Princess of Austria

“She is so stubborn, her heart has an argument with her head every time it wants to beat.”

it was quite early, the sleep not yet leaving antonia’s eyes. she should be used to waking up early, but her swiss bed was calling out her name, willing her to curl back into the sheets for a few more minutes. sleep must wait, however, as she had a duty to fulfill. the door to the chamber opened and antonia stood to greet the visitor. “good morning,” the seamstress said, bowing her head slightly. “do you have something that needed mending? or perhaps an order you would like to put in?” she still couldn’t believe she was standing in switzerland talking to princes and princesses as customers. it was completely maddening.  @1642hqs-starters​

Elizabeth was surprised when she didn’t see the familiar face of her country’s  seamstress “Oh. I’m sorry I thought this was someone elses room...I was told she was here.” Maybe there had been some confusion, she had just asked a guard. In fact for all she knew the lovely woman she knew was still in Austria.

“I think it has... being quite honest I didn’t want to come” she said sighing, she had once loved to travel and being around people, not only in parties but  in general, now she just couldn’t relax “I understand why are we here of course but...there so many people and ..I just would rather be in a more familiar place.”

Augustus nodded. At least, if his fears were unfounded, he was not alone in them. It would make sense, that the time spent hiding away would perhaps make the outside world seem just a bit more frightening. “I would assume so. And I myself took quite ill for a time. I know the troubles are behind us, but. It really does feel like it’s been an eternity.”

“What were you ill with? Though I’m glad that you are well now.” She said politely at least, he didn’t look sick. “It feels like another life almost...but I do hope that now things can be rebuilt I suppose.” Because just going back to how all was, didn’t seem all possible but she was trying to be positive about the future.

it was difficult to call a different country her home, even if it was only few months. it was different than ethiopia, biased opinions made her miss home. she stepped outside, letting the daylight seep into her skin before she took a breath and made her way around. she closed her eyes for a moment before she heard footsteps near. “greetings,” she called, opening her eyes to give a soft smile.

“Oh hello” she said with a small smile, “I hope I’m not interrupting something.” She had been feeling restless and at least for now she had found walking in the gardens managed to calm her a little, she knew she was being silly.

“Well pretty things are always nice to look at even if you have seen then before, and even if it’s the same moon everything around it isn’t, sometimes she’s behind clouds sometimes she looks red..It’s just nice to stop and look at it at least for a moment.”

“oh, i do apologize, i must be in the wrong chambers, just got a little turned around somewhere. my head’s really not doing the best today, sorry again, i’ll be on my way.”

“Where do you want to be?” She asked catching her breath as the sudden appearance had managed to scare her a little, and even now she was weary.

“As glad I am for the change in scenery,” Augustus said, glancing around, “I must admit, a meeting of this scale leaves me feeling…uneasy.” He’d never done especially well on his own in groups, mainly due to having very rarely ever been on his own back home. He wasn’t opposed to it, but the feeling of restlessness was not unfamiliar to him.

There had been a time when she loved big gatherings and parties but now, she honestly would have preferred to stay back home, everything around was so nice but she just didn’t feel at ease. “I am glad that I am not the only one..but it must be that we had to spend so much time closed off in our homes.”

** ♔ announcing ELIZABETH HABSBURG,  THE PRINCESS OF AUSTRIA ! in a recent portrait they seem to resemble VIRGINIA GARDNER. it is a miracle that SHE survived the last five years and for that reason, they are NEUTRAL the kingdoms working together. reflecting on them now, they remind me of FROZEN FLOWERS, FLOWY DRESSES, SIDE GLANCES, STING OF PEARLS .

Full Name: Elizabeth Ilina Katherina Habsburg   Nickname(s): Liz, Lizzie, Eli Age: 25 Date of Birth: 16 December Zodiac Sign: Sagittarius  Place of Birth: Vienna Gender: cisfemale Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual Occupation: Princess of Austria Language(s) Spoken: German, English, French, Norwegian

♔♔

- She is the youngest of the sibling but she was never felt like she was a spare or anything of the sort

- Growing up she had a very happy normal life for a princess, she took her classes and responsibilities seriously but she also loved to party and did got in trouble sometimes though nothing terrible

- She adores her family and truly cares for Austria, she will never rule it -nor does she want to- but still tries to do as much as she can for the country and its people, so when the plague broke out really affected her but kept it together to help as much as possible

- But then the King was murdered. She won’t be truly a t peace until the one that did it is found and brought to justice.

- The happy, loving and trusting princess she was is still there deep down -well the trusting part is gone for the exception of just a few people- now she though she pretends not to, is more closed off, suspicious and a little paranoid
