To Build-Up One Self Part 1

Featuring Sibylle of Cleves by @blackdiamondwrites127

Mentioned Kath Tudor by @ellielovesdrawing

T/W: Nudity and Past Trauma

On a less busy street in London, Sibylle was standing in front of medium size building that was a gym. Sibylle was wear her gym clothes and carrying a tote bag with her gym gear inside while waiting for certain person to show up. She was surprised when the person took her on her offer and ask her if she can help them. Sibylle was touched when she was asked and took it upon herself to find a place where they can do it. She asked them, if they wanted to do at hers and Kath place, since they have the room and equipment for it, but they declined by saying they didn't want to be a bother to them and felt like they were using them if they did that. Sibylle then decided to take them here since she already familiar with the place and know they do offer private rooms to do some training. She send the person the information they needed and decided Sunday was be a good time to do it. She only had to wait a few more minutes when Ann showed up. Ann had a strap across her chest carrying a medium sized gym bag with her new gym gear, towels, water container, bandages, small snack, and first aid kit. Ann did some research beforehand and bought what she though she needed beside what Sibylle told her. Sibylle smile a little when she saw Ann being little over prepare, but she knows Ann just want to be ready, in case anything happens. Ann walk to Sibylle and said " Sorry I'm a little late. There was a delay on the tube and got here as fast as I can. Hope I didn't make you wait too long." Sibylle shook her head and reply " It's okay and it was only a few minutes. Are you ready to go in?" Ann nod and they both head inside the building.

Once inside the building, they can see a lot of gym equipments behind the front desk that cover most of the building and hallway that leads into different rooms and a flight of stairs that leads to bottom level. Ann was kind of amazed as she look around and they head to the desk, where a clerk was standing. Sibylle spoke to the clerk " Hi, I made an appointment with one of your private room. It's under Von Cleves." The clerk check on the computer, found the appointment slot, went below the desk, pull out a pair of keys, stand up, and hand it to Sibylle. He told her " Your room is in the last door on the left. Make sure you follow the rules and have good time with your session." They both nod and head to hallway with rooms. As they were walking, Ann felt a little nervous because didn't know what to expect. Even though Sibylle is here with her, this was her first time coming to a place like this, so she hope this will help her with rebuilding her confidence in herself. Sibylle soon stop next to a room where two path divide and told Ann " You can change in there. I'll wait for you out here." Ann nod and went down the hall on her right to the changing room. When inside, she saw lockers to put people personal stuff in, benches to sit on, changing booths, and shower area. Ann hopes she doesn't need to use that area at all and head to one of the booth to change. She soon came out of the booth with her gym clothes, which did a good job covering her, grabbed her bag, and head outside to meet up with Sibylle. They went back walking to their private room and stopped when they reach it. Sibylle put in the key into the knob, turn it, and push on it to let them inside the room.

The room itself was nice. They have dumbbells, punching bag, mats to do either yoga or practice fighting techniques, pull up bars, treadmills, bench press, and leg press. Sibylle place her bag on a nearby bench and went to the mat. Ann soon copy what Sibylle did and head to where she was. Sibylle faced Ann and told her " We're going to do a few warm up before starting. It will help us from hurting ourselves during our lessons and get our body ready once we do. Let's start with a bit of squats." She then walk to Ann, stand next to her, and begin showing Ann how to do them. Ann watched her as she did them, took notes in her head, and start doing it. Sibylle was going to be easy with Ann, since she didn't want her to push her too hard due to her being a beginner. After doing a set, Sibylle then told Ann they're going to do some push up, which they both got themselves ready to do. They both did some before getting back on their feet and began stretching their arms to move them in circles. When their warm up was done, Sibylle walk to where the dumbbells were and hinted Ann to come here. Ann soon followed, which Sibylle asked her " I'm going to ask you a question. It's okay, if you don't know the answers to it. I just need to know where to begin." Ann nod and Sibylle started her question " Do you know how much you can pick up?" Ann thought about the question and answer " Well, I know I have some trouble lifting a desktop computer box, but that due to the tower. I can lift that on my own with both hands, but I don't normally deal with them in a daily basis. I usually deal with lighter electronics items." Sibylle took in Ann answer and thought about it. With her response, Sibylle knew that Ann does have some muscle thank to her job and remembered the punch she got when Ann spend the night, so she grab ten pound dumbbell from the rack, and hand it to Ann, which she took. Sibylle explained " I think this would be a good fit for you base from your answer and what I experiences. We're going to build up and strengthen your muscles you already have. Once we are done here, I'm going to show some self-defense techniques to help you with your goal." Ann listen to what Sibylle say and got herself ready for this. Sibylle smile a little, picked up a twenty pound dumbbell, and begin working out.

While working out, Sibylle decide to do couple of bench press and have Ann do some too. She let Ann go first and instruct her on what to do. Sibylle learn that Ann was able to lift 70lb, which was kind of impressing for someone who hasn't workout before. They soon switch places and Ann start to spot for Sibylle while she lift 105lb. Once they got done, Sibylle guild Ann to the mats and begin explaining " Okay Ann, I'm going to demonstrate a technique. I want you to watch and copy what I did. While you doing it, I will watch and see if there any adjustment that need to be made." Ann nod and Sibylle got herself ready. She raise right arm as she moved her right side to flex your wrist, used the heel of her palm to jab upward to hit nostrils of a person, pulling her arm back quickly, used her other hand moving her left side to thrust a head of a person, and pull herself back. Sibylle gesture to Ann and she acknowledged her by getting into position, then did exactly what Sibylle did. Sibylle watch Ann as she did it and told Ann to do it again. Ann did what Sibylle said and did the technique again. As Ann was doing it, Sibylle moved Ann's left arm slightly and fix her posture a bit, so she isn't twisting too hard as she moving. When Ann done it correctly few times, Sibylle instruction Ann to stop and walk to Ann. She went into detail that this can also work on the nose, throat, and chin. Sibylle then raised her arm, bend it, and point at her elbow. She told Ann " Another technique is that you can use your elbow and hit someone on the neck, jawline, chin, or neck. This requires you to be steady and have a strong core and legs, since this will uses your weight to shift forward. This time I'm going to show you how it's done with the punching bag, so you can understand where to hit. When I'm finish displaying, you do the same thing. Okay " Ann took everything in and nod for agreement. Sibylle walk to the bag, took a step back, got in position, and begin. She shifted her right side of her body moving her elbow as she hit someone jawline and moving back. Ann could see what Sibylle was talking about as she saw this. When Sibylle was done, Ann got herself ready and begin doing it. Sibylle help Ann central herself as she does and made sure her footing was in correctly, so she doesn't hurt herself. When Sibylle sees that Ann got it, they go over the two techniques to make sure that Ann understand them and did some practice with them. When they got done, Sibylle went to bench where her bag was, pull out a water container and towel, sat down next to it, and wrap the towel around her neck as she start drink water inside the container. Ann follow after and sat down next to Sibylle all worn out. Sibylle already knew that Ann would be more exhausted than her. Ann got her towel and wipe the sweat from her head, then took a big gulp of water. Sibylle tells her " Don't worry, it gets more easier as we continue this. You don't have to push yourself too hard everytime." Ann put down her water container and slowly nodded. Sibylle smile a little and enjoy the peace they have. It's not too hard for Sibylle to know what Ann real goal was and was kind of glad that Ann is doing something about it. She know this isn't easy to do and hope Ann begin to overcome this obstacle.

After resting a bit, Sibylle got up, put her container away, put in her bag, and said " Our session here is almost over, let's clean up and then head to the changing room, so we change out of these clothes." Ann got up little slowly, put her things away, and nod. They clean the equipments they use and any mess they made, grab their bag, and left the room as Sibylle lock it. They head the women changing room and place their bag on the bench next to the locker. Sibylle opened her bag, pulled out a bigger towel and a bottle of shampoo and conditioner. Sibylle looked at Ann and told her " Do you mind if I take a shower here? I like to feel clean after I work out." Ann shook her head and said " I have no problem with that. I can watch the bags as you do that." Sibylle then ask " Do you want to wash up too?" This caught Ann off guard and didn't know what to say. She didn't expect to shower here and expose her body. She wasn't ready for Sibylle or anyone to see them. Her markings of her past. Sibylle quickly notice Ann start to get nervous and told her " It's optional if you want to shower here or not. Some people don't like to for reasons and some people do. It depends on people preferences." Ann start calm down after hearing this and told Sibylle calmly " I think I'll stay here to watch over our stuff and wash up when I get home. Thanks for asking." Sibylle understood and went into one of changing booth to undress while Ann stay where she was. Sibylle soon came out of the booth revealing all of scars she has on her body, head to the showering area, turn on one of the shower head, and begin washing. Ann look at Sibylle while she was showering and look down as she took a deep breath. Ann admire that Sibylle had no problem displaying her past history and didn't care what other people think about them. She was hoping that she would be confident enough to do that some day where she doesn't have to worry about people staring at her and judge her for them. Ann was also surprised on how tone Sibylle's body still was even after her gang years, but remembered that she had to be strong thanks to what kind of life she had. Sibylle got finish showering, turn the water off, wrap her herself in a towel, head to where Ann was to get the extra clothes she had in her bag, grab them, and head back to booth to change. Sibylle came out with new clothes and her gym clothes, walk to Ann, grab her bag as she put her dirty clothes in it, and told her " Ready to go?" Ann got up, grab her bag, and nod. They walk out of changing room and head to the front desk. Sibylle hand the keys over to the clerk and clerk tell them thank you and hope to see them again.

As they were about to heading out, they heard a voice behind them " Schwester" This cause both of them to stop and Sibylle to turn her head to see Anna. Sibylle walk to Anna and said " Hey Anna, what brings you here?" Anna replied " Just going to work out on my day off." Sibylle looked confused and said " Isn't your day off on Wednesday?" Anna answered " Ja, but the stage director decide to give everyone the day off today to show appreciation for the hardwork we did last week." Sibylle did remember a memo about that, but didn't go into it, since she normally off today. As Sibylle and Anna were talking, Ann stood where she was all tense up and didn't know what to do. She didn't think she would encounter Anna and knew she wasn't ready for this. She already had situations running in her head like if she should run, will Anna recognize her and tell the others that she back, would she be angry or hate her for what happen in the past, and would she forgive her. Anna notice Ann behind Sibylle and ask her " Who's your friend?" Ann got more tense when she heard Anna and her nerves begin to take over of the fact that Anna may walk over to her. Sibylle almost forgot that Ann was with her and knew she need to get her out of her. Sibylle explained " She someone I met and help out, since this was her first time here. She kind of shy, so doesn't talk much and get nervous easily. I was about help her walk out to make her feels a little safer" Anna grin and said " That's nice for you to do, große schwester. I leave you guys to it. Nice to meet you." Anna wave to Ann before saying her goodbye to Sibylle and head to the gym floor walking pass them. Sibylle walk back to Ann, saw her being all frozen, and guide her out of the building.

When they were outside, Sibylle notice that Ann still hesitant and was about to ask if she was okay, but Ann begin to move away as she spoke " I should known this was bad idea." She stopped after taking a few steps, tighten the strap of her bag, and said to Sibylle " I don't think we will be able doing this again. Thanks for everything, Siby." Ann begin walking away and start heading home. Sibylle went after Ann knowing this wasn't good sign and try to stop her. She mange to grab one of her wrist and said " Ann, please..." But Ann interrupted her " You should of told me that Anna goes to that gym too." Ann's hand begin to shake little, turn to look at Sibylle removing Sibylle's hand off her, and continue " I already explained to you and Kath about my situation with the queens and how I'm not ready to see them. Why did you think it was wise to go to the same place your sister goes to? Did you think this will help me? Because it didn't. It just made me more nervous and worried if she found out who I was." Ann took a deep breath to calm her nerves as she look down to the ground and said afterward " I saw them once before when I went to see their show at the theatre." This caught Sibylle attention, since Ann haven't mentioned this at all. Ann went on " At the time, I didn't know it was them and was interested on seeing it due to my customers telling me how good it was and I wanted to know if the actresses would give the queens their justice. Even though there was a bit of inaccuracies, I did enjoy it and though about seeing it again. When the megasix was over, Cathy came up and took my phone. At first, I felt something, but I took it as static electricity, until she returned my phone back. This is when I recognized this feeling and knew it was her. I got myself out of there as fast as I can and head home. I soon learned that others were back too and part of the show when I looked into their social media account. This made me happy inside and had thoughts about see them again, but..." Sibylle knew where this going and spoke " The guilt you have for the past is stopping you from doing that." Ann nod slowly when she heard this. Sibylle look down as she take this all in and didn't know what to say. She didn't intend to hurt Ann like this. She just wanted to help Ann out and be a friend she can depend on. Sibylle looked at Ann and said " You’re right. I should of said something about that. It wasn't my intention to hurt you like that. Especially since I know of your past life history." Sibylle walk up to Ann and told her " It was my fault that I neglected the fact that she may come here today, but I'm not going to make that mistake again. I will make sure you won't see Anna or any of queens until you are ready to." Sibylle then place her hand on Ann's shoulder and said " I'm so sorry that this happened and I do respect you choice if you don't want to continue our gym training." Ann listened to Sibylle and can feel she was be genuine about her apology. The truth is that Ann wants to continue their training and believe in Sibylle's promise, but she doesn't know if it worth taking that chance and it happens again. Ann decide to take this risk and said " Next Sunday" Sibylle caught this as Ann look up and stare directly at Sibylle with determination. Sibylle nod and said " Okay then. I'll make sure to make a reservation for a private room" Sibylle was glad that Ann still trust her and wants to continue this. Ann still had some doubts, but she have this feeling that Sibylle will make good on her word. Sibylle soon let go of Ann and they said their goodbyes. Ann need to get home and get clean, so she can start doing some work. Sibylle was going to Kath's shop to see if she needs help or wait until she get done with work, so they can spend time with other. They soon part ways and get themselves ready for next week training session.

Part 2

[blackdiamondwrites127]

Maria of Jülich-Berg, Duchess of Cleves

Here's my fourth (and hopefully my last) sixtended oc.

Hope you guys like it!

Long post ahead!

Background

Maria of Jülich-Berg is the mother of Sibylle, Anna, William and Amalia. She was a german heiress born in Jülich and belonging to the noble family of Jülich-Heimbach before being married into the House of La Marck.

She was married to John III Duke of Cleves and through their union, her inherited estates merged with the Duchy of Cleves which resulted in the so called Cleves Union.

She and John had three daughters and one son and she was a traditional Catholic who gave her daughters a practical education on how to run a noble household, which was the norm for German noblewomen of the time period.

Reincarnation

Unlike my other sixtended ocs, Maria, or Mari to avoid confusion, got reincarnated in a dirty alleyway. Wearing dirty clothes and barefoot. She's a woman in her mid forties and barely knows any english at all. These factors combined, asking for help to anyone was a futile attempt and it led her to wandering the streets for days, looking for food and shelter.

One day, the hunger was too much for her and she collapsed in front of the Tudor Rose Bakery. Seeing this feeble woman collapse in front of her bakery, Kath brought her in and nursed her back to health. Feeding her, giving her clean clothes and such. She lets Mari stay in her empty flat right above the bakery (since she lives with Sibylle now) and with her limited German thanks to Sibylle, she managed to have a somewhat understandable conversation with her. Mari thanked her for helping her and offered to help around the bakery as repayment which Kath readily accepted. She taught her how to manage the till, clean the trays and count the stocks.

On the first day of the job, Mari was managing the till when Sibylle comes in for lunch with Kath as usual. She noticed Mari and got and got curious. The two were quick to strike up a conversation once they realized the other was German as well.

Then Sibylle introduced herself as 'Sibylle La Marck'.

Something clicked inside Mari's head when she heard this. She asked who Sibylle's mother was. A bit taken aback by this question, Sibylle answered truthfully:

"Meine Mutter war Maria von Jülich-Berg."

Mari looked at Sibylle in the eye. Tears forming in her own as she points at herself and said the following:

"Ich bin...Maria von Jülich-Berg."

Realization hits her that this woman working for her girlfriend is her mother. The two shared a tearful hug. Sibylle mostly lifting her mother up in her arms and holding her tightly as she sobbed happily.

Mari couldn't believe it. Her eldest daughter was here!

Her happiness tripled when Sibylle tells her that Anna, William and Amalia were all here as well. She thought she would be all alone when she was reincarnated but hearing the news that all her children were in the modern world as well gave her newfound hope.

Sibylle calls her siblings to the bakery. Telling them it was urgent and all three run in five minutes after the call. Once the oldest told them about Mari, Mari was engulfed in tight group hug by her three other children.

The La Marck family was even more complete now with the addition of their mother.

Personality

Mari is a demure, quiet woman and is quite small in stature. She's all smiles and customers of the bakery like her for her politeness. Despite this, she does not tolerate rudeness. At. All.

There was one time where a customer was being overly rude to her and mocking her thick german accent. She politely asked the customer to leave three times but when they refused and even knocked over a basket of bread rolls to the floor, she grabbed her trusty broom and chased them out if the bakery while shouting at them in German.

Another thing about Mari is that she's a total mother hen. Very supportive to not only her children but also to their significant others and friends.

Treating them like they're her own. The significant other she's really close to is Kath given that she saved her from dying of starvation, lets her live in the flat above the bakery and she's her boss.

It took her awhile to adjust properly in the modern times but with her determined nature and with her children's support, she managed to fit right in quite easily.

Will is a huge chocolate thief and everybody knows it, which is a problem for @ellielovesdrawing 's Katherine Tudor.

Hi! Sorry for the sudden ask, but what type of pastry does margaret Beaufort like?

Kath Tudor owns a bakery adjacent to the theatre and so she usually makes sweet treats for her friends and family-

She’s got a bit of a sweet tooth, so she tends to like cream filled or fruit topped stuff. She’s also partial to Welsh and Chorley cakes.

So We Picked Up A Pen And A Microphone

AO3 Link

Title Inspiration- Ex Wives from Six

so for those wondering what the countdown in my bio has been about anyways yeah uhhhhhhhh i am legally allowed to post this today since it’s my birthday and therefor i am legally obligated to self indulge, thank you for your time

tws- none that i can think of, but please tell me if there are any

Even before the show had started, back when all of them were still in rehearsals and the very few voluntary conversations any of them ever had were stilted at best or arguments just barely disguised as passionate discussions at worst, Anne was never the earliest to places. Partially due to not really wanting to wake up at Too Fucking Early O’Clock, partially because she just genuinely wasn’t the most pontual person- very rarely was she not at least a few minutes late to events.

But today was a bit of an exception. Today was the opening of their West End run, and she couldn’t help the slight skip to her step as she walked from the tube station towards the theatre, for once the first one to get going there. Not that she wasn’t familiar with the theatre or the show or any of that- but she would be lying if she said there wasn’t a reason.

During their UK tour, they had one alternate- Regina. She’d go on whenever any of the queens were ill or busy, but only one alternate for six queens was clearly too little- something Anne herself had brought up with the production team, with no action taken. Of course, as anyone with half a brain could’ve guessed, this resulted in multiple shows having to be cancelled and all of them, Regina included, being exhausted by the end of their run.

So once the West End run was announced, so were the changes to the cast- the addition of two alternates and a swing. And she was shocked when she noticed that she recognized them- from the posts Regina had made with her friends.

She’d looked into them- call it paranoia or stalking or what have you, but she’d prefer not to be around people she knew nothing about, especially not people who were going to be acting as herself when she couldn’t. She had their names- the alternates being Skye Jackson and Ally Rodriguez and the swing Gretchen Warren- and the social media that the show’s account had tagged them with.

Gretchen was the second oldest out of the four of them, just 2 years younger than Regina at 22, with dark brown wavy hair and green eyes. She didn’t seem to have much in the way of public stuff- her account had been set to private when she was tagged, and it was only after Anne had gotten permission to follow her that it was set to public. It was mainly personal, with a few pictures of relatively small local productions that never fully took off. This was understandable- she’d graduated just a year ago, and not everyone had a job offer right out of college. Now Skye and Ally were a different story.

Ally was the youngest, having turned 19 in the past November, just two months earlier, with light brown hair and some of the darkest eyes she had ever seen. A lot of the posts were personal, typical teenager stuff like photos of hang outs or posts at parties. Some were more serious- activism or mental health centered stuff that hinted more into stuff Ally seemed to keep closer to her chest. And there were also some tiny school productions of musicals, as well as covers she seemed to mostly do with her friends- some of them being her fellow alternates and swing, and the closest Skye.

Skye had her curious from the moment she’d seen the clips posted of them in rehearsal. At 19, just a few months older than Ally, and with jet black hair with teal tips and purple eyes, she couldn’t help but focus on her as she acted out what she recognized as her own song. A quick browse through her profile and she noticed the girl’s personality was an awful lot like her own- all huge grins and cocky smirks and quickly thought-up quips and arguments. Her posts, along with the videos she posted on the Youtube channel linked in her bio, were a mix of everything- personal stuff, covers, productions, announcements, and other more serious stuff that she seemed to also avoid.

She’d texted all of them as soon as she could, and although she’d gotten along with them fairly well, conversation had died fairly quickly due to the usual early-friendship awkwardness.

That hadn’t been the case for some of her other cast members, however, as she’d heard Cathy talk about Skye as if the two were friends, and Kitty seemed to have gotten along with Ally quite well. There was a part of her that couldn’t help but wonder why no one had managed to connect with Gretchen, but she figured they’d have time for that once performances started and they had more time to be around one another.

And now, she hoped she wouldn’t be stuck to the sidelines as she made her way to the theatre, hoping to be the first to meet the new cast members.

As she turned a corner, she couldn’t help the grin that formed when she saw a familiar head of golden hair a bit farther ahead on the street. “Oi, Regina!”

She gave her a wave when the girl looked up, and the latter gave the barest hint of a smile before Anne made a dash towards her. “So, how’s our superswing?” Anne’s grin only broadened at the soft chuckle Regina gave- it was clear no one could quite avoid the excitement of opening night, stoic as Regina was (or at least tried to).

“Admittedly, I’m pretty excited.” She replied, only confirming Anne’s suspicions. “Plus, I feel like the six of you will like the new girls. Though, Skye and Ally will bring more chaos into it all.”

“Hey now, Aragon and Jane live with me, right?” She replied with a smirk, earning another soft chuckle from the girl as they turned the last corner- the one that lead them into the street of the theatre.

“I believe they do, yes.” She agreed softly. “And I’ve been dealing with those two for a good decade or so now, I can handle them.”

“How bad are they?”

Regina hesitated at that question, physically stopping just a few feet away from the theatre before turning to face her with a smile and a playful light in her eyes that Anne didn’t think she’d ever seen. “Skye is you and Ally is Kath, only those two are childhood friends and Ally has much less self control than Kath has, so they’re much worse than the pair of you.”

Anne stared at her, mouth slightly agape, before chuckling with her trademark confident smirk. “Well then, guess me and Kitty will have to up our game.”

Regina gave a soft chuckle, shaking her head as she walked the last few steps to the theatre, Anne right behind her as she came inside the foyer.

Neither spent much time there- apart from a quick greeting to the ticket booth worker, they both seemed to agree to head to see the dressing rooms as quick as possible.

As soon as they were in the dressing room hall, Anne could hear soft voices from the farthest away dressing room, voices that sounded vaguely familiar even if she couldn’t pin names to them, coupled with musical theatre tunes muffled by the voices.

Before Anne herself could react, Regina chuckled softly and made a quick dash for it, opening the door. Assorted greetings sounded from it, but Anne was too deep into her own thoughts to properly process them, simply following Regina into the dressing room while registering, from the corner of her eye the names of the four girls engraved on the dressing room’s door.

The first thing that caught her eye was a book, left on the counter right of her. On its cover, Anne spotted a portrait of a familiar girl with fiery red hair and dark eyes much like her own. Before she had a chance to reply, however, a voice spoke up.

“Oh, that’s mine.” Anne looked up to meet sharp violet eyes and a wide grin, and immediately she returned it. “Anne Boleyn, right? Nice to finally meet you- in person, I mean.”

“Right back at you.” Anne returned, sitting on one of the vacant chairs before handing the book to Skye. “I see you’ve done your homework.”

That earned a laugh from the girl. “Eh, I’ve always been a Tudor nerd, to be honest-”

“Can confirm.”

Skye turned back to face who Anne was pretty sure was Ally with an amused, playfully annoyed smirk. “Thank you, Ally.” She replied with emphasis on the girl’s name, before turning back to Anne. “But uh, yeah, have been since I was a kid. Elizabeth is the one they focused more in school- well, apart from Henry, but I was never too interested in him- so that’s where I started and it just kinda grew from there.”

Anne nodded with a soft chuckle. “I see, ‘nd I’m guessing it’s safe to assume you were really excited when you got the job.”

“She called me screaming about it.” Anne looked up at the quiet, soft tone, meeting gentle green eyes and a shy, if amused, grin. “So yes, it is safe to assume so.” Gretchen continued, before falling silent.

Anne nodded, but this time it was Ally who spoke up first. “And uh, just before you ask, I’m first cover Cleves and Parr, Regina is first cover Aragon and Seymour, and Skye is first cover Bo- well, you, and Howard.” She couldn’t help but chuckled softly at the girl’s stumble, before nodding.

“Well then, I can’t wait for a chance to see you all perform.” ________________________________________________________________

That chance, it turned out, would come just that Sunday, their last day of the week and a double show day. Though, not for Anne herself, at least not the first show.

Anne seemed to have gotten herself roped into a last minute interview organized by the show’s producers, and so, instead of the first (and only) debut being Ally’s in the evening show as Cathy, and since Gretchen had to call out due to illness, it seemed Skye would get the honor of first debut as Anne.

And quite frankly, Kath couldn’t wait for it.

Even as she got on stage, with the white lights simply showing their silhouettes backlit to the audience, she couldn’t help but shoot Skye a quick glance, looking up and down at the girl’s turquoise outfit, before fixating for just a moment on her hair, a mix of jet black and the near exact same shade as her costume, before averting her gaze when the first beats of the show sounded.

Kath let her mind run on autopilot during the show, up until just a bit after Catherine’s solo.

“Yeah, you know… the one, you’ve been waiting for!”

The audience sounded softly at that line, as if heating up for the proper cheer, and Kath couldn’t help but all but bounce through the choreography as they prepared for what would usually be Anne’s big reveal, but today would be Skye’s.

“Anne Boleyn!”

The end of the intro to the song was met with laughter from the audience at the sight of Skye sat on the steps, in between Maria and Joan, staring at her hand as if she were holding a phone. She let out a soft, slightly confused giggle along with the audience, waiting until they quieted down before speaking.

“Literally what are th-” She looked up, as if only now noticing the audience, and then seemed to shrink into herself the tiniest bit, although her confident smirk betrayed her actual feelings- she was loving this. “Oh. Sorry!”

At that, she all but jumped onto her feet as the first notes of Don’t Lose Ur Head sounded, and the show was on the road.

As they performed, even after the song was over, Kath couldn’t help but analyze the way Skye acted. It was confident, but not cocky- it was self assured, and grounded, as if she didn’t think she was better than all of them, she knew she was better than all of them. And she would be damned if she didn’t show it.

It seemed to work, as Skye’s delivery of Anne’s one liners had the audience all but roaring all the time, and by the end of the show it seemed as if Skye had conquered the hearts of all audience members.

It was almost scary. But at the same time, fitting. She may have not known Skye for long, but even then she could tell she was good at persuading people. She was impressed, if she was being honest.

It was when leaving the stage that the problems started.

One tiny misstep was all it took, and suddenly Kath had nearly fallen, pain shooting up from her ankle and the only thing keeping her from doing so being the tight grip on her arm.

If it weren’t for the fact that she was in really high spirits and the very light feeling of a costume’s fabric brushing against her arm, she would’ve definitely panicked.

As it was, however, she managed to keep herself together just enough to regain her balance, pressing more on her good foot, turning around as soon as the pressure around her arm was released, coming face to face with Skye, who looked both incredibly concerned and incredibly apologetic.

“I’m sorry I held you so tight, I just wanted to make sure you didn’t fall. Are you alright?”

Kath almost nodded. But then she tried to set more pressure on her hurt foot, and a brand new wave of pain shot up, forming tears in the corners of her eyes.

“Okay, that’s a no.” Skye’s awkward half laugh almost made Kath feel just a tiny bit better. “‘S okay! Probably just a twisted ankle, there’s no reason for it to be anything worse. Can I help you to your dressing room?”

After Kath nodded, she leaned just enough against Skye as the latter wrapped an arm around her shoulders, gently helping her up the stairs and to her dressing room.

Once Kath was sitting on the dressing room’s couch with one foot propped up and Skye sat on the opposite arm rest with a few anti inflammatories (“you underestimate how often I twist my ankle, or get hurt in general,” was her response when Kath had asked her why she just had some on them) in one hand and a glass of water in the other, she took off her show shoe as carefully as she could.

“Yeah, that’s definitely twisted.” Skye stated with a calm certainty as Kath stared warily at her swollen up ankle. She looked up when she got handed the meds and glass, taking them without another word before letting her head rest against the back of the couch.

“It just had to happen on a double show day, huh.” She grumbled, just managing a half-smile that earned her a chuckle from Skye.

“Yeah, it sucks ass. But hey, don’t stress! Better for you to get some rest so you can be back as soon as you can.” Skye reminded softly, and Kath couldn’t help a quiet chuckle when Skye leaned in and tapped the tip of her nose with her finger.

They both looked towards the door when they heard it open, and a very concerned looking Anne peeked in through it, clearly winded from what Kath had to assume was running. “Okay, sorry, I literally came running as soon as I heard what happened.”

At Anne’s slightly panicked tone, Skye gave a soft smile, before standing up. “I’ll give you both some time.” ________________________________________________________________

“She likes you.”

Regina’s voice, calm and serene as always, still managed to surprise Skye as she closed the dressing room’s door behind her. “How so?” She retorted as she took her usual seat next to the older girl, raising an eyebrow.

Regina gave a soft chuckle at that. “Kath doesn’t trust people easily. You can hardly blame her, after everything that happened to her, but still. She trusts you, though- she wouldn’t have let you help her otherwise.”

Skye looked down at the counter while shrugging, feeling her cheeks heat up as she blushed and staying quiet for a minute before looking back up, unusually serious. “Well, yeah, but healing also makes it easier for you to trust people again. You know that as well as I do, ‘Gina.”

Regina’s gaze hardened slightly at that, but still Skye didn’t back down, looking back at her while she waited for an answer. “Maybe so,” she finally settled on, “but even so.”

“I got it. I was just trying to make sure she felt comfortable.”

“She wouldn’t have let you stay if she wasn’t. Either that, or the others would’ve come in way earlier. Jane definitely would have, that woman has a sixth sense.” Neither of them could hold back their snickers at that comment, but even so Regina was the first to regain composure, as always. “So I think it’s safe to say you did just fine.”

Skye nodded at that, before reaching forward to grab her “K” choker. “Regardless, I’ve got bigger things to focus on right now.” She let out a soft sigh, a mix of worry and excitement in her voice. “It’s Howard time, I guess.” ________________________________________________________________

“Divorced.”

The audience’s chatter quieted down as Aragon’s booming voice filled the theatre, save for a few soft cheers or muffled squeals, and Ally could barely stay still as she waited for her turn.

“Beheaded.”

The audience full on cheered as her girlfriend’s voice sounded, clear and confident but still so distinctly young and playful.

But she couldn’t stop to analyse just yet- she had a show to do.

“Survived.”

A similar, or perhaps even louder cheer broke after she’d spoke, and Ally couldn’t help but shoot a quick glance towards Skye, both wearing matching, wide grins, that they both were quick to hide as Aragon moved on with the show, and they both followed the choreography they’d rehearsed to the point of knowing one another’s first covers at least semi decently. Not decently enough to actually play them, but semi decently.

She went through most of Ex-Wives focused on the choreography and words, refusing to let herself mess up on the first song of her fucking West End debut- she knew how harshly swings and alternates were judged, and she wasn’t about to risk it. It was midway through the queens’ individual intros, however, where her body began to move on near auto pilot while she did the choreography.

“Funny how we all discuss that but never Henry’s lil’-”

“Prick up your ears, I’m the Katherine who lost her head!”

Ally could barely hear their “beheaded!” over the audience’s cheer when Skye piped up, and even Skye, who Ally was (unfortunately) very aware of how loud Skye was naturally, had to raise her tone to make herself heard over their screams.

“For my promiscuity, outside of wed! Lock up your husbands, lock up your sons, K Howard is here and the fun’s begun!”

“Survived.”

Ally couldn’t help but feel that familiar mix of anxiety and excitement pool at the bottom of her stomach while she stepped forward, facing the audience- and more specifically the front rows, as she was looking slightly downward- as calmly as she could manage.

“Five down, I’m the final wife. I saw him to the end of his life.” Hand on her waist, she looked up to the rest of the stalls, before moving her gaze up to the circle and its slips as she sung. “I’m the survivor, Catherine Parr.” A nod towards the audience as she raised the fist that was previously on her waist, the women behind her doing the same. “I bet you wanna know how we got this far.”

They went about the show without any problems, but it was after the “I have the plague” joke where she could see the audience (for some members literally) lean forward in their seats.

“Okay, okay, okay!” She spoke up, waiting until the four women had quieted before continuing. “You know what, I think it’s time we heard from our next queen, K Howard!”

The audience absolutely roared as Skye stepped forward, and Ally could barely keep a proud grin off her face as Skye did a tiny curtsy.

Then, she had to physically keep herself from jumping when she saw someone move forward from the corner of her eye, calming when she noticed it was Anne. “Babes, who’s that again?”

Skye’s excited grin fell off her face, and even if Ally knew by the gleam in her eyes that it was all an act, she could barely keep herself from going to comfort her.

Ally felt like she was in a daze as the scenes went on- it was only right before All You Wanna Do when she snapped out of it.

“So yeah! I can’t even begin to imagine how I could compete with you all!” Skye paused, letting the audience laugh, before continuing. “Oh wait, like this!”

And thus the song was on. Skye kept the confident yet childlike act up throughout for the first half of the song, quick smirks and winks towards the audience frequent for the first two verses and choruses. It was after the third chorus ended where things started to change.

“So we got married.” With a nervous chuckle and smile, Skye addressed the audience, rocking back and forward just a tiny bit. “Woo!” Her voice was higher pitched than usual, even as she tried to stay calm (or at least tried to act like she was trying to stay calm).

She went through the fourth verse with a soft voice, so unlike what she’d done before. It was near the end, however, after the final “connection”, that it began to change, turning into a near roar as she put her full emotion into the ending chorus.

“The only thing, the only thing, the ONLY thing you wanna do is-” She tsked, then huffed, almost stumbling as she threw her head back. And then the audience blew up.

After that, Ally wasn’t quite sure what happened. If she was being honest with herself, she went on autopilot for most of the rest of the show. It was only near the end of the final song that she actually snapped out of it, when Skye approached her as they neared the last official line of the show and the two did that same dance move from the very first dance break- take her hand, hold it up, curtsy, switch places. Then, they went into position for the end of the show.

“For, five, four, three, two, one more minute!” Maria’s drums roared, and Ally couldn’t keep a slightly tired grin off her face.

“We’re SIX!”

My half of an Art Trade with @ilenalovesdrawing​

Kath turning into an ogress, looks a lot like a female version of the hulk. Not the most pleasant experience as becoming an ogre involves becoming larger, dumber and more aggressive

had to pay special attention to the tattoo, but drawing the line-art was fun. 

Also Kath’s ogre design gave me an idea, you can easily tell the sex of an ogre by looking at their teeth.

Males have one large pair of external tusks used for fighting with other males, Females have two smaller pairs.

you learn something new everyday!

Arthur, Kath and Hal being an ogre family!

Happy Ogre Fam

Kath by @ellielovesdrawing

[vioislit]

@ anon: i support the wives adopting the kids but also poor katherine howard was seven years younger than Mary so this is gonna be an interesting family dynamic (cathy parr legit looked after Elizabeth for a time though)

okay but let’s do the thing where

Kath Howard, Mary Tudor, Elizabeth Tudor, and Edward Tudor are ALL ADOPTED BY THE OTHER QUEENS because Katherine was like,, 18-19 when she died

Jane is the most sensitive and sweet mom I think that the girls can go to for like, hearts to hearts and Anne’s the crazy fun mom and Cath of Aragon’s the strict mom and Cath Parr is the super like,,, encouraging and empowering mom and Anna (of Cleves) is the like, rich vodka aunt that go with them to get their first tattoos behind the rest’s back

obviously that’s not to say that they’re not a l l sweet and fun and empowering! That’s just how I tell them apart in my head

First Kiss

"I-I'm sorry for wasting your time! I should get back to--!"

Kath grabs her arm and pulls her close.

"Ibby, just shut up for a second."

Before Sibylle could process what was going on, the red head's lips were on hers.

Effectively shutting her up.

Sibylle von Kleve belongs to yours truly.

Katherine Tudor belongs to @ellielovesdrawing.
