pick one character and spoil if the person they are currently with is their endgame
River! It was hard to pick someone that wasn't too obvious or too big of a spoiler. I will go with Everly and her current beau, Westley Coles. They are...
If you get this, answer w/ three random facts about yourself and send it to the last seven blogs in your notifs. anon or not, doesn’t matter, let’s get to know the person behind the blog!
Thank you River!!
I'm not gonna lie, it's wayy harder answering this for myself!
I go to movies at least 3 times a week. Movies are my beloved. Literally anything I can watch, I will! I think the very last film I watched was "The Red Shoes"
for whatever reason I have an obsession with cups (i.e. cups, bottles, mugs, possibly bowls. (if bowls are an extension of cups)). by no means am I hoarder (isn't that what they all say 🙄) but let's just say, everytime I see a pretty. I go, "my precioussss."
I HATEEEE lizards!! Not only do I hate them, Ive got a phobia😔. I'm only bringing this up since I had a stint with one the other day, and am still recovering. This would be less of a problem if I lived up north, but I live in Florida... THEY ARE EVERYWHERE.
How are children named in your world? Are there any tradtions? When is the name announced to others?
I think I've answered this before but it's mostly just the tastes of the parents. Sometimes you won't know a royal baby's name until weeks after the birth, such was the case with Phillip and Courtney's kids.

Thank you very much to my fellow partners in this one for relying their babes on me. This has been fun, I hope I can do it something bigger and better soon. You’re the best.)
NEWS. LIVE.
CARMEN BALLET INAUGURATION GALA.
ARRIVING: THE DUKE FREDERICK AND THE DUCHESS AMELIA OF DRAVOS, FROM ELTHONIA.
(Reporter’s voice): Looking in love like never before, the first to arrive are the Duke and Duchess of Dravos, Frederick and Amelia, newly arrived in the country from Elthonia.
ARRIVING: TH EARL JASPER AND COUNTESS PRUDENCE OF BREFBURY
(Reporter’s voice): In their first official appearance in months, the Earl and Duchess of Brefbury come second to the gala. What is the reason for their sudden disappearance from public life?
ARRIVING: HH COUNTESS KATHERINE OF CHAFFORD AND HRH CROWN PRINCE ELLIOT
(Reporter’s voice): Next to arrive are HH Duchess Katherine of Chafford, escorted by Crown Prince Elliot. Where have our favourite young royals left their dates?

(Reporter’s voice): Another international visit! Arriving from Esha, TRH Crown Prince George and Anne, Princess of Esha, enter the Opera House. We hope that the relationship between Esha and Kildenria will continue as well from now on.
ARRIVING: HH PRINCE MADDOX OF KILDENRIA
(Reporter’s voice): With no one by his side, Prince Maddox arrives, presumable accompanying his own parents. Didn’t he have some kind of relationship with the crown princess of Tartosa? We know they were invited to this gala. What could be the reason for their absence?

ARRIVING: TM KING ALISTAIR IV AND QUEEN CONSORT AVALON
(Reporter’s voice): Last but not least, the monarchs of Kildenria arrive at the Opera House, looking as please as ever to be there.
What language do the characters in your country speak, and are there any other languages that your characters interact with?
English would be Lunaria's national language! For a long time the Royal family have been close with the Castillian Grand Duchy so all of them are fluent in Spanish, Castille's national language.
As a bonus fact: Nicky used to only be conversational in French but ever since meeting Minerva he's worked hard to become fluent.
Does your world have any superstitions? And how do your characters react to it?
tysm for this ask 💗 my world does have superstitions !! and they’re real in my story 👹
ofc, there’s the classic broken mirror thing, don’t have two mirrors facing each other, evil eye, sweeping feet with a broom, fear of full moons, don’t open your umbrella indoors, unlucky numbers kind of superstitions lol - my fav is haint blue on doors or porches keep spirits & negative ppl away 😋
mary’s def superstitious 🤧 she believes all of them, especially ones culturally significant to simyeo - like whistling at night is a no no !! giving shoes to a partner is a no no !! and she doesn’t own any pens with red ink 🫣
the only ones in the fam that aren’t superstitious are the younger gen, so mary and edward’s kids pretty much 💀 edward isn’t very superstitious either, but he tolerates mary’s lil rambles because he finds anything she says cute <3
