@priesm : “it is growing dark.” || THE CHILDREN OF HÚRIN STARTERS.
❝ oh dear me … ❞ the young woman looked up towards the heavens, wondering how time managed to pass by so quickly. she always loved striking up a conversation with bright souls & this girl was among the most sparkling. her fluency in japanese finally paid off ! a smile grew wider on her lovely visage, tightening her hold on the bouquet of roses in her arms. perhaps this meeting was fated … her first week in this country too. ❝ what a blessed day this has been! i've met a new friend already!❞ she stepped forward & pressed her rose-red lips to the soft pallor of usagi's cheek.
❝ may we meet again soon, my darling ! i've gotta go now … my boyfriend is waiting for me. ❞
@glamwish : “where else is hope?” || THE CHILDREN OF HÚRIN STARTERS.
❝ in love … ❞ seraphic features belies a solemn heart, one that bled in sympathy for the young girl before her. bereft of home & confused beyond belief … a hand reached out to caress strawberry-rose-colored tresses affectionately. a pang of maternal concern ached in aurora's golden heart & it wanted to ease nikki's anxieties in whatever way she could. ❝ believe in love … there are good people here who want to see you home. & I am one of them … ❞ she will hold the girl in her heart for as long as she can.
aurora is typically associated with blue & pink ... but i feel she represents lilac or a soft purple. i like to incorporate this color scheme because of the existence of the lilac fairy in the ballet, who was essentially the queen of faeries & leader. given that my interpretation has rose being considered a successor to a "titania"-like figure ... i think it is only fitting.
the lilac fairy is the leader of fairies similar to the ballet & in a disney verse, she would be the antithesis to maleficient's evil & the one who sent flora, fauna & merryweather to bless aurora as she could not attend.
maleficent's true name is carabosse, based on the wicked fairy's name in the ballet. maleficient seems more of a name bestowed onto her by the people or title given because she is "the mistress of all evil" — i refuse to take into account her film where she was always maleficent.
rose is famed for her incredible beauty & kindness. this has led to many an admirer, which include famous painters, sculptors & more wishing to capture her loveliness on canvas or stone. the impressive volume of people wishing to sketch or mold her visage became so overwhelming, there was a halt to the services in the castle … only if the queen allowed it, would they be given the chance. this is a subject of much discomfort for aurora & philip / her husband,
the sun's rays beamed through the window, casting a glow onto her golden hair as aurora sat at the table. a display of sweets, tea & little sandwiches were arranged tastefully. with a soft smile, she gestured towards the treats, wanting her guest to feel as comfortable as possible. ❝ relax, dear & eat with me … there is much to discuss ! ❞ the queen paused to pour a cup of tea, the aroma of crisp apples & cinnamon wafting the area. ❝ how is your kingdom fairing? your sister? ❞ a kindness bled openly from her honeyed voice.
with a sweet, melting sigh … the maiden stretched languidly, a dreamy smile playing on rose-red lips. elegant fingers reached over into the basket & plucked a berry to pop in her mouth, its rich flavor bursting onto her tongue. there was a soft breeze, wind gliding across fields of green as she & belle sat on a comfortable blanket. ❝ i could stay here forever, couldn't you? ❞ aurora said to the brunette, another sigh escaping. ❝ but alas, the stuffiness of the palace awaits us in the evening … ❞
