Attack for @sillyroundkatie ! Armance hanging out with my oc, Brandyn, sharing the common interest of "altering one's DNA to the point of not really being human anymore"

Armance goes by any pronouns/she and her while Brandyn goes by he/him pronouns so please be respectful!

Dilê dayikan şa bî

Their Imperial Majesties, Emperor Napoleon V and Empress Charlotte of the French, attended the wedding of Madame Hortense and the Duke Oliver of Rothsey, in Scotland. The other members of the imperial family were also present.

Wedding of HRH Prince Oliver, Duke of Rothsey & HIH Madame Hortense of Francesim Part 2

Stéphane: Meanwhile, we are seeing King Alexander and Queen Marie-Christine depart for the cathedral from Holyrood Palace. I’m seeing a trend of red today in ensembles! The King and Queen of the Scots are also a union of nations, with Queen Marie-Christine being the younger sister of Emperor David of Pierreland! Travis: So, the two emperors of Europesim are about to be related? Stéphane: That seems to be the case! It is quite beautiful given the levels of mentorship that are between the emperors.

Stéphane: Speaking of Emperor David, his family is now arriving at the cathedral. Empress Katalina is breath taking as always. This is also the first time we are seeing the green sashes and medals, Travis, what are they? Travis: That is the Order of the Thistle, the Kingdom of Scots’s highest order of chivalry. Emperor Napoleon V, Madame Hortense, and Madame Mere were inducted into the order prior to today with Emperor Napoleon IV being posthumously inducted, reportedly at the urging of Prince Oliver. Which is a first in Scots history and to a very deserving man. Stéphane: And Empress Charlotte? Travis: We have been told she will be inducted at a later date, just as Empress Katalina was when she joined the order on King Alexander and Queen Marie Christine’s 20th wedding anniversary and the imperial children of Pierreland who were inducted when they all turned 15. Stéphane: It is an interesting tradition! What are its roots? Travis: The roots stem to the early 1300s, when King David I of Scots created the Order and said that all members of the royal family are granted status in the Order along with “those who share their blood.” Over time, spouses like Empress Katalina and in the future, Empress Charlotte, were granted status in the Order, out of respect for the hopefully strongly forged union.

Stéphane: Absolutely fascinating! Loyalty to family seems to be a cornerstone to the Scottish Royal mythology. Meanwhile we see that Her Royal Highness Princess Magdalena of Lunaria has arrived with the Pierreland family, she looks beautiful in light blue while the Crown Prince wears the summer uniform of the Pierreland Imperial Military Academy, where he studies. The uniform has a white uniform jacket and dare I say, he is walking the line between acceptable and faux paus on this occasion. Travis: A bold choice that is for sure! But I am sure that the uniform was cleared with his aunt and uncle. He’s still a student learning uniform protocol and I think the couple understand that. I do say it does look excellent. It is rarely seen outside of Pierreland. Stéphane: Absolutely, protocol must be followed.  And I do believe that the public can forgive him for wearing white if the bride can! Meanwhile, his siblings are keeping it safe with our first kilt spotting on Prince Henri!

Travis: He has gone for a very traditional look with the kilt providing the majority of the color and a tweed jacket and waist coat. Meanwhile his twin sister Princess Maria Aisha looks beautiful in a light peach color, and I do believe she does have some hair jewelry that is from the Pierreland territory of Oderia which is a lovely nod to Pierreland’s vastness but also her maternal culture.

Stéphane: And we are seeing the first live look at the Emperor and Madame Hortense preparing to leave Aubigny House in one of the state coaches. And she is looking ethereal today in a dress designed by Lady Evie McPherson, a friend of both Prince Oliver and Madame Hortense. Travis: It is the first time we’re seeing one of Lady Evie’s creations on someone else and it is a big moment to have your design debut! From what we can see, I’m loving the sliver accents and the amazing lace work that came from the Royal School of Needlework. Stéphane:  It is also quite amazing that the place where Madame spent her last night as a single woman was named after Aubigny, the single town that the old kings of Francesim gave to a Scottish soldier as thanks for help in war. The historic nature of this alliance is not lost on anyone today!

Travis: And we are seeing the first images of Prince Oliver and his best man, Captain Callen MacDonald. The two servicemen are passing the Cenotaph, the kingdom’s war memorial. Stéphane: Why would Prince Oliver choose a non-family member to be his witness today? Travis: Excellent question! Captain MacDonald or Lord Callen has been Prince Oliver’s best friend since they were wee tots. Granted, Prince Oliver could’ve picked his cousin Prince Magnus but I have it on good authority that Prince Magnus stepped back saying that the best friends should do this together.

Stéphane: Speaking of Prince Magnus, he is now arriving. He is escorting his grandmother Dowager Queen Victoria or the Queen Mum and wearing the uniform of the Blues and Royals which Prince Oliver was seen in at the coronation! Travis: Yes! The cousins share this unit association and it is quite a dashing uniform. With the Queen Mum and Prince Magnus is Prince Dominic who is also sporting a kilt today! Stéphane: So two kilts? Travis [laughing]: Yes! Prince Dominic is the middle child of the Duke and Duchess of Argyll who are now also arriving!

Stéphane: I find it bold that the Duchess has gone for a bare face today. Meanwhile, HRH the Duke of Argyll is looking distinguished sporting quite a lovely beard. Travis: I gotta say, the Stuarts do very well with their beard growth!

Travis: Speaking of Uncles, HIH Imperial Prince Henri of the French and his family have arrived to the cathedral with two of his four daughters, meaning that two are most likely in the bridal party. Stéphane: The two daughters, TIH Princesses Amelie and Armance, were definitely on my short list for the bridal party so it is not a surprise. Unlike Princess Olympia’s interesting choice of dress color.

Stéphane: More key players are making their arrival such as Pope Gregorious XIX who will be the main celebrant today. The Holy Father will be joined by several of the Scots esteemed clergymen such as Cardinal McGregor who is the Archbishop of Edinburgh, Cardinal MacMillian the Archbishop of the Isle of Sky, Bishop McClellan of Rothsey, and Father Andrew Carter who is today’s homilist. Travis: It is quite a swath of clergy doing a once in a life time thing, serving with the Pope. Father Carter especially, quite an honor for this humble paratrooper chaplain.

Travis: And we are seeing that Madame Hortense and her brother, Emperor Napoleon V, have now reached the Royal Mile with their French guard of honor. Stéphane, who are this guard and why is it significant they’re here? Stéphane: Excellent Question! It is the elite cavalry corps known as the Cent-Gardes, re-established by Napoleon IV as his personal protectors.The French guard has it's historical roots in the Scottish-French relationship that goes back to the 13th century with the Auld Alliance. They are Scots cavalry men who are at least 5'11" who are actively serving with the Scots military.

Travis: They are very much like the Pope's Swiss Guard but for the French no? Stéphane [laughing]: That is one way to put it! it is very fitting that they are escorting Madame Hortense on her way to marry into the Scots Royal family, to her own Scottish Cavalryman. Travis: It is very poetic, very romantic and seemingly very on brand for this couple! We are getting a closer look into the carriage at the siblings, an emotional day for them I am sure. But back here at the cathedral, I am hearing the screams of the crowd through the windows. That can only mean one thing.

Stéphane: The arrival of HRH Prince Oliver of the Scots, Duke of Rothsey and his best man, Lord Callen MacDonald. I must say, the screaming is quite intense. Travis: It must be from all the hearts of young women in Scots breaking as Prince Oliver is soon to be officially, religiously, and legally off the market. Stéphane: As long as those are the only hearts he breaks young Travis [Travis laughs] he is looking very regal in his kilt!

Stéphane: Inside the cathedral we see that Empress Charlotte and Madame Mere are greeting the Scottish cardinals. This is very different than the wedding of Emperor Napoleon V, where there was a legal ceremony and then the nuptial mass. Travis: Indeed it is Stéphane. In Scots for those who are religious, the religious component takes precedence over the legal portion where in Francesim there seems to be a preference to the legal portion. I am loving the shades of blue on the Empress and Madame Mere.

Travis: Further up in the nave, we see that Prince Oliver is making his rounds with the royal guests, currently in a deep conversation with his aunt and uncle. Stéphane: perhaps some advice is being shared? Travis: Maybe or a funny story to relax the groom.

Stéphane: And outside, His Majesty King Alexander III and queen Marie Christine have arrived at Saint Andrews to fanfare. His Majesty is looking very sleek in his black uniform of the Royal Aberdeen Regiment while the Queen is looking beautiful in red.Travis: They both look every inch the proud parents.

Stéphane: And now the arrival of the bridal party! The group consists of HIH Princess Armance of Francesim and Lady Mackenzie MacDonald as bridesmaids; HRH Prince Andrew of Argyll, HRH Prince Lenerd of the Ionian Union, and Mr. Charles Everett, son of the King’s private secretary, as pages; and HIH Princess Amelie of Francesim, the maid of honor. Travis:  An illustrious crew filled with people who are dear to the couple. Stephane: And the uniforms of the pages? Travis: That is the regency era uniform of the King’s Highlanders uniform. And I believe we are zooming into get a better shot

Stéphane: On Prince Lenerd no less! The cutest model for the uniform. Travis: It has only increased his cute factor! Anyway, the uniform shares some pieces with its modern counterpart, such as the dark green jacket, the tartan pattern, which is known as the Black Watch, an older name for the King’s Highlanders. Their tartan has become the standard tartan for the Scots military due to its history. And Stéphane, I do believe I am hearing more cheers

don’t worry!! i’m one of those weird pilot chicks who gets off on unloading railgun shots from beyond the horizon with perfect coordinate synchronization.

when I make a hit the nice lady floating in the Armance Class Heavy Cruiser above tells me “good hit” and I leak a little at that too.

List 5 facts about a favorite sim of yours, and send this to 10 simblrs whose sims you adore ♥♥♥

RAHHHHH !!! I'm answering this one about our son.

His Royal Highness Prince Lenerd Yannik Joachim Charles of the Ionian Union is his offical name and title. But, the boy has a ton of names. We call him Lenny behind closed doors, aka when talking. In public and on paper, he is Prince Lenerd Yannik. When he begins to talk, he will be Yannik in the subtitles, it's the name his mother and step-father address him as. His nicknames are Yann and Yanni, which are pronounced like John and Johnnie with a Yah instead of Joh. Non-Ionians tend to call him Lenerd or some variation of it.

He turned one in June!!! I just forgot to celebrate it.... I was really excited for it too ;-; maybe his party is just delayed until after the wedding?

Lenny has never met his father. When in Pierreland, he had a very brief greeting with Kat on the train. I imagine this hurt her heart, but Eloise does not want a personal connection between the Valois and her child unless they are avalible as a permanent ficture in his life. Unless that is the case, there is no room for anything more than being kind. He did not meet David.

This baby loves dinosaurs. He loves vehicles and makeup too, but right now he wants to know the dino facts. His favorite dino is a Brachiosaurus, he even has a little stuffed animal of one.

Unlike his mother, Lenny seems to make friends easily!! I imagine that will change as he grows, but he made friends with Emmett from @trentonsimblr while on tour, and when in Francesim or with Philippe's family, he seems to get alond with Armance. I've never talked about it with @empiredesimparte, but I do think they could be considered little buddies.

last "song": a mendelssohn piano concerto, on classic fm... played it with a university orchestra a bit back and the second movement was not fun because the flutes had two notes after like 200 slow bars of rest

last film: absolutely no clue but did anyone else know there was going to be a paddington 3 because that will be my next film i think

currently watching: nothing, i finally finished the latest doctor who series... was an. interesting. series. i miss jodie whittaker

currently reading: armance, by stendhal, which has begun by introducing the most early 19th century protagonist you've ever met; and tintenherz by cornelia funke, which is taking a while to get my interest but that may be because my german reading is very slow

currently craving: a reply, positive or negative, from a job i applied to... does that count because it is driving me absolutely insane

last thing i searched for writing purposes: was knee-deep the other day in the 19th century history of my old secondary school... wanted to know what it was like to be in a girls' school back then. the book i have is from 1930 so the authors could just ask living alumnae which feels insane

The imperial family of Francesim (Collateral : Henri branch)

Princess Napoléon

Her Imperial Highness, Princess Napoléon Olympia of the French

Olympia Sophia Simparte, born von Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel.

Wife of the imperial prince Henri of the French. It was a marriage arranged by Emperor Napoléon IV, but the couple are now in love. Olympia is very attached to the rules of the empire and its protocol, unlike her husband. She tries to teach this to all her children, especially as Henri is the new heir to the throne. Although not all her daughters are very receptive to this, her son Prince Philippe joins her in this opinion. Olympia has also taught her entire family the German language.

Her Imperial Highness, Princess Amélie of Francesim

Amélie Simparte

Amélie is the eldest of the sisters and therefore their main reference. Like her father, she has a free and confident character. She likes to meet people, try new things and fears routine. Amélie isn't very attached to family speeches, and is quite introverted when she is surrounded by her family. This worries her parents a lot.

Princess of Francesim

Her Imperial Highness, Princess Sophie of Francesim

Sophie Simparte

Sophie loves everything that gives her the life of a princess and consumes it without moderation: her life is endless fun with excess. Still young, she is rather controlled by her mother, with whom she often argues. As a result, Sophie already worries the imperial family about the future, where she will be freer as an adult.

Her Imperial Highness, Princess Marianne of Francesim

Marianne Simparte

Marianne is the wisest of Philippe's sisters, although she is slightly mischievous. Like him, she loves family time and makes sure everything runs smoothly. She is the best friend of Princess Caroline Murat, Joachim Murat's sister. Marianne hopes to study hard and serve the Emperor in the future.

Her Imperial Highness, Princess Armance of Francesim

Armance Simparte

Armance is the youngest of the siblings. She appreciates being looked after by her parents and her elders. She is closer to Sophie, who amuses her a lot, to the great displeasure of her mother Olympia. She likes to have fun and can't stand arguments. Armance is popular in her public school and receives constant praise from her teachers and classmates.
