Wishing you a Christmas full of treasured memories; even the ones that make you a little bit sad 🎄✨
AUTHOR’S NOTE: When I tell you this post was a labour of love. I mean it. The GIFs alone took me an entire night! But I really think all my hard work paid off because, damn, this might be my favourite storypost to date. This post takes place around twenty years into the future and there are so many hidden hints and spoilers and some pretty balant ones too. The first speaking lines of Millicent, Florence, Imogen, Thomasin, Athena. And a special foreign royal making a cameo? It just makes me so excited for where this story is headed next year.
Thank you all for reading, commenting, and reblogging. It means so much to me. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to you all!
[MIA] Oh, dear, Mom!
[KATHERYN] So, this is, what, the rehearsal? There has to be a better word for this
[MIA] But that’s exactly what it is. I suppose they want us to think about what to say beforehand. It’s a cute idea, stop picking it apart, you sound like Dad
[KATHERYN] I’m not picking anything apart, I just find it odd that we don’t even own our home vid—Oh! She fell over again
[IRENE] Maybe we should get a chair, sweetheart
[JAQUELINE] Noooo, I can do it myself [giggles]
[KATHERYN] It’s so odd seeing her as a beginner. I only ever remember her being an expert. Talented from birth. Don’t laugh, but I used to be jealous. Everything I attempt turns to ashes, it seems
[MIA] Kat. You’re not responsible for Drake’s actions
[KATHERYN] Yet, here I am suffering the consequences anyway—you know what? Let’s just focus on the video. You’re right, it’s cute
[PHILLIP] Look, Jill, this is the Christmas tree and on Christmas morning, there will be lots of presents from Santa Claus but only for the good kids
[KATHERINE] Phillip, darling, you are far too old to still believe such things
[THOMASIN] Oh, my God, that is so fucking rude. How did he live with these people?
[MILLICENT] See? See? That’s the type of shit you cannot be saying, but you just can’t help yourself, can you?
[THOMASIN] Whatever, they can edit it. And why did they ask us to do this if they don’t want our actual opinions?
[MILLICENT] You think they care about our actual opinions?
[THOMASIN] Not really, but the fantasy is nice. Keeps me going
[MILLICENT] Does the word narcissist mean anything to you?
[THOMASIN] Don’t worry I’ll control myself this time, but only because they’ll blame Mom if I don’t
[Phyllis] What’s wrong with believing in Santa? I do. And, for the record, he thinks you’ve been very good this year, Phillip
[MILLICENT] Look, there’s Aunt Phyllis
[THOMASIN] Aw, she’s always been a sweetie
[THOMASIN] See? At least there’s one person on our side
[MILLICENT] One or two
[IMOGEN] It’s—that’s, uh, adorable
[FLORENCE] Right? Grandmother would love it, I don’t know why she tried to shut this whole thing down
[IMOGEN] All the pic—pic—pho-to-graphs of Grandfather make her [—] make it hard for her
[FLORENCE] Yeah, but I feel like the holidays should make it better at least
[IRENE] What are you looking at, mister?
[JAMES] I was looking for snow, the weatherman said it would
[???] Is that you? Because he looks like you . . . Dad?
[ATHENA] Dad? I was asking you a question
[NICHOLAS] Hm? Oh, no, that’s not me
[ATHENA] What’s wrong?
[NICHOLAS] I don’t think I can do this anymore, Tungsten
[ATHENA] Why? Is the video upsetting you?
[ATHENA] Then maybe we can do it together. That way maybe you’ll be less sad. And not embarrassed and it will be okay
[NICHOLAS] Athena, that video is of your grandfather when he was around your age
[ATHENA] Oh . . . Are you missing him?
[IRENE] If you’d like you can pick one present to open tonight. How does that sound?
[JAMES] Ooh, yes, please! I want the big one with the blue bow, Phillip and Jack think it’s a new bike or a scooter or something
[NICHOLAS] I miss him every day, but especially now. I need his help, but he’s not here anymore
[ATHENA] It’s making me sad, and I’m afraid that I’m going to embarrass myself tomorrow
[ATHENA] . . . Why did he die?
[NICHOLAS] I don’t know. He was very sad
[ATHENA] But he looks happy in the video
[NICHOLAS] I know, I remember him being very happy, too
[ATHENA] Then maybe you should think of him being happy and you’ll be happy, too. I know This because right now you’re sad and it’s making me sad too
[NICHOLAS] I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to make you upset
[ATHENA] It’s okay, I forgive you
[ATHENA] And I forgive you if you don’t do the video. I just want you to have a merry Christmas, Daddy
THE TEN GRANDCHILDREN OF KING LOUIS V: GENERATION ONE
Lady Katheryn Belmont
Lady Mia Belmont
HRH Nicholas, Prince of Danforth
HRH Prince Alexander of Danforth
HRH Prince Samule of Woodbine
HRH Prince Arthur of Woodbine
HRH Princess Imogen of Sherbourne
HRH Princess Florence of Sherbourne
Lady Millicent Warwick
Lady Thomasin Warwick
With the birth of the twins in part three, my first generation will finally be complete! Honestly I love these kids and I can’t wait to develope them further. The way things are turning out each will have some role in the story and none will be looked in a basement, yay! But my second generation will be quite different. Only Nick and Alex’s children will matter after we make that switch.
But for now these guys will be my main focus. Do you guys see any family resemblance? I’m surprised, but I think I’m seeing a little Irene, mostly her lips, in all of them. Also Millicent, my love, I think she totally won this round.
These are the next batch of Warwicks. And let me just say . . . OMG. They’re so, I’M SORRY I CAN’T BE THEM. What a serve. Anyway, they are not all sisters. The one with the red hair . . . let’s just say there is no questioning who her parents are. The way she just snatched Shelby’s face like that has me laughing. Like, it’s a full on robbery.
Here are their names in NO SPECIFIC ORDER: Florence, Imogen, Thomasin, and Millicent.
