PROMPTS FOR PRE ESTABLISHED CONNECTIONS AND CREATING HISTORY BETWEEN CHARACTERS * assorted dialogue for giving your characters a history and giving them past things or events to talk about, adjust as necessary
do you remember what i told you last time?
have you been doing well since i saw you?
that's not what you told me back then.
when was the last time i saw you?
you were shorter then.
i'm picking the restaurant this time.
we've known each other since we were children.
always knew i could count on you.
that time was different. this is worse.
you're not going to let me live that down, are you?
i seem to remember a conversation we had back then.
so you changed your mind about it?
do you remember our encounter in paris?
you should know me by now.
am i the only one that knows the truth?
we had a lot of help back then.
your mom told me to look out for you.
you just love bringing that back up to annoy me.
maybe don't mention my past indescretions?
this was never going to work out between us.
i told you not to get attached.
i know more about you than you think.
i was there, remember?
i'm not about to forget all the shit you put me through.
you told me you were going to try and make this work.
remember what i said to you?
the last time i saw you, things were good between us.
you never mentioned this before.
that was the longest flight of my life, and you made it worse.
can i still trust you after all that?
at least we tried to make something work.
we never discussed what happened between us.
okay, but i'm driving the car this time.
i haven't forgotten what you said last week.
i'm still thinking about your comment.
i didn't realize it was you when i first saw you.
you seem to make a lot of enemies around here.
there's not much for us to talk about.
we worked it out last time.
i know you far better than you know yourself.
we have a long history.
is that the shirt you were wearing last time?
what don't i know about you?
i haven't told them about us.
you were the only person i could go to.
you know me.
this is bigger than both of us.
i can't stand your driving.
are you taking me to the place we had dinner last time?
that's not at all what you said.
didn't we agree on that?
i thought i made it very clear where i stand.
are these the same people that came after you last time?
are you still going on about it?
can we talk about it?
staying silent about it won't help.
you're the only person who knows the real me.
this is a bad time to talk about your problems.

ooc: friendly father's day reminder that the show portrayed philippe so incorrectly with his kids that s3 made me so angry and i have still yet to watch it... why you may ask because they show him as disgusted and uncaring and not knowing their fucking names when in fact he loved his kids so much, his first daughter was his pride and joy, he took on one of Louis' bastard children as his own like... man has dad written into his blood.

ooc: philippe at this years met gala, came in a dark navy and purple tux that were intricate flower designs, with riding boots, with a red cape covered in red crystals. he was also wearing a red crystal covered hat with a purple feather matching the purple in his suit. His cape hat and boots came off revealing little detailed crystalized animals, particularly 2 birds on the edges of the cape, an owl wearing the hat, and two bunnies in the boots. They seemed to be held up on some kind of invisible/wire frame, and followed Philippe around, who was left with his suit, and a pair of bright red shoes that matched the cape and hat.
He decided to go with both themes, sleeping beauties as he was dressed as prince philippe, and garden of time which is about having to pluck crystal flowers from a garden of of crystal flowers for aristocratic reasons etc. So hence the crystals and the choice of outfit is inspired by when philip meets aurora in the woods as briar rose. and besides how literal it is, it is also very delicate and probably will never be worn again because of how it was made, thus fitting in with the theme of the exhibit.
in short philippe matched the dress code and exhibit theme in a clever way by being literal about the exhibit theme. it worked out completely in his favor. if he trusted how horses were kept in new york he would have ridden one in, but he doesn't cause he knows how cruel it is for a horse in the city like that. the car he arrives in though is white (like phillip's horse in the disney movie). also the disney movie of sleeping beauty is all about the stopping of time.
Also three guests are with him, his PA, his stylist/design partner for the outfit, and life long friend Henriette who decided as a trio to match him but go as inspiration of the three fairies flora, fauna and maryweather. They stick to the disney color scheme, but Henriette is in a ballet inspired version of the pink fairy that is crystalized with pink roses. his PA is in a simpler green gown again with crystals on it showing off gorgeous leaves and vines, and his stylist design partner is in a navy number that mixes the two but adds some fairy wings that are covered in crystals. each carry a little wand with a small cuckoo clock on it.

𝑮𝒆𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘 𝒎𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓!
alias / name : Bas
zodiac sign : Leo
height : 5'9
hobbies : Writing, singing, dancing, running, working on my teaching certification
favorite color : Lime green
current book: I have so many books I love alot of them but I think right now I would say the Stranger Things Comics and Death of a Salesman
last song : I wish from Into the Woods
last film/show : Task Master and the Wiggles Documentary "Hot Potato"
inspiration : I have always loved French history. I learned about Philippe first from Man in the Iron Mask and and the boys (Louis XIV and Philippe's) father from Three Musketeers. French revolutaion is great, but so much is written about it that it gets boring. And Marie Antoinette getting all credit for Versailles nagers me. But what drew me to Philippe was how little he is mentioned in history books to the point of his name being spelled wrong and have no title for him. All this despite being titled the grandfather of Europe, and his heirs becoming kings and queens including a later king of France.
story behind url : He is called Monsieur, it is his title, like officially as the brother of the king. He was titled Petit Monseiur when his uncle was still alive because even though Louis XIII had died the title for Monsieur wouldn't pass to Philippe until the uncle died.

ooc: it is crazy to me how much media today focuses on the spare for the heir and the spare type stuff. but when people put together gif sets and such versailles is left off. Like it baffles me. Philippe has everything that people want he's gay, he historically wore women's clothing for all types of purposes which was encouraged by his mom to make him seem week. He was taken out of school to not compete with the heir. he was left behind during many episodes of the fronde because he was the spare. like in modern media and books when looking at "spares" philippe should be discussed right alongside other modern royalty shows. but he's not and that is so sad.
#ooc: out of fucks to give#all sorts of purposes entails that he was forced into it well beyond the proper age by family#and he chose to do it later in life because he liked it

"What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction."
... a study in staying true to yourself even when all you are is stripped from you, love that is so endless that fighting for it is as natural as breathing, how putting the life and happiness of others above your own is baffling to those very people, how disabilities manifest physically and mentally, how the smallest things make you you and sometimes it takes another to point them out, and how peeta mellark burned right alongside the girl on fire ...
