Infanta Lisette

Dice que es la niña más feliz del mundo Brilla su sonrisa un poco más que ayer Va contando horas segundo a segundo Cómo imaginar que un día vendría así Y cada noche lo consulta con su almohada Que nunca tuvo tantas ganas de vivir

the pace she walked in was quick — she knew the route so well she could have walked it with her eyes closed. the stairs that had been sculpted into the bedrock were a slightly difficult to descend with grace. “ no, no. there are lightbulbs. nothing bad ever happens when lightbulbs are involved. “ she turned her head to look at lis over her shoulder. her hand kept pulling her along. “ it’s only tragic if it ends, no ? ” once her foot touched the smooth concrete of the pier she twirled around and pulled lis by the hand a bit harshly so that the girl came tumbling into her arms. “ listen, lis. ” she brushed a lock of the princess’ hair behind her ear. her hand lingered on the edge of her face. her delicate fingers lay on the other’s soft cheek. “ if you don’t stop me, i’m going to kiss you. ”

Gaia was walking every quickly down steps that Lis wasn’t so sure about. She could see these being used by a lady of the renaissance, running down these steps to flea with her lover on his ship. Her family asleep above none the wiser. She could also see herself falling to her death or breaking an ankle. But she managed to keep up with the Italian until the very last few steps when she was pulled, falling into the others arms. She wanted to agree with Gaia, but she didn’t have much time, just looking at her in awe for a few moments was enough for her to have change subject. One that made her blush, both at Gaia’s words and her soft touch, and ever so softly smile. It wasn’t the first time it would happen. But she had always been too nervous to bring it up, or even think too much about it. Thinking about it would bring up so many other questions she wasn’t ready to answer about herself. But they were alone, under a starry night right out of a painting. And she wanted to kiss Gaia. She leaned into her touch for a second before leaning forward and kissing the Italian herself

“ what are you sorry for ? i don’t mind when cute people find an excuse to talk to me. ” there’s a vain assumption there on purpose and she delivered the line like there was nothing off about it. “ viv’s friend… ” lis. viv’s friend lis. lis, lisette. she burst out laughing. “ you introduce yourself as viv’s friend as if that’s your most defining quality ? ” she could hardly believe it. she draped an arm around the other’s shoulders and started walking towards the nearby benches. in her slightly intoxicated state, in the crowd, and in the soft sand, it was surprisingly difficult. “ bub, if i were you, i’d shut everyone up by telling them there’s a tiara with your name on it. leaves an unforgettable impression. especially here. especially here on this beach, what on earth are you doing here ? you never know who might come and try to murder you or something. ” she let out a heavy sigh as she fell onto the bench. she tossed the nearly empty glass bottle into the sand and stretched out her arms. “ sit. sit. “ she patted the spot next to her.

She could instantly feel her cheeks warming up and she was very glad for the wine she had so far that night. Drunk Lis wasn’t a confident person by any means- but she was years away from Lis sober and universes ahead of Lisette. Drunk Lis could actually respond with a smile despite the deep red overtaking her face. “To northers, I suppose it is.” It was a bit disconcerting that the other knew who she was. Her favorite part of this vacation so far, the true reason she had chosen a small town and had come alone, as to be a little normal for once. But Gaia didn’t quite seem like the person to treat her any different for her royal status. All these thoughts had been flooding her as she let Gaia, beautiful beautiful Gaia who was to close and it was truly a miracle she was thinking at all, guide her to.. Lis had no real idea where they were going. Perhaps she should have been more alarmed by this fact. “I’m hiding away from my college career. Well, the lack of one” she was only mildly aware she wasn’t replying to most of the things the other was saying. And that seemed rude, but suddenly Gaia was no longer next to her. And that seemed worst than her own shortcomings. She sat down, close but not daring to be close enough to touch the other as they had been seconds before. Cause drunk Lis was just as much a coward as all her other selves. “the tiara thing. Just seems bad. I would definitely kill that person. But Lis who likes wine is probably fine. Everyone likes wine. Or everyone should like wine.” She pulled one leg up on the bench so she could turn to look at Gaia “Were we speaking Italian? I’m not this good at Italian.”

“ oh christ ! ” gaia exclaimed and barely kept her drink from spilling all over the sand. her eyes settled on the pretty girl right after she had made sure there wasn’t a stain on her white dress. gaia liked the few drips of spilled drink off her hand and arched a brow at the peculiar greeting. “ uhm. ” the look on her face turned into a frown. “ last time i checked i was neither blonde, blue-eyed or a bitch. ” she probably should have controlled her tongue more carefully when talking about a royal — but she cracked certain jokes too easily around the dutch, it was hard to stop when they were apart. “ it’s gaia. ”

Lis eyes were going a bit wide at the other’s response. Even in her intoxicated state, others opinions of her held a height that could crush her at any second “I meant sorry.” she quickly explained. “Actually I meant the other part but I meant to say sorry first.” she continued moving her hand as if it helped with her point. Gaia. The name did click. She had definitely heard it before. But she couldn’t quite remember ever having talked to the girl. Which seemed like a pity. Specially at the horrendous first impression, she was making now. Half sober on a beach in Italy.  “I’m Lis, I’m Viv’s friend.”

“ only with kindness, ” gaia quipped before putting her straw between her lips. she was glad lisette had become a regular at the italian social scene — she was a refreshing figure and frankly, gaia couldn’t get enough of her. “ of course. can’t look unsophisticated, ” she teased before clicking her cocktail glass against lis’. “ come on, i’ll show you the place. it’s down the stairs at the bottom of the cliff. “

She smiled at Gaia’s words because she was stupid like that. Like the other hadn’t said similarly sweet things (sometimes sweeter) all summer since they had met. Like she hadn’t blushed at all of them at first and had slowly evolved until this point. A stupid grin that just showed up whenever Gaia spoke to her. It always made her feel a little sick with herself whenever she had a second to overthink. “Bottom of the cliff? Stargazing? Sounds like a horror movie’s first scene.” she wondered but grabbed into Gaia’s arm, either way, to be guided to whatever this place was. “or a tragic romance.”

“ didn’t i tell you that i see you sitting even for a second, i’ll come get you ? ” gaia asked as she danced all the way to the girl with her hand extended. “ you can do anything but sit. it’s the law here. “ she gave the girl a pointed look before starting to fix herself a drink from the numerous bottles on the table next to the princess. “ what do you like ? sweet ? sour ? fruity ? wine-y ? “ the ice cubes she dropped into her own glass clicked against the glass. “ get a glass and we can go check out the pier. the view is super pretty because the stars are visible here. ” it was why she preferred to host parties at their seaside villa — while it required a drive to get there, the light pollution from the city wasn’t nearly as bad and there were no neighbours who might complain or crash. “ ( @lisettecroy )

“So you actually want to kill me” she joked with a bubbly laugh but took Gaia’s hand to get up. Sure, she wasn’t fully sober, but most of what was changing her from the pristine lady her mom had crafted had little to do with the alcohol and a lot to do with Gaia. And, had Lis been spiraling right now into her own anxiety induced shame, probably the Italian Seaside air. “Wine-y is the only correct answer,” she replied doing as Gaia said and grabbing her own glass, eyeing the bottles for a second before grabbing one. Spanish. As it should be. She was very patriotic with her drinks. And most other things.

He stared at the wall far back on the other side of the room as he tried to contain his irritation. Fine. Fine. The situation he was in was just fine. “How was the veal?” The question had an edge and he had picked it out after a moment of consideration. Out of all the things he could have asked her, he picked the one that brought attention to the growing pile of food waste. He couldn’t believe that her skills as an actress were nonexistent on their most important day. When he needed her to do her best.

Lis had to force herself not to close her eyes at the question. He had noticed. And she couldn’t tell from the question if it was concern or annoyance that had brought the question to his mind. Either way, she was already a disappointment both to him and probably her parents too. Surely he would mention this. She looked up at where they were sited, just close enough that they had probably heard the whole conversation. She wanted to throw up, cold sweat building up, and blood leaving her completion. “It was all amazing- excuse me” she mumbled before getting up from the table. This wasn’t a better option, it would just look worst but throwing up at her own wedding sounded worst in her head. She would just catch some air and then come back, smiling and doing what she was supposed to do.

Lis walked into the room with a smile on her face. “Hi, corazón.” She had gone back to the Zarzuela palace as she waited for her exams, a little bit of time with the family. Even though she had chosen to study in Madrid she had gotten her own apartment in the city. The drive was too long and for once making her way to school on her own (or as close as she could manage accompanied by a bodyguard at all times) felt freeing. Like she was living a close to normal life. She had been expecting the Italian and when she was told she had arrived and was waiting for her in one of the sitting rooms she had quickly made her way over. Lis moved away from a hug she had gotten Luciana into. “Alright, what’s the itinerary?”

The more Lis found her way through the small seaside Italian city the more she felt like she belonged there her whole life. The old buildings and stone passways, the smell of the Mediterranean and the fresh bread were all close enough to home that she felt at peace. But the language and the food and the sounds of the city provided a good enough change from the daily life of Madrid or Barcelona. Her Italian was spotty at best but she had managed enough, after knowing Luciana for so long she was at least able to pick up most of what others said. Most people here didn’t see her a royal, and it was refreshing. In a way most things hadn’t been in years.

Which mostly explained how she found her way to the party by the beach. She heard of it by some of the locals who had inveted her the day prior. A boy who smiled to big, as if his teeth had grown to big and his face was yet to caugh up. He was sweet, in a way boys usually were for Lis. In a way she so no harm in. She had just lost him in the crowd as she drinked for her warmed wine, preaphs the best thing with that name that had not come from her peninsula. She made her way through the crown, aimlesy. It wasn’t until she colided with someone that she turned to see where she was, a to apolagise. However as she turned the girls face clicked in her mind. She had seen her before. Not only around town but actually before “Ani right?” the question of course made no sense to anyone but herself. But that tended to happen when she was met with beautiful people.

It was putting on the dress that finally set off the waterfalls. Lis had been almost robotic up until this point, the arragement, the public news, the trips here. It had all been done with the perfectly placed smile and happy attitute she had been known for. In private she had been trying to come to terms with the whole thing. But it hadn’t trully become real until this moment. The dress was to big on her, even if it had been made to size just months before. At that moment she was glad she had asked only her sister to be her bridesmaid.

He liked to keep his word when he gave it to Fanni. So he had made sure that there wasn’t a sour look on his face, that he spoke without an edge in his voice, that he actually spoke to her — politely. It was getting increasingly difficult to do so though. But the blonde was sitting two seats away from him so he didn’t have much of a choice. “More wine?” he asked as he reached for the bottle on the table. “It’s Hungarian — a bit different from yours.” ( @lisettecroy )

Lis gaze had been down since they had been sited, the weight of what had happened, what was still happening, dawning on her all at once. Thinking what was still to happen was almost worst, but she wasn’t sure she was thinking much at all anymore. She hadn’t spoken more than two words the whole day - even Isabella getting little more than a few sentences out of her. Her food, plate after plate that was put in front of her went away barely touched, as the dread grew from her stomach up and engulfed her whole. Her new husband had been nothing short of a gentleman all evening, and that was almost worst. She knew Bella’s opinion of him but he had been kind. Something she didn’t deserve or had reciprocated so far. “thank you” she mumbled at his question but made no move to grab her glass once the wine had been poured into it. It hadn’t been his first effort to make conversation and with each one Lis grew more into her spiral.

(( @fannicroy ))

“Also thank you for joining me today,” Lis said turning to Fanni with a smile. Going shopping with Fanni almost made her feel normal again- her relationship with both of the Croy sisters had been strange since Olimpia’s wedding. And while she wasn’t quite sure how to approach it with Olimpia- who was very likely to call her on it from the get-go Fanni was easy. Fanni was predictable- much like Lis herself. “That dress is absolutely your color.”

[ilcnv]

“Ah!” She threw her arms up high as she waltzed into the apartment. “My loveliest employer has returned!” Thank God she had. A week or two more in Budapest and Ilona would have had to go back there. “Now, Lis, how should we celebrate your return? Good old movie night or a stroll on the beach? I could take you to a mosque too? The ones here aren’t the Grand Mosque but… they’re pretty enough.”  [ @lisettecroy ]

[lisettecroy]

Lis smiled as she saw Ilona at the door motioning her inside- she had only briefly seen her at the party, to busy between all the things she had yet to finish with the nonprofits in Spain. It didn’t feel right to bother the girl with things other than Hungarian business. “I’m honored with the title” she replied. At first, she had been quite apprehensive with Levente’s idea of getting her a lady in waiting. But she had known Ilona beforehand so it was almost a relief to have a familiar face in the new court - even if she was wary of her husbands intent. Then again she had rejected all of Levente’s ideas on the principal at that point. Letting go of all that anger was cathartic - working with Levente and learning how and why he was, was almost relieving. “All sound brilliant- But I’ve never been to Dubai. So the mosque idea sounds pretty good. Get a bit of the sightseeing. First could I get your opinion on something?” she asked motioning with her head to the small room she’s set up her office in. Both of them had one. Separate but close.

[latremoille]

“ ooh ! this sounds pretty good: classic norwegian dishes with a modern twist. “ she held the phone in front of the princess. “ i’m so tired of pasta and burgers, potatoes are suddenly my favourite side dish. though ! i would kill for fresh tomatoes, or ! or ! what’s that one tapas you love ? “ ( @lisettecroy )

[lisettecroy]

“That looks great” Lis agreed running her eyes through the page Gaia was showing her on her phone. They had gone exploring together. And Lis felt very nostalgic about the whole thing. A happy sort mostly- even if the slight guilt was rolling around her brain every time she looked at the Italian and thought how shiny her hair was, or how warm her smile made her feel. Or how a small tinge of pink was raising in her cheeks at the proximity of the two as Gaia showed her the phone. She pushed those thought out of her mind smiling up at her “the blood sausage one you refused to try for like literal weeks? The one with apple? I told you it would be the best thing you had ever tried.”

[vivckv]

“ so lis, lis, lis, guess what ? ” she was practically jumping from excitement as she grasped the spaniard’s, hungarian’s ( ? ), hand. “ you won’t believe this ! i have a date. well not like a date date. that would be silly. but i have a dinner with zara larsson. zara larsson. i’m going to get a selfie ! ” ( @lisettecroy )

[lisettecroy]

Lis smile grew at Vivenka’s excitement. Nothing made her quite as happy as seeing others happy- and Viv was just the type of person to light up a room with her smile. “A date with Zara Larsoon? Now that’s great. Tired of the Dubai sun already or is she visiting?”

the phone meme

What ringtone my muse has set for yours:

Lisette 100% does not know how to put music as her ringtone, but she has a different one for Gaia than her normal one cause she likes to know without looking that she’s calling. 

What contact photo my muse has set for yours:

What my muse thinks of the way yours texts:

Lis doesn’t mind the way Gaia texts (lets be honest she finds it endearing) but they are so different in the way they text that it lead to misunderstandings in the beginning.

How quickly my muse responds to your texts:

either she responses right away or she takes hours overanalyzing everything and ends ups sending a text than in no way answers what was asked but does so very politely lol

How often our muses text:

now a days? HA! Prime Lisaia summer? actually probably not that much since they spent a lot of time together but likely at least once or twice a day. 

How often our muses call:

I feel like Lis is more of a caller and Gaia is more of a texter so whatever moments they were speaking to each other Gaia would text Lis and she would reply only if she was somewhere she couldn’t call. Otherwise, she would call Gaia to respond and, since it was mostly likely tests like “where are you?” or “meet up at place” she would keep Gaia on the phone until she got there.

Does my muse purposefully miss calls from yours:

I mean… ye. #Gaypanic. Not anymore tho.

Last text sent from my muse to yours:

✉ → gaia✨: Would you have time for lunch one of these days✉ → gaia✨: We didn’t have enough time to talk at new years✉ → gaia✨: It’s really great to have you back here

slurred words

Lis smiled down at her phone her cheeks, already slightly colored from the wine darkening slightly. “Could I have another glass, please?” she asked as the bartender passed by. Her Italian was still choppy at best, too formal yet as if some words didn’t quite fit together.Lis smile only grew larger at the question as the guy, no older than 30, fixed her order. “She is special. We just meet. Well - no. We meet before. But we just meet, meet. You know? Sometimes you can see someone a million times and not really see them at all.” she tried to explain leaning more on the bar her fingers curling over the edge on his side. “But she’s so nice, and carefree, and the most genuine person I have ever meet. I think God sent me an angel,” she said the last part as if it was a secret, a whisper in the night followed by a small laugh as she sat back. The barmen seemed amused by her response as he put down the glass in front of her “It’s great to see someone so open about it. In this day and age the country needs more people so open about who they love” he told her as he walked away to serve another client. As she looked at her glass Lis could feel her happiness slip away as if washed by rain. She placed a few bills on the counter, likely 10 times more than she owned before she made to grab her things and leave. Her phone beeped again and she pulled it out as she made her way out the bar, I’ll be there in 10. Pocketing the phone without replying she made her way down the street to the house she had been staying in. Perhaps it was time to go home.
