❧ “In the darkness of the mystery which surrounds the fate of these innocent children it is with poignant emotion that I recall them as they appeared, so full of life and joy, in those distant, yet incredibly near, days before the World War and the downfall of Imperial Russia.”

❧ “Olga was perhaps the cleverest of them all, her mind being so quick to grasp ideas, so absorbent of knowledge that she learned almost without application or close study. Her chief characteristics, I should say, were a strong will and a singularly straightfor, ward habit of thought and action.”

❧ “Tatiana was almost a perfect reincarnation of her mother. Taller and slenderer than her sisters, she had the soft, refined features and the gentle, reserved manners of her English ancestry. Kindly and sympathetic of disposition, she displayed towards her younger sisters and her brother such a protecting spirit that they, in fun, nicknamed her "the governess."

❧ “Marie had splendid eyes and rose-red cheeks. She was inclined to be stout and she had rather thick lips which detracted a little from her beauty. Marie had a naturally sweet disposition and a very good mind.”

❧ “Anastasia, a sharp and clever child, was a very monkey for jokes, some of them at times almost too practical for the enjoyment of others. I remember once when the family was in their Polish estate in winter the children were amusing themselves at snowballing. The imp which sometimes seemed to possess Anastasia led her to throw a stone rolled in a snowball straight at her dearly loved sister Tatiana. The missile struck the poor girl fairly in the face with such force that she fell senseless to the ground. The grief and horror of Anastasia lasted for many days and permanently cured her of her worst propensities to practical jokes.”

- Anna Vyrubova (friend and personal confidante of Empress Alexandra Feodorovna)

omg possessive!reader is so me

imagine when Valeria finds out your possessive tho

you’re at the club with Valeria, just trying to have a nice night together and dance when guys keep trying to dance with you. they’re coming up behind you, trying to grab your hips and grind on your ass.. but you know Valeria’s not having it. it’s bothering her so much she’s threatening the guys with a knife..

and then it happens, as it always does. one stupid guy from out of town who hasn’t heard how dangerous she is tries to dance on her. she’s about to shove the knife into his throat when she sees you.. and oh the look on your face makes her stop. the most poisonous glare on your face as you tear off one of your heels, storming up to the guy and threatening him, spanish curses falling fast from your lips like venom.. but she can’t even hear you. she’s so caught off guard by your behavior, how fast you moved to defend her.. and how beautiful you look doing it.

let’s just say you were in for a treat tonight :3

-💗

once again, i've been dethroned by 💗 anon,, so i'm just gonna put these pics here as a visual for this scenario ;)

valeria in the club with you:

Hi Rose 🤍 My baby fever is off the charts rn!!! So can I get a hc of any of the RE characters as a baby/toddler in a daycare pls?

Ps: Ik I said any but Chris fs was a FAT baby and Leon was a mama’s boy (thinking about that one audio rn and im sobbing 🥹)

⦑ 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐄𝐯𝐢𝐥 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐬 𝐓𝐨𝐝𝐝𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐃𝐚𝐲𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 ⦒

characters: leon s. kennedy, ashley graham, ethan winters, ada wong, chris redfield, claire redfield, carlos oliveira a/n: thank you maya for requesting bby!! my queen!!! also look at me getting too into this, i love these characters so so much! check out re character's reaction & their s/o's dog ! « masterlist┇reblogs appreciated! »

LEON S. KENNEDY

You are right! He is a mama's boy!!

On his first few weeks of daycare, Leon would cry the longest every time he's been dropped off.

Has a hard time adjusting to daycare, but gets used to it after making a few friends (notably chris & luis)!

He is always telling his friends and teachers in daycare about how his mama did this... mama did that... Leon is super proud of her.

Also Leon's the kind of kid who plays with cars, crashes them together and starts clapping (Not much different from the present)

ASHLEY GRAHAM

Teacher's pet just because she's always respectful, and sharing toys with her classmates.

Oftentimes, kids take advantage of that and take her toys.

Because of that, I think she's often neglected by her teachers since the other troublemaker kids need more attention, so to speak.

She would be friends with Claire as Claire would not hesitate to snitch on other kid's bad behaviour to the teacher.

Ashley loves little Sylvanian Families and play-doh - I see this developing into a slime making hobby as an adult!

ETHAN WINTERS

I'm getting the quiet, nerdy kid vibe for Ethan.

Toddler Ethan loves to collect trading cards, he doesn't necessarily know how to play the game, he just likes the glossy look of them.

I feel like he'll have trouble making friends in class because they don't understand what the cards mean to him.

Poor kid just wants someone to talk about Pokemon with.

Gets very excited about dinosaurs and will play the game "Who can name the most dinosaurs?" knowing he'll always win.

ADA WONG

Don't mess with Ada, or she'll have you regret it.

Even as a toddler, she would always get her way. Always be the first on swings.

Ada, even as a kid, enjoys her solitude and hates for that to be broken. She enjoys playing LEGO uninterrupted.

I can see her hating loud kids like Chris (And that's totally not because Chris trampled her LEGO town one time and she'd held that grudge for life)

Younger Ada teaches the other kids bad words, but somehow she is never caught, and never gotten in trouble.

CHRIS REDFIELD

Fat baby (he's just built this way)

'Accidentally' steals Claire's NERF guns, and feigns ignorance when he's confronted.

Big troublemaker at daycare. Teachers are always chasing him down but toddler Chris runs really fast.

100% Captain America enthusiast. He admires the act of serving his country, and that lead him to choose a career in military.

NERFs guns for life - I see him messing around and shooting the dart at other kids (especially Claire, usually to get back at her for snitching on him to mum)

CLAIRE REDFIELD

Younger Claire, who also inherited the Redfield attitude, takes no shit from anyone.

If Chris shoves her, Claire would shove back. And that may have resulted in a lot of sibling fights.

Strong believer of justice - Will pick fights with anyone, even big kids and adults, if she sees injustice.

Brutally honest kid - when someone asks for a compliment, she would say "That shirt makes you look fat" without batting an eye.

Alike Chris, she loves NERF guns (they often like the same guns, so it almost always turns into a brawl at the toy section)

CARLOS OLIVEIRA

Carlos, is the number one reason of all teacher's migraines in his daycare.

He is the class clown, so anything he says gets a reaction from the other kids in class (often disrupting them)

So the moment Carlos speaks (he is still focusing on whatever he's doing), the class erupts in laughter.

Toddler Carlos is the kid who mashes the music button on a toy repeatedly. A cheeky smile on his face, very entertained by it.

Also I see toddler Carlos on the trampoline a lot, often trying to jump as high as he can. Even though he is most definitely too young to be on the trampoline.

我的生活走在成長的軌跡 它超越了世上的事物 也許我永遠無法實現最後的目標 但這將是我的企圖心 我圍繞著上帝，圍繞著古塔 而我已經繞了一千年 我仍然不知我是獵鷹 還是風暴 或者一首很了不起的歌

I live my life in growing orbits Which move out over the things of the world. Perhaps I can never achieve the last, But that will be my attempt. I am circling around God, around the ancient tower, And I have been circling for a thousand years, And I still don’t know if I am a falcon, or a storm, Or a great song.

Hello!

Saw this just now, so ignore it if you don't feel like it anymore, but...

👾

Thank you Arja!! 💗

For Maria from Ashes on Your Eyes by Deb Talan:

So much of Hawke's story is losing it all and then having to start all over again somewhere else. I think it does remind me of a phoenix in so many ways. Maria in particular is someone I associate so strongly with fire and ashes, so this song really calls to that imagery. And the idea of not only facing beginning again, but doing so alone? That is something that she fears so much she almost makes it happen more than once.

omg that tiktok of Maria- the hot pink nails are real now and I love them sm

just adds a depth to her character- even though she’s so strong and in a job that’s usually really restrictive to women, she’s still in touch with her femininity

and I feel like that shows that she’s a small gesture kinda lady; no big proclamations of love, but she remembers the small things and surprises you with gifts and trinkets

-💗

the nails are like a cherry on top to an excellently written female antagonist. chefs kiss and all, i FUCKING LOVE the small additions of valeria's femininity.

she dresses masculinely, was in a male-dominated field (and still is? cartels aren't exactly girlboss central) -- but still has bits and pieces of an "average" young woman <3

[lilianrouge]

Hello there!

Hope your day is gonna be great! :D

In the meanwhile...

Agape - 3 for Elowen and Arianwen (for the Wen-s)

Ludus - 4 for Emmaera and Salshira

Philautia - 5 for Maria

(as per usual, feel free to skip any!)

Thank you, Arja! I hope so too. We have grocery shopping on the roster for today, but for now I am enjoying my coffee and a scone c:

(7 Forms of Love Asks)

Agape 3: (for the -wens) To what extent does your OC believe in the value (or even existence) of true altruism? Do they see an unselfish concern for the welfare of others as being naïve or foolish? Or as a moral quality to which people should aspire?

Arianwen: Doesn't believe in true altruism. Sounds like the kind of thing the Chantry tells people they should aspire do while contributing almost nothing to the material well-being of the people they're supposed to take care of.

She does believe that community is built with networks of concern and care for others---but she also knows firsthand what it is to be on the outskirts of that, to watch it from the outside with your hands pressed to the cold glass of the window. There are people left out of every community and anyone who says otherwise is lying or trying to get something from you. But she does believe in protecting the innocent--it's just that her definition of innocent is pretty narrow, comparatively.

Elowen: Absolutely believes in altruism. Would destroy herself to save the world gladly, would give of herself until there was nothing left to protect the people around her. She thinks the world would be a fundamentally better place if people considered the feelings and beliefs of others before acting because that is her default. She was raised to always put others first, to think of how and why they might be acting the way they're acting, and it's a difficult skill to turn off now. Trying to understand and care about everyone around her is an immense amount of pressure to put on herself and she often struggles under the weight of it.

Ludus 4: Who was your OC's first crush? How do they feel about it now?

Emmaera: One spring, the clan camped near a human city. There was a city elf boy who would sneak into the woods and watch them. Emma was young--maybe thirteen or fourteen--and irrepressibly curious. She would creep off from her studies to ask him questions about what cities are like, and he would ask her about what being Dalish is like.

Eventually, she realized she was just as fascinated to learn more about him as she was to learn about cities. He was her first kiss--though, sadly, the clan had to move on and they left him behind. She still thinks fondly about the boy, though a lot of the particulars of those memories have faded.

(for his part, the boy ran off to join the Dalish as soon as he was old enough to make it. He never found Clan Lavellan again, but I think he was happy nonetheless)

Salshira: Oh, boy. Salshira's first crush was later than most because she never had any interest in anyone else in her clan. She experienced her first crush at an Arlathven when she was seventeen/eighteen and it went horribly. They snuck off to fool around in the trees and he was awful to her (he told her she was disgusting).

It was the first and last time she had any interest in another Dalish elf and the experience was so traumatic that it took her a decade to be emotionally vulnerable like that again. If she saw that guy again, she'd probably act entirely contrary to the rest of her personality and punch him in the face. Or light his hair on fire.

Philautia 5: Has your OC always had the same opinion of themselves or has this changed over time? Have they learned to love themselves - perhaps with the help of others - as their journey progressed? Or have the consequences of their actions only served to erode their sense of self-worth?

Maria: Maria generally has a good opinion of herself, but that takes a really sharp dip beginning after Leandra's death. Gamlen's comment ("Why couldn't you just be normal like your brother?") really, really impacts her. In the immediate aftermath, she very seriously considers turning herself over to the Templars and asking for Tranquility. It seems like the right thing to do in her grief (what if she becomes like the mage who killed her mother? What if she really is a danger to everyone around her?), but Orana overhears her discussing it with the lawyer and it's a whole Thing. Choosing to duel the Arishok is also an extension (and the conclusion) of this self-destructive streak. Afterward, her friends are so invested in seeing her well again that she realizes how much she still has to lose, how loved she really is.

It never gets quite that bad again, but there are peaks and valleys for sure. At her core, Maria cares deeply about the well-being of other people, especially the ones she loves. She doesn't know how to stop trying to take care of other people; it's a core part of her character. When she feels she is doing a poor job of it, she really struggles to see herself as worthy or good.
