@sinamor : ❝ you’re too scared to admit it. when things go bad, you want to explain it away. ❞ tristan thorn ➵ danielle de barbarac.
Tumblr media
danielle faltered at those words. her chest tightened inexplicably. she had never been in denial of what her step-mother was like, cold cruelty and all. but was it truly so terrible to wish for love when she had been close to the only family she had ever known?
...but no, that was not true. not when she knew jacqueline, who was as kind as marguerite was vicious. not when she knew gustav, who had been as a brother to her for many years now. not when paulette, louise, and maurice all had taken part in raising her. why then, was it so impossible to let rodmilla de ghent go?
❝ I do not wish to explain it away... not –– literally, anyway. ❞ she shook her head, looking down at her hands –– man-ish, as rodmilla had once called them. ❝ perhaps it is the child in me, but I wonder if people can change. and then I recall her whippings and I think: perhaps not. ❞ she shared with tristan a small, wry smile. ❝ I know I am naive. but I cannot help it. ❞

↪ memes — accepting!
@unwaivering said: “ i was so innocent back then , before i learned the cruel ways of the world . ” (Arthur Pendragon to Danielle De Barbarac)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
        “With all due respect, Majesty, you speak as though cruelty were the only thing this world has to offer,” Danielle replies carefully in Arthur's own tongue. She's come to learn it is best to offer such respect at first when visiting royalty in other lands, if only for Henry's sake. “But there is yet much beauty to be found in it, and in others, if one is only willing to seek in the right places.”

“Why does it keep trying to bite me?” {Jacqueline for Danielle} @starsallalight
Danielle got between her stepsister and the horse, grabbing the halter and redirecting the horse away from Jacqueline.
"He's trying to get the treat in your hand," Danielle explained.
"Hold your hand completely flat, he won't bite you that way."

Do you mind if I ask your top 10 favorite characters (can be male or female) from all of the media that you loved (can be anime/manga, books, movies or tv series)? And why do you love them? Sorry if you've answered this question before.....Thanks....
I don't mind at all! This is an absolutely HUGE question, though, so I am going to adapt it into a meme that goes around sometimes and just do ten favorite characters from ten different media properties I love, because otherwise I am going to sit here all day frozen with indecision wondering if I'm forgetting someone, or if each character is REALLY worthy of being top ten out of all the media I've consumed in my life.
This got long, so it's under a cut!
Murderbot (The Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells): One of my favorite book series! And I love Murderbot so deeply for so many reasons. It's funny! It's being adopted into everyone's found family and doing so kicking and screaming! It cares deeply about people once it allows itself too! Runner-up in this property is ART, who I love dearly, but really, it couldn't be anyone else but Murderbot itself.
Keladry of Mindelan (The Tortall series by Tamora Pierce): Kel is so stubborn and kind and very subtly funny in a lot of ways, and she's my favorite of the Pierce heroines. She jousts! She adopts everyone and every beast that crosses her path! She gets up to shenanigans with her friends! Just a joy of a character.
Johnny Jaqobis (Killjoys (TV)): I love everyone in this wildly underrated show, but Johnny especially. I've got a weakness for the quippy best-friend-of-the-badass/support character type (see also: Foggy Nelson from Daredevil), and Johnny is such a perfect one. He's funny, he's badass, he pretends to be married to two separate people in the course of the show. What's not to love?
Maia Drazhar (The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison): This book is so good, and Maia is such a good central character of it. He's so kind, so determined to be good in a position that makes it hard to be good or kind, to build connections when he's been denied them his whole life and change things nobody thinks it's possible to change. I love him!
Xena (Xena Warrior Princess): With my love for quippy best friends, you might think Gabrielle would be my favorite, but no, Xena is a competent badass searching for (and, as she goes along, finding) redemption, which is another favorite character type. She's also a badass warrior who's not at all afraid or self-conscious of being emotional and expressing affection, which is a rare and wonderful thing.
Leia Organa (Star Wars): The original trilogy trio are all close to my heart, but Leia just edges the other two out. I've just always loved her banter, how she refuses to be cowed by any situation, and her super cool hairstyles. Very much a I-want-to-be-like-her-when-I-grow-up character since childhood.
Harriet Morton (A Company of Swans by Eva Ibbotson): One of my formative romantic books. Harriet's not too different from Maia, actually, only Maia before becoming emperor and thus not having much power to effect change! She's kind and brave about loving and quietly stubborn, and she's very much in the same type as
Fanny Price (Mansfield Park by Jane Austen): Mansfield Park is nobody's favorite Austen, and Fanny is nobody's favorite Austen heroine, and yet! (I do technically love Persuasion, and probably Anne, more, but I'm not nearly as defensive of either of them, so Fanny's the one I thought of first for this list). She's very much that same character type as Harriet, and I seem to love characters who are clinging to goodness when they don't have much else to cling to.
Alec Hardison (Leverage (TV)): He's so smart and so full of fun quips! And also hot, look, I can be allowed to be a little shallow here. Anyway, I love all the characters in this show, but Hardison absolutely wins out.
Danielle de Barbarac (Ever After): This movie is full of great characters, but I adore Danielle. Determined, good-hearted, willing to carry a prince out of a forest, reader of dense tomes, what's not to love?

@dreamcrs : Henry & Danielle
Tumblr media
Danielle smiled when Henry said her name again, and she took a breath, enjoying the sound of it on his mouth. But she knew it was fleeting. He was everything, and she nothing. He had made that perfectly clear that horrid night where he said those horrid things.
Could she forgive him for it? The real question was how could she not forgive a man who was reacting to a broken heart and a betrayal of trust in one fell swoop? The answer was she couldn’t. But she didn’t know if he had fully forgiven her. What if she had broken his trust beyond repair? What would become of them then?
Then he was holding up something, and Danielle gasped as she saw her mother’s shoe. She had lost it when she had ran away, and her shoe had been without it’s match ever since.
“Where did you find that?”
She listened to him speak before feeling the tears well up in her eyes, and she turned to walk away from him and to sit down upon a rock nearby.
“It belongs to a peasant, Your Highness, who only pretended to be a courtier to save a man’s life.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Yes." Henry replied, kneeling before her. "I know."
Jacqueline had told him everything. And with her help, he and his parents had come up with a plan. Those two girls would be safe now, so long as he drew breath. Rodmila and Marguerite would never touch them again.
"And the name's Henry, if you don't mind."
Chuckling softly, and taking a moment to rub his lips together, Henry swallowed thickly and lifted the hem of her dress ever so slightly just so he could take hold of her foot. Slipping one of her brown leather shoes off, he slid the slippery she had dropped at the masque back onto her foot.
"I kneel before you not as a prince, but as a man in love. But I would feel like a king if you, Danielle de Barbarac, would be my wife."

One Dress a Day Challenge
We have arrived at the final day of my challenge!  This is the first time I’ve actually started a challenge and seen it through to the end.  And since I started this a few days in to 2021, I’m playing catch up for the last day.  Here are 10 more movie costumes that I love...and they didn’t make the original list either because there wasn’t space, or the more obvious answer of me not realizing I wanted it on the list until it was too late!
So here are my final additions:
Indiscreet- Ingrid Bergman as Anna Kalman: Could find a HQ full-length pic of this gorgeous coat, or it’s matching dress...so this was the best I could do!
Ever After- Drew Barrymore as Danielle de Barbarac: There were just too many choices during the “blue month” and sadly, this got left behind.
North by Northwest- Eva Marie Saint as Eve Kendall: Love this dress and want to own it...not pictured: the deep v neckline.
The Last Duel- Jodie Comer as Margueritte de Carrouges: I saw this movie for the first time about a month ago and had to include this amazing fur-trimmed cape!
Meet Me in St. Louis- Mary Astor as Anna Smith: Same issue as the Ever After dress: there are just too many gorgeous blue movie dresses!  And I love her hat.
White Christmas- Rosemary Clooney and Vera Ellen as Betty and Judy Haynes: I was watching this movie before Christmas and had to shame myself for forgetting about all the gorgeous dresses these girls’ wear.  Betty’s black dress is unbelievable, and Judy’s pink dress is so gorgeous.
Crimson Peak- Mia Wasikowska as Edith Cushing: Honestly, I just wasn’t sure where to put this robe, in terms of color...but I just love the fact that she’s wearing an open-knit robe with fringe.
The Night Manager- Aure Atika as Sophie Alekan: So, I wanted to include this on my list originally, but I could not find any decent pictures!  And then miraculously, managed to find one last week...random.  But anyway, the movie has so many gorgeous maxi dresses and green dress with silver trim is *chef’s kiss*
Funny Face- Audrey Hepburn as Jo Stockton: This movie has almost too many gorgeous outfits to choose from!!  This is actually one of my favorites, but I sadly forget about it sometimes, because it’s not included in the modeling montage.\
And that’s that!! 
Hope everyone had fun reading my random fashion comments. :)

- “In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.” Pride and Prejudice

- “He loved me. He'd loved me as long as he he'd known me! I hadn't loved him as long perhaps, but now I loved him equally well, or better. I loved his laugh, his handwriting, his steady gaze, his honorableness, his freckles, his appreciation of my jokes, his hands, his determination that I should know the worst of him. And, most of all, shameful though it might be, I loved his love for me.” Ella Enchanted
- “There are few people whom I really love, and still fewer of whom I think well. The more I see of the world, the more am I dissatisfied with it; and every day confirms my belief of the inconsistency of all human characters, and of the little dependence that can be placed on the appearance of merit or sense.” Pride and Prejudice

@magebastard tagged me  to name the fictional characters that remind me of/that i project onto my oc and i uhhhhh had to do la’ara so:
1. Kaydel Co Connix, Star Wars  Determined, principled, ready to jump into action, but also ready to admit wrongdoing when that action is based upon incorrect assumptions. Found family is the answer.
2. Kuriyama Mirai, Beyond the Boundary Awkward and intense at the same time, and a hopeless romantic.
3. Isolde(Iseult/Yseult), from the various legends Devoted in love, sometimes beyond the point of reason. 
4. Tristan (Tristran in the book), Stardust Unsure of the truth of their desire, but gains confidence through the completion of a quest.
5. Luthien Tinuviel, Tolkien’s Legendarium Will challenge death for the sake of a beloved, and are more powerful than they appear. Abiding love of nature.
6. Danielle de Barbarac, Ever After Confidence comes only after reaching the lowest point, they’ve always been strong but need an external event to make them realize.
7. Tachibana Mei, Say I Love You Closed off at first, shy and pained by previous experiences, awkward in love but still deeply romantic.
8. Hiccup, How to Train Your Dragon Needing validation, takes time to grow into their power and station; once sure of themselves, however, they can do things they had never expected.
9. Anne Elliot, Persuasion Anxious, unwilling to believe in themselves as an object of affection, despite craving that affection. Attempts to see the good in others at all times, even when put upon. 
I taaaaaag @ottobooty @brother-genitivi @bigcheezey @saltybiowarefantears @zevrn @palipunk but no pressure! tryna pick people who haven’t done it yet uwu

Country manners
It's so funny watching adaptions of historical romances when you have been taught a little Regency -to -Edwardian etiquette, because though I would not pass muster myself, it still allows you to be pleasantly scandalised by things that just don't matter at all nowadays, but do often go 'wrong' to make things more relatable to the modern audience. Such as:
Where is that girl's Hat. Not So Much As A Bonnet.
No gloves *faints*
But they have not Been Introduced!
He is Writing to Her. Without So Much as Parental Permission!
Ladies Do Not Answer Their Own Doors, Not Even To A Prince, Danielle de Barbarac, you're behaving like a scullery maid indeed
Where are their chaperones where Are They
Put your Hair Up You Look Like A Trollop
A Lady does Not Wear Lipstick, Rose DeWitt-Buckater, You Are In Fact A Trollop!
She is not riding sidesaddle what If She Loses Her Virginity
But is he A Gentleman?
They are Drinking Water in London Do They Wish to Die of Cholera Bring More Wine
That is a Waltz They're Basically Having Sex
Again Mr. Laurence, You Cannot Take Jo Out Unchaperoned What Of Her Reputation
That Nanny Poppins is Entirely Out of Line
All the Ladies in This Modern Day Written Regency Romance Are Wearing Lipstick and Are They All Dancing Girls Who Signed Off On This. Whores Everywhere
Why is This Married Woman Not Covering Her Hair What Does This Signify?
You Indeed DO Need To Wear A Corset You Can't Go Without A Bra You Couldn't Do That Now Either, Not In A Professional Setting

Originally posted by hellomadelene
1. Favorite food/cuisine?
Pasta is my life.  Also Chicken Parm.
2. Where do you want to live?
If I had to live anywhere but California, Dublin and New York City would be the only other places I could see myself.
3. All time favorite TV show or Movie?
Mmm, I have several, but I’m gonna pick one from my top four.  Ever After (1998) is one of the few movies I could watch over and over and never get tired of.
4. What are you most looking forward for the remainder of 2017?
Graduating from my post-grad program and applying to be able to work in my field.
5. What is your dream job?
A speech therapist who teaches high school English and History would probably be a dream job.  That or a traveling author.
6. Matched or mismatched socks?
Matched.  I’d go without socks if I had to wear mismatched.  That being said, as long as they are the same type of socks, I’m fine.  I’ll wear two left socks if need be, but not two different types.
7. Favorite season of the year?
Autumn.
8. Favorite character(s)?
I feel like I get this question a lot.  And I have so many, so here’s a selection:  Scorpius Malfoy, Emma Swan, Mazikeen, Milo Thatch, James Pleiades Hawkins, Danielle De Barbarac, Chloe Decker, Lucifer Morningstar, Emma Woodhouse, April Ludgate, Jessica Jones, Mon-El, Kara Danvers, Dimitri, Lemon Breeland, and Greg Serrano.  I have so many more, but I think that’s a good selection.
9. Favorite Disney princess?
Merida and Kida are my favorites.  As for classic princesses, probably Aurora.
10. Ice Skating or Roller Skating?
Both terrify me, but I do a teensy bit better ice skating.
11. What show got you into fandoms?
Well shows got me into fandom later than books did...  Avatar the Last Airbender got me into internet fandom life in general for TV and as a content creator, and Vampire Diaries got me into tumblr fandoms, but just as a consumer of content.
--
1. What is your favorite place in the world?
2. Which tv show you loved got cancelled before its time?
3. What book or series do you wish you could force everyone into reading?
4. Rain or Sunshine?

1, 3, 4, 7, 11, 16, 18, 26, 30, 32, 36, 40 (I can't be patient!)
1: Currently ReadingThe Power of Silence by Cardinal SarahMary: the Church at the Source by Ratzinger and von BalthasarMaria: Pope Benedict XVI on the Mother of GodLittle Britches: Father and I Were Ranchers by Ralph MoodyTimeline by Michael ChrichtonThe Sword of Shannara by Terry BrooksAll Creatures Great and Small by James Heriot
3: First book that had a major influence on youIt’s such a tired answer, but Harry Potter was the book revolution. I was eleven. The next year I read Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee and that was a life changing experience. Before that, everything’s kind of hazy. I know I had obsessions, but they didn’t last.
4: Quick, you’re in desperate need of a fake name. What character name do you think of first?Danielle de Barbarac. And that’s not even a book character, hah.
7: What is the most important part of a book, in your opinion?The ending usually decides how much I like a book, but each part is important in its own way - it’s harsh to separate them.
11: What book fandom do you affiliate yourself with the most?I am, at base, a Potterhead and a Trekkie (and the original TOS novels were a big part of my induction to Trekdom.) Right now I’m very much into the Queen’s Thief books by Megan Whalen Turner. 
16: Rant about anything book relatedGame of Thrones: burn it and all its relations with fire.
18: Favorite booktuber(s)I don’t watch any.
26: Do you read from recommendations or whatever book catches your eye?Both.
30: One book everyone should readA Canticle for Leibowitz. (I just picked out of a hat, I could as easily have said something else.)
32: OTP or NoTP?BROtp.
36: Unpopular opinionsSlash is never cool. #stopplatonicloveerasure
40: Has there ever been a book you wish you could un-read?His Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullman

Alternate ending: Danielle and Jacqueline escape together and make their own way. @starsallalight
Danielle had arrived in the dead of night at the manor, she had no home to return to. But she hoped at least that she still had Jaqueline as a sister.
So when the younger of her two step sister's appeared holding two bundles of previsions, Danielle hugged her and took Jaqueline's hand before the pair disappeared into the night.
Over the next several months, Danielle and Jaqueline worked together to scape the money together to open their own dress shop in Paris.
Both girls knew how to sew, and Jaqueline was an absolute artist when it came to embroidery, so it only made sense for them to work together.
Within the year, they were one of the most sought after dress makers in Paris. Fine young ladies flocked to their shop for the finest gowns to show off at court.
Danielle was so proud of her sister, she had come so far from the spoiled daughter of a baroness.
They were sisters now, and that was all Danielle wanted.

Last movie you watched: 'Particle fever’ but is a documentary not a movie
