🚢 17th CE Philippe de Lorraine x Philippe I d’Orléans 💜 Philippe Philippe 💜 17th CE OCs

[monre8]

spend too many hours plotting my oc’s daily schedule I don’t even care about schedules myself what

[monre8]

wait i actually have an oc who’s a textile merchant supplying furnishings for saint-cloud and i have tons of little stories about this guy sitting in my brain if anyone ever wants to hear them 🥺🥺🥺

[monre8]

im interested in 17th century gossiping now ppl were so mean i love it

[monre8]

just requested a book on Ballet Royal de la Nuit from uni library cuz I cannot found philippe’s morning star costume anywhere in public domain ><

so here’s a little doodle while i wait for the book to arrive

since he was playing the morning star, the second brightest after the sun, I made his costume resemble the sun’s but toned down the ornamentation (did i

anyway just a quick doodle!

[monre8]

i have this unwanted thought of Lorraine in a pair of plaid toned houndstooth semi translucent wellingtons trying to look dignified while retrieving his beloved hound dog (a beagle yes) from muddy water

[monre8]

philippe would love window shopping

he wouldn’t care if it’s a thrift shop or a luxury store he’d only reject things that are badly made (or visibly dirty)

what could be more delightful than finding a pretty piece of handmade jewelry that cost less than a meal (though he usually is generous w food costs)

naturally, he’d buy almost everything he could so it would barely be window shopping

lorraine would tease him for it but he’d also be a terrible influence cuz half of the time when philippe comes up w some wildly unecessary purchase he’d go ‘well im curious too let’s get it’

and when that turns out to be a mismatch he’d immediately go ‘i told u it wouldn’t look good’ then get side-eyed and a formal complaint from philippe

but eventually the two would find a way to repurpose it together

[monre8]

i think i’ll share my phil & chev playlists once they both hit 10 songs hehehh

[fuckyeahmonsieur]

[monre8]

kinda think philippe would like seiko matsuda’s songs

[monre8]

phil: father, i have sinned 🥺👉👈

chev: have you indeed 😏

phil: i confess… for i have some disturbing thoughts about you 🥺🥺

chev: go on👂

phil: i fear that they are… rather improper 👉👈

chev: you will be forgiven, monsieur

chev: so what exactly was i doing in these disturbing thoughts 👂👂

phil: you were… considerably less clothed 👉👈

chev: i see. how considerably?👂👂👂

phil: only in your chemise 👉👈 and your collar was loose, and…

chev: and?👂👂👂👂

phil: you are being terribly thorough for an abbé

chev: of course

phil: and your sleeves were undone

chev: both of them?

phil: …philippe.

chev: abbé, monsieur.

phil: you are enjoying this far too much😫

chev: im merely ensuring the confession is complete 🙏

hair gem stamper.

if philippe has one

we’ll have

1 sparkly prince

2 sparkly hounds

3 sparkly plushies

and 1 chevalier who insists his hairstyle remain untouched

while picking up rhinestones off the floor every other minute ✨

[monre8]

Would Philippe love jello if they had jello i bet he would

(i mean fruit jello, salad jello is a sin)

21st century Monchevy home office:

Philippe has a yoga ball and keeps gently bouncing during zoom calls, rolling backwards to reach a cabinet. Lorraine just assembled their new sit-stand desk and spent the first day changing the height every 30 minutes cuz apparently this is good for his back.

Philippe finds bouncing everywhere is incredibly amusing so now he’s considering getting a hopper ball

and Lorraine will be working at the standing desk and hear the increasing little noises of

Boing

Boing

Boing

out of the kitchen and approaching from behind

then hugs him in the legs

[monre8]

Philippe would def have a dish filled with pralines and candied fruit in his study and Lorraine would casually pocket some whenever he wandered in so he could impress Philippe with emergency snacks during their walks

Except one day a servant accidentally refilled the dish with way too much candied orange peel

so when Lorraine came in like usual seeing Philippe eating it and that disproportionally filled dish, he thought, oh, he likes orange peel, then took more into his pocket

meanwhile Philippe noticed Lorraine kept taking the orange peel and thought, oh, he must like it, so he made sure the dish was always properly refilled with it

and that’s how the two spent years lovingly supplying each other with one sweet that neither particularly liked

[monre8]

Modern day Monchevy household pet population: one cat, two dogs (maximum of ONE beagle instead of 70), a corn snake and two guinea pigs because they’re cute why not

[monre8]

okay weird thought: i watched way too many roller coaster reviews today so what if the two went to a modern day theme park

Lorraine absolutely loved every ride because he’s a adrenaline junkie of course (and he’d probably be the kind of ppl who keep a checklist and rate every single coaster they rode)

Meanwhile the staff politely asked Philippe for a height check (he passed!) but he refused to go on anything w a water splash cuz “the pool water stinks”

one afternoon two sleeves, six tabs sewn
