Lady Millicent C. Lovell

"There's only two kinds of people in this world. The lions and those who get mauled by them. It's a game, you either play it, or get eaten. Mind you, I have chosen to walk among the lions."

(( Of course I always take my characters super duper seriously . Pffft, really though, I can imagine Millicent enjoying one of those really trashy harlequin novels in the worst guilty pleasure kind of way. The thought amuses me greatly. ))

"After all, a true highborn lady must set herself apart from the common rabble."

(( Pffft, yeah, I'm calling canon on this one. Millicent's just the kind of person who would want to set herself apart from others this way. So every dress she owns is one of a kind. Also, let me tell you how fun it is to just go crazy with clothing designs of the posh and steampunk kind. ))

I'm glad to say that my exams are over now and that I'll finally be able to pick up the activity on this blog again. Ah, it's been too long.

As for Millicent,

She's been having a blast

In that cozy, little plothole I tossed her in.

Because re-building characters in SC to blow off some steam during breaks from studying is kinda great, actually.

Now to go back to your regularly scheduled "Ew, peasants!"

(( I hope whoever put a character limit on asks steps on legos for the rest of their life. How can I have Millicent properly diss people without being allowed too get all wordy? D: ))

The worst thing about you is that you’ve almost certainly heard everything I could possibly say to you, and yet you don’t care. You’re so mired in your narrow little world you can’t even see how miserable you are…. nor how meaningless your life is. If you died tomorrow, no one but your controlling parents would notice. If the world changed at all, it would be perhaps a little more pleasant due to your absence. You have far too much pride for a woman with literally nothing to be proud of.

“Oh woe, you just revealed my sad, sad core. Ah yes, how could I be anything but miserable and hollow with all these riches, all that knowledge? Truly, I am nothing but a stain on the face of society, undeserving of even referring to myself as a human. Ah, how can I possibly go on with the burden of this awful truth on my shoulders?”

Millicent barely finishes speaking before erupting in a braying laughter - quite unladylike.

“Ah yes, nice try, cat, but it takes a little more than empty words to hurt me. Too bad that I am quite satisfied with this life you disease-ridden lot can only dream of, hm? Oh, this is rich - it’s like a kitten trying to scare a lion into submission.”

Tell us more about the late Mr. Lovell. What sort of man was he?

“He was one of the few bearable people in this city. Certainly a more enjoyable company than my ‘most esteemed ’parents.”

(( In hindsight, Mortimer Lovell was probably one of the very few people Millicent has had a meaningful relationship with. And by that I mean, a relationship that goes beyond fake smiles and plotting to backstab the other noble-style. Lovell was an old friend of Millicent’s parents; while her mother wanted to have the girl out of sight as swiftly as possible, the couple still felt uncomfortable with the idea of marrying her daughter to just some stranger. That’s why Lovell was one of their first choices. The man himself was a physician and an intellectual - certainly more open-minded than most of the human upper crust.

In that way, he had some more progressive ideas and was more open-minded than most. So while he lived, he was actually a good influence on Millicent as he did his very best to somehow, well, alleviate the parental dogma his young wife had grown up with. At the same time he taught her to move among the rest of the nobility without arousing their ire and was actually responsible for Millicent becoming such a devoted marksman.

Well, then he died of a lung disease, which was assumed to be pneumonia. Millicent didn’t take it well and took a turn for the worse again. So one could say that Lovell had been some sort of walking moral compass for her. ))

Send in questions regarding my character's past.

[esmer-of-duality]

[shotgunsnobbery-blog]

Hestia, Athena, & Aphrodite.

(( I already answered “Athena” in a previous ask, so I’ll tackle the other two. ))

Hestia: Where do you most want to live?

“Why, I am rather content with my estate in the upper district, I must say. Besides that, however, I would not mind a nice cottage in an actual forest area. The sea is lovely, but alas, it doesn’t exactly offer ample opportunity for hunting. A shame, really.”

 Aphrodite: What do you find attractive in a partner?

“Oh please, can’t a widow just be - oh I don’t know - a widow around here? That would be much appreciated, really. Well, as everyone and their dog may have noticed at this point my darling parents have chosen to control my amorous pursuits for quite a while, so I appreciate having some breathing room.

Ah, and contrary to popular belief, I have standards. I am free to do as I please at present - and I would not settle with anybody for money alone, I have plenty of that. I need someone who is actually an intellectual equal. Ha, and neither lizard nor cat, of course.”

[shotgunsnobbery-blog]

Athena, Hephaestus & Zeus

Athena: Do you have any special talents?

“I should say that being able to sway others with words and cunning alone is a talent in itself - and a useful one in this city; surprising no one. Ah, and if that does not help, I am rather skilled with firearms. Rather brutish, but necessary at times. Especially when literal cat burglars are involved.”

Hephaestus: If you could learn a skill instantly, what would you choose?

“At present, I am rather content with my own capabilities. Mm, if I really have to choose, however, I would gladly accept supreme fencing skills. One can never know when such a thing may come in handy - and I would rather be prepared for anything.”

Zeus: If you ruled the world, what would you change?

“Now, I cannot say that I am entirely displeased with how the world is in its present state, but I would most definitely evict all those filthy lowlifes to wallow on some abandoned island - or whatever place is the most perilous to escape from. They contribute nothing except higher crime rates, truly.”
