Prologue

Damon opened the chest before him. Bonnie had been able to destroy the invisible magical bonds that were tying it together, but it'd taken all her power and right now Elena was taking her upstairs to get some sleep.

"Just open it up already." Stefan or at least the Ripper said.

Damon rolled his eyes and slowly lifted off the top of the chest. Stefan stepped forward to see what was in there and for a moment he was mesmerized. In the chest law a woman who looked like she was sleeping. Her Y/h/c hair law outspread by her head and her clothes looked like they were from the 1800. Suddenly her eyes opened and a gasp for air sounded through the abandoned house.

________________________________________

You were awake. For the first time in so long you were awake. You could feel your heart beating eyes slowly opening and you could breath. Looking up, you saw two men, correction two vampires, presumably brother based on their looks. Suddenly you felt a hunger snap in your chest.

"Blood-I need blood..." You scream whispered. The taller of the men, threw you a blood bag, and as you slowly sat up to drink it you felt their eyes on you.

"Who are you?" The one with dark brown hair asked. Looking at you curiously.

"I'm Y/N Mikaelson, where the fuck did you guys find me?" You questioned them.

"Mikaelson? Are you Klaus and Rebekah's sister?" The taller one demanded you.

"Sister? God no, I'm Klaus's wife. You know where he is?" You asked them.

"We can't take you to him right now, we need more information, and we're not scared to force answers out of you." The brown hair threatened you. As you let out a low laughter and stood up, telling them.

"I am Y/N Mikaelson, first of my name. The only witch, vampire hybrid there is. I'm thousands of years old. How the fuck do you intend to 'force answers' out of me? You mimicked the brown haired voice by the threatening part.

"Look I'm sorry for my brother. I'm Damon this is Stefan. We just really need your help. The Mikaelsons are hosting a ball tonight. And our... Friend is going, no matter what we say. She wants to get more information about them, please just go and keep them distracted so that nothing happens to her and we'll leave you alone." The taller one, no Damon begged.

"Sure." You sighted.

_________________________________________

The dress: https://pin.it/73RwkmiWq

You were getting ready at the Salvatores hiding so that their 'Friend' wouldn't know about the plan. You'd chosen a long red beautiful dress with a slit that went far up your leg. As you put on your sleeves you heard a knock on your door and Damon stepped Inside.

"Well you look good, almost as good as me." He cockily told you as you rolled your eyes.

"You ready to go?" He asked. You nodded as an answer, applying the last of your makeup. He led you up to a fancy carriage and helped you up. The ride to the mansion was tense. Damon had filled you up on everything that had happened to them in the last year and no you weren't ashamed of your husband. He did what he did.

"Well look at that were fashionably late. Why don't I go inside and you'll come in in 5 minutes?" Damon wondered.

"Yeah sure." You answered him.

After waiting for a couple minutes you stepped out of the carriage and walked towards the mansion, your body stiff with nervousness. As the doors opened you felt everyone's eyes on you. You knew this was a vampire ball and most old and intelligent vampires knew who you were. A myth, a legend.

Everything seemed to stop when you locked eyes with Klaus who had seemed to be making a toast. A loud crash sounded through the ballroom when he dropped the glass in his hand and ran to you. Wrapping his arm about you, your lips met. It was a soft kiss, but with something in the background, a promise for more. When the two of you pulled apart, you saw Rebekah, your best friend walk towards you. You quickly pulled her in, even though Klaus wouldn't let go of your hand.

________________________________________

When the ball was finally over Klaus dragged you with him to his painting studio. Everywhere there were paintings of you and you felt your eyes tear up.

"Hey, don't cry love." He told you, wiping the tears of your face.

"We have so much to talk about." You sobbed.

"I think that can wait, love" he said pushing you against the wall and pressing his lips against yours.

TVD was so fun bc they would be completely unable to deduce simple things but they’d make a huge leap in logic just fine.

They didn’t connect the dots that Elijah, an original, was related to Klaus, another original.

However, when Jenna hears Alaric’s wife’s name is Isabelle and she’s from around the area she assumes that that woman is Elena’s birth mom. No one irl would come to that conclusion. If her name was Astrid Popsicle I’d get it but Isabelle/ Isobel is relatively common.

You know. Astrid is my character, from my book, and you have her bio- and a single chapters worth of content for her. (sorry lmfao) And yet you have taken her to tumblr and kept her so in character in so many different situations.

You know how i am with canon characters and characterization, im kinda an ELITIST dick lmfao…. but to be honest? Seeing someone else write MY character from MY canon? Is surreal. And honestly? Im so proud.

Somewhere down the line there will be more Astrid blogs that pop up im sure, you know when im a famous writer and all 💅 xoxox

But you will always have the first, the original, and the author approved Astrid blog. Its amazing seeing her come to life under your care, and I wouldnt have it any other way. Thank you for taking one of my favourite characters and sharing her with the world.

*Happy Alpha noises*

Yeah thanks for that single chapter..

I am sure she will be a fan favourite, except at that point she'll no longer be an OC, but a fully fledged character.

But getting to write her is a pleasure, Astrid is a beautiful character, she's very much still undiscovered, but she's getting herself out there.

I'm very pleased to have shares in this world, through Astrid, Celeste and Kah'lee. I hope to do them all the justice that they deserve, keep to the canon even in her AU TVD verse.

Thank you for the approval, it means a lot to know im doing well, especially since you are extremely nitpicky with your character portrayals, i really must be doing a good job.

Is Celeste a Rebekah Doppleganger?

Hii anon,

No Celeste ( @la-main-de-la-reine ) is not a doppelgänger for Rebekah, she is her complete own separate entity for a book that is currently being written by @malka-lisitsa , and is nothing to do with TVD it self.

The face claims are for the writers purposes only, Novi and I write these characters on tumblr just for fun, other characters included in their world on tumblr so far are @voros-kiralyno as Nova, and @astrid-summer-child as Astrid. If you’d like to know more about each character the world info is in all of their pinned posts as well as their own about information.

That being said we are still open to other RP partners outside of their world, so if you’re interested in them as a character feel free to message us :)

Ramble of recent batshit theories:

*that I haven’t had a chance to be nuts on here about yet, while listening to Queen of Shadows (& trying to go about life’s chaos in the midst of NEEDING to read) CAUSE WHAT HAPPENS😩😭😅😂🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️ I need to know, yet I never want it to end*

— P.S. NO spoliees plz🙃🫶thx😉😘

Elide Lochan *I need to go check* but ISN’T THAT the same last name as Rowan’s old Maeve buddy/enemy??? P.S. (cause I haven’t had a chance) ELIDEEEEEEEEEEEE LIVESSSSSS

I cannot type the name “Lorcan Salvaterre” without thinking Lochan like above🤦‍♀️ & Salvatorre (cause middle school TVD me lives on❣️)🤣 — I need to meet him & fix this… cause also Lucien Vanserra name vibes???

Is Rowan related to Manon… they both are in the vision right? & the whole “demon” nickname cause 100s of years of chaos, + silvery white moon hair? 🤷‍♀️

SUPER FAST HIGHLIGHTS (& then I must go be “a human”)

The book is queen of shadows, well we’ve got Aelin, and whatever this darkness slowly covering Rifthold is… seems promising (& ominous) don’t love the red on the cover😅 umm… Dorian??? Hon, babe, CAN SOMEONE PLEASE GET HIM OUT ALREADY?!

What do Wyrdstone collars look like? WHY DO WE NOT HAVE A FILM ADAPTATION😭

Help I just love Abraxos🥹 bbbbbbbbbb

Why does Asterin remind me of Astrid from how to train your dragon😂

After reading TAB this is just “I understood that reference” city

SO YOUR TELLING ME WESLEY WAS GOING TO ENDOVIER

“The swaggering Assassin incarnate”

SHE MISSES ROWAN, I MISS ROWAN, WHERE IS ROWAN😭 (oh how the tables have turned)

I just need Aelin & Aedion’s reunion BE THE BALM TO MY SOUL SARAH

Yes please ladies team up like Genya & Alina and let’s switch up Riftholds pecking order starting with the truly Dolores Umbridge level of revolting *ugh* Arobynn

Did Aelin just pull a black swan reference?

Loving the Black Widow vibes

Lysandra just casually tending to Aedion sculpted chest?😂 … I’m sensing a ship? + it would make sense to add drama since Aelin would hate it (or maybe hopefully not… idk)?

LYSANDRA KNEW (help wait I kinda totally love her)

Trigger Warning : R*pe

Why do white male writers think that “rape” is an important part of female character development? While it literally does absolutely nothing and just there for shock value.

Not just white male writers but in some cases female writers aswell. I want to unpack some of my favourite female characters and how getting sexually assaulted did absolutely nothing for their character development.

Daenerys Targaryen (GoT)

Dany was sold off to Khal Drogo by her brother Viserys, please keep in mind that I am focusing on Dany from the show and not the book cause I have never read George RR Martins work.

Dany after getting married was continuously raped by her husband until she finally took charge and decided that she would assume control in bed. What twisted male fantasy is this? That a woman was continually raped and one day she not only accepted it but decided that she would please her rapist?

This plot line did absolutely nothing for Danys character line, if the sexual assault storyline did not exist Dany would still have gone and earned the titles she had and she still would’ve become Khal of Khals. This plot line did nothing but feed the male audience who further sexualised Dany or as they call her “Kaleesi” for no reason at all. (I’ve only seen men call Daenerys “Kaleesi”)

Caroline Forbes (TVD)

Imagine being written by a female writer and still be subjected to sexual assault and then have your abuser get the mOst ePic reDemPtiOn aRcs of all time.

Alot of people in the fandom refuse to talk about this plot line because Damon Salvatore is the stud of TVDU. But in season 1 Damon compelled Caroline and used her as his food source and continuously subjected her to sexual violence. Damon did not face any consequences to his actions at all, he was awarded with an epic storyline, a redemption arc, and he also got the main female protagonist. Furthermore, the topic never came up in the TVDU and no one even knew about it, and the show ended with Caroline and Damon being faMiLy.

The writers subjected Caroline Forbes to an extremely traumatic experience that she magically recovered from for the sake of OT3, the sexual violence plot line was not only forgotten but it did absolutely nothing for this female characters storyline. Her abuser faced no consequences and the show moved on and never acknowledged the trauma she went through.

Kisa/ Santanico Pandemonium (FDTD)

Kisa is probably one of the best female characters to ever exist out there. Her story line was exceptionally well written.

She was subjected to life of slavery and she wanted to take revenge. But later on we learn that she was also raped by her captor, which I think we could’ve done without. It did absolutely nothing for her storyline and just portrayed her as a victim to a man’s aggression. Before this revelation Kisa was on a path to vengeance and after that she was still on the very same path. Then what was the point of this new plot line or revelation?

Astrid (Vikings)

Astrid was kidnapped by King Herald, and it was in his kindgom that she was raped and subjected to sexual violence by various men. Astrid’s storyline was already a strong one as Lagertha’s lover and it absolutely did not need the whole King Herald trope.

If the writers wanted to kill her, she could have died at Lagertha’s side during a battle but the writers chose to subject her to a traumatic storyline for no reason at all.

Cersei Lannister (GoT)

Cersei was the epic female villain the show deserved. She didn’t have to be dead white man turned into an ice zombie to be terrifying. But the writers way of “humanising” her was subjecting her to sexual violence. Cersei was raped by Jamie Lannister on her sons funeral and it did absolutely nothing for her storyline.

The trope was extremely sexist, as if the writers were trying to convey a message about gender hierarchy on the show. That no matter how powerful she is, she is “vulnerable” to a man, to a knight.

Ingrid (Vikings)

Ingrid was Bjorn’s second wife who was raped by King Herald while she was staying in his Kingdom with her husband. The entire rape storyline did nothing for the shows plot line and was just in bad taste, and the worst part was King Herald did not face any consequences to his actions and died a hErO while fighting the Christians.

Sansa Stark (GoT)

Sansa was the epitome of the “male fantasy” a timid, petite white girl who needed to be saved. And the only way they could change that and make her strong for the viewers was through years and years to sexual humiliation and abuse.

Jeoffery humiliated Sansa again and again, in the court but that was not her breaking point. It was when she was sold off to Ramsay who then raped that she was considered strong. But to be honest for me Sansa was strong from the start and rape storyline was nothing but way of promoting sexual violence on the silver screen to attract a larger body of male viewers.

Brooke Davis (OTH)

Brooke is one of the most iconic and forever green characters on screen. But in during season 5 or 6 an intruder entered her house and assaulted her (I am not sure if sexual violence was involved or not). That was a plot line that the writers dragged on for a long period of time and for a while it did add to her story line but then it was completely forgotten.

That plot did nothing for Brooke’s character growth as she a was strong independent women before it happened and she was the same person after the events occurred.

(I am sorry for this post being too white, I couldn’t think of more PoC characters for this post. If you can remember any please feel free to add them. As, women of color are shown in more violent sexual situations than white women on screen.)

The point of this post is that sexual violence never adds anything to the female characters growth. Then why is it portrayed on screen? For shock value?
