#is that everyone assumes you won't bother lying because you're so bad at it

Note
Yandere AM is cruel. But what kinds of yanderes would the main 5 be? Who would be safer to be with? (Plot twist it's neither of them/hj)
i love how since you don't know me well, you assume that the very mild version of yandere AM i showed so far is cruel to you.
The Five as yanderes
Ellen (book leaning)
The emotional type.
Ellen is the only one who kept some of her humanity. She still cares about the others. And she cares about you so, so much... All because you've shown her kindness the others don't show her anymore.
No, to the others, she's scum. She's aware of that. She knows they only really bother to take care of her because she let them all use her body. She's accepted that it was her only real value for the rest of the group. Well, maybe except for Benny, Benny was nice to her most of the time.
But you? You felt bad for how the others treated her. You offered her a shoulder to cry on. You offered to hold her, let everything out. And she missed being loved. She missed being cared for and held.
She becomes addicted to it. To you. She wants all of your attention, all of your affection, all of your love.
She'll scream. She'll cry. She'll beg.
She loves you. She needs you.
And she'll do anything in her power to make sure she gets you.
Gorrister (game and book mixed)
The wifebeater violent type.
There's very little left of what Gorrister used to be. A once passionate man who then lost himself, first to how his life turned out and then to that damn computer. He was now heartless, both literally and figuratively.
And yet, it would seem a certain kind of passion was... re-awakened in Gorrister. All because of your sweet self.
You tried so hard to reach inside him again. To try and find the man he once was. You could say you succeded, in a way. A very hurtful way, sadly.
Gorrister was now an angry man with an unhealthy attachment to you. He wanted you all to himself, no matter what he'd have to do to keep the small spark of light in his life.
And if beating you was the only way to get you to work with him? That's what he's gonna do, darling.
Ted (book and game mixed)
The manipulative type.
Ted is an expert at lying and manipulating people for his advantage. Especially now. He's a charmer, really! And you're just so easy for him, so nice, so sweet... He loves it.
He manages to wrap you around his little finger. He'll convince you that he's your knight in shining armor, that he's your only real friend, that you can depend on him, that he'll protect you...
He's your only friend around there, really! The only person you can really trust!
He's possessive and has a tendency to objectify his partners. Especially women. His mind was a truly dark place now, seeing as he barely respected anyone at this rate. You have to listen through his rants about how all the others are affected by AM and how he's the only sane one. He'll insult everyone, you included.
And then he'll gaslight you into thinking he's right and that you're slowly losing your mind because of AM. He's your only true beacon of hope, your only link to sanity.
And you'll do everything for him, won't you?
Benny
The worshiping type.
Poor Benny doesn't really understand love anymore, due to all the damage AM caused to his brain. But he understands all the kindness you've shown him. He knows you were the one who comforted him through all the pain caused by that damn machine.
Especially since you'd try to chase after him and help save him from more pain. You did your best for him, and he took your kindness when he could, his brain warping it into a worship-like obsession.
It starts off innocent. If he managed to find something "nice", he'd bring it to you. He would follow you, seek you out, do anything for your attention to be on him exclusively, even if he had to pull you away from the others and hold you down to cuddle him.
And he's very physically strong. He's not letting go, you're the most important person in his life, after all. The others need to learn that, too. Or he'll use those teeth AM gave him to rip their guts out.
But hey, their hearts would be a great offering for you.
To show just how great his love to you is.
Nimdok
The twó-faced type.
He's an old man who barely remembers anything about his past. You naturally want to help him, don't you? Of course you do, you're such a kind person...
But the truth is, even without his memory, you can never take the cruelty out of a monster. And he worked with doctor Mengele himself, he may not be as bad as the Angel of Death himself, but he's definitely no saint.
For you, though, he's just a poor old man that AM torments alongside the others. But the others...?
Well, he might not remember what he did, but he sure remembers how to be a scary motherfucker and how to form his incredibly detailed, whispered threats to make them all leave you alone. And of course, he will make those threats come true if needed.
You have no clue, of course. You think he's a sweet old man, the only one who's actually nice to you, unlike the others who push you away.
And the others... they get to see his true colors.

I love how despite the party trying to shake the secrets out of Colin, no one has made an Insight check against anything he’s said about himself yet, which means that technically, nothing he’s said actually has to be true.  It doesn’t mean it’s not, but if it wasn’t, who’s to say?

Y/N's POV
I was currently at my high school.
I had just finished my studies in the library and it was already evening but I decided to stay longer today as my boyfriend was training with his friends in the basket hall. But it was fine because it was already pretty late and the boys should be finished now and I could finally see Sunwoo.
We have been dating for six months and I feel very comfortable with him, it almost feels like I found the one I wanna be with for the rest of my life.
Even if I don't know him for so long, he gives me strength, the thing I had never had.
I'm delicate but I tend to hide my feelings in front of people that I don't trust.
Lately something confusing is going on. Sunwoo has been weirdly avoiding me, and his friends that I assume to really like me too, also act very suspicious sometimes.
They would take him away from me to talk to him alone.
I would just be confused and worried about what was going on.
But today I would talk to them about it!
Right in the moment I was walking through the school halls, on my way to them, but I heard loud voices that sounded like they were seriously discussing.
Before I opened the door, I heard my name and was even more concerned.
I figured it would be smarter to just listen to it and wait while hiding.
"Sunwoo, you can't lie to her forever! She is a great person, she doesn't deserve this anymore. Actually she never did."
I sensed the one who said this was Juyeon and he sounded very serious about what he was talking about.
My anxiety started to kick in.
What was I going to hear next?
"I know, she would never deserve this. But I really do like her. I could just keep it as my secret." Now Sunwoo talked, he sounded like he meant what he said.
But what was the damn secret they were talking about? How bad was it?
"Oh wow Sunwoo! You finally fell in love, congrats. Just sad that she was only a game to you in the beginning. You decided to play with the wrong heart." Juyeon said in a very loud and angry tone.
Was he trying to protect me?
"He's right, you should tell her before it will be too much and she finds out herself. Honestly, I hoped she would break up with you because you can be an egoistic ass sometimes!" Now Jacob exclaimed.
"Yeah, I'm sorry guys. But I can't. I will lose her if I tell her that she was a bet. I will lose her, and she will hate me. I couldn't handle that."
I gasped quietly, pressing my palm on my mouth to stay silent.
It was pretty much to take.
My boyfriend just confessed that I was just a bet!? Someone who No one cares about. That's what I was for them.
"But you have to Sunwoo, she's too pure. You will break her. You know she has no one that would take care of her. She was new and lonely when she came here. You made her feel safe and now you're doing this to her? She will never forgive you and feel safe with you again." Juyeon scolded and as I watched them through a little split between the door of the gym hall I saw him grabbing Sunwoo by the collar of his muscle shirt aggressively, having dangerous sparkles in his eyes.
"Either you will do it or I will! And maybe one of us will take her from you. Someone who cares about her heart and feelings." Juyeon grabbed him harder and shook him.
I couldn't watch and hear that any longer so I decided to interrupt their fight.
I abruptly swung the door open, earning all of the boy's eyes.
I approached them pretty fast and pushed Juyeon from Sunwoo.
I didn't want them to hurt each other, although probl all I was for them was a little doll to play with.
"Stop. This is kindergarten. You all are so immature, I can't believe it." I sighed heavily.
Then I locked eyes with Sunwoo, staring in his soul mercilessly.
"You really never would have told me? God, it is really frustrating when you find out, you never knew who your only friends really are. You are little boys, all you care about is fun. Grow the fuck up!" I scoffed at my broken state.
Being ashamed that I had let them do so much to me already.
I looked at all of them. Sunwoo, Juyeon, Jacob, Kevin and Eric. I was honestly disappointed.
And they were also guiltily looking back at me.
"What? Are you enjoying seeing me suffer under your game?" I asked.
"Look Y/N, we are truly sorry for what we did. I know it was immature and I promise we will make it up to you."
I scoffed again at Juyeon's words with a weak sarcastic smile on my lips.
"Do you think I still want to hang out with you guys? You betrayed me. I'm not dumb, I know you sprayed rumours around about me, just so everyone was going to keep their distance to me. And I think you didn't even realize that you did this so you had me just to yourself. While I was too blind of happiness. I hate you for what you did. I won't be your puppet any longer!" I made clear while my vision started to blurry because my eyes were getting teary.
Sunwoo grabbed my arm in desperation.
"Please don't break up with me." His begging voice sent a shiver down my spine.
"That's all you have to say? I think it would be the best if I would leave you and your games alone."
Tears started silently rolling down my cheeks.
But still, no one was talking or reacting. Just pleading eyes were looking at me.
"I wonder who will be the next victim. Whatever, I hope you will have your fun." I smiled pathetically and turned around.
"Don't leave us Y/N. We love you and never wanted to hurt you." Juyeon's calming voice stopped my movements.
I looked at him again.
"You love me so much that you forget how to care about my feelings? I loved you too, but it's over for now." I stated and left the hall.
They looked after me in sadness.
Third person's POV
"See what you did, Sunwoo!" Eric pushed him to the ground.
Sunwoo looked down, letting his tears fall on the ground as well.
"Now we all lost the only girl we ever liked!" Juyeon kicked Sunwoo in his stomach, making him clench his jaw in pain.
"Stop, Y/N doesn't like when we hurt someone, especially each other." Kevin wanted to stop him from hitting the crying boy on the ground by grabbing his arm.
But he wouldn't budge and continued, making him bleed and bruised all over.
"She is gone now!" Juyeon yelled and kicked Sunwoo again, earning quiet cries and groans from him.
"It's enough!" Jacob shoved him away from the almost defaced Sunwoo.
"You can't hurt your best friend!" He reminded him with a strong tone.
"But he stole the girl that was supposed to be mine. It's his fault she left us!" Juyeon defended himself.
"We all lost her, Juyeon. But you don't have to hurt Sunwoo even more. Don't you see him?"
Juyeon now looked at him, sitting on the ground, still crying, with bruises all over his body and a bleeding nose and lip.
Now he felt slightly sorry for overdoing it, although he knew that Sunwoo's beloved girlfriend just broke up with him. That alone surely were so painful for him already.
Of course it was too much to handle for him.
After all Juyeon is the older one and he should have kept his control instead of beating him up.
And Sunwoo had even endured it, he did not flinch a single time that Juyeon punched him.
"Hey, sorry bro." He tapped his shoulder in apology.
"I will take you home, come on." Jacob helped him to stand up so they could walk to his car.
•the next day•
Sunwoo walked through the busy halls of his high school.
He was sad, angry at himself and depressed.
He loved her so bad but he screwed up.
And he understood why Juyeon beat him up yesterday, he was glad so he wouldn't have to hurt himself for a while.
His head was down and the playful smile he always wore was completely gone.
Suddenly he felt a small hand grab him, that pulled him to the narrow room where stuff for the facility manager was.
He couldn't make out the face of the person that took him there until she was standing face to face with him in this room.
Now his eyes glowed, it was the prettiest face he had ever seen.
It was his girl, the one that broke his heart just yesterday. But all he cared about was that she was standing in front of him now.
Y/N's POV
It was me, and he had broken my heart even more.
"Who did this to you?" I wanted to know instantly, coming straight to the point.
"Huh?" He was surprised I even talked to him.
"Who beat you up like this?" I exerted more pressure in my voice.
"Oh, um.." Sunwoo looked down, suddenly so shy and insecure.
What was going on?
Usually he was the one that would do this to people that bothered him, but he would never let someone do this to his handsome face.
I wondered if his face was the only affected place on his body, so I slowly lifted up his thin t-shirt, exposing hurted muscles and bruises all over his stomach.
It looked really painful.
I never saw him being hurt that much. And it also affected me.
To know that I hadn't had protected him, made me feel guilty.
I felt bad.
"Sunwoo, who the fuck did this to you? And why did you let this even happen?"
He was looking in my eyes, down at me, not sure if he should tell the truth.
But I think he learned his lesson, lying is bad and has consequences.
"It was Juyeon. But it's fine, I allowed him." He talked unusually quietly and I didn't like it at all. I hated it.
I wanted my confident Boyfriend back that wanted to hold my hand the whole day and whenever he had the chance, kissed me to give me his love and affection.
Where was the old Sunwoo?
"Why?"
How could Juyeon do this to him?
He, no, all of them knew what I thought of physical aggression.
"I miss you Y/N." He cried in the crook of my neck after he had made a quick step forward.
When I didn't move, he put his hands around my waist and hugged me gently.
"It's been one day." I reminded him.
He could have handled that.
"Yes, but I know that I lost you forever." He hugged me tighter.
I heard him sniff his tears back.
"Why do you care so much?" I started patting his back lightly.
Even though he hurted me so much with his actions, I still cared about him. More than about anyone else.
"Because I love you Y/N."
He really did?
I knew he and his friends were a little obsessed with me, but he never actually said these three words.
And now I even knew, he wasn't the only one that had serious feelings for me.
Juyeon had done this to him because he was angry at Sunwoo that I left him, and also his friends.
I figured that he did this because he also had feelings for me. I could judge only by his look and body language the day before. And I wasn't sure if that was a good thing.
Iliked him too, everyone of them, but not the way I liked Sunwoo. It would make things even more complicated between us.
"Why did you do this to me then?"
Sunwoo backed away a little, so he could see my face properly.
"We didn't know you when we started this. But when we got to know you, each of us felt something. I guess we just weren't aware that we were having feelings for you because we never really had some for anybody. So we were toxic and manipulated you and everyone that was interested in you, so no one would steal you from us. And I'm so so sorry, baby. I wanna have you back, I promise I changed."
I was impressed that he had explained everything so truthfully.
And I was proud in some way.
He had always controlled me, but he also always was my little boy.
They all were clingy and needy around me, just how someone would act when they liked someone.
I think I could forgive him if he would prove to me that he had really changed.
But could I forgive Juyeon for doing this to his best friend, for losing his self control and letting him down like this?
"And why let you Juyeon hurt you? You are supposed to be kind to each other, as friends. He truly hurt you. Look." I stroked my thumb over his lip where a little bit of dried blood was left.
On his left cheek was a big, green and blue bruise that went up to his eye. It was a bit swollen and he couldn't open his left eye completely.
I forgot everything around me and just admired his his cute baby face. Even if he looked a bit tired and miserable, I still found him utterly adorable.
"I wanna kiss you, Y/N." He whispered, when I noticed our position and that he was staring at me as well.
But I just didn't care anymore what he had done to me, I was sorry for what his friend did to him and that he was sad because I left him.
So I shove all my doubts away and tiptoed so I could kiss his full lips to convince my heart, that I had to give him another chance. It was everything I wanted at this moment.
I think I loved this boy.
Although it was probably pretty stupid of me to trust him again, I just needed him too much because he was everything I had and everything I always wanted.
He pressed me against his toned body and gave me a kiss full of love, to show me that I wouldn't regret choosing him over everything.

//Day 28//
//Childhood Friends//
Every summer since she could remember, Marinette would go to Gotham with her mother, father and uncle Jagged.
When she was in the city, her uncle would take her to visit his friend Bruce. He had kids as well and when the adults would talk, Marinette would play Acrobats with Dick and later she would play Detectives with Tim. This was years before she met Damian or Jason.
The summer before Marinette turned ten, she met Damian. She entered the Wayne's home with her uncle, when she noticed a boy around her age glaring at her from behind a door. When she blinked he was gone.
Not thinking much of it, Marinette proceeded to find Tim. Despite the boy being 17 now, Tim was happy to play Detectives with Marinette.
In the middle of their game, Marinette spotted the boy peeking around the corner and staring at the two. She smiled back at him, only to be given a confused look.
Marinette was not one to exclude someone from a game so she got up and approached the boy, "Hi, I'm Marinette Dupain-Cheng. What's your name?"
The boy was quiet for a second, before he said in a slightly haughty voice, "I'm Damian. What are you doing?"
Marinette smiled, "We're playing Detectives, do you -"
Damian cut her off, "What are you doing here, I meant. Who is that man with you?"
She stopped, feeling slightly hurt. Tim, upon noticing the girls expression, butt in, "Marinette has been coming to the Manor every summer since she was a baby, her uncle is a family friend. Don't be rude, Damian, for once in your life."
Tim turned to Marinette, "Sorry about him, he's… Paranoid, to say the least."
Marinette brightened up, "It's alright, if I saw a random girl come into my house, I'd be suspicious, too."
…..
Later that day, Damian approached Marinette, "I'm sorry for how I acted, Miss Dupain-Cheng. It was wrong of me to assume the worst."
She smiled back at him, "It's alright. Maybe, we can be friends?"
And Damian agreed.
For the rest of the summer, the two were attached to the hip, causing mischief all around the Manor. Not that Bruce minded, at least Damian could act like a child.
When Marinette left for Paris at the end of the break, Damian was back to his gloomy self and Bruce decided the friendship between the two was good.
And that was the start of the Wayne's going to Paris for winter break.
…..
When Marinette was thirteen, she met Jon. Damian's new best friend.
While she wasn't jealous, Marinette did wish she only lived a city away from Gotham so she could see her friends more often.
But as soon as she and Jon talked to each other (and decided that they could all be best friends together (despite Damian insisting they are just friendly acquaintances of his)) the three of them got on like a house on fire. Damian was acting even more like a kid, which made Bruce ecstatic.
When Marinette left for home and Jon left for Metropolis for the school year, Damian went back to his broody self.
'Next time we go to Paris,' Bruce thought, 'Let's bring the Kents along with us.'
…..
Every winter break Damian and Marinette would go ice skating, bringing Jon along just made it more fun.
They talked about everything, even the new girl in Marinette's class who lied about everything. At that point Lila was still 'in Achu' so Marinette want too bothered about her.
…..
When Marinette was 18, she went to Gotham for the first time during the school year. As class president, she was in charge of organising school trips, so with the permission from her teacher and the principal she was able to get the class a trip to Gotham.
She tried to keep it on the downlow, knowing how if he heard about the trip, Bruce would tell the school how they won a competition or something for the trip of a lifetime, just so he could keep Marinette and her friends in luxury.
And somehow, Bruce did hear about the trip and did exactly that.
He upgraded the group to first class on the plane, booked nice hotel rooms, got the class very exclusive tours around the city and gave them tickets to the upcoming Wayne Gala (all of which Lila took credit for). He even offered to give Marinette's whole class spending money, to which she shut down immediately, "You're already giving us too much, Uncle Bruce."
What Marinette didn't know was that Bruce knew exactly what the situation was like in Marinette's class and he planned to deal with it his way.
…..
When everyone heard about the Gala, immediately Marinette was bombarded with requests for clothes, she repeated what she had said hundreds of times before, "I'm sorry but it's far too short notice."
Throughout the week in Gotham, Marinette had seen several members of the Wayne family operating tours for her group. She was suspicious, but once she noticed how they were silently making lasting impressions on her classmates and poking small holes in Lila's lies, Marinette realised what their plan was, or at least what part of their plan was. Subtly reveal themselves to be Wayne's at the Gala after Lila had been telling lies about them during tours they had operated themselves.
In fact, Marinette thought it was brilliant, but she didn't even realise the last part.
……
On the night of the Gala, the class was waiting in the lobby for Marinette. Mlle. Bustier wouldn't let them forget her a third time so they were all waiting for her.
Each of them were wearing old clothes that were designed by Marinette but were not suitable for a Gala.
The boys wore wrinkled suits in brown and grey colours, despite the dress code being black tie.
The girls wore old dresses of Marinette's although they were much too casual for the event.
Lila and Alya however, were both wearing old dresses of Alya's designed by Marinette, too, but they had been drastically altered.
Alya's dress used to be a simple sunset orange swing dress with the special signature on the hem. However, now, it had been cut to be above the knee with a badly sewn hem making it lose its graceful shape. Someone had gotten hold of a bedazzler and added rhinestones to the bodice.
Lila's dress used to be a maxi green dress with lace sleeves and a jewel neckline. Now, the sleeves were cut off, the skirt had a large cut down the side and the neckline was cut so awkwardly it seems like the dress was unfinished.
Both girls seemed to think their dresses were the best of the class and they didn't let their faces hide their smug pride.
When the elevator door opened they're smug faces dropped.
Out came Marinette wearing a beautiful midnight blue evening gown with a tulle bottom and a detailed featherlike bodice.
Her hair was in a low bun with feather shaped silver hair clips decorating it.
Her shoes were simple midnight blue high heels.
Lila started laughing at Marinette, despite her jealousy, "Overdressed much, Marinette?"
With her the class started laughing.
Marinette just smiled and said nothing.
…..
The ride up to Wayne Manor was not at all pleasant, despite the over the top limo Bruce had sent. Every single conversation was how poor Lila wouldn't be able to see her Damiboo because he was gone to Achu for the month.
That was a lie if Marinette ever heard one.
When they arrived, Lila and Alya were the first out of the limo, followed by the rest of the class. When they saw what the other guests were wearing the class felt bad about laughing at Marinette's outfit. Each outfit was trying to one up the others in obscurity or beauty. They passed a woman with a taxidermied peacock on her shoulder, several men in tuxedos and a woman in a dress that matched her lipstick perfectly.
However, when they reached the door of the Manor, where the Wayne's were greeting guests, they saw all the tour guides they had for the week and were bad mouthing. Each and every one of them was a Wayne.
But the person who was most horrified was Lila, she had been lying about being friends with the Wayne's all week to their own faces.
Just as they were about to enter the Manor, the biggest man, Jason, stopped them, "Oh you must be the class from Paris. I'm afraid I can't let you in until Marinette comes to vouch for you all."
An annoyed Alya rolled her eyes, "Why would we need Marinette? Lila here has been friends with you guys for years, she's even dating Damian Wayne."
The whole family's eyes landed on a boy with tanned skin around their age, he shook his head, "I've never known a Lila in my life."
A shock passed through the class, why did Lila tell them she knew the Wayne's then?
Soon an elegant figure graced the steps up to the Manor. Marinette.
Bruce smiled, "Ah, Marinette, I haven't seen you since Christmas, your uncle is inside."
She smiled at him, "Thank you for all the hospitality while we were in the city."
He grinned and Marinette frowned, she knew that smile and she did not like that he was about to use it in front of her classmates, "Anything for my honorary niece."
The class was shocked, again. Why did Marinette know the Wayne's and not say anything?
"I won't keep you, go inside and have some fun," Bruce smiled.
As she passed, Damian gave her a wink.
Once they entered the foyer the class exploded.
"Why didn't you tell us you knew the Wayne's?"
"How do you know them?"
Marinette shook them off, "I don't have to tell you anything. Now I'm off to find my uncle with Adrien."
She strode off with Adrien in tow.
He smiled at her, "Imagine how they'll react when they find out about Damian."
Marinette rolled her eyes and gave him a gentle push, "Oh, shush. You're just happy to see Tim, again."
He frowned, "Hey, the man's pretty."
"And 7 years older than you and spoken for." She said with her eyebrows raised.
Just then a tall man with blue eyes and black hair walked passed and Adrien sighed dreamily, "What about Jon? I know you guys were friends since you were like 13."
Marinette smiled, "Well, technically he's like 3 or 4 years older than us now and yes, he's single."
Adrien fist bumped Marinette and fixed his hair, "Send this cat luck, milady." He said before following the taller man.
…..
Marinette found her Uncle Jagged just before he was about to perform.
He smiled widely at her and gave her a huge hug, "Marinette, I'm so glad you could come. The outfits you made for me are rockin'."
Before she could even thank her uncle, Jagged got called onto the stage, "See ya later, Nette."
…..
Throughout the night Marinette danced and talked with old friends, despite having to shoo her classmates away at time.
At the end of the night Bruce had said a speech, "I wanted to thank you all for coming and donating. It's for the wonderful cause of helping homeless children around the city," the audience clapped, "I wanted to thank my friend Jagged Stone for playing tonight," everyone cheered, "And I wanted to thank Jagged's niece MDC for making my family's clothes for tonight."
Soon however, a slightly tipsy Dick grabbed the microphone and said, "She's also Damian's girlfriend."
The crowd laughed at the acrobats antics and soon everyone good back to dancing and chatting.
Marinette had danced with Cass, Tim, Jason and Dick but she hadn't gotten a chance to dance with Damian yet and the night was ending.
She looked everywhere and was about to give up when another voice spoke from the stage, it was Damian, "I wanted to say something before you all left for the night," people stopped shuffling so they could hear better, "As you heard earlier, my girlfriend is MDC and I just wanted to say a few things, M would you come up to the stage, please."
Marinette smiled and walked up the steps, a shocked cacophony of gasps filled the room, especially from her classmates.
"Marinette Dupain-Cheng, I have known you for 8 years, since we were ten, and we've been dating for 3 of those wonderful years. And I love you very much, more than I have ever loved anything."
Marinette's eyes started to tear up along with most of the crowds. One pair of eyes though was dry and glaring.
"I know we got off on the wrong foot, but I'm so glad we made up, because I don't know where I'd be without you today."
He got down on one knee and pulled out a ring, "Will you marry me?"
The crowd sucked in a breath and Marinette with her eyes puffy from tears, nodded, "Yes. Yes I will marry you."
He stood up and kissed her and the whole audience aww'd. Well the whole audience apart from Lila, who's angry yells were drowned out by the rest of the guests.
The newly engaged couple walked off the stage and into a quiet hallway to think, only to find both their best friends together and kissing.
Marinette put her fingers to her lips and snuck up on the two, "Are we to expect a double wedding?"
The two jumped apart blushing. Before Adrien noticed her wording.
"Wait. Wedding?! You better not hurt her Wayne or I'll hurt you."
Marinette playfully shoved her partner, "Don't be a silly kitty, I'd hurt him first."
Damian smiled lovingly at his fiancée, "I wouldn't be it any other way, Angel."

Levi POV
We just entered Erwin's cabin in the hospital. The horse ride was quiet and formal because we didn't want anyone to figure out that there was anything between us. I watched (Y/N) walk towards the end of the bed and stare at Erwin. I followed her and stood beside her but I was looking at her instead of Erwin. She looked emotionless but I could see the glint of sorrow in her eyes. I decided to put a hand on her shoulder to make her feel better.
Fortunately, she probably did as she looked at me and gave a weak smile. She was a strong woman but I understood why she felt weak at the moment. After all, Erwin was like her family. He was the only family she had left. After seeing Erwin unconscious for a while, we left the cabin and I took (Y/N) to a diner near the hospital. I knew that I had eaten more than half of the stew she cooked and that she didn’t have much for lunch because of that. I also remembered that she skipped breakfast due to waking up late.
The sun was going down and the street lamps were being lit as we sat at the diner and ordered some bread with bacon strips and mashed potatoes. Bacon was relatively cheaper than beef and thus, local diners offered it. (Y/N) was eating like a monster and I chuckled, "At this rate, I will confuse you with Sasha". She gave me a glare and went back into eating. After all, she didn’t eat much the whole day.
When we were done eating, (Y/N) went back to the market to buy clothes with Hanji, who met us at the diner later. I wanted to go with them so that they won't exceed the budget I gave them but I had a meeting to join in Erwin's place to debrief about what happened when Eren was kidnapped and what our next step would be. Erwin usually takes these type of decisions but now its up to myself and Hanji as we are the most capable people after Erwin.
(Y/N) POV
I looked up at the big golden haired man. He looked different from Jacob or the other men that touched me. He almost looked like my dad, only my dad had red hair and green eyes and this man was a blonde with blue eyes. He kneeled on one knee to meet my height and said "Hello, I'm Erwin Smith. Remember me from the court? I will teach you how to beat up all the bad people who may try to hurt you and not get into trouble like last time. This way, the bad people will be scared of you and no one can say that (Y/N) is a bad girl. Is that okay?", with a smile.
His eyes looked kind and trustable. He didn't seem like he was lying to me. I remembered him from the court house. He was the only one who stood up against everyone with my mom and dad to save me from going back to that horrible place. Jacob was wrong about one thing, my parents didn't abandon me. Instead, they said that Jacob was a bad man. I couldn't agree any less. I knew how much I messed up but my parents said that what has happened, has happened. They asked me to let go of the past but deep down, I knew that they were scared of me.
They would get scared if I sneaked in their room at night if I had nightmares. They always got their fear in control once they saw I didn't have anything in my hands. I stopped going to them if I had nightmares ever since. I knew they couldn't always protect me and that I couldn't mess up again. I scanned the blonde's face again to make sure if his intensions were good. When I felt like he didn't have the type of face bad people have, I agreed to train.
Months later
"Come on (Y/N)! Throw the best punch you've got at the dummy" Uncle Erwin shouted. We got close enough for me to start calling him Uncle Erwin. He was one of the very few men I knew who I was comfortable with. He was a really good man and always wanted the best for me. He could be strict during training but he would let me read books from his collection if I did good. I threw my hardest punch but the dummy just vibrated a bit. "I see, you're too light weight to give strong punches. Your height is small too and you have the perfect weight for your age and height. We need to work on your aerobics so that you can use your whole body to make hits stronger. You need to grasp tactical fighting over brute force." he said to me. He assigned a lady from the survey corps to teach me aerobics the next day.
A few years later
This was the last day of training with Uncle Erwin. I was supposed to fight him today. I fought him before but never managed to win because he was an expert in tactical fight, had the height and was stronger than I am. My only benefit here was the aerobics. Ms Mary, the woman who was assigned to teach me aerobics, did a really good job. However, I learned more by myself as I started going to the local library to learn more about aerobics from text books as this was my only lethal weapon against Uncle Erwin. We were starting with hand to hand combat.
I charged at him. I saw him position his hands to use my speed to topple me off. As he caught me, I changed direction of my leg and managed to kick the back of his head. As he was disorientated because of the kick, I took advantage of the situation to hold his hands, jumped and use the wall to change the direction of my leg and kicked his back which made him fall down. I used one of my knees to give pressure on his back and held his hands in place with one leg and two hands. "I surrender" I heard him say as I moved away.
"The first kick was a good delivery. You understood my tactics before I did anything. I’m proud of you (Y/N)." Erwin smiled before grabbing a sword and throwing it to me. It was time for a sword fight. Erwin was the best soldier at fighting with his sword in the whole military. Even humanity's strongest soldier, Levi Ackerman, lost against him multiple times before being trained by him to use swords. Even after being trained, he apparently suffered from occasional defeat from Uncle Erwin. At least that's what he told me. I positioned myself and charged at him again.
These memories came to me when I saw Uncle Erwin unconscious on the bed. I lost that fight in less than five minutes. He said he was proud of me because I held on for that long. I was good with swords but he just was the best. Watching him so defenceless made my stomach turn.
I was sitting inside the hotel room. I had changed into my nightgown which was a white cotton chemise with full sleeves. Hanji bought a lot of things for me and the budget heichou gave me exceeded but Hanji said she will pay for it because apparently I'm a good friend. She was acting like her usual insane self but I didn't find it much irritating because I heard before that's how women do shopping. I figured I should start trying new things in life. After all, dating like a normal person (as normal things can get for me) turned out to be a good idea. "I have to admit that Hanji has a good taste in clothes" I thought as I laid down on the bed and passed out in a matter of a few minutes.
Levi POV
I came back at the hotel after that useless meeting to find (Y/N) sleeping. I brought dinner for the both of us but I didn't want to wake her. I had dinner and kept hers on the dining table so that she could eat it if she wakes up later at night. After getting the coat off, I went to the sofa. I never bothered to change into anything special like night robes because I always felt like it was a waste of time and money. The sofa was small and uncomfortable but it had to do. I didn't sleep much anyway. After what seemed like an eternity, my eyes were closing when I fell off the sofa with a thud. "Stupid sofa..." I grunted and went back up on it.
A moment later, I felt a tug on my sleeves. I opened my eyes to see (Y/N) standing in front of the sofa. "Take the bed" she said. She looked uncomfortable. "It's fine. I can sleep here." I answered. "No. Take the bed. Please" she said to me with a more demanding voice. "Okay then, suit yourself" I said before going to the bed. If she wants to sleep on the sofa, I can't stop her. I heard plates clattering in the living room. She must be having her dinner. As I started feeling drowsy again, I felt a weight come down on the bed. I shot my eyes open to see (Y/N) lying down on the bed beside me. She looked uncomfortable and was shaking.
"Are you okay? Should I go back to the couch?" I asked in panic. I understood why she was uncomfortable but I didn't understand why she was doing it. To answer my question, she whispered, "Stay. I need to fight my past. I need to be as strong as you are. That's what Uncle Erwin taught me to be." She was away from me for a while, adjusting to the fact that she was in bed with me but eventually, she came closer and was hugging me. She was still shaking and I pulled her closer. I patted her head because I didn't know what to say to her. She looked at me suddenly as if to scan my face. She stared at my eyes for a long time until she decided to bury her head in my chest. "She must've found what she was looking for" I assumed. I had a fairly good amount of sleep that night.
(Y/N) POV
Before passing out in heichou's arms, I looked at his face to judge his reaction to this. I didn't want to get intimate and I had to make sure he wouldn't take it in the wrong way. I wasn't ready for anything intimate yet. I didn't see the look that was in my father or Uncle Erwin's eye but I didn't see the look that was in Jacob and those other men's eyes either. Heichou's eyes showed some very different emotions. It showed how much he cared but it wasn't the fatherly care that my father or Uncle Erwin had. This was something different but I trusted it. I didn't see any signs that he might try anything except for holding me and trying to comfort me. My body stopped shaking as I knew that this man wouldn't hurt me. I buried my head in his chest. The sound of his heart beating strongly put me to sleep.
I woke up early the next morning to find heichou snoring softly beside me. His face looked peaceful and really attractive. I blushed at the thought that this man had feelings for me. "So many women would want to be in my place..." I sighed. I went out of bed to brew some tea. A housekeeper came upstairs in a short while to clean the room and I woke heichou up as she entered the room. I brew the tea while watching heichou make the housekeeper suffer by pointing out every speck she missed. I smirked at the scene before me. It was amusing beyond measures.
"The tea is ready" I called out heichou and he left the miserable housekeeper alone. We were both sipping at our tea when the housekeeper was done and heichou ordered for pancakes as breakfast before she left. Heichou and I didn't talk about what happened last night because he probably felt awkward about it and I didn't know how to start talking about it. "So, about last night, are you feeling okay?" heichou asked confidently. If it wasn't myself, no one could've noticed the fact that he had to think long and hard to come up with this sentence. I noticed him trying to work something out while sipping his tea for a while.
"I'm fine. I think I'm not scared anymore. At least not of you because I figured out that you won't try to hurt me in that way" I answered. "That's good. Well, its the first time I slept in a bed. I usually sleep on the chair at my office." heichou answered. "Well, I've seen your chair in the old survey corps headquarters. It looks quiet comfy... But why didn't you ever sleep on a bed?" I asked the captain. "I don't sleep a lot. I just tend to do my paperworks at night and fall asleep while doing the work." he shrugged.
The pancakes came after a while and while eating I asked him, "What type of women do you prefer?". I was curious about it because clearly, heichou was drawn to my skills and personality than looks. " Well, she has to meet my cleaning standards" he answered. "Well, do I meet your cleaning standards?" I asked with a smirk. "Well, as far as I've noticed, you are the best among the other recruits in case of cleaning duties." he answered with a smirk. "What about looks? Do you have any specifications?" I asked with curiosity overflowing me.
"Well, I suppose I used to find tall women attractive? Now I think short women can be cute too." he said nervously. I tried to keep a calm face but I think my disappointment with the answer could still be shown in my face. "I prefer women who could keep up with me. If I am to be serious about a relationship, I'd not care about looks but about if that person understands me. I won't say looks aren't important but I think anyone can be beautiful. It all just depends on the personality" he corrected himself as he recognised the disappointment on my face. I answered with a simple "hmm".
"Do you want to go see Erwin?" he asked me as we were done with our breakfast. "Well, he's only going to be lying down like a weakling right?" I muttered with a sigh. He wasn't supposed to be like that. "Well, you're right. Why don't we go riding? I won't say no to some clean air" he asked. Was he taking me to a date? "Is this a date?" I asked heichou. "Well, I suppose it is" he answered with a slight almost unnoticeable blush creeping at his face. This man was trying so hard to keep a straight face that it was funny. "Well, sure. We can do that." I told him with a smile. I was smiling often recently because, I suppose, having a companion is nice. It lightens the mood. "I'll get some horses after taking a bath." he answered before getting into the bathroom.
A while later
We were on horse backs going for the interior of wall Rose. Trost district was far too crowded for a good horse ride. I wore a dress that Hanji bought for me. It was a simple one with a bodice, two petticoats, a jacket over the bodice, simple stockings and a riding boot. It's what most working women in the city wore. We bought some sandwiches from Trost and packed it up in a bag on our way.
Heichou was planning to have a picnic without ever mentioning the word "picnic" but I decided to happily oblige. As we got in the interior, and beyond the small town just outside the wall, there were huge grassy field. I looked at heichou and smirked at him for a moment till he saw my expression and then I kicked my horse to run fast. He was taken aback by my sudden action but he kicked his horse and caught up to me. I could see the satisfied smirk on his face and that brought a genuine smile on my face. Instinctively, I let my hands stretch by letting go of the horse and surprisingly, I felt like I was flying. [Author's note: It's like the ride Harry Potter had on Buckbeak. Just on a horse instead. Look it up if you don't know]
"Try this! It feels like flying!" I shouted to Levi heichou. He looked a me confused and followed exactly what I did. I saw his expression change to shock and then I saw a smile forming on his face. His eyes looked lively till he closed them to enjoy the feeling even more. The moment didn't last long for both of us as we almost fell off our horses when the horse started climbing up a mound. Heichou stopped his horse and I stopped mine.
He took out a handkerchief from the pocket of his pants, laid it on the ground and sat on it. I sat on the grass without anything. Heichou was wearing a white shirt and black pants. He looked beautiful. The sun was right above our heads and the warmth was perfect with the cold wind blowing in the meadow. After having our sandwiches in silence while enjoying the view and each other’s presence, we left for Trost again while the sun was going down. As we reached the streets of Trost, I said, "I had fun today". Heichou smirked at me and replied, " Me too"
Two weeks later:
We went on horse rides almost everyday after that except for the times when heichou had meetings. I've been helping him with paperworks every night so that he could get some sleep. Heichou had a meeting today and I went to visit Uncle Erwin at morning with some of Levi heichou's paperworks so that I could finish them off at the hospital. I sat on the sofa beside his bed the whole day finishing off paperworks until the heichou arrived at evening. He noticed my sad expression immediately.
I couldn't deny that I was devastated by Uncle Erwin's condition. I had so much to talk to him about... I had to let him know that I’m second in command now. He would've been proud of me. Heichou looked at me and said, "After he gets up, he is going to pay for making me handle his paperworks and meetings and for making you worry". I chuckled at his response as a smile threatened to come on his face.
As we were leaving the hospital, I whined to heichou, "I think I need a drink. Watching Uncle Erwin like this ruined my mood. And by drink, I meant alcohol". "I thought you hated alcohol?" heichou asked raising his eyebrow. "Well, we got closer the last time I drank. I suppose it isn't such a bad thing" I answered with a matter of fact tone. "The last time, you puked all over the floor too" heichou added. "Relax. I know my limits now." I smiled at him. "Okay, we can go to the bar at the hotel. However, you're not drinking any more than a few sips of whatever I'm ordering for us." heichou told me in a commanding tone. I nodded in answer as we went for the hotel. "We need to take a bath first. We both look like shit" he muttered as we reached the hotel.
After we were done bathing, I had put on a black dress that Hanji and I bought the other day. Heichou wore a white shirt and black pant. When I was done dressing, he took me to the bar attached with the hotel. He mentioned that this hotel keeps things discrete and therefore taking me to this bar won't raise questions among civilians about the relationship between heichou and myself. He made his way to the VIP lounge with me. I could see women dressed vulgarly walking around the bar. I felt uncomfortable seeing that as I got a fair idea about where the overnight guests that heichou mentioned came from.
We sat at a table where a waiter came to take our orders. The captain dealt with it as he mentioned some strange names of drinks that I never heard of. After he was done, he looked at me and said, "I ordered something that isn't very strong. I still want you to only take a few sips." I nodded as an answer. We were talking about the people in the bar, about how great our the horse rides were and about our memories with Uncle Erwin as the drink came along with a beef platter for dinner.
He made me eat dinner first before taking about three sips of the drink. That was enough to get me tipsy. He drank the rest of it and somehow, still remained sober enough. Before going back to the hotel, heichou excused himself to go to use the washroom. I waited for a while before realising that I had to use the washroom too. After asking a waiter, I went towards the female washroom, which was just beside the male washroom and I saw something that I wish I never saw.
Levi POV
The bathroom wasn't clean enough. I still used it somehow and was trying to get out as fast as possible. Just as I got out of the male bathroom, I saw a tall woman get out of the female bathroom. "Darn it. That's Emilia" I cursed as I tried to go past her without her noticing. I slept with her a few times before. She was a paid prostitute in this bar. Unfortunately, she noticed me and called me out. This woman tried to get me into something serious with her for a long time. Probably because of my popularity. I, however was never interested in her in that way.
Before I could react, She pulled me into a hug and said, "You're the one who ordered my service tonight right captain Levi? I bet you missed me.". I could've punched her away from me but that would be considered as an inappropriate behaviour towards women so I tried to gently pull away from her. I had to get out of this situation, however, turns out, I was already late because (Y/N) was standing behind me the whole time.
She had tears in her eyes but her expression had more anger than sadness. She looked like she wanted to rip Emilia in half. "(Y/N), I can explain.." I started but she didn't let me finish and said "I know what happened here. You don't have to explain. I saw the way you pushed her away.". She then slowly walked towards Emilia as if she would pounce at her any moment. " Didn’t you get the message when he was pulling away?" she growled at her with a low menacing voice. I looked at her with shock as she was managing to be almost as intimidating as I am.
Emilia was a stupid woman so she didn't understand the situation she was in and she said, "Men do that a lot. You just gotta keep doing what you do to for them to give in". "Well, I don't know your ways but, Levi heichou here is off limits. Stay away from him." (Y/N) told her. "Off limits? By who? You?" Emilia sneered. That woman had a death wish. "Yes. By me." (Y/N) answered with gritted teeth and it took Emilia by shock. She then smiled and said, "Why would Captain Levi like you? You aren't even his type. He likes tall women like me and you're just the opposite. You don't even have any big breasts. You are almost like a little man yourself" she chuckled.
(Y/N)'s eyes widened in shock. "Enough, Emilia. You had no right to say that to her. And yes, I am in a relationship with her so stop harassing us. I did not ask for your service. You are clearly mistaking me with someone else." I said calmly trying to break the tension because if I didn’t, (Y/N) would knock her dead. I took (Y/N)'s hand to take her out of there but she wouldn't budge. I saw a sadistic smile form on her face. I was really hoping she wouldn't start a bar fight because the last thing we need is attention on ourselves.
"So, you're his type huh? I suppose I can't change that.. Oh wait, maybe I can" she muttered as she looked up at her and suddenly punched her hard. I saw a few teeth flying out of her mouth as she fell to the floor unconscious. She was still shaking with anger when I pulled her out of the bar and to our suite. "I have to appreciate what you did but this is going to get us in a lot of trouble." I told her as we went inside the room. She was still shaking but this time, it didn't feel like anger.
"I want to have sex" she muttered. I knew she was saying these in the heat of the moment so I said, "You don't want that. You're tipsy, angry and scared. You're not going to make good decisions right now". She looked straight at my eyes and said, "I'm not tipsy anymore. I am your second in command for a reason. I can take good decisions even in moments like this". "Then why are you shaking?" I asked her pointing the obvious out. "Because I am not ready. I will never be ready. I will never be your type. I need to know if you'll take responsibility for your actions or run back to some tall whore. I need this" she yelled at me. I analysed what she just said. She wanted this because she didn't trust me. "I can't do this (Y/N). You'll regret it" I told her calmly. However, to my astonishment, she started taking her clothes off.

You know that as a Queen, you put on an act. You can't always show what's in your heart. The same is true for being a wife.
We're women. We're not allowed to have things of our own.
Do you worry that I can't bear you a child?
Does it bring us closer for you to know that your failure disappoints me beyond words?
In the name of justice and tolerance you will drive your people to civil war.
My ladies brought this to me months ago. I read it in an hour.
Have you ever been in love?
Don't you turn your back on me. I am more than your friend. I am your Queen!
I can't be ruled by desire. It's nothing to build a life on.
Your figure's gonna go to hell anyway so you might as well eat up. You are feeding the future King.
It's been some weeks now but I wanted to be sure and I am sure. I am with child, our child, at last!
You lie to your guests and then you threaten them with weapons? We will not be treated this way!
Asking you to know your place is like asking the sun not to shine.
It's must be hard. Once a Queen, now the Queen Mother. Decorative, like an expensive vase.
There's a new day coming, and you are on the wrong side.
Are all powerful men so insecure?
Innocent men shouldn't die alone.
You think you're untouchable, that your sins will stay buried, but they don't.
Of all the people you could have slept with, did it have to be one of my ladies? One of my closest friends?
I am your Queen. I command you.
One bedroom for husband and wife. Good luck with that!
Am I really planning a life, a future, without you?
I will not live in fear of her.
Are you trying to blame a woman for a man’s choices?
It was your spies who got that information to me wasn’t it.
I hope your wings are strong you vulture! You will be circling for quite some times.
What’s the cost of a king’s life?
I always knew we would be wed. Even when I first returned.
I see such beauty. Such beauty you have brought me.
You must wed again. You must love again.
I will never love anyone, the way I love you.
I can’t let him go.
Let him go, and hold on to me.
We were suppose to dance under the stars.
I may still a Queen.
Is that it? Our courtship is over. Was I wrong in thinking it was going well?
No matter what you might think, I can’t just force men to fall in love with me.
That is not a strategy.
I am a queen, about to marry a broken Prince for power...
I need proof before the wedding happens.
You two have become thick as thieves.
Do you still hold it agents me that I defended her agents a false accusation of murder?!
It's time to accept my fate
I will not be chased out of my country before I’ve even retuned.
I will fight fire, with fire.
The day may come where we may find ourselves on the battle field. What would you do then?
Impressive. Where did you learn to shoot like that?
Those memories are a part of me.
You love power!
You despise me, yet you expect a free ride!
I think I shall never see you again.
We have to stop them.
Give me your sword.
You took my heart! And now I’ve come to repay you.
I have come for my throne.
Queens do not bow to their subjects. It is in-fact, quite the other way around.
And may God, and your Queen. Have mercy of your soul.
Men don’t like taking orders from woman, they can barely stand speaking to them.
He knows I speak the truth.
Who cares about right or wrong, if you're dead!
I don’t have much to live for these days, but I would still die for my children.
She does have her moments doesn't she.
I’m sorry I wasn’t the mother you wanted me to be. I did my best.
Why would my presence startle you? Oh because you married my lover.
You requested a five course meals, I offer you seven!
Your love, it gave him so much joy, and that's what you must remember.
How can I pray to God, when I am certain he doesn’t not hear me.
My election could mean the end of your nation.
If I cannot disprove these charges I will swing from a rope.
What if he dies?!
We were here! We were playing a game of chess- which I won.
From the moment you were born, our relationship has been complicated.
We live in a word that undervalues woman.
I may be guilty of favouring my sons over my daughters.
And when you are wed, and you leave this home, it will break my heart.
You are offering me a kindness, a consideration I have rarely shown to you over the years.
Is it so unthinkable, a crime might take place in this castle that I had nothing to do with.
The butcher still insists on his innocents.
Just remember. Enjoy him, but never trust him.
I won’t be frightened into your arms by a dead rat, or a dead Cardinal!
If you think you are not going to talk, you are mistaken.
I don’t understand why we have to take time to visit the Generals.
A king should always deliver good news in person. Bad news should be sent by a messenger. Or let them find out on their own.
Go take back your country.
Our union is damaged beyond repair.
That’s the most flattering thing you’ve ever said to me.
Please tell me that wasn't you.
I need you here, too see you, even if I can’t touch you.
I am paying the price. I feel like a prisoner.
I am their Queen. Their whispers are treason.
Your highness, you are a vision.
This thing between us. It must end.
I’m ready to accept his proposal.
If is a fact of our time. A man rules his wife. Even if his wife is a Queen.
And it will be the challenge of my life, not to kill her.
Perhaps I forgot what it means to be a queen.
I shall never name an heir unless it is my own child.
To name a successor is to place a target on one's self.
Perhaps it better to outright refuse him. Be brutal and direct.
Don’t misjudge me. I am my father’s son.
All that’s left now, is for me to enjoy my final hours.
Well, I suppose you’ll have to settle with being the Queen of two nations, not three.
You cannot keep me in a cage. Even one built with love.
We were meant to be happy, and we were. But I have another fate.
Show people you are worthy of the post you hold, and no one will remember how you rose to it.
Love is never simple. Not that I'm any expert.
I was willing to give up so much for you. But now I want you out of my life. Forever.
Why must the fate of nations be decided in a shared bed?
I receive a letter from him nearly everyday. And I haven’t read one.
I can’t image what the night must be without the man you truly love.
Please go. While I still have the courage to say goodbye.
Sons of cobblers, doesn’t get to be with princesses.
I need to believe, that who we are, matters more than our station.
You are who you're born into, and nothing more than people say you are. You can pretend otherwise, but the world won’t pretend with you.
If you go on this mission. I’ll stop loving you!
From now on, you're only allowed to dream about me.
I have many children of my own you know. Some of them turn out quite well.
She is actually dead in’t she?
What is power, without love.
Be grateful for the fun you had, you must have know your time would come.
I expect you’ll be wearing that when we play cards tonight.
She handles tragedy with ruthless clarity.
I will not help you with this
Ask anyone. I’m as fickle as they come.
It's hard for all of us. Being part of this family.
I may be young, and inexperienced, but I promise I’ll give you an heir.
What’s this play about?
It’s a comedy about royals.
I hear the princess is worth looking at.
It's funny isn't in. Both of us here, we already know we've had our one true love.
You must rule your own heart, as firmly as you rule your subjects.
We may be the enemy, but I am not without my manners.
Your light as a feather, I swear!
Would you be interested in anything else? My chambers for example…
There’s the smile I was hoping for.
Allow me to charm you so more, and we’ll work on that next part.
Men forget, that woman have ears.
My child will be heir to her throne, to both Nations.
This is a course you cannot step back from. And if you take it, I fear I am looking at a dead woman.
We all die. The question is what we stood for while we lived.
Have you already named our children? Or did you leave that part for me?
I did not expect to like you. But I do.
Earn my respect then, as I earn the respect of my men. In combat!
Duels only lead to dead men, not respect.
Fists then. A boxing match. If you win, I bend the knee. But if I win, you will withdraw your marriage offer to the Queen.
I let you win that race.
How dare you, didn't you notice that I defied the queen of England for you!?
I’m going to be your husband.
I had a husband! and I loved him and he was murdered in cold blood before my eyes.
Before I met you, I loved someone. In that way that should've lasted a lifetime, but it didn't.
Let the danger come.
You will be my husband in name only. And we will never be happy.
It is my duty, my God-given birthright and my crown. And I will defend it from anyone who attempts to take it.
I had hoped that our marriage would be a partnership in every way. but with your drinking, your cheating, your blind ambition...
I know we hardly know each other, and yet here I am, asking you to risk everything for me.
With or without your crown. I would do anything for you.
I made you King. But we will never be equals.
You can’t expect everyone to be glad you are back at Court, some of us know you.
He will hang. And I will enjoy watching him die.
I didn't kill him, but justice needed to be done.
This vile act will not ease your pain!
Revenge is not meant to ease pain. It is meant to balance the scales.
He was an innocent man!
Men will never willingly bow to the weaker sex.
I put my trust in you, my Lord.
Well surely you don’t blame me.
How nice of you to take time out of your grievance to mock me.
What about the shame you've brought to this family? Not to mention this country and to God himself?!
I've learned never trust the beginning of a book.
I know this isn't what you wanted, but for now, this marriage will protect you.
When the time is right, I can make you a widow.
We need to show them you are not a monster, by showing them what you really are. A King.
Perhaps I shall have your throat slit in your sleep. Or have the villagers do it for me when they come for us to root out the beast we have protected.
I should have your entire family burned at the stake.
He was born first! That's all he has to do.
I have always put my children first. I have done terrible things! I have always done it for their good. But are they worth it?
Tell your son to come to court. Or I will have him dragged here. On his knees.
I will not be remembered as the Queen that drew first blood.
And I can't bear to lose you.
Our affair puts you in danger.
I won't ever tire of you.
He is a long-term confidante. A skilled advisor and diplomat, whose journeys, for the Crown, have met with spectacular success.
I represent something glorious, for everyone. And if you want to banish every person who is dazzled by me, we'll be a nation of mainly women.
You are more precious to me than my nation.
Speak! While there is still mercy in my heart!
I will bow to no man
I will face ever threat to my reign with sword in hand. And any who shall stand in my way shall fall.
I cannot have her blood on my hands. And I cannot let her go.
Look how far you’ve come. Trading your heart to rise in station.
Now that I know how things really work around here. I'm interested in getting to know you better.
Why should I be interested in you?
I was starting to think you didn't have it in you.
But let me offer some advice: next time you threaten someone, make sure you have proof. A theory is nothing more than a feather.
I am on no one's side, but my own.
Get out of my Court!
It’s fine. A daughter joining her mother for an evening stroll is hardly a crime.
The tears might be a bit much.
In a year, everything will be different. I'll have an heir.
I won’t fall in love with him. I promise!! Please have faith in me.
I was almost sent to a nunnery for following my heart!
I lost both the man I love and the man I could have loved.
I'm asking you to marry me. but I’m begging you to save your own life.
Tell me this. Do you think we can be happy together?
Your food is regularity tested for poison.
You're so clever.
Your lies come so easily.
You invited me here because you think of me, as often as I think of you.
He does have his father’s history to overcome.
I am an ambitious man. And if this is my one chance at King, I will take it.
If I am King for only as long as you live, then I say long live the Queen.
I don’t want to find love. I want to be loved.
It wasn’t easy, I paid a fortune.
The inevitable War of Two Queen.
May matrimony set you on a more honorable path.
I am married to the most powerful man in the world.
Stop starting at me witch!
You're a beautiful, ambitious, young woman who's learned to pull the strings of men, and yed can't see when her own strings are being pulled.
Being married to a woman who is in love with another, isn’t exactly the ideal union I dreamed of either.
Bastards and cheaters are not welcome on the Throne.
You will have love or an heir, but not both.
Lie to me again, and I will open you up right here, in your own house.
If you have a baby that isn’t yours, you’ll hang, unless you cooperate.
