STARTER CALL FOR LUISA DE MEDICI, DAUGHTER OF LORENZO THE MAGNIFICENT & CLARICE ORSINI !!
Alessandro Farnese with his children | requested by anonymous
MEDICI - 3.03 // 3.04 inverse colour outfits
you know what i miss all my disney muses
i’m super nauseous on the train with a killer headache and i’m still an hour away from home 🙃🙃
anyway i love adele too much so i moved her to her own blog @musketeerloved
msktfired:
“ be careful with your plans. for the cardinal has many spies who could get to you before you exact whatever revenge you are thinking of. ” he must be on guard for the both of them. for if she has returned when she wasn’t meant to then richelieu will come for her. will attempt to silence her with his usual tact of a dagger in the ribs or poison in the wine. hopefully, the man would let her live in peace especially with the whispers of his ailing health that were bouncing off every wall in the palace.
without context he will not act. for a musketeer did not go blindly into danger without some idea of where they are going. even when he found out about savoy he had some guidance in marsac. “ as you wish. but do let me know if danger is afoot. for that is where i do my best work besides by your side in the bedroom. ” his comment comes with a rakish grin that makes his eyes twinkle. “ i will be here for you after. for every night after. i have missed you so much. when i found out you had left i…must admit i did get quite maudlin. ”
it seemed impossible to not love him, with all he was willing to do for her and how he loved her still, despite her disappearing on him. her life would no doubt have never felt complete had she not met him, like a piece missing that she did not know about. “ they will not come. ” it must confuse him why she sounded so certain of that, but no one would be willing to admit to richelieu her ‘body’ had disappeared. it meant signing their own death warrant.
it couldn’t be helped when a soft laugh escaped her lips, shaking her head slightly at his words. it had been too long since adele had laughed but it made sense it was him who drew it out of her at last. aramis always seemed to bring out things in her no one else could. “ you should have moved on. to someone better. someone worthy. ” how could she deserve any of his love when she had left him without word for so long? even given the circumstances, adele had had more than enough time and resources to send some word at least after getting to safety. “ i do not deserve you. not then, not now. ” she had loved him and yet she had not been able to leave the cardinal despite that.
msktfired:
one day he would ask her about why she decided to leave. what had richelieu promised that he could not give her? sure, he did not have the riches of the first minister but he loved her far more deeply than the other man did. to him, adele was his world and not just someone to warm his bed at night. had she asked he’d have done anything for her.
“ what did he do to you? ” his natural nature to protect had been sparked by her words. “ did he harm you? ” if he had, aramis would make sure that the cardinal paid for such actions. adele did not deserve such agonies when he is truly the one responsible for the cardinal’s ire. after all, he was the one playing with fire. if she has been hurt it would be his fault and he could not let such an attack on her stand. her own kiss brings a smile to his lips that will take hours to shake. it is an intoxication to him to feel her love. to know that he brings a smile to her heart and a skip of her heart. “ i could never stop myself from complimenting a woman whose beauty makes even the paintings in the palace weep from inadequacy. ”
“ it is in the past. you need not know what he has done, i am here to take care of it. ” one might say richelieu had done nothing himself, he had not fired the shot nor done anything else except bring her to the place where she would die. and how could she tell aramis it was his pistol that was used in the attempt on her life, that left a scar to remind her at all times of what happened? adele had not ever had even the slightest that aramis was to blame, that he carried a responsibility for her near death. he did not pull the trigger. he did not take her to the woods to die.
he could never know. never. adele did not want him hurt in whatever way, she could not bear the thought of causing him to be unhappy. he was everything to her, part of the reason why she was so hellbent on having her revenge. “ don’t get involved. you cannot help. this is something none but me can do or i’ll never be satisfied. ” it would haunt her if she did not do it herself. it would consume her to have had a chance to make the cardinal pay for everything he put her through and that she did not take it. though it was unsure whether doing it would bring her peace, it was certain it would be one of her biggest regrets. “ you would understand if you knew. i am not being impulsive, i promise. ” for once things had been properly planned, in contrast to her usual proneness to improvising.
msktfired:
“ believe me, he has not changed his opinion of us since you left. if anything it has only gotten worse. ” at least they won the competition against the red guard to prove their superiority. otherwise he’s sure that richelieu would lord than over them as well. use it to try and get some of them to lose their commissions. or in d’artagnan’s case, to never get his. “ and the trouble is worth it for you. ”
something about how she speaks makes him take notice. there is a hatred of richelieu that before was soothed by the promise of gifts that the man could provide. now, she seemed truly set in despising him. “ should i be getting my pistols primed? ” it would be a stupid act to attack the cardinal as one lone musketeer but should he want to head into exile he’s sure his brothers would follow suit out of honour. “ you look just as stunning as before. a beauty that no man could ever hope to earn unless you grant us the privilege. ” calloused fingers take her hand in his own and he bends to kiss her knuckles.
at this rate he may just make her cry which would be disastrous, for surely her resolve would crumble and she tell him everything what had happened since her forced departure. and he’d not take it well. richelieu may just be dead at the end of the day by aramis’ hand if he knew. it was touching but more so terrifying: treason was no light matter.
“ you should not. if i wanted him to die, i could have easily done so. ” too easily. unfortunately for richelieu, her grudge was too great to make his end a swift one or to give him the relief of death at all. and her desire to keep aramis from harm too saved him from death. “ i see you’ve not lost your charm. ” would he truly be aramis if he was without it? and had she not loved him for it, still loved him for it? in truth it was hard to keep her composure as everything in her ached to touch him, hold him, kiss him. to never let go. but it felt like a luxury that could not be afforded. and he would find out, even if she did not speak of it, her skin had been unblemished when she departed: there was no way he would not notice the scar the gunshot had left behind nor the other smaller scars that had happened during her escape. still, against her better judgement and perhaps even out of habit, she found herself holding his hand with both of hers and lifting it to her lips for a gentle kiss against the back of it. she’d not truly said anything of loving him, but one could not conceal the love behind such gentle gestures.
msktfired:
“ i could have helped you. you know i would. ” he has missed her greatly. finding out that she had left him for the cardinal had been a hard pill to swallow considering how close they had gotten. how much love had been shared in that bedroom. but now once again he can have her in his arms and kiss her like no one else exists in the world. she also seems untethered to her former lover that makes him worry less for her.
business? “ what kinds of business? ” aramis is only gently pushing her but if she doesn’t wish to tell him he won’t demand it of her. “ and do you have a place to stay for the evening? i do not know if your old house is still being kept in good repair. ”
she knew he would have. like adele would do anything for him, aramis would do anything for her. a most beautiful devotion, but dangerous for the both of them. “ the musketeers already have enough to endure from the cardinal. you’d have only gotten into trouble. ” not exactly a lie and it was always easier when there was truth involved, these things adele had learned long ago and she had only gotten better at twisting words.
if it was up to her it would be lethal business, but that was too easy a way out for what the cardinal had done to her. no, that man needed to suffer as she had and then some more. she had left the love of her life because of him. had been the most alone ever in her whole life. he needed to pay. “ let’s just say there is plenty bad blood between me and richelieu. i intend to repay him for his treatment. ” but alone. aramis was already in enough danger as it was and it was suspicious richelieu had never made a move towards him. the whole purpose of her disappearance had been to keep her lover safe. “ it is not my house anymore. i am staying with some old neighbours for now. ” a stark contrast to what adele had gotten used to. but her life had started in the less than fancy neighbourhoods of paris, so it was not much of a struggle either. “ ... you look good. i’m glad. i was worried about that when i left. ”
@msktfired liked for an adele starter !!
“ i have been occupied these last few months. the city had become a place of trouble for me. ” one could not really say she’d deceived him, for there had been some truth in her former servant’s lies, even if her departure from the city had been entirely unwillingly. and nearly fatal too. in a way adele was glad he did not know the truth. perhaps it had been better to have aramis think she had just up and left without a care, left him without feeling the need to tell him. that sort of heartbreak was better than the one death brought.
the cardinal’s guard was down now, and apparently his health was failing, so there was no better timing than now to return and exact her vengeance. and the look on the man’s face had been priceless as he had seen her walk the streets without a care. ghosts did tend to haunt people like him. “ there is unfinished business between me and the cardinal. i’ve come to deal with it, after careful planning. ”
i’m just seeing shit on the dash and i literally have no idea what’s going on
me, rewatching the musketeers bbc: imma add adele
