Summer 2026 - Pinhey Forest, Ottawa
the way up had been excruciating for ray, sitting beside luci the entire drive up, but unable to actually see her due to the blindfold tied tightly across his eyes thanks to his mother. several times throughout the drive he had muttered something about stupid traditions and nothing about today being traditional. still, he sat blinded throughout the ride, all the way up until his father had guided him down the path and gave him the okay to remove the blindfold. while his eyes adjusted to the light, ray carefully folded it and put it into his pocket. there weren't any decorations or over-sized speakers and the attendance was intimate, but that was how ray and luci wanted it. just the people closest to them - mostly family and bluetooth speaker and the song for luci to walk down the invisible isle queue up on spotify. his father had gotten ordained to perform the ceremony and they each had their witness to sign the marriage licence. afterwards the reception would just be at the ortega family home, catered by a local restaurant ray and luci had come to love.
when ray's mother started to play the song, his father gave him a gentle nudge, causing ray to instantly look up and to where luci was as she began walking towards him. once she reached him, ray took her hands in his own, beaming from ear to ear. "you look absolutely radiant," ray said, not caring enough to whisper. "you ready to do this? last chance to back out," he joked. (@lucianabxlla)

favourite outfits? and who isn't showing enough skin?
not judging ball looks yet, but i will say i am DELIGHTED to see so many tits out looks ( • )( • ) #freethenip
gotta shout out out @lucianabxlla, @loladebelgique, @nikelykke (but only parade night 2) , @aalayncs for surprising us with some HOT looks.🔥🔥🔥 but @hshmimi, @inescroy, and @swababy stole the show!! 🥵 of course, hostess @vitoriadobrasil upheld brazilian pride with her parade outfits too.
among the gentleman, i unfortunately have to say that @jclvni and @petrosoletsky did in fact catch my eye 👀
sadly @fvmikc clearly didn't understand the assignment (even our favorite encapsulation of the madonna-whore complex *cough* fanni *cough* showed MORE skin) and @lconor could definitely stand to show a little more. i'm actually more disappointed by @isvbclv -- this dress code seemed TOTALLY up her alley and her looks are somehow....boring 🙃🙃🙃

“ oh, WAIT UP – ” she called out to luci, just before she stepped outside of the complex. “ are you busy ? i was planning on getting desserts from a shop nearby. “ if you want to come, was implied. “ i heard about your mother ... ” she added, almost as an afterthought. natalia couldn’t say much more than offer condolences.

It was probably some sort of pity invitation from Luciana to go shopping and go to bakeries. It wasn’t rocket science to figure out that Cecilia was torn up over Rowen’s departure and still recovering from the earthquake, as well as the fast relocation that had to happen, considering the hotel’s current state. After everything, she had practically shut down. She had gone numb and simply went through the days as scheduled. But finding joy, or any interest in something, was currently impossible.
Cecilia could hear Luciana speaking, about what she had no idea. They were in the bakery, previously agreeing to snack on pastries on the way to the shopping centers. And then there was that awkward pause and she started to wonder if the other had asked a question or fell silent in realization that the Enlgish princess simply wasn’t listening. She found the first thing she laid eyes on and decided that was going to be her saving grace--hopefully. “Yeah, it’s a really pink cake. Lots of strawberries on it, so at least it’s healthy...sorta.” Please tell me that’s what you said.

- ‘ I THINK you dropped this. ’ it took him a couple of days to be able to recognise a face again. consequences of the trauma, the doctors said. normal even though he was having a speed recovery --- which felt like everything but. even then, after a couple weeks, ilija still needed a couple seconds before he could associate a face to a name and then to memories. ‘ luci ?! ’ / @lucianabxlla

“ have you heard anything from sav since he got back ? ” needless to say he misses his brother. after spending so long with all of them in one place, having one of them go back home makes the void feel emptier. it makes it even worse that they’re no longer living together, but ale will never voice those words. “ saying that, i haven’t heard much from any of you since we came here. are you doing good ? ” @lucianabxlla

“ luciana, look! aren’t these matching rings super cool? ” with a wave of her hand, arielle invited the other to take a look through the glass window. she had mixed feelings about vintage jewelry, it was rare for something that’s not worth way too much than one could usually afford to catch her eye, but there was something about these rings that made her stop and stare.

lily quite disliked the maintenance she had to perform to keep up this relationship with italy. “ so what is it that YOU do ? “ lily inquires, using her fork push around items on her plate. “ if you don’t mind me asking. i hear one of your brothers is somewhat of a genius, the other a decorated veteran ? “ she tilts her head for an answer. if it was anything like her family, they all had a talent. “ and you ? “

“ ah LUCI ! you’re a girl, and you have their best interests at heart right ? “ he sits next to her at whatever family shindig barbie had in store this week, after his first phrase his tone lowers. everyone was nosy enough. “ if you were to be taken on a date here, where would you want to go ? just, out of pure curiosity. “

Which savoybraganca will be the last to get married, and why?
LUCIANA — hopefully. do you know why ? she wants LOVE. hopefully giovanni won’t be playing a matchmaker and will let our princess find her knight in a shining armor. love ain’t easy to find and let’s be honest, she’s ITALIAN, she is not going to settle for some boring man who uses a two-in-one shampoo and shower gel product.

the brush of brown hair at her hip was a shock, though she couldn’t help but smile when she looked down. when was the last time an italian looked at her with such fond eyes ? “ GOODNESS, noe ... you’ve gotten tall ! “ there once was a time natalia would squat to speak at noemi’s eye level, now it only required a slight bend in her hip. she pushed a lock of hair behind the girl’s ear and looked up, kids have a funny way of bringing people together. “ happy birthday. “ they were allowed a two day truce, no ? “ i don’t have a gift for you, if i’m being honest. “ nothing material ever seemed quite right. “ how would you feel about a day at the SPA ?? noe included. “
