Historians Wouldn't Call Us Lovers

i know the prompt was "valiant" but you never specified the type of valiant, so i twisted it.

and just so you know, i spent most of my afternoon on this and had a dilemma, so please enjoy it!

Day 2: Valiant

Sophie, the princess of Havenfield, could hear trumpets coming from the castle walls.

She looked out the window and saw that a special traveling party had come back from the outskirts of the kingdom.

A smile grew on her face and she hitched up her skirts so she could descend the stairs to greet them before her father did.

“Do you think Mare and Linh are going to be there?” one of her best friends, Princess Biana of the Everglen kingdom, joined her as she passed one of the many hallways.

In some of the years prior, Biana had gotten to know two knights-in-training, Lady Marella of the Fluttermont estate and the exiled princess who was adopted, Lady Linh of Solreef, and had confided to Sophie that she was in love with both, but they were in a relationship with each other and Biana didn’t want to intrude.

It broke Sophie’s heart a little because she could sense that both knights had shared affection for Biana as well.

“I don’t care.” Fitz, Biana’s brother, remarked. “I want to see if-”

“If Dex went home, I know.”

“N- no I don’t!”

“He definitely did.” Biana whispered to Sophie and they both giggled.

Fitz had also fallen in love with one of Havenfield’s knights, and Sophie’s cousin, Dex. 

Fitz wouldn’t admit it, but there was no denying how flustered he got when Dex was mentioned in the smallest way.

And, by the looks of it, Dex felt the same, but was better at covering it up by using his one-sided rivalry with the Crown Prince of Everglen.

“Well, a lot of them seemed to come back, so I’m positive.”

They came to a stop as they reached the doors that would open to the foyer.

Sophie could see the doubt on Biana’s face and patted her arm.

“We don’t have to see them if you don’t want to.”

“No, I do. Open the doors, please.”

The three royals hurried down the stairs as soon as the doors opened.

As soon as they passed the bottom step, the knights knelt in front of the princesses.

They were arranged according to rank and Sophie took pride in the fact that they were organized in a straight line. That must have been her lover, Stina’s, doing.

“You may rise and take off your helmets. I want to see the heroes that saved my kingdom.”

The knights did as she said and took off their helmets one by one.

When Linh and Marella undid their helmets, Biana ambushed them both with an embrace, causing all three girls to fall down, laughing.

Eventually, when Dex took his off, Sophie gave him a quick hug and went on her way.

When she looked over her shoulder, she could see Dex blushing and Fitz talking animatedly with his hands.

As Sophie moved to the left, she got worried each time someone took their helmets off and it wasn’t her lover. 

She tried to stay positive, but she was starting to lose hope like she’d already lost her love.

When it came to the last knight, she held her breath as they lifted the helmet and… long blond hair spilled out of it instead of the coily brown hair she was used to.

The face behind the helmet was her lover, Stina’s, second-in-command, Keefe.

His face bore the familiar look of a soldier who lost a loved one to a war and she feared the worst; for Keefe was known for his jokes and smirks.

“Where- where is she?” Sophie whispered softly, willing herself not to cry.

“She- Stina insisted on staying back. She was convinced that she made a discovery about the dragon. I- I tried to go back, but she kicked me away as the cave collapsed. I’m sorry. I tried.”

 Sophie could feel a tear sliding down her face.

No. 

No.

It couldn’t be.

How could the gods let this happen to her?

She’d done nothing wrong.

How could the gods take her love away from her? 

After everything she did-

Sophie let out a sob and collapsed onto Keefe.

-------

For the next two weeks, Sophie mourned her lover.

Her mother had tried cheering her up by saying that there was a possibility Stina was still alive.

It was no use.

She was inconsolable and didn’t leave her room.

Food and beverages were either tasteless to her or left cold.

A month later, a handmaid went in and woke her up.

"My lady, a suitor has come. They claim to have done something unachievable before. The king sent me here to get you ready.

Sophie could feel her head nod although she felt numb inside.

Her senses were numbed as she was led away to get ready.

Years ago, when she turned 15, her father had started a contest for her hand in marriage.

Ever since then, suitors had come far and wide in attempts to woo her, but none of them struck her like her friend from childhood, Stina.

Stina was the daughter of the Stable Masters and had made her ambition to be a knight obvious.

Originally, Sophie disliked Stina because she’d caught Stina saddling a horse in a way that made her think that the horse was being mistreated.

She’d come to her father and told him what she saw, but he simply laughed and told her that it wasn’t harmful to the horse in any way.

Sophie, being only 10 at the time, huffed and promised that she’d never ride a horse without its consent. 

Her mother, who was sewing nearby, had laughed and accidentally pricked her finger on the needle.

When she was 12, Stina teased her for falling off a pony.

Sophie ignored her and got back on.

When she was 14, she became friends with Stina and they put their past behind them.

That was also the year Stina started training as a knight.

When she was 15, she found out she was in love.

When she was 16, they became lovers.

At 18, Stina had been bestowed the official title of knight.

But despite the fact that she had fallen in love with Stina and had made their love public, the contest would carry on until she was too old to marry or Stina proposed; which would never happen now that she was dead.

She was currently 21; there was plenty of time until she was illegible for marriage.

-------

As she was preparing to be presented, Sophie couldn’t remember anything. She felt numb and emotionless as she went down the stairs despite most princesses’ excitement at a suitor.

Her father smiled when he saw her.

“You’ll like this suitor.”

Sophie nodded with no emotion behind it.

She was brought into the throne room and seated on her throne.

A knight was brought in after a few minutes of sitting.

They had a familiar figure, that crest seemed familiar, and, wait, was that-

The knight kneeled in front of Sophie and Sophie had a weird feeling that this had happened before, but she forgot when.

“My lady.”

Sophie’s eyes furrowed as she tried to remember where she’d heard that voice before.

“Rise and take your helmet off, please.”

The knight rose, but didn’t take their helmet off.

“I can’t take my helmet off, my lady.”

“Why not?”

“I’m quite hideous.” 

“That’s no excuse to deny my request.”

“I- I do believe that you would not like my appearance. People have fainted at the sight of it.”

“I have seen worse. Take. It. Off.”

They went back and forth over the helmet with the knight changing their argument every few sentences.

When the knight changed their argument once more, Sophie finally lost her temper and stood up.

She walked over to where the knight was standing and grabbed the sides of the helmet.

“Suitor or not, I am your future queen and I am determined to find out who managed to accomplish something that hasn’t been done before.”

Sophie started to pull the helmet up.

“Wait, I don’t recommend-”

But it was too late.

Sophie had pulled the helmet and-

It- it couldn’t be.

She had to be dreaming again. 

Standing in front of her was Stina; the lover she thought was lost.

She burst into tears.

“What- but- how- Keefe said-”

Stina sighed and smiled.

“This was supposed to be dramatic, but I guess we’ll have to make do.”

Stina held out her arms and Sophie tackled her to the ground.

“Never do that again.”

“Do what?”

“Scare me like that.”

“It wasn’t intentional. I found out that the dragon was just lonely. She needed some company, so I gave it to her.”

“That’s so you.”

“She’s also flying above the castle, just in case you didn’t know.”

Sophie quickly pulled away.

“SHE WHAT?!”

“Don’t worry, she’s harmless! She wants to negotiate with you!” 

Sophie sighed affectionately. 

“One of these days, you’ll give me a heart attack.”

“Of course.”

Stina stood up and helped Sophie up, but then went back down on one knee.

Sophie could feel her face turn red and her heart beat even faster; a feat she didn’t know could happen.

“Stina, don’t you think it’s too soon? I mean, I just found out you’re alive and there’s a dragon circling our heads and oh my stars, YES.”

-------

On the day of their wedding, Sophie started panicking inside when she saw Stina in a wedding dress.

Stina had chosen to wear the dress when it had come to choosing wedding apparel and seemed to be bent on keeping it. 

Now, Sophie was glad that Stina had fought to keep it, but was kind of regretting not getting a dress that gave her more room to breathe.

Stina’s cheeks turned pink seeing Sophie and gave a soft smile. 

“You’re beautiful.”

“Not as much as you.” Sophie replied without thinking.

-------

Everything was perfect. 

Sophie finally had things the way she wanted and needed.

Stina was beside her as her bride; 

Biana had gathered up enough courage to confess to both Marella and Linh and all three of them were dating; 

Fitz had finally asked Dex out and were in the over-sweetened beta stage of their relationship;

And even Keefe seemed to have gotten a crush on Linh’s brother, Tam, who had been visiting from their adopted country, Solreef, and they were busy arguing over hair, but Sophie could see that they were both smitten.

Really, there was nothing else the gods could do to make her happier.

[iheart-telepaths]

do u think tam and or linh would just walk into solreefs kitchen looking for sweets and yelp at the living hunk of stone standing there staring at them. like oh shit. i live with this guy. the hell.

[confessionsofkotlc]

I’m in desperate need of Prentice, Tiergan, Wylie Content.

I NEED IT.

I need new book called Reraveled with Tiergan taking care of Prentice while he healed and with them and Wylie (also maybe Tam and Linh) being a family together.

[cosmxc-ars3hol3]

i was talking to a friend of mine (straight) that also likes kotlc about queer rep (or more accurately, lack thereof) and headcanons and im gonna list the ones she saw and didnt really see.

happy pride

characters she saw as queer:

marella

sophie

fintan

bronte

elwin

della

livvy

quinlin

marella: this was the one she definitely saw/wanted the most and agreed that even if she doesn’t personally ship marelinh, its an awesome and cute ship (i ship it) and loved the opposites attract vibes (water and fire) (hc as pan)

sophie: she didnt fully see it at first, but i brought up the number of times that sophie describes biana’s lips and just her in general, and she agreed that sophie is queer (hc as bi)

fintan and bronte: (keeping as one section bc they give both us us the vibe that theyre exes) she definitely agreed straight away that both are giving bitter exes and that they were both mega fruity. also talked to her about characters shannon, if she made any queer, that fintan could (bc hes evil and all that, so it wouldn’t be any of the ‘good’ main characters) (no specific hc for bronte but we both agree that fintan wouldnt date women)

elwin: i brought up elwin bc i project heavily on him for my hc, she agreed (after explaining what i meant) that he def was it and also neurodivergent (hc as aroace)

della: ‘she is too girlboss to be straight’ -my friend. there wasnt too much discussion other than saying that she gave the vibes and there was something between her and livvy (hc as pan)

livvy: similar to della, my friend and i actually disagreed on what she was, i thought lesbian but my friend says bi or pan,

quinlin: another case of ‘not at first, but sorta saw it with my reasons’ for him, i brought up the ship of qualden. she laughed and said alden was wayyy too straight. we compromised on quinlin having a crush/gay longing when i meantioned a tumblr post (i think) i saw where they compared desc. of alden by quinlin and desc. of fitz by sophie (very similar)

vespera: lesbian vibes

edaline: i was kinda shocked, wasn’t expecting it but i actually like it. (hc bi but pref to men)

tiergan and prentice: she said that she kinda saw it for teirgan the whole time she read it, could see it for prentice but also reasoned with that he had a wife so he has to be atleast bi. we talked about tiertice, once prentice was healed, co-parenting wylie and anyone who decides they wanna live at solreef. (hc tiergan as gay and prentice as bi)

characters she thought were straight:

alden

gethen

alvar (i disagree)

ruy (by extension of alvar)

gisella

cassius

(the parents that havent been mentioned in the queer section)

keefe (another i disagree with (i hc as bi))

[the-great-gullon-incident]

Tiergan, to Rayni, Wylie, Tam, and Linh: When I was your age-

Rayni: But we’re three different ages?

[uni-seahorse-572]

@bookwyrminspiration I was your gifter!! I hope you enjoy :)

Summary:

When Fitz is finally cleared to leave the healing center, he can’t stomach the thought of staying with his traitorous brother - even if it’s just on the same property. So instead, he moves in with his mentor. The results… are much more than he would have ever expected.

@song-tam thanks for hosting <3

[crymeariveronceagain]

Wylie: What's two plus two?

Linh : Math.

Wylie: ...I will accept that answer.

[hi-imgrapes]

“there are no queer characters in kotlc”

he/him but thinking of they/hir and ey/em | thought he was aroace at first, but he realized he was gay when he saw liam hemsworth | lily loves bashing on him for having a crush on kovu from the lion king 2 | curses the most | best actor; like, you wouldn't be able to tell if he were really crying or not | would sit in the trunk if there were no seats available | absolutely gone for london's best friend | actually, all of my light-skinned ocs have ears that turn red | lily has the subtlest obvious panics, lloyd has the you wouldn't tell gay panics | orders the sweetest and overcaffeinated drinks | darkest humor | adhd by truslow is his fave song | he and fitz rarely get the arm rests bc they're cis | 'move, i'm gay' - lloyd to xaden as an attempt to flirt although he knows that both of them swing that way | shit at art, but he makes up for it by playing the drums really well | definitely doesn't do things to make him seem hotter to the guy he likes. definitely | he and keefe have matching earrings | meanwhile, he has matching necklaces with lily | has a working doorbell, but claims it's broken so they have to yell | lily knows how to cry on cue, but lloyd can hold back crying |

10 years of Keeper:

Alenefar/Endals

The prompt was “music”, so I drew Tiergan teaching his kids about human music. Prentice is probably the one taking the picture.

Kotlc characters as things people have said/done in my drivers’ ed class

Forkle: In my professional opinion, “just flooring it” is never a good idea.

Tiergan: What is it with you guys and hitting children? How about just don’t hit people in general?

Keefe, while watching a video about car crashes: Damn he got LAUNCHED.

“what should you look for in a parking lot in the winter?” Marella: FIRE

Dex: *takes meticulous notes on how to do donuts in a parking lot while not writing down any notes on traffic signs*

Sophie: If I walk out to my car and my seat is gone… well then that’s a problem for later isn’t it.

“what is something you should check for inside your car before getting in?” Linh: Jim Carey.

AU where everyone (sans Stina bc I don’t know how to write her) go to the human world to look for Keefe but wo telling anyone so they have no money except what Dex can steal from ATMs so they stay in a shitty motel and Fitz and Dex have a *there was only one bed* scenario and Marella and Linh do that voluntarily. Actually EVERYONE has to share except Maruca who nopes out and sleeps on a fuuton. And everyone is spread across two rooms right next to each other so they knock on the wall and pretend it’s morse code. And even tho Keefe is missing they go to shitty stores and Fitz and Sophie talk about the human world (he went there frequently since age six he’s gotta know something) and they all get to dress in human clothes and Tam discovers spiked chokers and doesn’t look back and Sophie remembers all the old emo bands she used to listen to and finds shirts from them and wears them exclusively. Linh discovers noise cancelling headphones and goes wild and paints them all like pastel yellow bc she feels like a yellow gal to me. Marella, Tam, and Sophie get matching leather jackets, and Dex and Fitz accidentally get matching jean jackets and both have simultaneous gay panic. Maruca discovers skateboarding and beanies and that’s how they find Keefe bc he also has discovered skateboarding and beanies and she’s like ‘fuck u u stole my thing’ and they get into a skate fight and then Sophie’s like “FUCK THAT’S KEEFE” and Maruca’s like “oh I forgot about that” and then he gets all sadboy on them and Tam just rolls his eyes and tells him to get his ass over here and then he goes back w them and also sleeps on a fuuton and they just kinda stay there for a while until Tiergan finds them and tells them if they wanna be here he can find them an actual apartment and no he won’t tell the Black Swan.
