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.

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.

"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 ...

Philippe for all that he was did not like to be acquainted with the ground. He never had. And she was right to read him in such a way that he would prefer a chair even at the great inconvenience of whoever would come this way, as well as who had to bring it out. "I think a chair is a brilliant idea, your majesty," he said his voice sounding still a bit dazed as he tried to gain his barrings again. It was rather unbecoming, and Philippe in other company would be embarrassed but Charlotte had become a friend, and Philippe amongst friends was not the Philippe the open court knew. It wasn't that he was a different person, but he was more relaxed no matter what clothing he was wearing, or how much of himself he decided to embrace that day.

He finally felt alright to stand as a chair was brought out. And his clothing was saved mostly. As he sat he looked at her, with a bit of a mirthful look because he had already swooned once, he wouldn't again, surely. "Be honest, is the coat truly ruined?"

Charlotte had been very concerned when she saw her companion meet the earth after a moment of odd looking silence. She knew what it was too be in your feet in such uncomfortable shoes for some time though the worry of him dropping like a fly had not courted her mind as it should. She’d pushed off brimsley and the guards after they had ensured that he was breathing. Her voice filled with the honey care of a mother though the command of a queen. He was important to diplomacy of her country and had slowly become someone she could be fond of as well. This was on her shoulders after all. At first, she had worried that he had been attacked though there was no blood or dip in breathing. Merely beautiful eyes rolled and features lost to the dream world instead. She knew the type he was. Self deprecating an honor of its own though a bit of humor came into her fretful gaze. Gently placing the hankerchief she had been dabbing his head with in the silky expanse of his gloves. “It is certainly jarring,” she agreed. “I do believe you should take a moment. I can have a chair brought for you if you don’t want that fancy waist coat any more grass stained. It is decidedly more beautiful than the lot I’ve seen to do. Though I don’t want to make you swoon.”
