❝ things are very different here. ❞   it’s not a bad thing, nor does she mean it as such. she’s adaptable. she’ll get used to her new surroundings; she’ll even get used to these rounds of questioning. elsie doesn’t mind sharing her story with this author, particularly not since she partially owes her safety to the woman. she finds this house a comforting little island in this very strange country.   ❝ stricter, in ways, and gentler in others. ❞

❝ your kingdom is beautiful. ❞   and hidden, which is why she’s here. the princess has needed somewhere to shelter from the tastonis, hunting her and her siblings across the world.   ❝ i haven’t yet gotten the chance to tell you that, or how grateful i am for the sanctuary you’ve given us. one day i hope that we can repay that kindness. ❞

❝ i’m grateful to you. ❞   safe refuge... it’s a pretty difficult thing to find these day. elsie knows how dangerous it is for anyone to get involved with the force sensitive or known fugitives; it’s even more dangerous to involve yourself with someone that’s both. she hasn’t seen the surface of her planet in years. she hasn’t seen her family, either. doesn’t know if they’re safe. all she knows is that she must trust this woman, and stay in this safe house, for a little while longer.   ❝ it’s brave, what you’ve done. what you’re doing. ❞

❝ i thought perhaps you needed...  well, a girl’s night, i suppose. ❞   the woman that had arrived with the doctor seems to be the sort of woman that expects to be overlooked. it’s a shame. she’s got enough presence and spirit that it’s almost hard to tell which of them is actually in charge. elsie sits across from her and pushes a mug of something fruity in her direction. the liquid is opaque, green, and faintly glowing; it’s familiar and comforting to her, and she has no idea how alien it must seem to donna.   ❝ i understand you’re from earth? ❞

❝ for what its worth,  i think you’re a lot tougher than any of them give you credit for. ❞   elsie knows a thing or two about that kind of strength. she really wishes she didn’t. nobody ever tells you about the things you have to go through to become strong like that.   ❝ that makes you dangerous. ❞

❝ you are never going to say that to me again. ❞   striking him, him of all people, seems like the worst possible idea but elsie surprises herself in how quickly she does so... and how little fear she feels regarding it. there’s this knowledge that she’s much more dangerous to him than he is to her  ( despite the fact that she would never harm him... beyond the right hook she’s just landed, anyways )  that gives her a rare sort of confidence.

❝ hello, doctor. ❞   she doesn’t hold the stern expression on her face for very long. he’s been escorted here by armed guard, with no explanation, and she doesn’t want him to stay alarmed - even if it’s a  little amusing  at the very start. the last time she’d seen him, he’d been flying off in that strange ship of his. no goodbye. it didn’t seem as if he liked goodbyes, or endings, even if they’re happy ones. his intervention saved her planet; he left her an exile with an uncertain but promising future, and now he returns to find her seated on the throne. what must be going through his mind? elsie smiles, removes the crown from her head, and stands to descend the steps towards him.   ❝ i’m sorry. when i was told your box had been spotted in the market, i had to be sure it was really you. ❞

you don’t always have to put on a brave face. / sansa        ♡        @roseguided​.

❝ i’m afraid that’s simply not true.  women like us, we always have to put on a brave face. ❞   but gods, how she wishes this wasn’t the case. elsie doesn’t feel even a fraction as brave as she tries to make herself seem, and it’s tiring to face up to things that terrify her so completely. she’ll keep doing it; she’ll protect her family no matter what. when they arrived on these shores, distant and strange, they could never have imagined what would be waiting for them. in seeking safety, they’d arrived in the middle of even more conflict than they’d faced in their own land. the centuries old network they had been following across the sea had largely been dismantled  ( unwittingly )  by the upheaval here in westeros. the scatterflows had been incredibly fortunate to be discovered by this family, the starks; to be allowed within their walls, on the condition they provide assistance however they can. not that they had many options... but they hadn’t really minded.   ❝ yours is quite fierce. like your dire wolves. ❞

[fivecrowned]

i can give you the means to protect them. / dany        ♡        @roseguided​.

the offer takes her completely by surprise.  daenerys has never shown an inclination towards it before, though certainly not because she doesn’t care. the queen has a lot of responsibility, to her own people. taking an interest in the problems of a land far from these shores, one she’s likely never to see, one most of the people she’s encountered have never seen either... that’s unusual. it isn’t that elsie doesn’t appreciate the gravity of her offer. it isn’t that she isn’t tempted to accept. she has a sense that this might come with strings attached. this might mean the dragon queen would hope for their help in her own fight first. it would be a completely fair expectation, should she make this deal. but she can’t. at the very least, not without consulting her siblings, particularly flynn.  he’s the heir.  not her.   ❝ your grace, i... i don’t think we can wait that long. we are going to have to leave for our shores again very soon, and you can’t spare your own men. you are going to need them. ❞   but she dares a step slightly closer, feeling like she and dany have grown to be on more equal footing as time has gone on. powers in their own right.   ❝ but i wish you swift winds, and swifter victory. ❞

sometimes people go and they don’t come back.        ♡        @lokadottr​.

❝ not her.  not ashea. she’s going to come back. ❞   elsie understands what torvi is saying; she knows already. she remembers the last time she saw her parents. she remembers when she learned they’d been killed, that she’d never see them again. it won’t be the case with her sister. she absolutely refuses to allow herself that thought process. she won’t even give that a chance to manifest into reality. she’d been reluctant to even set foot on the ship that would eventually carry them here - she hadn’t wanted to leave ashea behind. but they have no way of knowing where she is, only that she escaped the soldiers that murdered their father. she must be somewhere in those northern mountains, hiding.   ❝ or we’re going to go back and find her ourselves. ❞

critical role sentence starters !!!

so… we’ll talk later.

why won’t you stay down and die with dignity?

no. no further.

this is not over. it can’t be.

try not to have too much fun without us.

i have this blink candle. it’s formed from various animals that blink.

it’s so rare that we’re actually given the opportunity to be honest about everything. we might as well try it once and see if we like it.

you know i’m in love with you, right?

you seem… like a person. and that’s great.

those are coins! you’re not making it rain, you’re making it hail!

i’m killing someone, hold please.

your secret is safe with my indifference.

my heart is someone else’s.

do not go far from me. if we are out of earshot, you are too far from me.

um, i don’t know if it’s the food you made or the fact that we’re going to die tomorrow, but i want to kiss you.

i was all kinds of fucked up a few weeks ago.

you’re all kinds of fucked up all the time. we all are. and that’s why we’re together.

i just want to let you know… i am possibly the worst person you’ve ever met.

i think i kind of hope… not necessarily to hurt you or harm you, but i hope that one day… that you can know just how awful i can be.

you can curse, it’s okay. you killed one of us.

i think i’ve always been in love with the idea of you.

i was only gone for thirty seconds!

i encourage violence.

i can give you the means to protect them.

i do not want to die who i am. i’d like to live long enough to be someone else.

you’re on your own, fuckface.

a volcano is - is nature’s candle!

sometimes people go and they don’t come back.

do you spice?

so we’re going to kill everyone that we see in the next ten seconds.

i don’t want to be here if you’re not.

i told you before. no one kills you but me.

he traded his life!

i don’t have very many things that i care about and i don’t have anything that cares about me.

i’m great! well, not really, but i’m just going to pretend i’m happy so everybody can be okay!

i’ve been in a barrel for an hour. i fell asleep in there!

yes. i heard. it was the only thing i heard.

don’t cry. i’m just a little cold.

i bury my shame.

i should have told you. it’s yours.

forgiveness - that’s the key, isn’t it? it’s the only way to really grow.

your hair’s a mess. sit still.

you are my heart. you are me. you are my other half. you are welcome with me always.

you don’t always have to put on a brave face, dear.

we’re friends, right? are we friends?

i know we don’t always agree and i know i can be unkind, but… you know you’re family, right?

i’ve had a terrible thought. and it is sort of my business to have terrible thoughts.

take me instead.

we walk towards glory.

that’s mine! that’s mine!

did it choose me because i was broken, or did it break me?

please bring him back to me.

you think you care about me?

this was always supposed to happen, wasn’t it?

i love you. if i can find you, i will. if not, stay alive.

if he’s gone i won’t be the same.

i’d watch your moral panic all day, it’s delightful.

in many ways you are my total opposite. but you are also my best friend.

i made a choice. this is my family.

i forgive you. but i cannot let you leave.

please. please. i love him as much as you do.

fix him. fix him!

i like this family. i’d like to keep it.

i want you to know that you are like a brother to me.

talk about my sister again.

it’s been a while since we’ve had one of our depressing chats!

i can’t have you gone. i need you here.

i think we’re very broken people. but i think together we’re much greater than the sum of our parts.

don’t ever fucking do that again.

you didn’t die. but you did! but you didn’t. but you did! and then you didn’t.

i don’t want any of this! i don’t want any of this.

i’ve just had a near death experience and i’m craving some lasagna. 

you know, you’re getting weirder.

you and i are very different.

i’ve killed two of those who’ve wronged me and nothing is better. nothing feels better. nothing is avenged.

call me “child” one more goddamn time!

if you’re lucky, you die last.

some people have no sense of fucking honor!

i’ll take my clothes off if it’ll inspire us.

thank you for believing in me.

you’ve never done anything for me! never! you’ve never risked anything, you don’t know me!

everyone else believes in you. why shouldn’t you?

how many fingers am i holding up?

what’s the first letter of the alphabet? this you know.

yay! teamwork!

you fucking died!

don’t touch me right now! i’m not - don’t touch me!

i’m going to go get a sandwich.

you had us all very worried.

your reckless impulses will get you killed!

i’m done with gods. they will not help me. perhaps you will. 

this is too fucking much.

come here, you shithead.

it has been an honor.

screw you! i want my final words with you to be indignant and irritated.

you’re the face i saw when murder entered my heart.

i’m undecided about you.

never forget you’re my favorite. and i’m so sorry.

i’m not leaving him.

you’re a better man than you believe.

feel like making a home here?

you’re an idiot and i’m very proud of you. don’t do that again.

sound off if you’re alive.

it’s not going to work.

❝ how long will we be staying here? ❞   elsie’s anxious about the whole thing. it’s not even really so much the ordeal, the risk; she’s had no hand in the process whatsoever. it had all been arranged by someone else, quite a lot of it having been prepared long before anything had even happened.  this is the twenty first century.  things weren’t supposed to slide backwards this dramatically, this swiftly. maybe she’s naive for thinking that. the little venetian apartment is small but pleasant, just splashed with sunshine through the windows. it reminds her of university, a time she’d been immensely happy. that’s helping to abate the worst of the tension in her, for now. as long as she thinks about how comfortable this place is, she won’t need to be scared. and besides, she’s not alone, and his entire job is to keep her safe.

𝐌𝐎𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐍 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐄.

meles is a european constitutional monarchy, currently going through a crisis of government. just enough of the world’s underbelly has opened up for things to get incredibly dangerous. the displaced government, including the monarch’s family, is in the line of fire and must attempt to escape. the siblings have split into their groups, and elsie and her brother flynn have been granted sanctuary in italy, where they live in hiding with an venetian artist. they’ve been there long enough for elsie to begin establishing herself, settling into their new identities as brightmores. she knows it can’t last forever, but she’s getting to explore who she is beyond her responsibilities and her privileges, and that feels very good. optional inclusion of her magic, if we wanna take it urban fantasy.
