I saw your Regency ask and couldn't stop myself from asking for an Isobel x Alcina snippet. You don't have to do it at all but I would love to see something with them. They're the ones you see together right?
The beautiful Isobel Claymoore is from the absolutely amazing @vahnyawrites.
"Do you ride?"
The soft, slightly accented, question pops over from over her left shoulder. Her entire body stiffening accordingly as she turns her head to meet cool emerald. One brow raising instinctively at the surprising sight that greets her.
Long raven black hair was kept away from an elegant face in a simple up-do. Fair skin standing out against the deep black of the suit the woman before her was wearing. Her entire aura screaming power as she patiently awaits for Isobel to answer.
"Is that any of your business?"
Her words don't get the desired affect, however, as the woman simply smiles. Amusement clearly dancing within sparkling emerald as she shifts to lean against the fence. Her tall form easily allowing for easy purchase against the wooden frame.
"I suppose not," she replies with a small inclination of her head. "I must admit I was intrigued. As I've never seen someone stare at passing horses so intently."
Frowning, Isobel crosses her arms. "I wasn't staring, madam."
The woman smirks. "I'll take you at your word." There's a small beat of silence before the woman grins. Amusement, tinged with mischief, sparking within her eyes. "I apologize for being so cavalier in my attentions towards you."
Stepping away from the fence, the woman proffers her hand. "Alcina Mercier."
Hesitating for a moment, Isobel takes the hand and shakes. "Isobel Claymoore."
"The town pariah?"
"The French Duchess?"
Once again her response, and tone, only elicits an amused chuckle from Alcina. "There's no need to respond in such a manner, Isobel. I assure you that I find your reputation quite refreshing." Alcina barely contains an eyeroll. "Especially when you take into consideration my prospective betrothed preferred company."
Isobel arches a brow. "That bad?"
"No." Alcina smiles. "Worse."
Before Isobel is able to respond, Alcina turns her attention away from her. Keen emerald eyes watching the passing mounts with something akin to warmth.
"Now do you know how to ride, Isobel?"
Pursing her lips, for only a moment, she finally relents. "No."
Warm emerald meets narrowed brown. "Would you like to?"
Finally got around to reading your demo and it was incredible! Hooked from the first sentence, already love both Leir and Odile, beautiful UI, everything is so aesthetically pleasing, and your writing is absolutely immaculate 👌🏻 *chef's kiss* Can't commend you enough! Very excited for more ✨

I just wanted to say thank you so much for reblogging and recommending my story!! I feel a little starstruck, as I've been following your blog for so long, and I love your writing so far! I'm excited to see where Love & Friendship goes, as well as Stygian. I love how different they are.
Also, LOST IN AUSTEN!! truly an iconic series, thanks for reminding me! ✨
Hi!! OMG of course! I’m so excited for Out of the Blue! I’ve been craving a game like Lost in Austen and yessss, in love with everything I’ve seen so far! The art breeders for the ROs, immaculate!! Gonna make choosing one ro impossible haha
also ah!!! tysm!! I feel starstruck to hear that🙈🙈🙈 haha I still get weirdly embarrassed sharing anything about my writing but I’m so glad to hear that<333
For Quinn, the love of my life, how would you feel about me showering you with love and affection? 🥺👉🏻👈🏻 😍
“I’d be honored, sweetheart,” they reply with their version an easy going smile. “Anything you’re willing to share with me I’m honored by. The simple fact that you wish to share you love with me is more than enough for me to accept.”
What would our beloved ROs be in a Regency Era AU?
I have no idea honestly but I imagine this ask stems from @vahnyawrites (who has an absolutely wonderful story).
I'll try my best to answer this.
Christian: He would be from a highly influential family that has a lot of stock in the various business practices of their local market. Though I could see his family wishing to expand their horizons in the form of an arranged marriage with the affluent Mercier family from France. Wherein he meets the eldest child-- Duchess Alcina Mercier.
Alcina: Since Alcina is French in canon, I could definitely see that playing a part in this AU. Being a French Duchess (or some other title) that is visiting England due to her upcoming nuptials with Christian Anderson. A woman that definitely tests the boundaries of what is considered proper.... while having a blast doing so.
Stephen: Your childhood best friend. One that many believe would be your chosen spouse when you come of age. A joke that has since grown between the both of you. Is it a joke? That's only for you to say. Stephen would be from a fairly notable house but nothing of true distinction, but his life is one many wished they could have.
Quinn: An officer from the Royal Navy returning home to visit their old commanding officer, Christian Anderson, as they try to forget the ghosts of their past. Quinn is from a well-off family but they've never found wealth to be the most important thing. Returning to England is a choice filled with various results. Some of which they're not sure they like.
Lmao! "If you've heard a Karen going skydiving" when I tell you I spit my drink out laughing 😂😂 I'm so happy you're excited for the story!! 🥺 Thank you for all your reblogs, I've really enjoyed reading your tags. Also, I'm basically in love with your OOTB OC 👉🏻👈🏻 Claudia is absolute goals 😍
akamkaakwkakoakakama that might've been one of my best comedian phrases lol (and the image of it it's just 💀)
And I'm so excited for your story!! I've been craving to read a good, promising Regency romance and I happened to stumble to your story and 🤩🤩🤩🤩 (especially after Choices ruined D&D3 for the sake of moneygrab 😭. I'll never forgive them) I had so much fun reading the small dribbles and imagines!! I'm so torn between Clara and Isobel 😭 wHY do I have to choose between the milf and the redhead?! It's simply rude™ and I looooved creating her at 6 am bc insomnia wheee and I have now so many ideas! Your story now lives in my mind rent free and I don't want it to leave
Claudia is one of the MCs i'm most excited to develop once the story starts releasing! I really cannot wait for the demo to come so I can go down a rabbit hole of hcs and daydreaming ✨ i'm so glad you liked my girl! I'm looking forward her meeting everybody (and calling some rancios carantorcha lol)
I'll be looking forward your demo! Thank you for reaching out 🥺💕
