Know for Phillipa?

thank you!! // oc asks: relationship edition

Know: How well does your OC know themself—their wants, their goals, their motivations? Do they engage in any sort of self-reflection? Is there anything about themself they willfully ignore?

Phillipa — she’s in that in-between space where she’s generally pretty self-aware but currently trying not to think too hard about anything because everything hurts and she needs to be focused and present and that means not letting herself get lost in her own head. she's very good at knowing what her goals should be (make a strong match, get married, look out for her siblings and lady lillian and everyone else around her). she's a little less good at acknowledging where those goals stray from what she really wants (to be happy, to trust someone else to help her, to just be very horribly sad in peace for a while).

yummy yummy ask meme

for good, for bad, mentor, fate, annnd. future! for phillipa, daichi, and a third of your choice 💕

thank youuuu my dear I will of course add minah to this roster // oc asks: relationship edition

For Good: Is there anyone in your OC's life who had an undeniable positive impact on who they are as a person? How did knowing this person improve your OC's life?

Phillipa — honestly most of the people in her life so far have reinforced the constraints of society in ways that aren’t necessarily bad for her but haven’t made her better as a person or measurably improved her quality of life. the closest anyone comes is her friend lady christina kingsley-merriwether who has been a stalwart friend and ally and who pippa cares for deeply. that said, there are a few people she’s hanging out with right now that might really change how she lives her life!

Dai — harrowing though their relationship has been, it’s izzy. she took a sledgehammer to a lot of his carefully constructed way of living which was a net positive for him as a person. and zaref and the rest of the party obviously but izzy getting under his skin made him reconsider things he’d never stopped to think about. he owes a lot of his growth to her being an absolute gremlin

Minah — absolutely 100% it’s Alesso diMar, Maestro of the Orchestra Volare, her dear friend and teacher for many many years. the orchestra saved her life, literally and figuratively; everything she knows she studied there and they also gave her a reason to live again when she was terrified and starving and being hunted by mercenaries. minah vo literally wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for alesso dimar and his orchestra.

For Bad: Is there anyone who had an undeniable negative impact on your OC’s life? How did your OC deal with that change? Have they been able to move on?

Phillipa — her ex-fiancée imogen mcallister who dumped her by letter like 48 hours before getting back in town from the war she was off fighting in for five years. they were friends before they were engaged and phillipa still has feelings. everyone is telling phillipa to get up and she’s not sure she wants to. moving on is the next big step in her life but it’s hard :(

Dai — there have been a few enemies that weren’t great but gold medal has to go to the traveller, not only for the fucked up enemy god stuff but also for making ozy like that(TM). kicking this shit out of him in the astral sea was pretty cathartic. and ozy’s like 50% less annoying now so overall everyone’s come out of the situation better off

Minah — the obvious and easy answer here is elias este who plotted and planned and set events into motion that ended with her fiancé executing her father and minah on the run. she didn’t look back until it was far too late to change anything. she has absolutely not moved on; she's got an arrow with his name on it

#ty!!#sorry this took one william years u know how it is sometimes #have I mentioned that minah loves the orchestra and also so do I. anyway.#memery #phillipa #minah #daichi

Shout-out to characters who don't plan to survive their stories! Heroes who think they can only atone for their failures through sacrifice, villains who don't think they deserve to live in the world they're trying to create. Gimme that passive suicidality baby, mm-mm, delicious.

Daily affirmations

I am a freak and that is ok

Anyone who hates on me for my writing has never picked up a pencil in their life

I should be more self indulgent

My characters should suffer more

like the betrayal’s always going to be worse if they cared about you and it didn’t matter. someone discards you because they didn’t give a shit, then you can be angry about that, you can feel vindicated in that, you can get over it. but if they can look you in the eyes and say “I love you. I would make the same choice again.” You will never sleep peacefully again, is all.

“I thought they cared about me, but they were lying this whole time.” <- tired. boring. removes all the nuance of this relationship to make it easier to move on from.

“I thought they cared about me, and I was right, and every minute they were there for me, every time they said they were proud, every laugh we shared leaning against each other bruised and breathless, all of it was real. and they still left me behind. They could put their love aside. I couldn’t.” <- insane. will never leave you alone. reminds you that even the worst people are still people and can still care about even the ones they hurt the most and that undoes neither the harm nor the love.

absolutely fucking insane good society session i feel CRAZY

lillian going out for tea with gil (notorious rake, francis' "rival" and soon-to-be knight captain) with only her maid as chaperone, and the rumour mill spinning it wildly out of proportion

lillian following this up by going riding (unchaperoned) with ser percival (a "poor match" for her), falling off her horse and being escorted back to town covered in twigs on percival's horse

francis being in a great deal of pain after riding in the parade, trying to withdraw quietly and gil instead following him to help him dismount AND THEN getting on one knee to remove francis' armour so his leg would have some relief. i'm normal 👍

francis trying to ward lillian off gil and instead being told that he's a terrible chaperone and not worth listening to (deserved)

francis cornering gil at the ball, confronting him about the lillian rumours and telling him to stay the fuck away from his cousin. gil assuring francis he only intends friendship with lillian because his affections are "otherwise occupied" (kill me)

phillipa's ex-fiancée imogen making several passes at lillian, despite phillipa being a.) right there and b.) close with lillian

phillipa running into duchess lucienne as they both sought refuge from the party and spending an improper amount of time alone with her...in a shadowy hallway standing a little too close together...

lillian being sad about percival's sudden distance and hearing from a friend that he's wary of the gil/lillian rumours and doesn't want to pursue something that isn't serious on her end

francis and phillipa both being subjected to the whims of a party game and being made to dance with gil and imogen respectively, while everyone whispered about the Drama 💀

phillipa quietly asking imogen if she's happier now (after breaking off the engagement) and imogen pausing before saying "yes"

cityandking

phillipa who is focusing all her effort and attention on taking care of lillian and the montgomery family and her siblings and even ser francis because if she stops to really properly think about her own situation for longer than two seconds she's going to collapse like a house made of playing cards in a stiff breeze

cityandking

phillipa who genuinely enjoys socializing but has few friends despite all her many acquaintances and is now holding herself to the most rigid of social standards and performing all her relationships correctly but with only the barest true emotion or passion because she simply cannot let herself feel anything genuine or she will turn into sea foam

cityandking

phillipa who is so sad she can't even acknowledge it because to acknowledge it would make it real and she simply doesn't have time to feel sorry for herself when so much hangs in the balance so she'll keep dragging herself out of bed every morning and smiling with all the grace she can muster
