what does kathernie's head look like with out a crown?
Katherine: Oh, so you’d rather have me tell them!
Lady Foster: What in tarnation are you even doing answering questions from strangers? Honey, I thought we were supposed to discuss important matters regarding Project Lazarus.
Katherine: …wait. What seems to be the matter? I thought you put a stop to that project 20 years ago.
Lady Foster: Yeah, well the reanimated corpse of a talking dog just showed up at our doorstep so I think now would be a good time to discuss it again since, oh you knowwwww, someone may have recreated the project for themselves and we might be in imminent danger.
Katherine: Oh no…
Lady Foster: Yeah. “Oh no” is right. If anything else like Archie pops up again we’re fucking doomed.
Katherine: W-what do you suppose we do?
(More under the cut!)
Lady Foster: I don’t know, your majesty. You tell me. You’re the one running this whole shitshow.
Katherine: I-I never wanted this… This is why I need you. Help me out. Take care of this… You’re the one that talked Fernando out of it!
Lady Foster: God, it’s no wonder people are plotting rebellion. Maybe they’re right, you really don’t know what you’re doing, do you? And to top it all off, you don’t have a damn spine.
Katherine: Look, I know I was suddenly put in this position, but Fernando left this job to me for SOME reason. He knew you too, and he didn’t give you the crown!
Lady Foster: Well he had the hots for you, not me. He really used his head when he made that decision… and I don’t mean the head sitting on his shoulders.
Katherine: No. It can’t be that. That can’t be the reason. He’s not some sort of goddamn idiot. Besides, what do you know about running a country? Why don’t you sit here and handle the Revenant War and a possible rebellion and trying to run a country in the shadow of the Renaissance King? And Aurora seems to have taken Cortez away and GAH. Listen, Mel - I go through enough and I’m not going to have someone who doesn’t know what it feels like push me around!
Lady Foster: …wow.
Katherine: Please, just. Take care of it.
Lady Foster: Right away, your majesty.
Katherine: I-I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to-
Lady Foster: No no. It’s fine. Props to you, Kat. You really do have a spine in there somewhere. That’s why I let you shove me around.
And here’s the reference and character page for the new character, Lady Melissa Foster!
Title: El Jefe (The Boss)
Species: Ninetales (Shiny)
Age: 25
Personality: Sweet and coquettish yet at the same time brash, condescending and blunt. She can also be very big-headed and can tend to think highly of herself. She also tends to be very secretive of her past and has an extensive knowledge about demons.
Born: She says she was born in 1966.
Occupation: Lead Engineer for the Crown of the Royal Isles (Since the establishment of the crown in 2020)
Spouse: Mentioned but not named.
Children: None
Not much is known about Lady Melissa, even though she’s the head of all the engineers that work under Queen Katherine. When she does let a bit of her backstory slip out, the information constantly conflicts or what she reveals is extremely cryptic. A notable example is her age, where she claims she was born in the year 1966 when the year is currently 2048. This would mean that she is 82 years old, but she always claims she is 25.
She is very secretive about her backstory as well as her personal life but she is more likely to unveil more about her personal life rather than her backstory when asked.
When it comes to her primary job, she takes her work very seriously and can tend to be very upset if things aren’t done right or if her old dirt is exposed from Fernando’s rule. To accompany her vast knowledge of machinery, she also seems to have an immense amount of physical strength for someone of her stature, which many take note of.
Many men lust after Melissa since she has “un cuerpo construido por pecado” (“a body built for sin”) but some men even recall meeting or having personally known a prostitute named Roxanne, who looked very similar to Melissa in appearance and had mysteriously disappeared one evening in the year 2019 - in the midst of the Cryptic War. Roxanne was presumed dead by the police at the young age of 25, but many theories surround her disappearance. Many men theorize that Lady Melissa had involvement in the disappearance of Roxanne, but she often denies even knowing her and acts strange when asked about her.
Whether she had involvement in the prostitute’s mysterious disappearance or not, she seems to share her formally flirtatious personality, oddly enough. She tends to call strangers “Sugar” or “Sweetie” (in a more flirty way than in a more grandmotherly way) and while many men swoon over her, she does claim to have a husband. Not much is known about him aside from the fact that he works as a bartender for her “other job” and that she met him a long time ago and had only recently reunited and married, claiming she had lived in Hayañil for much longer than he did.
More info here, on her Bio.
Mod: Some asks for this new one would be nice. Even though I haven’t made a post on this blog for months, I’ll be back in the swing of things! Some ask hints for this character are under the cut for those wanting to interact.
What do you do in your spare time?/Do you have any other jobs?
What is Project Lazarus and what did Fernando try to do?
What was Fernando like?
Do you happen to know anything about the disappearance of Roxanne?
Do you know anything about Aurora Schmidt?
How do you know so much about demons?
What do you know about demons?
Did the Crown ever have any dark secrets?
Who’s your husband? How did you two meet?
What was it like working under Fernando?
How did you end up becoming an engineer?
What’s a creation you find to be your best one?
Why do you look so young when you’re over 70 years old?
Did you have any men in your life before your husband?
Mod: I highly suggest coming up with your own questions but these are some good ones to begin with.
Jasper:He brought a paw up to knock,his reddish eyes scanning around.He was fearful,seeing how some hid when they saw him or froze.He shook it off,but those factors made him frightened."Umm,hello?"He called,his gruff voice echoing.Was the door gonna open?Or was something horrid about to happen...?
Cecilia: Project Lazarus? What’s-
Adrián: How is this even possible? We locked ARCHIE away long after Fernando abandoned the whole Project Lazarus disaster… If she sees that someone else may have imitated it that means that someone knows about Archie.
Cristiano: …and if someone knows about Archie someone knows about Project Lazarus. And if someone knows about Project Lazarus, Lady Melissa’s going to-
Christiano: Lady Foster, ma'am! You’re here for a visit to the castle I presume! Ma'am, I can explain-
Melissa: Quit your chin-wagging. Both of you.
Melissa: And I don’t need you gum-flapping dumbasses distracting me from my work.

Bayside Heat Bayside Summers, Book 3 By: Melissa Foster Narrated by: Ava Erickson & Aiden Snow Fall in love at Bayside, where sandy beache
Bayside Heat is everything I look for in a summer read - or listen as the case may be. It has plenty of feels but is still low angst. The characters are relatable and so easy to root for, and the chemistry is off the charts. Drake and Serena tiptoe around each other a bit, but there's no denying what's between them. The romance is friends to lovers and a first love romance, and it's a great combination of sweet and sexy. There are also some chuckle-worthy moments, which I always appreciate, and I love that the secondary characters are just as important to the story as our couple. Everyone, from the woman making donuts to the overbearing boss to the little scene stealer (just give it a listen, you'll know who I mean) - anyway, everyone adds something to the story, and the more I listened, the more I'm convinced I have to go back and listen to the first two in the series. Yes, this is a standalone, but now that I've met them, I need more of these characters.
Ava Erickson and Aiden Snow give voice to the characters, and their performance was nothing short of what I've come to expect from both of them. When it comes to feels and keeping the energy of the story up, these two bring it. So, I'd have to say that Melissa Foster's terrific writing combined with Ava Erickson's and Aiden Snow's narration is a pretty unbeatable match.
