#Alice and Tarrant getting married

[salehasposts]

I’m sorry but whoever made this, it’s so freaking ADORABLE 🥺😩❤️

MY BABIES <3

[corfides]

Something some of you may know is that I absolutely love Alice in Wonderland, in fact it's kinda my whole aesthetic's origin. From the look of the world Tim Burton created to the characters in the books and the movies, it all has me in a chokehold. Now, most importantly, I do also write Alice Kingsleigh, which is something I've been meaning to do more actively. She's an absolute gem of a character, in literally every way, at least to me. The way I write Alice- She's very much on the autism spectrum. As much as she doesn't conform to society's ideals and norms because she likes being herself, it's also very much because she doesn't understand them. To her, these rules of the Edwardian era are simply frustrating and strange. She's also very literal in her communication of feelings- whether it's to explain that she needs time to process something or whether it's to openly defend her boundaries and defy the things that are seen as 'proper'. Another side of her neurodivergency is her total honesty no matter who she's talking to. Alice is always genuine. Even if she might suspect her answer won't be enjoyed or is not expected, she won't lie. Be it her proposal, ( ❝ Well, everyone expects me to. ❞) or her reaction to being called the wrong Alice, ( ❝ How can I be the wrong Alice if it's my dream? ❞), she always answers with whatever pops into her head, which is sometimes met with confusion from whoever she's talking to. Beyond that, she also is adamant when it comes to her interests and goals. There's no way you can force Alice into doing something she doesn't want, but she will bend the world and turn it upside down to achieve what she wants. She's the last to give up on things that mean something to her. Same goes for the people that are important to her. It's pretty obvious even in canon that she'll go to extremes for her loved ones. I'd like to touch on a relationship in particular for a moment, that being Alice and Tarrant, the hatter. When it comes to the movies specifically, I believe the two had some of the most phenomenal chemistry possibly caught in a movie ever. And while they are a magnificent depiction of a true friendship, and I adore their endless support of each other, I mourn the fact that we didn't get them as a romantic relationship. They fit each other perfectly, and Tarrant is a phenomenal foil to Hamish. Hamish is rigid, uncreative and a terrible person, and society tries to make Alice marry him. Tarrant is mad, all over the place, colourful, and most importantly, he's never forced to be with her- he is her choice, fully, completely. In my opinion, it's clear that Tarrant loves her. The way he pleads with her to stay with him, and how he protects her even at the cost of his life, it's almost ironic that we never get them confirmed in canon. Mind you, his words stick with her through the entire movie- When he tells her she's 'lost her muchness', Alice proceeds to try and prove him wrong for the rest of the runtime. Because he's the only one who doesn't doubt her. He states 'I'd know him anywhere' (We'll glance over his gender mix-up for now), and he says this over and over. Later, in the sequel, he also refers to her as 'My Alice'. (If that's not obvious..) I could point out many more moments of the pair being.. extremely fond of each other, but I do have a favourite. It's the end of the sequel, when Alice has to leave again.

The way they look at each other. The way Tarrant takes her hand. The devoion he pours into every moment he spends with her is absolutely wrecking. And she looks back at him with similar affection. I think at least a part if not all of her really wanted to stay with him. The way she lingers when she lets go of him, the way he looks after her, you cannot tell me that wasn't love.

No I will never get over them. Or her. I love her. I love them.

Stories That Are Told

Pairing: Tarrant “Hatter” Hightopp x Reader

Pronouns: She/Her

Word Count: 2.2k

Summary: (Y/n)’s so used to being the background character in everyone’s story that she forget she can be the main character in her own.

Warnings: Slight angst but majority fluff!

A/N: I love this man with my whole being omg pls

Stumbling into Wonderland with Alice had been a wonderful thing for not only Alice, but (Y/n) as well. For Alice it was an escape from all the things she didn’t wanna do and would never wanna do. She wasn’t forced to marry some sod of a guy who’d make her miserable for the rest of her life or to be the proper lady she was expected to be, but instead she got a taste of freedom. And although it was an escape for (Y/n) as well, it was an escape of a different kind.

In the other world, with it’s dreary skies and monotonous patterns and cycles, (Y/n) lived a very humdrum life. Her family had never been as fortunate as Alice in any ways of the sorts, it was a miracle that they were friends to begin with. Alice’s father had been friends with (Y/n)’s since boyhood and because of that, he always made sure they knew they were welcome to anything of his that they wished. And while (Y/n)’s father had never taken advantage of that from the way Alice’s mother treated (Y/n) and her family, it wouldn’t be hard to think otherwise.

When Charles was still around, she hadn’t done anything out of line. The older woman always kept to herself, occasionally having an afternoon cup of tea with her own mom. However, her true colors and feelings came to light after the passing of her husband. During the next few months after her husband’s absence, the (L/n)s were there for Kingsleighs. Although they didn’t have the funds to help them monetarily (for they also didn’t need it), they offered their labor and services to the two as much as they needed. Farm work, house cleaning, garden maintenance. Anything you could think they had done. But as soon as Helen was well (as well as you could be after losing someone so dear) , she had forbid them from coming to their property. She didn’t believe her and Alice should associate with people of “such low stature” because it didn’t “align with their image”. But that had never stopped Alice.

Anywhere Alice went, (Y/n) was always there by her side right along with her. They practically went everywhere together and that hadn’t changed since they arrived in Wonderland. (Y/n) was grateful that she had chased after her friend. It was like she knew something would happen. Afterall, crazy things always happen when you put two curious girls together for more than a moment. The friends they had made since they arrived were nothing short of lovely. She knew her sister would describe them as odd characters and disturbing individuals. Telling her to stay far away from them and to not associate herself with those types. But what was wrong with being odd or even disturbing? The only things worth doing in life were a bit odd and disturbing and if that made her peculiar than so be it. 

For the first time in her life, she felt as though she belonged. Sure, it wasn’t her story nor her destiny to be here as it was Alice but that did not mean she did not appreciate Wonderland for what it was. The story had never been her story, not here, and certainly not where they were from. Alice was the main chat and she was the topic that would get trickled in after. 

“Everyone has a part to play, (Y/n). Even if it is not large or as set in stone, each person’s role is necessary for the story to progress, even yours. You’ll see.” the words of that tricky caterpillar replayed in her head over and over again whenever she had a moment to think. What had he meant by that? Was her story not more than to be here in support of her dearest friend and the latest edition to their friends? Was she not just a tool in the scheme of things? (Y/n) had never known people of lesser importance as herself to contribute much of anything big to a legacy as large as Alice’s! 

From her end of the table, she watched as Hatter threw his hat high into the air before it landed on his head causing everyone to erupt in a jostled mess of laughter and cheering. She smiled fondly from a far. Tarrant was a kind man. No matter what was going on or where they were, he always had a way of making her feel included. That’s just who he was. He had known what it was like to feel excluded from things and the last thing he’d wanna do is be the cause of that for someone else. But it was nothing more than his nature, that’s it.

“You know, you should just tell him how you feel.” a velvety voice sounded from beside her ear causing her to jump. The (h/c) haired girl glared at the purple cat, reaching a hand to swat him away but he disappeared once more before appearing on her other side. “He watches you often, even when there is not many around to see. But I always do of course.” The Cheshire cat said in a sure tell tone. The girl scoffed at him, shoving another small pastry into her mouth.

“I’m not in the mood for one of your jokes today, cat. So if you’ve come to mock my feelings during my 2nd to last day in Wonderland, I wish you well and send you off.” she huffed out, crossing her arms across her chest, turning her gaze away from him back to Tarrant who was already looking at her. The Hatter gave her a secret wink and a smile before turning back to the March Hare who seemed rather frazzled about something. Or perhaps excited. But once again, the grinning cat appeared in front of her face once more.

“Silly girl, you ignore the plain truth in front of you? I can see why you and Alice get along so well, both of you can be quite foolish. Oh well, the story isn’t over yet after all.” and with that he was gone. What did he mean by that? The story was clearly over. Alice had done what she set out to do. The Jabberwocky had been slain, the White Queen ruled once again, and all had been made well. And what was with everyone with stories? Not everything you can do will always be a story and not every story comes to an end. She decided not to dwell much on it. This was her last night she’d ever spend in Wonderland and she’d rather like to keep it in good memory.

So when the White Queen offered her a hand to dance she took it, their dresses swaying in the wind in oppositional unison. They all danced with one another, twirling, laughing, and having a grand time. The entire time the smile never once left (Y/n)’s face which a certain hatted man enjoyed with all his being.

--------------------------------------------

“I can’t believe you’re leaving today. It seems as if it was only yesterday when you arrived.” the girl swiveled around to see the red head there, a bittersweet smile on his face. His smile grew once she turned to face him. Removing his hat, he bowed as he grabbed one of her hands placing a delicate kiss to the top of it. “I am delighted to have known a woman as graceful as you.” hot tears sprung into her eyes which she quickly got rid of before he stood up. Giggling some she hopped onto the large sit swing, motioning for him to join her.

“Don’t get sad yet, Hatter. I’ve still got a few hours left. You can’t rid of me that easily.” he joined her on the swing, a wide grin still on his face. Although it was partly real, she could tell there was some sadness lingering behind it. (Y/n) turned her gaze to the sight in front of them. From the large benched swing, you could see just about all of wonderland over the edge of the cliff. “Besides, there’s not much to miss. I’m just me.”

“And ‘just you’ is a lot! I’ll miss everything about you. The way you mimic the bird calls you hear, the way you get excited when the rock you skipped across the water goes further than you imagined,” she looked at him in shock as he continued to speak, “E-even the smaller things like how you leave the crust of your sandwich for last and give your crumbs to the ants. But I think more importantly I’ll...I’ll just miss your presence.” he said the last part softly, staring off the edge of the cliff to avoid her gaze. A million thoughts raced through her heads as he spoke. Could it really be? Could he really share the same feelings as she did? (Y/n) reached a shaky (s/c) hand to lay on top of Hatter’s pale one, intertwining their fingers.

“Hatter, I've got something to tell you. During my time here in Wonderland, I’ve enjoyed every second I’ve had with everyone. But more importantly, I’ve enjoyed my time so much with you and I believe it’s only fair to share with you that my feelings I have for you go beyond those of normal friendship. I guess you can say I’ve grown...quite mad for you.” his head whipped to face her as he stared into her eyes, tears welling within his own. He flashed her another smile except this one was genuine, filled with the love and warmth he had shown her the entirety of her time in Wonderland.

“(Y/n)! Alice sent me to fetch you. I’m afraid it’s time for the two of you to head back.”

-----------------------------

After a lot of shedded tears, heartfelt speeches, and goodbyes that were nothing short of wholesome, it was time for the two to head home. Alice patted (Y/n)’s shoulder before holding her arm out for her to grab. As they neared the portal, (Y/n) turned around once more to stare at her friends but when she got to Tarrant, her heart began to break. The gaze they held with one another was long until she simply couldn’t take it. Without thinking she ran up to him once more, grabbing his shoulders tightly.

“Hatter, Tarrant, I need to know how you feel. I couldn’t live with myself if I left and never knew.” he shook his head, looking away from her as he tried to stop the waterworks that were withheld behind the dam. Hot tears streamed down the delicate skin of the girl’s face. “Hatter...please.” her voice was broken as she begged.

“I believe I wasn’t honest myself either. I am completely enamored by you, my dear. I wish I had said something sooner but even though I couldn’t, I’ll always hold a special place for you in here.” he said, placing a hand over his heart. Standing on the tips of her toes, she leaned forward placing a quick peck to his cheek.

“What if it isn’t too late? What if I stayed?” she started, watching as he shook his head, “Hatter listen! You may think I’d regret if I stay but I think I would regret even more not following my heart the first time it’s ever tried to tell me something. Nothing would make me happier than staying here with you...that is if you’d allow it.” a silence fell over as everyone awaited his answer. Without another thought Hatter leaned down, pressing his lips to hers. The kiss was soft and sweet. Filled with a silent promise, a silent vow to care for her as deeply as his heart will allow. 

“I do not know what I did to get so lucky, but I would do it again if needed.” she felt herself grow flustered at his words. A quick peck was placed on his lips before walking over to Alice once again. The blonde had tears of her own in her eyes. She was glad her friend had found something to fight for, something to call her own. But also for the first time in many years, they would not see each other everyday as they once did. They both stared at each other before throwing themselves into each other's arms, laughing in unison as bittersweet tears fell.

“Good luck. Make sure you put your foot down. You’re Alice! You listen to no one and march to no one’s drum but your own.” Alice gave her a curt nod.

“Take care. We’ll meet again, do not doubt it.” 

Although Alice’s story had seemingly come to an end, it seemed as though (Y/n)’s story was just beginning. For once she wasn’t the side character in someone’s tale, but the main character in her own.

More Catherine x Reader? I wanna know more about her... Angst 👉👈

I need to finish other x readers but 👀 not opposed to getting more requests -

"I hope the tea party is to your liking?" Catherine chuckled, acting more formal than usual as she poured you tea "How could I turn down an invitation from Riddle?" You smiled, reaching for her hand but she turned away. She gave a short shake of her head in disapproval before walking to Riddle's side, filling his cup as she went off to further assist. In Catherine's absence you decided to eavesdrop on other Heartslabyul students at the unbirthday party.

"Did you hear? Tarrant Mercury gave a speech about searching for his lost betrothed?" "Seriously? Rich families are still marrying off their kids super young? Weren't they like 5 when it was decided?" Two bickered back and forth "Tarrant..." The voice made you turn your head "Cat-" you started as you looked at the girl "My queen, c-can I be excused..?" "Yes, you don't have to ask my for my permission-" before the dorm leader could finish Catherine curtsied, quickly walking away. You would glance at her as she left, thinking about what to do. Minutes passed as you thought but there was only one thing that came to mind. The sheer terror in Catherine's eyes and voice when she uttered that boy's name.

"Y/N." Riddle spoke curtly, looking in the direction she ran off to. You widened your eyes but nodded, stumbling as you got up "Thank you for the invitation!" You quickly said before running in the direction of the pink cat. "Why... Why...!!!" In the distance you could hear Catherine's shouting.

As you approached her you could see deep claw marks in the trees that surrounded her, the girl trembling as she gasped for air. Walking closer you saw blood trailing down her chin from the cat clenching her jaw. Her eyes were closed but tears could be seen running down her cheeks. "Catherine.." You started which made her look at you, amber eyes now a light blue. Your eyes widened at the sight before calming down "What's wrong?" You tried to touch her cheek but she pulled away "Nothing!"

"You're trembling..." You put a hand on her shoulder, feeling the girl freeze up "Tarrant..." She started "He... I..." She struggled for words "You know him?" You tilted your head. Catherine's eyes widened in fear "H-he's a cruel boy... Mad as a hatter. He's obsessed with perfection..." Her own claws dug into her palm "my mother... She... She pawned me off to their family for more money and recognition. She said if we were to marry when we were older it would be good for her.. But that boy... He's heartless. " she desperately clung to you "if he's looking for his betrothed that means he's looking for me.. He's looking for Alice!!!" The girl was panting as she tried to calm down. Quickly you hugged her "Catherine, it's okay. I won't let him find you.." She girl went rigid again before relaxing, leaning into you. Tears fell from her eyes as she hid her face against you "I can't go back there... "

Every summer before Crown Prince Taylor’s next year at Hogwarts, they visit The Continent to learn at the famed academy called Aretuza, under the tutelage of Rectoress Tissaia De Vries. Everything is fine until their final summer after their 7th year where Tissaia and Taylor fall in love (well they were already secretly crushing on the other). However Taylor’s parents disapprove of the match and demand Taylor to return home to her duties, hence a fight ensues. Taylor flees back to the Ten Kingdoms and back to Hogwarts to become assistant Quidditich Umpire and Coach. 18 years later, the newly crowned King of the 10 Realms, King Alexander attends a special congregation at Aretuza in order to vote on letting The Continent become the 11th Realm, like has happened every time a new High King or Queen is crowned but it has failed because the rest of the 9 Realms at the time were at war until Mirana and Alice brought them together and invited USA – 10th Realm – into the fold. The Rectoress of Aretuza vows to get Taylor back into her bed but is horrified to learn that Taylor is married with four legitimate heirs and five illegitimate children but nonetheless still wishes to earn back the love of her life.

What lies in your past?

After the Queen and King of Hearts were finally forced to go the Isle, the press had been all over the future Kingsley family, especially Alice, with how vocal she had been about the two being sent away.

Her fiance was tired of it. He hated all the attention she was bringing to the home and all he wanted was some peace and quiet. The tensions were obvious and one night, they’d snapped, screaming at each other until Alice had stormed out of the house, finding herself in a quiet, empty Wonderland.

Well, almost. A soldier was walking the woods as he tried to process what had happened to the royal family. Seeing each other, the two had a moment of regarding each other.

It was no secret that Alice was beautiful, not to mention Wonderlandian food tends to do a number on the mind. And he was kind, despite the situation. It was a moment of weakness the woman would come to regret.

It was a couple of months after her wedding that Alice had her first daughter. Alice wasn’t ready for a child. She didn’t want one. Naming her after a flower (reminding her of the flowers she so disliked in Wonderland) was an easy way to distance herself, but, as far as everyone, including the woman herself knew, Iris was fully the product of her and her new husband.

That is, until the day Iris first shifted.

She was about 2 months old. She had woken up and started crying. Just as Alice reached the crib to pick the baby up, the baby had faded, wailing mouth last, and reappeared on the changing table behind her.

Alice turned, unsure if she had just seen that correctly. The baby was still wailing, but now she was lying on her changing table. Slowly, she makes her way to Iris to change her, growing scared. That shifting ability… She’d only seen it in one place.

That afternoon, she’d taken her baby to Wonderland, searching for the Knave, who was startled to see her, and with a child, at that. “What is this?”

“Until earlier today, I thought this was my husband’s daughter. But then she… moved. Like the Cheshire Cat. I don’t know what it’s called.”

“Shifting. I did at this age, too. I’m half imp– it’s where the gift comes from. Alice, are you telling me this baby…?”

Alice sighs. “She’s certainly not my husband’s.”

He’d been taken aback. He hadn’t expected this to come from just one night. “What… what am I supposed to… do?”

“Isn’t there something she can take? To keep her from…” Alice looks anxious as she looks down at her sleeping baby.

“No. Only learn to control it, with time. She’s got imp blood in her, there’s no stopping her genetics.” He couldn’t take his eyes off of the baby– his baby– he couldn’t believe this was happening– was it happening?

“You were very nervous about the whole thing,” Cheshie remarks, purring a bit.

“She showed up with a baby,” the Knave remarks dryly.

Iris squirms a bit. “Can you please keep going?”

“Of course. Sorry.”

Alice had sighed, giving up hope. “Then there’s no way to keep my husband from learning about this.”

“I’m afraid not. She will continue shifting with time. It will become more obvious. I wish there was something I could do to hel–”

“You’ve done enough,” the woman cuts him off angrily, looking at him. “You’ve ruined enough.”

With that, Alice left Wonderland to come up with an explanation as to why her daughter might randomly vanish on her husband.

“What did she tell him?” Iris’ curiosity was too great. She knew her mother and… apparently, not her father… had remained married.

“We don’t… know, but whatever she said, he accepted it. Or gave her another chance. Whatever he did, he kept up the lie.” Cheshie looks at her.

Nodding, Iris turns to the Knave to continue. He sighs. “Well, the story picks up three years later.”

Alice, carrying her second daughter, her wonderful Ally, her baby, and pulling her toddler behind her, entered Wonderland for what would be one of her last trips. This time, though, she went to find some of her friends from her childhood.

The Hatter and the Hare were thrilled to see her, and to meet her beautiful daughters. The Cheshire Cat was more… vaguely concerned. He’d spoken to his grand nephew and knew some things about the elder Kingsley daughter. After enjoying some tea, Alice had quietly spilled the whole story about Iris to the other two, and dropped a bombshell.

“I’m not ready to raise an imp child. I can’t keep up with her and the baby, too. Do you think you could help, having her here in Wonderland, for just a bit? I… I need to focus on the baby.”

Without even thinking twice, the pair had said yes. Cheshire, however, had narrowed his eyes slightly at Alice before quietly shifting away to discuss what was going on with Pusey– Iris’ father.

Iris nods, sighing. “So Ally isn’t just the baby she tried harder with. Ally was literally just a replacement for me, wasn’t she?”

“Now, don’t say that, my flower, she isn’t–” Pusey starts, almost reaching out to comfort her, but stopping his hand.

“No! It’s true, isn’t it?! She had Ally to replace me. To have a proper baby. Not some Wonderlandian freak.” Iris tears up, shaking, starting to cry, putting her head in her hands.

“Hey, hey, what’s going on out here?” Came a loud voice. Iris didn’t look up, she didn’t have to.

Tarrant Hightopp quickly came to join the group that had taken over his tea-table, only to see the little girl he’d practically raised crying into her hands. As the man went to comfort her, he saw who was sitting across from her. “Oh, my. It’s that, isn’t it? Well, it must be, because if it isn’t, then you’v got some nerve, sir, I must say! So if it’s not that, which I’m quite sure it is, then you’d best be clearing off!”

Iris sniffles, sobbing. Cheshie sighs. “Not now, Hatter. Kiddo, maybe we should go and get some space, okay?”

Thinking about it, Iris nods, getting up, still crying, but following Cheshie away from the rest of them.

Naming her after a flower (reminding her of the flowers she so disliked in Wonderland) was an easy way to distance herself, but, as far as everyone, including the woman herself knew, Iris was fully the product of her and her new husband.

That is, until the day Iris first shifted.

She was about 2 months old. She had woken up and started crying. Just as Alice reached the crib to pick the baby up, the baby had faded, wailing mouth last, and reappeared on the changing table behind her.

Alice turned, unsure if she had just seen that correctly. The baby was still wailing, but now she was lying on her changing table. Slowly, she makes her way to Iris to change her, growing scared. That shifting ability... She'd only seen it in one place.

That afternoon, she'd taken her baby to Wonderland, searching for the Knave, who was startled to see her, and with a child, at that. "What is this?"

"Until earlier today, I thought this was my husband's daughter. But then she... moved. Like the Cheshire Cat. I don't know what it's called."

"Shifting. I did at this age, too. I'm half imp-- it's where the gift comes from. Alice, are you telling me this baby...?"

Alice sighs. "She's certainly not my husband's."

He'd been taken aback. He hadn't expected this to come from just one night. "What... what am I supposed to... do?"

"Isn't there something she can take? To keep her from..." Alice looks anxious as she looks down at her sleeping baby.

"No. Only learn to control it, with time. She's got imp blood in her, there's no stopping her genetics." He couldn't take his eyes off of the baby-- his baby-- he couldn't believe this was happening-- was it happening?

"You were very nervous about the whole thing," Cheshie remarks, purring a bit.

"She showed up with a baby," the Knave remarks dryly.

Iris squirms a bit. "Can you please keep going?"

"Of course. Sorry."

Alice had sighed, giving up hope. "Then there's no way to keep my husband from learning about this."

"I'm afraid not. She will continue shifting with time. It will become more obvious. I wish there was something I could do to hel--"

"You've done enough," the woman cuts him off angrily, looking at him. "You've ruined enough."

With that, Alice left Wonderland to come up with an explanation as to why her daughter might randomly vanish on her husband.

"What did she tell him?" Iris' curiosity was too great. She knew her mother and... apparently, not her father... had remained married.

"We don't... know, but whatever she said, he accepted it. Or gave her another chance. Whatever he did, he kept up the lie." Cheshie looks at her.

Nodding, Iris turns to the Knave to continue. He sighs. "Well, the story picks up three years later."

Alice, carrying her second daughter, her wonderful Ally, her baby, and pulling her toddler behind her, entered Wonderland for what would be one of her last trips. This time, though, she went to find some of her friends from her childhood.

The Hatter and the Hare were thrilled to see her, and to meet her beautiful daughters. The Cheshire Cat was more... vaguely concerned. He’d spoken to his grand nephew and knew some things about the elder Kingsley daughter. After enjoying some tea, Alice had quietly spilled the whole story about Iris to the other two, and dropped a bombshell.

“I’m not ready to raise an imp child. I can’t keep up with her and the baby, too. Do you think you could help, having her here in Wonderland, for just a bit? I... I need to focus on the baby.”

Without even thinking twice, the pair had said yes. Cheshire, however, had narrowed his eyes slightly at Alice before quietly shifting away to discuss what was going on with Pusey-- Iris’ father.

Meanwhile, a young Iris had made her way around the table to find someone her age. Quickly, the little girl had rushed over to the other, smiling, and, cheerfully, she says, “Hi! I Iris!”

The other looks over and giggles, speaking carefully in response. “[October, because even in a memory, Iris won't let anyone use Toby's dead name].”

“The rest, as they say, is history,” purrs Cheshie. “At least, as far as things between the two of you.”

“Toby’s always been an amazing friend. But... I’m confused. Does he know that...?”

“He does.” Pusey nods. “Not about me, specifically, but he knows you have imp in you. And he knows some things about your family. He walked in while the Hare and the Hatter were discussing it, when he was twelve.”

“Why didn’t he tell me?” Iris looks hurt. “If he knew, why didn’t he...”

“I asked him not to.” Cheshie walks across the table to stand in front of her. “It would have been too much for you. You were still coming to terms about your mother’s love, hearing this would have crushed you. We knew that when the time was right, you’d come to us. And you have.”

Iris nods, sighing. “So Ally isn’t just the baby she tried harder with. Ally was literally just a replacement for me, wasn’t she?”

“Now, don’t say that, my flower, she isn’t--” Pusey starts, almost reaching out to comfort her, but stopping his hand.

“No! It’s true, isn’t it?! She had Ally to replace me. To have a proper baby. Not some Wonderlandian freak.” Iris tears up, shaking, starting to cry, putting her head in her hands.

“Hey, hey, what’s going on out here?” Came a loud voice. Iris didn’t look up, she didn’t have to.

Tarrant Hightopp quickly came to join the group that had taken over his tea-table, only to see the little girl he’d practically raised crying into her hands. As the man went to comfort her, he saw who was sitting across from her. “Oh, my. It’s that, isn’t it? Well, it must be, because if it isn’t, then you’v got some nerve, sir, I must say! So if it’s not that, which I’m quite sure it is, then you’d best be clearing off!”

Iris sniffles, sobbing. Cheshie sighs. “Not now, Hatter. Kiddo, maybe we should go and get some space, okay?”

Thinking about it, Iris nods, getting up, still crying, but following Cheshie away from the rest of them.

Bad Idea

… or how Theresa became the Queen of Hearts.

Prompt : The Queen of Hearts was not always a heartless killer.

Words : 1361

Author’s note : This si my last solo coming from my account @UnderlandRuler. I based myself on the fact we did not know how the Queen of Hearts became who she is. And this is basically a mix of every Alice in Wonderland versions I know. Using the face of Sebastian Stan even if I wrote the name of Hatter from Burton’s movie… Okay this is totally AU xD

Rating : Mature

Warnings : Mentions of drugs, alcohol, sex and blood.

♕ She was the most beautiful of all. She was the most innocent girl the kingdom ever had. Was… She is no longer what she used to be. No one is what they used to be. Everyone changes. Every second. Every hour. Every day. We change in a moment. This moment is no more. This moment takes with him, a bit of our soul. But for her— the moment did not take a bit of her soul. He took everything that made her unique. Everything people liked in her.

Theresa was the first daughter of the King and Queen of Underland. A land darker than what it seemed at the first look. You may see a lot of colours when you step into this land but this was all a facade. A facade to hide darker, nastier and uglier secrets. No matter how good the King and Queen were, it was not enough. The land was rotten to the core. Either you were a magic creature or a simple human, you could be hiding the most awful corpses in your garden. Literally.

The King and the Queen had twins daughters two years after the birth of Theresa : Mirana and Iracebeth. Mirana was the calm one who preferred to play chess with her twin while, Theresa preferred to run in the garden. She had a friend. He was the son of the court’s Hatter. The Queen loved a good hat and imposed this fashion style to her daughters. The name of the princess’s —only— friend was Tarrant Hightopp. He was a year and half older than Theresa and kept reminded her —friendly— his older age. He always stayed with her. Comforting her when her parents died. Making her laugh when no one else’s could. He was her only friend. The only one she ever had. The only one who did not care about her statue of princess. He never tried to use it for his own purposes.

When they grew up, everyone thought Theresa and Tarrant would get married. Maybe she even thought so when she was alone in her dark room. But the princess thought he liked other girls. After all, he was older than her and handsome. He could have whoever he wanted. Even her sisters who found themselves a passion in hat-making when Tarrant turned around 14. They were too young. So was Theresa but she kept being his friend. To death as they used to swear when they were little.

Theresa felt her feelings changed when she turned 17. Tarrant was no longer the innocent boy she played with in the gardens. He was the perfect portrait of the man she should not fall for. He became a drug user and an alcoholic. He became like everyone in the land but she could not unseen him like who he used to be. Even if she was no fool. Theresa saw who he became… It was too painful to see what all those moments put together had done to him.

Theresa became the Queen of Underland at 21. She was someone else that day. After what happened the night before.

Tarrant came to her room and, told her everything she always wished to hear from him. How beautiful she was and how he wished to marry her. He was telling how much he loved her. They spent so many years playing games together. At the beginning they were innocent and childish. But one day, he became jealous over the princes who came in the kingdom to maybe one day, propose to her. None of them did. Theresa never knew what her friend told them hut it was apparently scary enough for them to leave the hour after. Her uncle who became the ruler of the land until she could become the Queen, was not pleased by what Tarrant was doing to every prince who came for Theresa’s hand. Even if he kept acting like a jealous boyfriend, he never proposed to her. He kept sleeping with women there and there. But now, he was hers. Tarrant was confessing his love to her.

Love— that feeling she always thought was forbidden to her but here it was. Here he was. Tarrant slept in her bed. Nothing happened. They only slept in the same bed.

During the night, Theresa woke up to feel her bed empty. She knew Tarrant had troubles to sleep. He must be walking around the castle, she thought. She heard cries from the room next to hers. Mirana! With what happened to her parents, Theresa ran to her room to see if she was fine but what she found was not what she had wished to see. Her parents were murdered in front of Theresa, and deep down she wished she had found her sister in the same situation. Tarrant in the bed of her own sister. He could have choose whoever he wanted in the castle but, preferred her sister. The two of them together. In the same bed. Giving themselves in the pleasure of flesh.

Tears rolled down her cheeks as she walked back to her room. There, she closed her eyelids but could not sleep any more knowing what is happening just in front of her. He never loved her. He never wished to marry. He only used her to get what he wanted. Her sister. It was her. She should have seen that coming but Theresa had been too blind by her love for this man.

In the morning, she saw a white rose next to her breakfast with a note from the cheater. Theresa asked the guards to find him and take him off of the castle. He had no permission to come back ever. If he did tried to come back, they had the order to take to the prisons and tie him up. The guards would come to her and Theresa would personally take care off him.

She looked at herself in the mirror as the maids get the brunette ready for the ceremony. Her blue eyes fell on her cleavage. The necklace of Tarrant. A white rose. She stopped the maids and took it off. She left in her room and walked out of the room in her red dress. When she came back in her room, a crown was on her head. Now, she had another problem to take care off. Mirana. Her sister.

“ Guards! Put the princess Mirana in prison for traitorous. I will personally judge her so, that no one disturbs me while I talk to her. Do you understand me? ”

Theresa came in the celling of her sister. She smiled to her softly and kneeled down in front of the blonde creature. While the others will see an angel, she saw a demon, a parasite she had to kill before it contaminates everyone. The Queen did not answer to all the questions of her sister. She was acting like an innocent young woman at the perfection. If Theresa did not seen them together, she could have doubt it.

A little knife in her hand, she planted the dagger in her sister’s chest. Theresa’s crimson lips were in Mirana’s ear.

“ You know exactly why you are here whore. ”

Theresa’s tone was as cold as ice. She opened her sister’s chest ans took off her chest from it. Blood was dripping off from the Queen’s pale hand. A smirk on her face she walked back to her room. The heart placed in a little but pretty box with her former lover’s necklace, she asked a guard to deliver it at Tarrant’s address with a simple message.

“ Please, precise him that if he comes back or loves someone ever again, that is what will happen to them. “

Theresa sat on her bed and smiled. The smile who delivers a shiver down your spine. The kind of smile which could freeze your blood.

Not even twelve hours after she became the Queen, Theresa was a new person. No longer blinded by love. No longer innocent and naive. No longer who she used to be. She was now the Queen of Hearts. ♕

Where They Were, Where They Are Now - Lucy Griffiths

She was the Nightwatchman, Lady Marian, the proud and strong lady in Nottingham who fed information to our favorite outlaws, stood toe to toe with the Sheriff and caught the attention and desire of Guy of Gisborne.  Here is a list of the project Lucy Griffiths has worked in since her days as Marian ended. 

U Be Dead (2009) – Bethan Ancell

A doctor and his girlfriend are stalked by a woman who claims to be in love with him. Meanwhile, the man falls in love with a younger woman. Based on a true story.

Character bio: The much younger and second fiancee of Dr. Jan Falkowski, who is caught up in the events as the doctor’s stalker refuses to relent. 

Fan comments: Not one that I have seen or heard much about at all, so I have little insight to offer.  It seems like it could be a suspenseful story, and the cast is pretty strong, so it does have that.  

Collision (2009) – Jane Tarrant

The story of a major road accident and a group of people who have never met, but who all share one single defining moment that will change their lives.

Character bio: Jane is living a normal, possibly dull, life; she works at a fast food joint and living with her boyfriend.  When he suggests they get married, she gets frustrated and is afraid of being trapped.  When the massive car crash drives victims to her workplace, she meets and begins an affair with Richard Reeves, an older business man. 

Fan comments: I did see this one, and enjoyed the suspense and the trail of stories that weave together at the collision point. The individual characters are intriguing, and the plot holds your attention. Lucy does very well, though it was a shock to see her in blonde hair!

Inspector Lewis (2010) – Madeleine Escher (1 episode) 

Inspector Robert Lewis and Sergeant James Hathaway solve the tough cases that the learned inhabitants of Oxford throw at them. Falling Darkness -  During a Halloween, one of Dr Hobson’s college roommates is found dead with a stake through her heart and a garlic bulb in her mouth.

Character Bio: Madeleine Escher is one of four students living in a house that is apparently haunted, but is one of the three who are initially unconcerned. 

Fan comments: I have never seen any Inspector Lewis, nor this episode, though it sounds clearly like a Halloween episode with supposedly supernatural connections to crimes that have mundane answers.  

The Little House (2010) – Ruth

A reluctant mother, young Ruth Clee’s post natal vulnerability and failure to bond with her baby is exploited by Elizabeth, her manipulative mother-in-law in a battle to seize control of the child.

 Character Bio: Described as emotionally fragile, Ruth is diagnosed with post-partum psychosis after the birth of her son.  Her mother-in-law’s controlling nature only compounds Ruth’s other troubles, which include spectral sightings of her own mother, confusion and memory loss.  

Fan comments: From the reviews I read, it feels like the script lets the actors and characters down, rushing development and skipping things that would lead to better understanding of their emotional development.  

Dirt 3 (2011) - Store Manager (voice)

A racing game about a guy and a woman wanting to race against humanity can they do it? Your story your choice.

Fan comments: I couldn’t find anything about a character, so there is not much to talk about her. 

Billboard (2011) - The Ex

A dark, twisted tale of two young suicidal characters who, through a series of unfortunate events, come together for one crazy night.

To shake things up, here is the teaser trailer, which does feature a lot of Lucy:

And here is another video of her talking about the project:

Awakening (2011) – Jenna Lestrade

Two sisters find themselves on opposite sides of a zombie uprising.

Another video clip, as there is next to nothing else to be found about this made for TV movie. 

The Numbers Station (2013) – Meredith

A disgraced black ops agent is dispatched to a remote CIA broadcast station to protect a code operator. Soon, they find themselves in a life-or-death struggle to stop a deadly plot before it’s too late.

Character bio: One of the code dispatchers / operators at the broadcast station; leaves a code for Katherine (lady lead), which is a vital part of the code breaking that needs to be done. 

Fan comments: This seems like a thriller that I would be interested in, with codes and a race against the clock.  Lucy’s part does not seem large, though it is a part important to the plot. 

True Blood (2012-2013) Nora Gainesborough (21 episodes)

Telepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse encounters a strange new supernatural world when she meets the mysterious Bill, a southern Louisiana gentleman and vampire.

Character bio: “ Nora was irreverent, intelligent, intimidating, cool under pressure and a very good liar. Like many siblings, she and her “brother” enjoyed a fiery love/hate relationship. Though she cared for him deeply, and looked up to him, she dedicated her life to a higher purpose. However, she lacked self-discipline and, unlike her maker, seemed to have little regard for human life. Like Godric, Eric and Pam, Nora spoke Swedish. Nora was a devout religious vampire and when she was captured by the Authority and placed in her cell, the only thing she did is pray to Lilith. When Lilith mercilessly destroyed Godric, Nora finally realized that Lilith was evil and cowered in fear of her.” (from True Blood Wiki)

Fan comments: I will say that I have no intention of watching this show.  Vampires on HBO is not really my speed.  Though from that description of Nora, there might be moments were we see Marian’s brand of stubbornness and fire showing up.   

Winter’s Tale (2014) – Young Woman

A burglar falls for an heiress as she dies in his arms. When he learns that he has the gift of reincarnation, he sets out to save her.

Character Bio: Lucy is credited only as young woman, so I have a feeling she barely shows up on screen. 

Fan comments: And as I have not seen this one either, I cannot say for sure how much she shows up.  But it is a pretty looking movie, so let’s have the trailer:

Last Summer (2014) – Rebecca

Having lost custody of her six year-old son, a young Japanese woman has four days to say goodbye to him on-board a yacht belonging to her western ex-husband’s wealthy family. Alone with the crew, who are under direct instruction to keep a watchful eye on her, the woman must try to forge a connection with her son before she has to part from him for many years.

Character bio: One of the yaht crew, Rebecca is the person that young Ken clings to when first interacting with his mother.  

Fan comments: The only trailers I could find of this film were in Italian, but I don’t think the film was shot in Italian. The reviews have said it is a quiet film, artistic and beautiful, with a hopeful ending.  I might track it down, because Rinko Kikuchi is the main character, Naomi, and that with Lucy in the film intrigues me.

Don’t Look Back (2014) – Nora Clark

An adult woman must face the trauma and horrors of her difficult childhood after avoiding it for years.

Character bio: Nora is a writer of young adult books, struggling with a writer’s block and the death of her grandmother. She decides to move back to her grandmother’s house (where Nora had been raised), to deal with the estate and the other details. She opens the house to a lodger, Peyton, who develops an unhealthy attraction to Nora.  At the same time, Nora’s life continues to be bombarded by skeletons from her past. 

Fan comments: This is another one that the writing fails any and all of the talent from the cast by all accounts of the reviews. 

Constantine (2014) – Liv Aberdine

A man struggling with his faith who is haunted by the sins of his past is suddenly thrust into the role of defending humanity from the gathering forces of darkness.

Character bio: Liv winds up working with Constantine to banish a demon that is hunting her.  She also inherited a pendant from her father that allows her to see multiple planes of existence, making her more than an ordinary office worker as we first think.

Fan comments: So Constantine has been on the back burner of my shows for awhile, since I heard it was actually pretty well done, despite not being renewed. I may bump it up the list now that I know Lucy is in it. 

Home for Christmas (2014) – Alice

Beth Prince has always loved fairytales and now she feels like she’s finally on the verge of her own happily ever after; a dream job in a charming independent cinema by the seaside and a gorgeous boyfriend. There’s just one problem - no man has ever told her they love her. Desperate to hear their crucial three little words for the first time Beth takes matters into her own hands - and wishes she hasn’t.

I couldn’t find much info, though it apparently a rom com with Christmas, and is generally feel good.  Though I did find this video and thought I would share it:

 Uncanny (2015) – Joy Andrews

The world’s first “perfect” Artificial Intelligence begins to exhibit startling and unnerving emergent behavior when a reporter begins a relationship with the scientist who created it. 

Character bio: Joy is at first just curious about the actual AI project, but then develops a friendship with David, the creator of the AI, Adam.  This friendship builds to a sexual relationship, and the AI develops more and more human emotions which puts Joy in danger. 

Fan comments: I would have put this on a list of movies to see, but in the course of researching, I’ve seen all the spoilers… and well, I might still watch it. 

Preacher (2016) – Emily (10 episodes)

After a supernatural event at his church, a preacher enlists the help of a vampire to find God.

Character bio:  Emily is no-nonsense single mother of three. Emily’s a waitress, while also serving as a church organist, bookkeeper and Jesse’s loyal right hand. (bio from Preacher Wikia)

Fan comments: While the premise of the show doesn’t quite catch me (so sick of vampires, sorry), Lucy’s character seems an interesting change from some of the other roles I’ve seen her in, and from those that I had to research.  I may have to look up her episodes. 

That is it for now in Lucy’s filmography, but I am interested to see what her career will bring!
