i quite like how the joint details turned out on his arms, it's a shame he blends into the shadows so well X3

If you have a poui tree on your property, just know that hypothetically, if we lived in the same country and I had to drive past your property. You and that goddamn tree are responsible for my heart stopping temporarily.

La quête d’équilibre

On nous enjoint à faire mille choses dans la vie pour la réussir mais dans le même temps à ralentir pour être en équilibre. A travers ce talk, Grégory Pouy nous décortique avec humour nos tentatives de solutions par l’optimisation ou par le développement personnel en nous en montrant les limites. Il nous met face aux paradoxes de cette société et nous invite à chérir nos déséquilibres et nous…

I finished a booook (it's for school but oh well it's still good)

It's called The Water Dancer by Ta-Nehisi Coates

It's about a guy named Hiram who is a slave and his job is to be his (white) half brother's servant. Except the brother dies and Hiram's life is precarious so he decides to leave with the woman he loves and shenanigans ensue.

TW for vague description of sexual assault and ah....racism.

And also, spoilers under the cut.

So here are my random thoughts about the book.

My teacher made us look for the symbolism of names. Some names are ironic some are literal. Like Thena, Hiram's mother figure, and Sophia, his gf, means wisdom. Those are literal. And Hiram's name means exalted brother which is ironic because he's a slave. Maynard (his white brother) means brave and courageous which is ironic because he's an ick. Howell means remarkable or eminent and I can't decide if that has a meaning or not.

And because my personality is a mix of all of my favourite female characters lettuce talk about my favourite female character, Sophia herself. Sophia is one of the strongest female characters I've ever seen. She goes through so much but she never loses her love or her self worth. And that's what I love about her because I aspire to be like that. (Well the self worth part mostly)

Like, this girl has had her agency ripped away from her every single weekend for years, eventually gets an entire baby from it, then the man that did it has he nerve to ask for her hand in marriage like he didn't consummate it already without her consent. And she still knows good and well that she, and her baby, deserve so much better and she's not afraid to take risks to make it. But at the same time she doesn't settle for pre-development Hiram who sees her as his property. He has to get a redemption arc.

Also Hiram and Sophia are definitely up there in my top favourite ships. Also Corrine and Hawkins 😯

Speaking of Corrine and Hawkins. There's an amazing quote but I don't have the book on me right now. Basically Hiram says that Corrine hates slavery more than she has ever loved a slave. And that hit so hard. Because Corrine does so many horrible things for the cause. She causes a whole street to be destroyed for the crimes of one man. She lets Hiram casually be hunted for sport just to make sure he can teleport (oh yeah, and he can teleport). She lets him live with the crushing guilt of sending Sophia Natchez-way when goodie is at Lockless the whole time. I really don't like her but I think she and Hawkins are perfect for each other because I think he's the only one in the novel who's been through enough to hate slavery as much as she does. Speaking of which my theory is that he got SA-ed as well but eh. They really don't say.

Also I love the epigraphs. Definitely gonna be included in my essays.

Back to fangirling. Harriet Tubman. Is a character in this book. She can also teleport and they call her Moses. She is wise. She is strong. I love her almost as much as I love Sophia. I will be keeping her close in my heart.

Ok that's my review for now. I'll be reading this book a lot more until my exams so if I have any more thoughts I'll share them here.

Sincerely,

Monica~

Marrying James — Femme Edition

For @groovy-lady, to accompany the enby version.

James had been thinking about proposing to you for a while, probably a few months, but he was still horribly nervous to actually do it. He wants things to go smoothly, and wants a little privacy for the occasion, so he'd pull you away somewhere nice while still socially appropriate, like a more secluded area of a garden or a section of Fort Charles with a view. When you actually accept, he'd find himself at a loss. But you can tell through his bright smile how happy he is, and you can't help but feel the same as you get to watch him let his guard down for once. 

The wedding planning is great because he's actually invested in it. He helps you pick out the colors and taste-tests with you, and he has a pretty good sense of what things aesthetically work together. I can certainly see a blue/white/gold theme going, but with lighter tones than the typical navy standard. 

And, when things get overwhelming, the Swanns are there to help. Oh, James wants to take care of it all himself, but Weatherby insists on lending a hand, and you simply can't turn down Elizabeth, who's decisive when you're not and gets things done when you're too exhausted to handle it all. Not to mention, she has impeccable taste, and would help make sure the aesthetics were up to perfection.

You’re probably wearing a dress, given the standards of the times, but whatever you wear is made of gorgeous silk brocade that compliments your husband-to-be’s military uniform. There is, of course, copious amounts of lace, though the accessories likely feature a modest set of pearls. The floral arrangements host a fun variety of native plants like hibiscus and golden poui that capitalize on your life in the Caribbean as opposed to England. 

The service is modest; James doesn't need the whole of Port Royal at the wedding, even if people may be peeking in through the windows. After all, their beloved Commodore is getting married, and they want to be in the know about it. Elizabeth can't always be the one who knows the tea. 

The Navy boys are ecstatic. The group of you are good friends already, of course, because Gillette and Groves couldn’t keep their noses out of James’ personal life (especially Gillette), so they’ve gotten to know you, whether by meeting you “on accident” or later when James finally showed you around Fort Charles. They want to help in any way they can, though they have little experience with wedding planning. But they’re there for moral support, particularly if James gets called away during the process and you’re left to your own devices. 

As the wedding draws nearer, James begins to have his doubts. Not about you, but rather about himself. He thinks back to his own family, how cold his parents could be, how lonely he could get. How, even within the privacy of their own home, his family kept to societal expectations and standards. He never wants you to feel like you can’t talk to him, and he wants your home to be full of warmth. He wants to share his time and space and thoughts and experiences with you, something he didn’t get growing up. He’s so scared that he’ll accidentally recreate a mirror image of the only family he’s ever known, and he couldn’t subject you to a life that depressing. 

You’ll have to get him to calm down, to come to bed, to eat regular meals. He has an unhealthy habit of, when he’s nervous, trying to distract himself with work. This leads to distracting himself from other important things, too. Thankfully, he’s whipped for you, and you can get him to do just about anything pretty easily. A guiding hand on his arm or shoulder and a word of reassurance here or there would go a long ways to James’ getting any proper rest leading up to the wedding. 

James looks at this as foreshadowing into your future; he realizes how easily you can take care of him, a concept he’d never really thought of before, and it melts him. He’s always envisioned himself as the provider, meeting that masculine expectation. On the other side of that, though, he never considers the care he might be receiving. So, as you help him de-stress, it dawns on him that your marriage may truly bring him to bliss. He knows you have his back, that you can be a source of strength for him unlike any he’s ever had. 

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again—James is a crier. He can’t keep himself from tearing up at the wedding, even before he sees you. His men, even Groves, are rather useless at pep-talks, so he just ends up getting excitedly hugged by those closest to him. This is where he first starts to choke up; it occurs to him that everyone present really does care about him, and it only gets worse when he sees you walking down the aisle. 

His mother is there, and while it sets him on his guard a little at first, she’s supportive of the match and pleasant to have around. She couldn’t be prouder of James for finding someone he loves who also befits his station, as she couldn’t, and she couldn’t be more pleased with you. 

The thing about having a wife, in particular, is the potential for children. James would never, ever, actually expect that of you, to carry his children, but if you wanted to, he would be bursting with adoration. He would have you both think on it for a while, of course. Children are a huge commitment, and he doesn't want to influence you toward that decision too quickly. That being said, he wants them desperately. He fears being like his own father—emotionally withdrawn and separate from his family—and it would take some encouragement to actually convince him he'd make a good dad. But he'd try. He'd try so hard and it would make all the difference. 

Alright, alright. Now to the part you really want: the wedding night. 

James doesn’t actually have much experience when it comes to endeavors below the belt, so he’s a bit nervous himself (haha). That being said, he does a good job of not showing it, knowing full well that you have much more reason for anxiety. He starts things slowly, taking your face in his hands and kissing you, giving you some time to relax into his embrace. He’s a consent king, so whenever he moves to do something new he asks if it’s alright. 

James is still a flustered mess as you begin to undress, watching with wide eyes despite trying not to. He’s curious, too, and helps you with your dress and undergarments, getting his lips on every new inch of exposed skin. It’s gentle, though, and relaxed. He wants to explore you, to map you out. He’s shocked when you return the favor, ridding him of his cravat with skilled fingers, carefully loosening buttons and ties he assures you he can do himself. Both of you are surprised to hear him gasp at the kisses you place to his chest and the way his eyes drift shut with the pleasure of it all. He has much the same effect on you, though, and he smirks a little when he manages to get a moan out of you, which you’re desperately embarrassed about. 

Things aren’t perfect—neither of you fully knows what you’re doing—but you’re figuring each other out together, which ends up being an intimate bonding experience. You both have to place a lot of trust in each other, but it pays off. 

And an aesthetic board because I can't help myself...

*bursts into Ereinion’s study looking dishevelled and panicked*

“Ereinion!

I need your help! You can’t ask questions, bring Elrond and a shovel!”

*two hours later*

“Well done boys, very well done. A fantastic job.”

*Elrond and Ereinion finish digging a large hole for readers new pet turtle as they lounge underneath a tree watching*

“Sir Turtle is very thankful.”

Staring at the pebble-sized turtle lounging on a rock under the shade of the Poui tree, he blinked a few times to ensure that he was positive about the size of the creature he was forced to dig a hole twenty times its size. “This is not what I had in mind when I was asked to dig a giant–sized hole,” he complained with a disappointed shake of his head.

hord fanfiction

Title haughtiness comes before the event

I am annoyed with Alicent so I made her suffer

Rhaenyra know Alicent like to judge others. She always had. Even as a little girl, the daughter of the hand had delighted in passing judgment over others, while painting herself and her only life as picture perfect, pouis and clean of all sin. Once they had sat in the gardens and talked about their futur husbands and how they should act. Alicent wanted a knight who would adore her. She would obey him and give him as manny children as he wished and he would defend them from harm. Rhaenyra herself did not like the idea of obeying a man and poping out babies. She wanted a man who would see her as his equal, who would put her safety and confort before that of any children they may have. She wanted to make her own choices. Alicent had laught and told her it was immposible and that women couldn't decided their own future. It was their duty to obey their husbands, if they wanted to be trieded well. Rhaenyra remembered looking at her in confusen before denying that. "My uncle Daemon says that as a true Dragon I don't have to bow down to anyone. He doesn't either." Alicent had scoffed and told her, that her uncle was a bad example and that she should not be around him so much. That had angered Rhaenyra and she had stormed off.

As the years passed Alicent became more hypocritical but Rhaenyra could not tell if her friend even noticed it herself. When she told her uncle about Alicents behavior he chuckeled and told her that Alicent was just like her father and that she should be careful. Those who snear at warriors often prefer the poisen. So the princess took his advice and when Alicent began to act strangly, she started to keep an close eye on her. Once she found out about Alicents visits to her fathers champers, late at night Rhaenyra was furious. She had trusted Alicent but that bitch betrayed her trust. So she begann to make a plan to ruin Alicents life. She know the pouis bitch better then most after all. She know all of Alicents dreams and would destroy each and ever one of them.

First she needed allies. This would be way more fun together. So she send a raven to Driftmark, inviding her cousins Laenor and Laena to court, under the excuse of getting to know her family better, which was not the complite reason but a good bonus. Once they arrived Rhaenyra brought them into the fold. The Velaryon siblings held somewhat of a grudge agaist the Hightowers. Since a while ago Laenor had been caught kissing a serving boy and Otto had used that to humiliat the boy for quiet a while. Spreding the word with the help of his oh so pouis daughter, who had the audacity to claim she just wanted to help Laenor find his way again. So naturely both were on board with her plan to bring Alicent down. Next was her uncle. It was easy to get him to return to court, a letter from her was all it took. Getting her father to let him stay was nearly as easy. A few tears and the plea for her family here to support her in this difficult time and her uncle was welcomed back. Seeing Ottos bitter face was just a bonus.

Together they planed. They had quiet a few very amusing ideas but her uncle had an more ruthless approch. Rhaenyra grinned. It was time to teach Alicent what happened when she played with fire.

----------------

Alicent had always been an obiedent daugher. She had never believed herself jealous or sinvoll. But something about Rhaenyra had alway rubbed her the wrong way. The princess shricked her duty at every turn. Paraded herself around shamelessly yet got everything she wanted presented to her. The princess belived herself above everyone and most just went along with it. Maybe that was one of the reason why she found herself in this situation she was in right now. Naked laying on the kings bed, prepering herself to became queen and possible getting pregnet with the kings son. But bevor the ling could take her maidenhead the door purst open and an enraged Rhaenyra stormed into the room, follow by a smirking Daemon. The princess raged at her and the king. Calling her father out, screaming on how he dishonered her mothers memorys by sleeping with a whore so soon after the queens death. The she turned to her and started calling her every name under the sun. Before turning to her uncle and demanding that the get her out, so she could talk to her father alone. Daemon gladly agreed, ordering his loyal gold clocks to drag her to the stocks to be wipped for her disrespekt. Alicent pleaded with Rhaenyra to stop, the she turned to the king who protested weakly but when Rhaenyra gave her father an ultimatum, he fell silent.

So Alicent was dragged through the keep, naked as the day she was born, followed by a laughing Daemon Tagaryen, calling out her shame for all to hear. Everyone from small coucil members to servents wittnessed it. Alicent wanted to die.

----------------

After everything was said and done, Rhaenyra had gotten her fathers word that he would not take on another wife and that she would be allowed to pick her own husband. Laena was made her new lady in waiting and Alicent was soon known through the seven kingdomes as a whore, who was found in a grieving mans bed (Laenor and Laena delighted in spreading the word). Her dreams of marrying a handsome man were distroyed and their would be no sibling to contest ehr claim to the throne.
