Get on your knees and dig up the garden
𓏲ּ ֶָ 𝑤𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑜𝑠𝒕𝒗 ⁝ Anna Popplewell, 26, cis woman, she/her. announcing the arrival of MYRANDA of house KARSTARK, the LADY of KARHOLD. whispers among the court name them to be both AMBITIOUS and STUBBORN in disposition, and those closest to them speak to their interests in writing poetry. if we bards could compose a song for them, it might tell stories of a clenched fist beneath a table, a bitten tongue, a silver ring spinning around a finger, a braid tight enough to give a headache, bruised knees from kneeling in dirt, prayers unanswered. the seven whisper to their most devout queen as she sleeps, making her question where their loyalties truly lie. are they right to whisper? for their loyalties truly lie with THE KARSTARKS/THE NORTH.
tldr;
a curious child, always first into the unknown, whether it was into the darkest corners of the library or into the woods, far from prying eyes. there were always whispers, though. a sad child, and angry girl. always listening, always thinking, always scheming, whether it was for something as meaningless as sneaking a second dessert from the kitchen, to lying about when she'd return from a ride. a bane of the house, lurking in a shadow, rushing about a corner. she rarely played, preferring to watch from the sides, as though she was learning how to be from the other children. where was she from? karhold, of course. any attempt to suggest otherwise was met with a blank stare. her parents? Lord and Lady Karstark. She would die for them. Certainly, she would allow the realm to go to ruin for them. whether or not she loves in the same way as others do, she loves fully, and without question.
basics:
name: myranda karstark (nn myra) age: 26 allegiance: herself and her house above all else, failing that the north gender + pronouns: cis female, she/her sexuality: pansexual
faceclaim: anna popplewell height: 5 foot 3 eyes: blue hair: deep brown curls that fall to her mid back, often held back in braids to keep away from her face
positives: loyal (to a very, very select few, but a friend to all is a friend to none), ambitious, adaptable, creative
negatives: stubborn, anxious, overthinks, too introspective, short tempered, private, decidedly grey morality (do not ask her about the trolley problem) ((especially do not ask her the variation where the one person is a person she loves)) holds grudges
tropes: middle child syndrome, changeling tale, emotionally tongue-tied
songs: i look in people's windows by taylor swift, the garden by the crane wives, the ghost on the shore by lord huron
headcanons (tw: weapons, abandonment issues)
not a swordsman by any stretch of the imagination, but does know very basic self defence and keeps a dagger on her person at all times, though she mostly uses it as a tool
has an aversion to rosemary, and cannot explain it at all
autistic. her childhood was basically learning how to mask to become what she thinks of as a proper lady.
The Garden by the Crane Wives. That is all. Just... That song.

# narrative...
a curious child, always first into the unknown, whether it was into the darkest corners of the library or into the woods, far from prying eyes. there were always whispers, though. a sad child, and angry girl. always listening, always thinking, always scheming, whether it was for something as meaningless as sneaking a second dessert from the kitchen, to lying about when she'd return from a ride. a bane of the house, lurking in a shadow, rushing about a corner. she rarely played, preferring to watch from the sides, as though she was learning how to be from the other children. where was she from? karhold, of course. any attempt to suggest otherwise was met with a blank stare. her parents? Lord and Lady Karstark. She would die for them. Certainly, she would allow the realm to go to ruin for them. whether or not she loves in the same way as others do, she loves fully, and without question.
she travels to king's landing with a simple mission given to her, to find a match that advances their house. myranda has a personal mission, in line with what her father has told her, but slightly to the left. a family, one of her own, one she does not have to worry about discarding her, about leaving her behind. something of her own. of course, that is easier said and done. her slightly stilted manners are less obvious in the north, but surrounded by the flowery courtiers she feels out of place, half the ghost she had been in her youth.
# wanted connections.
westerosi book club: friends.
with hours upon hours spent in the red keep's library, she's bound to make friends. those just as enamoured by books as she, who is willing to spend time listening to her rave about her latest read, while she listens in turn. perhaps the friendship goes deeper, leaves the library doors.
adventure buddies: friends.
king's landing is just a smidge bigger than karhold, and the poet in myranda calls to explore the city. she wants to see mummers shows and drink in alehouses and experience her life before it is over. somewhat scared, but mostly just excited, this character comes with her to nights away from the keep, because safety is found in numbers.
betrothal: romantic.
when she finally secures a match, she is over the moon, to have done the one thing tasked to her. within moments, though, the reality comes crashing down. what if, in getting to know her, they decide they do not like what they have seen. whether she reinvents herself to be something they might like or pulls away entirely, there are few options for a rabbit heart wanting to flee.
# random headcanons.
Has a lil greensight when she's nice and cozy with the weirwood trees. these dreams make 0 sense without context and even she mostly just thinks shes a lil crazy so she doesn't talk extensively about it, especially not to southerners
not a swordsman by any stretch of the imagination, but does know very basic self defence and keeps a dagger on her person at most times, though she mostly uses it as a tool
has an aversion to rosemary, and cannot explain it at all
autistic. her childhood was basically learning how to mask to become what she thinks of as a proper lady.
