The other Roscente girl
Tumblr media
you're my best friend, I’ll love you forever.
For sake of inclusivity and proper self insertion, you’re an adopted sister. cw: Aria is a bit possessive.
Tumblr media
You were brought into the home after your mother died, she was a common prostitute and an old friend of Aria's mother. Your father was a married nobleman so when she died, naturally, he didn't wish to risk the ire of his wife by bringing an illegitimate child into their home so he did not claim you. Although Carin had married into wealth and privilege, your mother had continued having to live the life she escaped. When she met you, you were on the streets wearing rags while she had been out shopping. Carin felt a little guilty over that and decided to ask permission to take you in as her ward.
Aria never knew her mother to be a philanthropist so she was surprised when her mother brought home a random orphan. She did enjoy how much your presence pissed Mielle off, though. Since one of the young ladies of the house shunned you, you turned to the other. She was wary at first and a little bit threatened (though she'd never admit it), but a certain solidarity was reached between you two when she found out unflattering rumors were being spread about you. That you faced the same prejudice for your status that she did. You were Aria’s only friend in the house, the only one who simply liked her without wanting something from her.
The two of you together are a problem, coming up with all sorts of ways to mess with the people who look down on you two. You’re Aria’s greatest partner in crime because you’ve always been seen as meek and well mannered and you can get away with things she can’t. You’re the first person she ever told about her power and her intentions for Count Roscente and his children. You like her even when she's behaving like a brat and although people consider you the milder daughter, you can be as deviously crafty or maybe even more so.
Aria can get jealous of your friends and likes to remind them in that passive aggressive noble way that they’ll never be as close to you as she is. She might even use the hourglass to pull on their hair and step on their dresses if they piss her off enough. Although the two of you are distinct in style, sometimes the two of you will dress in the same colors, wear matching jewelry or do similar hairstyles. Carin will basically act like that scene in Victorious where Jade goes “They’re identical, look at them” then the camera pans to Andre and Beck. Sometimes she’ll be impressed by you doing something crafty or smart then she’ll go, “well, you are my daughter so it’s only natural you’d be talented.”
Count Roscente might consider you a pet/hobby for his ornamental second wife to amuse herself with but she sees you as her daughter as much as Aria sees you as her genuine sister.
Carin is an admittedly permissive parent but just the same as her biological daughter, you’re still her primary concern. Fuck everyone else, it’s you and Aria she’s looking out for. She wants you to avoid struggling like she and your mother had so despite her carefree nature, she does all she can to set you up for an easy future. Luckily for her, Aria had the same sentiments. When she's crown princess, she intended to make sure you lived in the lap of luxury. But not before she destroyed the house of your father who left you to starve on the streets, right along with the Roscente county.
