Rights of Child in Father’s Property After Divorce

Dr Ajay Kummar Pandey, Advocate Supreme Court 

As per Hindu Succession Act, children are coparceners, ones who share equally in the inheritance of an undivided property, including ancestral property. This right comes to children by birth itself. They also enjoy the right to survivorship, i.e. the right to divide the share among rest if one of the coparceners dies along with the right to sell their share of the property to anyone they want and so on. However, these rights can be denied to them under certain circumstances, including divorce.

Rights of Sons in Father’s Property

A property for the purpose of inheritance has been divided into  ancestral and self-acquired and the rights related to each of these differ. In case of  ancestral property, sons get inheritance rights by virtue of birth itself.  This property can be divided between father and son, even during the lifetime of the father.  Son is also free to sell his share in the ancestral property to any third person even before the formal partition of the property. However, the circumstance changes completely, when it comes to  a self-acquired property, of the father. Here, the father  has a right to gift or Will the property to anyone he deems fit, and no one can raise an objection over such transfer. Thus, if the property is a self-acquired property of the father and he has gifted or willed such property to someone by his own will, without any coercion, undue influence, fraud or misrepresentation, a right cannot be claimed over the property.

Rights of Daughters in Father’s Ancestral Property

Earlier, only male members of the Hindu Undivided Family (HUF) had a right over the ancestral property. However, after the amendment made to the Hindu Succession Act, in the year 2005, a Hindu female has an equal right in ancestral property as that of a Hindu male.

The Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act, 2005 that came into effect from  9 September 2005,  has removed provisions that were discriminatory towards Hindu daughter’s inheritance rights. The Act also provides that, a married Hindu daughter has a right of residence in her father’s house if she is deserted, divorced or widowed.

Further, until recently, the rights guaranteed to daughters under the 2005 amendment were considered to be applicable only to cases where a woman’s father was alive as on 09.09.2005  (i.e. the date on which the amendment was brought into force).

This meant that women whose fathers died before 09.09.2005 were denied the coparcenary rights guaranteed by the 2005 amendment. But now it stands rectified and it is applicable retrospectively to all cases irrespective of the date of 09.09.2005. This final move has completely eliminated any discrimination between the rights of daughters and sons.

Rights of a Child in Father’s Property After Divorce 

In the background of the above, now it can be clearly said that divorce does not affect the rights of a child in the father’s ancestral property. A child may be excluded from their father’s ancestral property if there is a will that excludes them from inheriting such ancestral property.

The self-acquired property of a father is his own. He may choose to dispose  it off  or transfer it according to his discretion. A child shall not claim a share in his father’s self-acquired property as a birthright.

Generally, the self-acquired property is bequeathed to a child by their parents. In case a father dies without a will, the child can claim a share in the self-acquired property of the father. While divorce does not affect the rights of a child in the property of their father, they depend upon the father making a will.

We should also consider whether a father can gift a property to  his son . In a recent case, the Supreme Court held that a property that was gifted  by a father to his son could not be counted as an ancestral property simply because he got it from his father. The court stated that the property of the grandfather can be held as the father’s ancestral property.

There are only two conditions under which the father would get the property, one being that he inherits the property after his father dies or in case the fathers’ father had made a partition during his lifetime. However, when the father obtains the grandfather’s property by way of gift, it is not considered an ancestral property. Sons and daughters don’t have any claim on the said property gifted by the grandfather.

A gift from the father to his son is not a part of the ancestral property as the son does not inherit the property on the death of the grandfather or receive it by partition made by the grandfather during his lifetime. The grandson has no legal right on such a property because his grandfather chose to bestow a favor on his father which he could have bestowed on any other person as well.

Thus, the interest which he takes in such a property must depend upon the will of the grantor and therefore, when the son has got the property from his father as a gift, his other sons or daughters cannot claim any part in it calling it an ancestral property. He can alienate the gifted property to anyone he likes and in any way he likes. Such a property is treated as a self-acquired property, provided there is no expressed intention in the deed of the gift by the grandfather while gifting the property to his son.

The Hindu Succession Act, under Sections 24 to 28 provide for certain cases where an heir may be disqualified from inheriting the property of a person dying intestate. Of these disqualifications, one which may lead to the disqualification of the right to inherit property by a son or daughter is the provision of ‘murdered disqualified'. As per this provision, a person who commits or abets the commission of the murder shall be disqualified from inheriting any property of the person murdered. Thus, if a son or daughter is found guilty of murdering or abetting the murder of his/her father then, they shall be disqualified by law from claiming their share in his property upon succession.

Louise I'm dying to know what this 150 page fic is about...

in the interest of full disclosure i have had SO many ideas for fics and have drafted all of them in varying degrees. that one is definitely the longest but there are a couple not too far behind. i have no idea if it will ever see the light of day (knowing myself, probably not -- but not impossible!) so i'll try to give it a brief synopsis.

story basically takes place in two parts: we start with stan, who is now 31 years old. he lives in a farmhouse in south park (initial idea was mr. jenkins' property, though since i began writing this pre-tegridy, which is already a bonkers sentence, trey comes in clutch with the assist and hands me an easy rewrite.) and is married to bebe, who is a livestock veterinarian. stan works as a handyman in town. bebe is also 4mos pregnant with their first child.

on a nondescript afternoon, kyle waltzes onto his property and back into south park for the first time since he abruptly and without warning left eight years prior. he is in town for two weeks to help his parents square away their finances and sell the house in preparation for their retirement. kyle wants to reconnect; stan does not. does anyway. cue a lot of passive aggressive sexual tension and miscommunication amidst all the nostalgic navel gazing.

notable side characters: butters is the elementary guidance counselor. craig is the 6th grade science teacher. kenny is a bartender. cartman is a public access televangelist. wendy is in the middle of her campaign to become mayor. randy is randy. sharon is terminally ill in palliative hospice care and is expected to die within the next six weeks. her death occurs towards the end of kyle's stay, which prolongs his stay by a short while.

second half takes place eight years later. stan and bebe are freshly and (mostly) amicably divorced, with a 7 year old daughter. stan is having trouble adjusting to his life as a middle aged divorced dad. kyle again waltzes back into his life to disrupt it by revealing his intent to move back home to south park. well intentioned and poorly timed chaos ensues wherever kyle rears his head.

it's definitely a stan/kyle story but a lot of this was also the backdrop for me to do an indulgent character study of stan. i_just_think_he's_neat.jpg

while i'm at it, as i've been pouring over flashdrives and hardrives and google docs and .docx files the last few weeks, i'll mention a few other fics i've written significant amounts for under the cut if anyone's interested.

-- 60s period piece. stan/craig and stan/kyle. desiring more out of life than accepting defeat and returning home to a life in the lumberyard or the sugar beet factory like his peers back in his quiet mountain town, stan drops out of college nearing the end of his first semester sophomore year of college as he's failing miserably. he rides the rails to new york to pursue his real dream, which is to be a folk singer. he lands at the doorstep of the only person he knows in new york -- craig, who is living in greenwich village. craig left south park immediately after high school and is an aspiring playwright. he and stan had an exploratory sexual relationship as school boys out of convenience, and their correspondence since has been sparse. craig immediately wants to tell him to hit the bricks, but he feels some pity for stan and allows him to stay with him, so long as it is short and temporary (narrator voice: it was not).

meanwhile, kyle is something of an upper crust socialite in manhattan, with deep ties to the art world. his grandmother, cleo broflovski, was a pivotal figure in the dadaist movement and her body of work has established the broflovskis as a family of significant wealth, which is aided in the modern day by gerald's rising star as a preeminent lawyer in the booning world of 60s corporate IP law after abandoning his early specialization in civil rights. this is a point of estrangement for kyle, who grew up idolizing his father, as he finds his work unethical. but not unethical enough to refuse the rewards. there is also the open secret of kyle's flagrant homosexuality, which embarrasses gerald deeply. ike plays baseball at penn state. kyle has an indefinite room at the hotel chelsea and spends his days reading, smoking, having gay sex, and scouting the city for creatives in need of a doting patron. he is also hopelessly addicted to cocaine.

stan make pennies busking outside the cafe wha? when he's spotted by recording manager eric cartman, who is looking for a new cash cow that is young, dumb, and easy to trick in order to take advantage of the folk revival, and he's just found it. simultaneously, craig is preparing to have his first meeting with kyle about his potential interest in craig's stage play. he was put in touch with him via friend wendy, who has worked with kyle in the recent past. wendy's cousin is the manager at julius's, a de facto gay bar that kyle frequented until he was forbidden due to his "disorderly" conduct (see: cruising). she proposed quid pro quo -- she will convince her cousin to rescind kyle's ban if he will read craig's manuscript. kyle agrees to the terms.

they meet a week later at said bar, and stan asks to tag along, figuring he should try to get to know as many people as possible. craig reluctantly agrees. craig knows of kyle through conflicting reputations, depending who you ask. at the bar they make brief small talk. kyle is polite, if not suspiciously so when he tells craig that he sees promise in his work but feels no attachment to it. craig, impatient and not wanting to wait to have something come of his current squalor, implores kyle to reconsider. this goes back and forth before kyle takes this as an insult to his judgment. he rudely tells craig his work is derivative and that tennessee williams has too many poor imitators as is. craig throws kyle's drink in his face and turns heel to leave. kyle, high as a kite, finds this all delightful. stan, horrified by craig's behavior, immediately apologizes and begins dabbing kyle with cocktail napkins and attempting to save face for craig. craig calls for stan like a dog and tells him to knock it off, or he's on his own to figure the way out home. stan apologizes profusely again before following suit. kyle is unbelievably charmed by stan's boyishness and unassuming affect, the guitar on his back, his role as the lamb in the lion's den in the duo, and finds himself overwhelmed with the inexplicable urge to know as much about him as possible. kyle, with wendy as the intermediary, reaches out to craig to let him know that he has indeed reconsidered his position, and would like to speak to him and his 'associate' again. craig wants to tell kyle to go fuck himself, but relents when stan makes the case for not wasting the opportunity.

-- surrealist horror and also black comedy. not necessarily relationship focused, but stan/kyle is very much in play. background: stuart elopes with a younger woman and abandons the mccormick family; at the time kenny + boys are 15/16, karen is 13. due to the stress of carol working two jobs and doing a great job at being an okay-ish only moderately neglectful parent, karen begins frequently running away. she usually just stays the night with a friend or is only 'gone' for a few hours until kenny finds her or she willingly comes home. real "boy who cried wolf" situation. until one day, karen runs away and has now been gone for three days. detective yates assures they are looking for her (they are not) and that she'll probably come home any second (she doesn't) because the kicker is that karen, legitimately, is missing. the morning of this fourth day, kyle, cartman, stan, and kenny all wake up to find dead coyotes with slit throats on their doorsteps. what a really weird coincidence, right.

as a group, they have been canvassing the neighborhood for a few days, asking all of karen's friends -- they assure none of them have seen her. kenny is unable to focus on anything else as stan and kyle try to offer empty hope. as they progress through the school day, they are alarmed when an emergency assembly is called. detective yates and the police department are there. they are now taking karen's disappearance seriously, as in the night, two of their fellow students have vanished and are reported missing: butters stotch and heidi turner. this is alarming to cartman, as butters was supposed to finish his book report on wuthering heights last night. who will he boss around now. this is debilitating to stan, as heidi turner has been his girlfriend for the last four months. the police encourage the students to go about their normal day, beware of strangers, lock their doors, and stay off the internet. kyle is trying to figure out what the connection between karen, heidi, and butters could possibly be, and if the coyotes on their doorstep are also involved somehow. they resolve after school that it's up to them to find their friends.

what neither kenny nor karen nor anyone else knows is that karen is also a netherborn. because the curse was made at kenny's birth he suffers the effects of immortality but the curse doesn't only affect one child; carol's womb is cursed forever and any child birthed thereafter suffers as well.

and what they also don't know is why she's missing, which is damien. damien is hellbent (ha) on destroying south park and kenny, kyle, cartman, and stan for driving him back to hell. he needs a female netherborn host after she has reached the age of menarche in order to cast the earth unto darkness, and the only thing that can kill a netherborn is, of course, another netherborn. on the day karen runs away, she runs deep into the woods. south park, with a history as an old mining town, has a series of collapsed mines, some deeper than others. damien mimics the voice of someone in distress, guiding karen toward him and pretending to be an innocent who explored too deeply in one of these mines, and uses this to lure her to him. after, he has systematically lured the person each of the boys care most about. well, except for kyle.

that night, it's about 7pm, the boys are now scouring these very woods in search of karen or any clues to her disappearance. it's at this point that stan asks kenny if he has every thought to check the proximity of any mine shafts, or whether karen would go to them. kenny doesn't believe she would, but no stone unturned. the woods diverge, and kenny and cartman take the right path, stan and kyle the other. they communicate with high range walkie talkies they all agreed to get two summers ago. we focus on stan and kyle's leg of the journey and their conversations -- hypothesis on what's causing these events, stan's nervousness for heidi's safety, kyle's hormonal and passive aggressive gay angst, etc. they happen upon another coyote. stan is too upset to look closely, and falls back to wait by a tree while kyle investigates. his back is turned only for a minute or two, but when stan provides no response to his out loud thinking, kyle turns around to find stan gone. he calls for him a few times with a growing sense of impending doom. when he tries stan on the walkie, it's only unnaturally loud and ear piercing static.

oh and what no one knows again is that kyle also has psychokinesis.

-- stan/kyle, established relationship. stan and kyle are in their 40s, they now live in michigan. stan is a departmental manager at a grocery store after a nearly fatal injury forced him to give up his career as a firefighter. kyle is a school administrator. they have three children: a boy, 15, who is ike's biological son that kyle has had custody of since he was 6. they also have two younger girls, 8 and 5. ongoing argument is about their son's desire to leave his current school in order to attend a boarding school 7 hours away due to its illustrious hockey program. the girls are precocious and shy and a little bit neurotic. it's a normal day in the marsh-broflovski household until stan is shaken awake at two in the morning by kyle and informed they are flying back to south park, as gerald has just had a stroke and is in the hospital.

back in south park, they head to the hospital. things are not looking good. adult kyle has a very strained relationship with ike and gerald specifically, but his duty first and foremost is to his mother. their lives were all derailed when five years after it first started, gerald was tried and convicted on two counts of manslaughter and serves eight years in prison after he resumes his online skankhunt trolling, which is so prolonged and so malicious in nature it causes two teenage girls to kill themselves. the public outcry and national attention it receives hastens the sentencing despite the precedent for it being currently charted territory. anyway gerald dies several hours later without regaining consciousness.

kyle takes charge of all arrangements to be made immediately, including the fact they will now be in south park for a week in order to observe shiva for gerald. stan and kyle agreed that the kids would be raised jewish; stan took a few conversion classes, but it was never all that important to kyle that stan convert specifically and the importance of doing it gets lost for stan in the day to day of life. all this to say he did not realize this was happening. gerald's funeral is the following morning and for the next seven days kyle, stan, their children, ike, ike's current girlfriend, sheila, and gerald's brother sit shiva in the broflovski household; over the week, kyle has to confront and reconcile with the difficult relationship he has with his family in a town full of people he hoped to get away from forever who are now only an unlocked door away.

-- short story. stan/kyle, and i guess in a coy way also jimbo/ned. when stan is on the cusp of puberty, jimbo begins a 'tradition' that the two days before thanksgiving, he takes stan on an uncle/nephew hunting trip. stan hates this tradition. their freshman year of community college, stan invites kyle on this trip. kyle, meanwhile, is dealing with sheila's sudden and untimely death just before they graduate high school. stan is trying and struggling with how to be there for kyle, cos he's different now. during the trip, kyle kills a wounded animal. stan and kyle fight about this, though the fight is Actually About A Lot More Than That. stan has a private conversation with jimbo about his concern for kyle after it's only the two of them, and after getting surprisingly sensitive advice from his uncle, stan attempts to resolve their conflict. they do, in an odd manner. thanksgiving is consequently weird, with the broflovskis joining the marsh's for thanksgiving as a show of love and support during this difficult time. death makes everything weird.

i have others but these are what i have the most fleshed out for. i realize parent death is a recurring theme and don't worry, one day i will think of a great idea to kill randy.

Enchanted to Meet You

Hello @corcracrow, your Secret Santa here! I know I haven't filled you with questions as I would’ve liked, and you probably have the feeling of not knowing me that well, but unfortunately real life has hit hard both on my creative process and my free time. Anyway, I don’t want to spoil the mood for I'm very happy to reveal myself and I hope you likethe first chapter of the fic I have prepared for this year’s @acotargiftexchange

Plot: The Archeron sisters are prominent members of the Upper East Side, as are the Vanserras. Elain is fresh out of a disappointing relationship, while Lucien is the neglected seventh child of a couple who haven’t loved each other for a long time. Will they be able, after a chance meeting at a Christmas party, to build something they could cherish or will gossips and meddling families stifle the budding interest they feel for each other?

Words: 2241

Elain looked around, a glass of champagne held firmly in her right hand. The celebrations were going well, Feyre was having fun, laughing at a joke delivered by her new boyfriend, while Nesta twirled on the dancefloor like a ballerina in a music box, barely noticing her partner. It was the second Christmas party they attended this year, but since their business was booming, she guessed it wouldn’t be the last. At least the host picked some quality wine, a competent catering and classy live music. All the participants belonged only to the best families of the Upper East Side although, and she suspected not by mere coincidence, the Nolans were missing from the guest list. Some had already begun to whisper ill-will about their absence, but since the event was being held on one of Rhysand’s properties, Elain had the privilege to screen out those who were no longer welcome in her vicinity. She was aware she shouldn’t have been so naïve, a marriage proposal so hasty and at such a young age could only come from the heart when net worths like theirs weren’t at stake, but since she still struggled to figure out what to do with her feelings about it, she thought it wiser to let those social climbers stay in the dark place they called home.

Graysen had defined the architecture of his house as designer modern brutalism, but Elain, for the short time she had spent within its walls, had thought it nothing more than a luxurious prison. There were few windows, practically no natural sunlight, it didn’t have a balcony, a veranda, or even a garden, and although the underground swimming pool and spa had done their duty when she needed to relax, everything, including the obsessive order kept in the rooms by a bevy of maids she had never met, appeared fake. Like the love of its heir, after all, like the glittering gifts of his mother. There was no sentiment in everything they did, and since nothing was more distant from the teachings of her father, Elain had decreed that what happened before it was too late was for the best. Not that she would’ve completely ruled out the idea of a divorce if she found out after she married him that Graysen had joined their families only for financial benefit, but it was a nuisance she preferred to avoid, just like the fast-approaching gossips.

Luckily, someone was ready to save her, or so it seemed from the twinkle in the russet eye she met.

She knew Lucien Vanserra only by name, but his story was almost legendary and the reason most rich parents won’t let their kids go to public schools anymore, even if they were renowned and the courses were the best in the US: coveted heartthrob while still in college, a young professor not in her right mind developed a crush on his socially anxious best friend. When he’d rightly rejected her, she had decided to disfigure him with a kitchen knife. Lucien had been quick to push his mate away from the blade, but had been hit in turn, losing his eye and, despite countless surgeries, finding half his face permanently disfigured by a deep white scar, in stark contrast with his amber skin.

“I wanted to wait for some mutual acquaintance to do the honors, but given the situation it seemed like an appropriate time to come and introduce myself,” he said by a way of greeting, extending a manicured hand. The sleeve of his green jacket ran up a little, showing off a probably priceless watch, matched with the eccentric gold prosthetic with which he had replaced the missing eye.

 “We’ve really lost our manners these days,” Elain joked, offering him a firm shake. It was her mother who told her, before she died all those years ago, that a weak hand was a sign of a weaker character, and after the misunderstanding with the Nolans, she was determined to convey confidence in every detail of her being. That was why she had chosen the dress she was wearing, with a neckline not too exaggerated but not even as chaste as she would’ve once preferred, the skirt narrower on the hips, where previously would’ve been tulle and wide pleats.

“Who do you think is the rudest?” Lucien asked, scanning the people by the bar. Being caught red handed, those who had distracted themselves from their conversations to glance curiously in their direction suddenly turned back to their interlocutors, making Elain smile bitterly. She could already imagine what they would say about them at the next brunch they were going to attend, she could already hear them referring to Lucien as the Beast to Elain’s Beauty regardless of the fact he was extremely charming, his disability just a means to spout malice.

“After careful consideration, I think Keir wins the prize,” Elain admitted, glaring at a blond-haired man who was displaying his voluptuous daughter like a beast at the farmers market to a group of older guests. The young woman seemed incredibly uncomfortable but didn’t leave her father’s side until a scary guy, all cradled in black, asked her to dance.

“He has been trying for nearly a year to convince my father that she and my brother would be a good match, but I think Eris’s interest lies elsewhere,” Lucien replied, nodding at Nesta’s current dance partner. His hair was a little more orange than Lucien’s, way shorter but still long enough to be tied at his nape, and although his skin was lighter, the resemblance was uncanny despite the age difference.

“She’s a though nut to crack,” Elain warned him, wondering if at least this bachelor would last a few months with her. The previous suitor didn’t get to the end of the third, retreating in his chase because of her cold and detached attitude.

“Who knows, they might have found each other, then,” Lucien muttered, drawing a surprised laugh from Elain. She was happy not to be an only child, but sometimes being three sisters and with such different characters was a real challenge. She couldn’t imagine how Lucien managed to get along with everyone in his large family, although, being the seventh, it probably meant nobody paid him much attention.

“Are you as difficult as him?” she asked, once the silence stretched for a little too long. She was enjoying their conversation, the ease with which Lucien opened up, as if he wasn’t used to be associated with the same high-class circles as the rest of the presents. His quick remarks had the same taste as notes passed under the desk during boring lessons, thrilling and personal, even if they talked about nothing of substance, and his presence was grounding, capable of freeing her mind from unpleasant thoughts and calming her anxiety.

"If I want to, but fortunately it’s not something I have often to retort to,” he replied, before downing the glass of liquor in his right hand in a single sip. “And are you the gentles of the bunch as is rumored?”

Elain thought about it for a second. Regardless of how she wanted to behave, her nature wasn’t as wild and showy as Feyre’s or as relentless and demanding as Nesta’s: her qualities lay in diplomacy and understanding of her surroundings, she liked to observe more than act, and make thoughtful decisions to prevent mistakes. She was reserved, always composed, and knew how to keep her opinions to herself, but that didn’t make her any less dangerous, just easier to underestimate.

“I suppose so, or maybe I’m just really good at my job,” she replied, finishing the champagne herself and depositing the flute on an empty tray.

“Which, if I’m not mistaken, is sadly required,” he murmured in her ear, sending a shiver down her naked back. Elain followed his line of vision, and saw her father suspiciously pale and unsure on his legs.

Her eyes involuntarily rolled back in her skull. It was always the same damn story: he was the CEO of a multi-million-dollar company, not a small-town carpenter unfamiliar with open bars, therefore he should’ve known better than to get wasted before midnight, but punctual like a Swiss clock, he proved to be unable to complete even such a simple task. Elain didn’t expect him to suddenly stop drinking, despite all the help his daughters offered and the professionals they were handsomely paying, but she felt like it wasn’t too much to ask for him to not make a fool of himself at public events.

“I could show you where the backdoor is,” suggested her interlocutor, offering his arm with a wink of his good eye. “That’s where I usually sneak out from anyway.”

Convincing her father to move away from the corner of the room where he had retreated, probably in vain search of the poorly positioned bathroom, wasn’t as simple as it may sound, but once they succeeded, Lucien helped her to keep him upright, to make as few guests as possible notice his state.

“After you,” he told her with a polite smile, when they finally reached their destination, before opening the plastic door and bowing to let her pass like the humble usher of one of the luxurious hotels where he too surely used to stay when he did something his parents wouldn’t have approved of.

As soon as she stepped out, the acrid smell of New York immediately flooded her nostrils, and she was sure that if it hadn’t rained so heavily a couple of fat rats would’ve welcomed them back into the real world too.

“My usual luck,” Elain muttered, trying to keep from shivering in the cold. Her jacket had remained in the wardrobe, as to attract as little attention as possible, but the taxi Lucien had kindly called was at least a couple minutes away, so she could only hope that the thin fabric of her dress didn’t show off her nipples hardened by the winter air.

“My mother told me cream goes great with green,” Lucien whispered, and before Elain could ask him what the hell he was talking about, she felt the weight of his blazer settle on her shoulders.

“Thank you,” she murmured, meeting his gaze perhaps for the first time since they’d taken shelter under the tiny plastic canopy. He wasn’t pitying her, he wasn’t amused nor even annoyed, he simply seemed used to helping strangers in need and vaguely sorry that their time together had come to a premature end.

“No need to thank me Cinderella,” he replied, very tenderly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. “But now we have to load your father into the carriage.”

The taxi had indeed arrived at the only exit of the dead-end street, as close as possible to its future passengers. The pouring rain didn’t take long to soak her hair, and Lucien’s white shirt stuck to his arms, the muscles tense from the effort. The cold seemed to have brought her father a little back to his senses, but his tremors, mixed with an innate lack of coordination exacerbated by the alcohol, weren’t helping.

“Your jacket…” Elain started, once she was seated, but the owner shut her with a shrug.

“See it as a reason to look for me if you ever want to see me again,” he replied, and with that, he closed the door, gesturing for the driver to start moving.

“Where am I taking you, miss?” asked the man, who was already taking the road furthest from the entrance of the venue to avoid the paparazzi camped nearby despite the adverse weather, when he realized she wasn’t going to give him directions soon, the girl too focused on the encounter she just had. Blushing for the embarrassment, and with her mind focused mainly on the heat emanating from Lucien, whose shadow remained on her in the form of his velvet jacket, she absentmindedly provided him her address.

In a moment of clarity, Elain forced herself not to be delusional. Such a handsome and charming guy was certainly already taken, or at least he had a roster of sexy lovers. But then why be so nice? Why help with her father? She was still up wandering the kitchen and asking herself questions she couldn’t know the answers to when Nesta returned home, fortunately alone.

“Judging by your state no redhead was lucky tonight,” she tried to joke, but Nesta’s expression was deadly grave and she plopped down on one of the chaises longues in the living room dimly lit by the fireplace.

“Do you think we should send him back to rehab?” Elain asked, sitting down on the expensive rug the subject of their conversation had bought on his last trip to the Middle East.

“I say give him a second chance, but only one,” she replied, her gaze following the dancing flames.

“You should’ve stayed at the party,” Elain scolded her, resting her head on her thigh, left bare by the deep slit of her dress. “The situation is under control.”

“I can’t have fun when I know you’re shouldering his addiction alone,” Nesta replied, stroking her still damp hair, destroying definitively the elaborate hairstyle. Elain didn’t say anything else, but for some reason, as Nesta recounted her version of the evening, her eyes kept slipping to the door in hope a certain gentleman would ring the doorbell just to say goodnight.

hello! is there a tag for a not related au x dptam fusion? if you haven't done that before, can you share some headcanons? (only if you feel like it though!) thanks! ❤️

I don't think there is! (If there is, please correct me I can't find anything at the best of times.)

All might sucks, as usual in these AUs. He sees a little kid with the physical power of All for One but none of the political backing or life experience? Well, he's got a weapon.

He stokes the fires of the HPSCs concern subtly, until they take Izuku from his mother to 'train' him so he's not a danger - realistically, everyone knows he has two options - HPSC mouthpiece or unwilling Tartarus Warden. All Might heroically swoops in, promising to train Izuku himself - after all, he's the strongest hero, no one else would be a better fit.

Inko isn't permitted to see her son outside of once a month visitations in HPSC or Mighty Agency property, but at least he's with his hero, doing what he always wanted. Right?

Seeing all of this gives Endeavour early character development - Rei divorces him after he tells her he didn't actually mean to trap her in this marriage and they become something close to friends. She lives a few houses down in a building he bought her in her name. Shouto, as a young child, is always pouty about not getting to speak to All Might at the public events, but Touya and his father go all quiet when he asks why.

Do you think that Hamilton’s children were aware of his illegitimacy? I highly doubt Hamilton talked about his childhood much, but do you think at least one or two of the children suspected something while he was alive? I know J.C. Hamilton skimmed over it in the biography he wrote of his father, so he at least was somewhat aware of it in adulthood.

It's not clear, but my best assumption is that he likely told them if they were curious (Which I'm sure they were, after all they were quite close with their maternal relatives and knew no one from their dad's side) the same story he told William Jackson, which was;

A Dane a fortune-hunter of the name of Lavine came to Nevis bedizzened with gold, and paid his addresses to my mother then a handsome young woman having a snug fortune. In compliance with the wishes of her mother who was captivated by the glitter of the [blank] but against her own inclination she married Lavine. The marriage was unhappy and ended in a separation by divorce. My mother afterwards went to St Kitts, became acquainted with my father and a marriage between them ensued, followed by many years cohabitation and several children. But unluckily it turned out that the divorce was not absolute but qualified, and thence the second marriage was not lawful. Hence when my mother died the small property which she left went to my half brother Mr Lavine who lived in South Carolina and was for a time partner with Mr Kane.

Source — Alexander Hamilton to William Jackson, [August 26, 1800]

Because interestingly, John C. Hamilton tells the exact same story in his biographies of his father;

Hamilton was the offspring of a second marriage. His mother's first husband was a Dane, named Lavine, who, attracted by her beauty, and recommended to her mother by his wealth, received her hand against her inclination. The marriage proving unhappy, she applied for and obtained a divorce, and removing to St. Christopher's, there married the father of the subject of these notices, and had by him several sons, of whom Alexander was the youngest.

Source — The Life of Alexander Hamilton, by John Church Hamilton

The falsehood here being that Rachel never acquired the proper divorce they make it seem. Additionally they had James Hamilton Jr. in 1753, and in 1757 or 1755 they had Hamilton (And whatever other possible siblings), before the divorce in 1759.

Nine years after Rachel left Lavien and was with James Sr., Lavien had found himself in a lot of debt, he had to sell most of his plantation, and rent out his few slaves to make enough. Additionally there was a woman living with him, and cleaning for him, so it is likely that he wished to marry her, which lead to him wishing to obtain a divorce summons on February 26, 1759. Lavien claimed Rachel had; “absented herself from [Lavien] for nine years and gone elsewhere, where she has begotten several illegitimate children, so that such action is believed to be more sufficient for him to obtain a divorce from her.” [x] Lavien also said he “had taken care of Rachel's legitimate child [Peter Lavien] from what little he has been able to earn,” while she had, “completely forgotten her duty and let husband and child alone and instead given herself up to whoring with everyone, which things the plantiff are so well known that her own family and friends must hate her for it.” [x] Lavien demanded that Rachel also be denied all legal rights to his property. He warned that if he died before her, Rachel as a widow would possibly seek to take “possession of the estate” and therefore, “not only acquire what she ought not to have but also take this away from his child and give it to her whore-children.” [x]

But the thing is, Rachel didn't even try to refute the allegations, or show up to court; which meant on the 25th of June, Lavien recieved a divorce that permitted him to remarry—but on the other hand, Rachel couldn't. So then, her children were deemed illegitimate, and she was barred from ever marrying again. There haven't been any discovered court or wedding records to show that Rachel may have tried to marry James before the divorce came up a few years later, so there is still the slight possibility Hamilton was right about his parents trying to marry and eventually when the divorce came up later it disallowed their marriage. But until that is actually proven, it seems like it was something Hamilton's parents told him, instead of the actual reality of the situation (Which definitely would have been a comprehensible lie, because Rachel knew full well she was not properly divorced, and even continued to go by “Lavien” on some of the records on the island). And he may have discovered the truth later on. After all, the records were on the island, and he would have found out about the 1759 divorce, or the 1769 probate record, especially since he was a smart kid and would have questioned their situation after his mother's death. He was pushed through several homes and lost everything, I think something would have noticably not been clicking together and he would have asked. But even so, it is likely Hamilton may have continued to repeat the story his parents told him to spare himself and his family roots. Granted, that is mostly all speculation.

John mentions that his father “rarely as he dwelt upon his personal history”, [x] so I don't think it was an open conversation topic with his kids. Although Hamilton did seem to fondly tell his kids about his mother and his time attending a Jewish school, so it wasn't as though he told his kids nothing. Just probably the sugarcoated truth. But I'm also sure the truth may have bypassed the older ones, especially when you consider how aware of politics Philip was at a young age, he was bound to hear at least a few times from his father's political rivals about Hamilton's illegitimacy. Wether he confronted his father about this, wether Hamilton probably tried to cover it up as mere slander, or wether Philip truly believed him, or may have had lingering suspicion; is all speculation. Perhaps that is why he was quite eager to fight for his father's honor when Eacker slandered the Federalist party. But I also think eventually all the kids would have had to have heard sometime in their adulthood about the illegitimacy rumors surrounding their father, but it's complete speculation what happened after. Did they ask their mother about it? Did Eliza also continue the myth that Hamilton used? Who knows. But it seems the family all followed the story that their father wasn't actually a bastard, but some legal mistakes got in the way.

Hope this helps!

Anne Brontë's novels are not as well known as those of her more famous elder sisters, but they told truths about the abject oppression of women that English society (even her own sisters) did not want to hear, much less address. Born 1820 in Haworth, Yorkshire, Anne was the youngest of the Brontë children.

"Her second novel and the most shocking of the collective Brontë novels, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, was published under her nom-de-plume, Acton Bell, and sold out in six weeks. Anne’s depiction of alcoholism, debauchery and what May Sinclair, a member of the Woman Writers' Suffrage League, described in 1913 as “the slamming of Helen Huntingdon's bedroom door against her husband” reverberated throughout Victorian England. It is considered one of the first feminist novels.

"Anne lived for most of her life with her family apart from attending boarding school for two years when she was 16, and a six year spell as a governess in her early twenties. Her mother, Maria, had died when she was barely a year old and in Elizabeth Gaskell’s biography of Charlotte Brontë, their father remembered her as precocious. When Anne was four, he had asked her what a child most wanted. She said, “Age and experience".

"The Brontë sisters like many women writers at the time published their poems and novels under male pen names so that their work might be taken seriously in the male-dominated literary world of the 19th century: they were Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell.

"Anne’s first novel, Agnes Grey, was published in 1847 under the pen name Acton Bell. It was based on her own experiences as a governess. Agnes Grey wants “to go out into the world; to act for myself; to exercise my unused faculties; to try my own unknown powers” but has to deal with instances of abuse of women and governesses, oppression and isolation.

"Her second novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, published in 1848, went further. The book describes how the protagonist Helen Huntingdon left her husband to protect her son and support them both by painting. This flew in the face of all social conventions and English law. Until the Married Women’s Property Act of 1870, a married woman was not legally a person in her own right; she was just an extension of her husband. She could not own property, sue for divorce or have legal custody of her own children. Mr Huntingdon had the legal right to force her to return, to have her charged with kidnapping for taking her own son, and with theft for supporting herself on her own money since all of her income legally belonged to him.

“Sick of mankind and their disgusting ways," scribbled Anne Brontë in pencil at the back of her Prayer Book.

"Anne met with fierce criticism for her work despite its huge popularity. Even her sister Charlotte said the portrayal of Mr Huntingdon was overly graphic and disturbing. Anne merely remarked mildly that she "wished to tell the truth" and stuck to her guns.

"After Anne's death at the age of 29 of tuberculosis, Charlotte *prevented further publication* of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, writing: “It hardly appears to me desirable to preserve. The choice of subject in that work is a mistake, it was too little consonant with the character, tastes and ideas of the gentle, retiring inexperienced writer.”

The last word to goes to Anne:

“When we have to do with vice and vicious characters, I maintain it is better to depict them as they really are than as they would wish to appear. To represent a bad thing in its least offensive light is doubtless the most agreeable course for a writer of fiction to pursue; but is it the most honest, or the safest? Is it better to reveal the snares and pitfalls of life to the young and thoughtless traveller, or to cover them with branches and flowers?

O Reader! if there were less of this delicate concealment of facts – this whispering 'Peace, peace', when there is no peace, there would be less of sin and misery to the young of both sexes who are left to wring their bitter knowledge from experience.”

1959 Pt2 - Jameson Reed

"Mizrahi? Any connection to the HCR?"

"I thought so but her father left Henford in the 30's. Lives in Copperdale now. Not rich enough to bother with a ransom. Sofia's practically useless to me."

"Sofia?! Why didn't you say so...She's the one we've been looking for."

"The kid with the cypher?"

"Not a kid any more."

Don smirked, "Not after I was done with her."

"She wouldn't know she has it, it's just a regular book to her, but there's no way she'd entrust someone like you with the information. We need someone to gain her trust."

"Who the plumb is this?"

"Don, meet Jameson Reed my most trusted agent. He specializes in undercover missions. He'll get the cypher."

"Forget it! She's mine, I don't part with my property for free."

"Oh don't worry, you'll be compensated. But you'll have to play along."

Jameson spoke for the first time. "Tell me a bit about this girl. What does she like?"

"Stupid fairy tales and her brat. Especially the brat. She won't shut up about her. If you swoop in like a fairy tale prince and keep the focus on the kid, she'll never suspect a thing."

Jameson Reed had settled into his mission a bit too comfortably for his liking. Getting married had not been the plan but it had been the only way to keep Sofia's focus on him like the sweet innocent dove she was. He'd kept her and the house bugged so he knew she was onto him.

"Going somewhere?"

"Oh um, Ava had a nightmare and Thomas was fussy...I was gonna make some hot chocolate."

"Ava hasn't had a nightmare in years and Thomas is a self-soother and doesn't like being held."

"Oh well, some hot chocolate still sounds nice. Would you like some?"

Jamal smiled that same smile that used to bring her such comfort and now sent a chill through her. "How bout you make some for you and Ava and I put Thomas back to bed."

"Oh...okay...thank you."

"Don't take long, Okay Baby?"

"Of course sweetie. I'll be right there."

Sofia yawned exaggeratedly as he entered the room but he pinned her to the mirror in the way that used to make her heart pound in anticipation...now it was pounding for a completely different reason. "What's going on with you?"

She removed his shirt, "What do you mean?"

He quickly undressed her pressing her against the mirror. "Don't think you're getting away with this."

"With what?"

"Using your body against me. I know there's something you're not telling me."

Her heart was pounding but not from his touch as she pressed a kiss to his lips.

Things steadily got worse as Sofia became more desperate to get her and the children out and Jamal let his mask slip more and more. He began nagging her about her duties as a wife and mother, working later shifts and berating her for not satisfying him the way she used to.

"I want a divorce Sofia, I already got the papers you just need to sign them." Hope filled Sofia for just a moment before he tore it away, "And I'll be taking Thomas."

"What? No! You can't take my son."

"He's my son too and I'm the one who can provide for him."

While Sofia crumbled beneath his words, Ava had a different approach. Seeing her mother pinned against the wall was too much and Ava snapped, biting his leg, chest and neck like a feral animal. Jamal finally pulled her off, yanking her off and tossing her back in the bedroom.

Jamal chuckled "You really are too easy. So weak you need a child to protect you. Don't worry, I won't break your pretty face like Don did. It'll be rather painless. Like drifting to sleep."

"Jamal please."

"I will say this for you, I will miss that pretty mouth."

Suddenly Jamal was pulled off her and she collapsed to the floor as someone forced Jamal against the wall. "Jameson Reed, you're under arrest for assault, attempted murder and purgery in 7 worlds. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be used against you."

Jameson was escourted off the premises with only a little fight. The Detective dropped to his knees at Sofia's side. "Hey Sof, can you sit up?"

"Nikolas?"

"It's okay, he's gone."

"But...how?"

"You never did bother to ask about my degree...or my career. A bit rude honestly."

She groaned as he sat her up and her eyes fell on the bookshelves, "I think he's keeping someone in there. I don't know if they're alive. It's been months!"

"Ok. I'll check it out" He scooped her up

"The kids."

"Safe. Sofia you're safe now."

"No, he's just another nightmare."

Nikolas carried her to the bedroom. Past the wedding pictures he wanted to just tear from the wall. He found the bedroom and lay her on the bed before returning to the bookshelf. It didn't take him long to find the book that triggered the mechanism and the room opened.

Ava had come out of her room again and watched as the door swung open. "Mr Nik?"

"Stay there kiddo."

"What's in there?"

"That's what I'm going to find out." He stepped toward the door. "Alright Mr. Reed. What exactly have you been hiding. Something incriminating I hope."

Nikolas had expected drugs, maybe weapons, perhaps files on those he'd done deals with. But this was so far beyond anything he could comprehend. He wouldn't know where to start with technology like this and the jars lining the ceiling gave him an errie feeling.

"What are you?"

Backstory

tw: divorce, drugs, child custody, emotional neglect, stroke/illness, violence, cheating mention, parental loss

Aiden was born an only child in Tacoma to an otherwise seemingly happy couple. His father was a land surveyor and his mother a realtor, which meant he never had to want for a thing in his life. This also meant that he had been primarily raised by a nanny in his formative years when their jobs ate up all their time. Attention, of all things, is what he hoped for most, but it was hard to complain to anyone when instead he got every new game console and iPhone as they released.

When Aiden was in the end of fifth grade, it came to light that his father was having an emotional affair with a coworker. Although nothing physical had happened between them, it was enough to spur a divorce. After the ink on the papers dried and his mother purchased a new home, she took Aiden to Fairford and transferred him to the middle school there.

Moving to a new town meant leaving any of the friends he had behind, and in his new school Aiden quickly became a problem. Halfway through the year he already faced two suspensions from violence and destruction of property, but his mother did very little to rectify his behavior. A slap on the wrist, and some hush hush money later, not even getting into trouble earned him her attention. It never did look good for the realtor whose son was sending kids home with broken fingers and bloodied noses.

On weekends and every other Wednesday, he took a bus back to Tacoma to spend time with his father once he hit the age of thirteen. There was never an argument on his father’s end about not seeing his son, and his mother didn’t want to put in the effort of driving back and forth at the time. It was only after he was old enough to travel on his own. Although mentally exhausting, there was no animosity toward his parents, from him or between each other. It’s almost as if the marriage had been done long before that the sting of an affair in the making was easy to shake off.

This does not mean Aiden didn’t get into his own fair share of trouble throughout middle or high school either. Skating by with C’s and D’s in high school while in trouble for truancy and fighting any other classmates simply looked at him the wrong way. He also had no issues with destroying lockers or breaking beakers in the science lab, so on and so forth. He was known for running his mouth too much which led him to get into many physical altercations, so he learned how to fight to defend himself.

Around his sophomore year in high school, his father suffered a stroke that left him partially paralyzed. It put an end to his career, Aiden took it upon himself to help take care of him on the weekends he went to visit. He became a barback in a local dive bar, but also partnered up with coworkers to distribute and sell marijuana to leave money in his apartment after visits.

Despite his mother’s push for him to go to college, all chances were dashed when his math professor in his senior year refused to pass him. He didn’t want summer school, and in a reactive rage, Aiden got ahold of a bat from the gymnasium and shattered the wind shield to that teacher’s car. Instant expulsion left him the option of taking the G.E.D., which he did, so he settled in working as he had been and helped to support the house and bills for his father.

His mother been distant enough from Aiden she never caught on to where his money was going. His father passed when he was twenty-two from causes related to the stroke. The loss wasn’t horribly difficult to get over. Aiden did grieve for a brief period, became a shut in for a few months at all the resentment for not truly knowing his father as a person despite doing all he could to financially help, but in the same breath battling with the guilt over the relief he felt over it.

By the age twenty-five, his mother gave him the boot. Aiden relocated from where she lives on the Coral Coast to downtown Fairford. He has long since quit the drug selling scene and used his restaurant experience to become a line cook at Juniper Grill. He is going through the motions at this point, just to keep his head above water.

HISTORY —

Aiden was born an only child in San Diego to an otherwise seemingly happy couple. His father was a land surveyor and his mother a realtor, which mean he never had to want for a thing in his life. This also meant that he had been primarily raised by a nanny in his formative years when their jobs ate up all their time. Attention, of all things, is what he hoped for most, but it was hard to complain to anyone when instead he got every new game console and iPhone as they released.

When Aiden was in fifth grade, it came to light his father was having a emotional affair with a coworker. Although nothing physical had happened between, it was enough to spur a divorce. After the ink on the papers dried and his mother purchased a new home, she took Aiden to Aurora Bay and transferred him to the middle school there.

Moving to a new town meant leaving any of the friends he had behind, and in his new school Aiden quickly became a problem. Halfway through the year he already faced two suspensions from violence and destruction of property, but his mother did very little to rectify his behavior. A slap on the wrist, and some hush hush money later, not even getting into trouble earned him her attention.

Weekends and every other Wednesday he took a bus back to San Diego to spend time with his father once he hit the age of thirteen. There was never an argument on his father's end about not seeing his son, and his mother didn't want to put in the effort of driving back and forth at the time. It was only after he was old enough to travel on his own. Although mentally exhausting, there was no animosity toward his parents, from him or between each other. It's almost as if the marriage had been done long before that the sting of an affair in the making was easy to shake off.

This does not mean Aiden didn't get into his own fair share of trouble through out middle or high school either. Skating by with C's and D's in high school while in trouble for truancy and fighting any other classmates simply looked at him the wrong way. He also had no issues with destroying lockers or breaking beakers in the science lab, so on and so forth. He was known for running his mouth too much which led him to get into many physical altercations, so he learned how to fight to defend himself.

Around his sophomore year in high school, his father suffered a stroke that left him partially paralyzed. It put an end to his career, Aiden took it upon himself to help take care of him the weekends he went to visit. Became a barback in a local dive bar, but also partnered up with coworkers to distribute and sell marijuana to leave money in his apartment.

Despite his mother's push for him to go to college, all chances were dashed when his math professor in his senior year refused to pass him. He didn't want summer school, and in a reactive rage, Aiden got ahold of a bat from the gymnasium and shattered the wind shield to that teacher's car. Instant expulsion left him the option of taking the G.E.D. which he did, so he settled in working as he had been and helped to support the house and bills for his father. (Note for me because I forget things - Aiden had been held back eighth grade year so he was 19 as a senior).

His mother been distant enough from Aiden she never caught on where his money was going. His father passed right before he turned twenty-two from causes spurred on by the stroke. The loss wasn't horribly difficult to get over. Aiden did grieve for a period of time, became a shut in for a few months at all the resentment for not really truly knowing his father as a person despite doing all he could to financially help, but in the same breath battling with the relief he felt over it.

Currently, he lives rent free with his mother in a house on Aurora Bay Drive, but she's cut him off from her finances. While he lives rent free and has a decent car she bought him for his sixteenth birthday, she's decided Aiden can provide for himself otherwise. Food, hygiene products, clothing, etc. all is on him. Keep his nose clean, stay out of trouble (which he does, for the most part), he quit the drug selling scene and used his restaurant experience to become a line cook. He is going through the motions at this point.

CONNECTIONS.

I am down for most connects other than end game romantic connections. one, for the fact Aiden is a tough one to earn love from, and two, I like to work on natural chemistry. I also don’t do any sort of pregnancy plots - scares, accidental, etc.

♡ @lucydriscoll - an unlikely friendship formed out of aiden's incessant need to break in the faces of bullies, the day he'd seen lucy being picked on something in him snapped and he came to her aid. it's been the theme of their friendship since, and he watches after her. maybe to the point of being smothering, but it is just habit at this point.

♡ @fionaosmvn - the first time aiden met fiona he'd been sure they wouldn't get alone well. yet, they meshed, and to this day she drags him about with only some reluctance. he won't admit it, but the fight is for show as he eventually relents. he might tell her that he doesn't like her, but in the same breath he'd commit atrocities to anyone who gives her a problem. (not in game currently, but still canon)

♡ @cricketcampbell - unexpectedly, aiden's developed a respect for her. at first, cricket had just been the personal chef his mother hired. a worker to pay no mind to, until he started working as a line cook. then of course he developed a curiosity in her work, and he likes to pick her brain. slyly, of course. he can't be so obvious it's a compliment.

♡ @silascody - ex-boss from when aiden was a runner. being older, silas had been someone aiden looked up to. the absence of any strong male figure in his life made it easy for him to do so, the respect he holds for him insurmountable. he'd admittedly felt a little lost when he stopped dealing, and more so when silas disappeared all those years. he looks at silas as some sort of psuedo-brother.

♡ @phoebekeller - ex from highschool, aiden met phoebe in detention. he may have been ahead of her in grade year, but that didn't mean anything. for whatever reason she saw something in him at the time, and God Aiden couldn't have been more grateful for a light to come into his life at the time. one that he regrettably snuffed out in just a few years when he decided to isolate. he knows she didn't deserve to be treated in such a way, and to this day he feels guilty over it and does hold onto some hope they can maybe, at some point, rebuild a friendship of sorts.

♡ @priyaxdesai - ex-customer from his high school years, aiden wouldn't exactly label her as a friend. simply a client and a familiar face who sought out his house to escape the suffocating routine of her parents' expectations. though without that job in motion anymore, as well as her disappearing from aurora bay, he's fallen off from her life. that's not to say he is itching to find out where she's gone, or what she's been up to.

♡ @mackmontgomery - mack is the equivalent to a weighted security blanket around aiden. for someone who couldn't give a rat's ass about anyone's opinion on him, the fact that aiden feels one hundred percent comfortable around mack means more than he'd ever verbally admit. that being said, aiden will do anything to preserve that.

♡ @ambivalenceshefelt - nikki's golden retriever energy doesn't always match well with the extreme feral possum energy of aiden's but he does think she is a sweetheart. he will answer her late night calls for food when she asks, assuming he's up to make the drive, and he can empathize with her on the topic of her mother setting expectations on her. bleh.

♡ @sagexwilliams - aiden likes to give sage shit just for the sake of it. he thinks she is bossy and demanding at work, but outside of it, he finds her amusing. so he's begun the meticulous process of peeling back her layers to figure out more about her. slowly, as he doesn't want to appear too eager.

♡ @katexharmon - aiden thinks kate is pretty, like how razor blades and sharp city outlines and brightly color poisonous plants are pretty. dangerous, and fun. he finds himself by her side when he's bored and itching to get up to no good, and destroying shit at the junkyard has become one of his favorite cathartic activities.

♡ @noralevin - hanging out under the bleachers, climbing up restricted fire escapes, getting high in the custodial closets of the school — all memories aiden can look back on fondly. that being said, when nora returned back to aurora bay, that old flame reawakened, and he hits her up with no question. he's glad she hasn't tried to shake him, because he's holding onto that nostalgic feeling with a white-knuckled grip.

♡ @atticus-cortes - after a disagreement over some classmate on atticus's sports team (involving loss of their player due to drug use from narcotics aiden provided), he and aiden had at it in the hallway. atticus landed an admittedly solid swing to aiden's face, but that didn't keep him from persisting in that brawl. feelings were left at mildly tolerant at best, until they both ended up working at the All Nighter in their young twenties. apparently, getting stoned and making weird snacks with the ingredients on hand was enough to mend their relationship.

♡ @astridlius - aiden would kick it with astrid during school hours, hang out under the bleachers and hide in custodial closets. he liked her, he really did. until he learned that his vandalism hadn't been found out by chance, and she'd been the one to tell the faculty he smashed his math teacher's windshield. he'd been angry then, and he's angry to this day, and blames his expulsion on her.

♡ @summersabella - if you ask aiden, he's not sure why his first instinct when he saw summer was to push her over before riding off on his bike, but it's spun off into a lifelong rivalry of sorts. oddly enough, there is no bad blood, but it's tradition, or whatever, so he keeps at it where he can. there's plenty of times she catches him off guard, and it keeps that spark alive.

Family law is complex and emotionally charged. A good family lawyer not only provides legal advice but also helps in carefully handling sensitive family matters. Whether it is a divorce case, property dispute or child custody battle, it is important to have a lawyer who understands both the legal framework and the emotional aspects.

Divorce is one of the most challenging decisions a person can make. Nidhi Rajoura & Associates specialises in divorce cases, ensuring that clients are well informed about their rights under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 or other personal laws.

A Guide to Family Law

Family law covers many legal problems that develop in domestic partnerships. This branch of law handles domestic relations and family-related issues, such as adoption, divorce, child custody, and marriage. Knowing something about family law will help a person to negotiate the legal requirements and complexity of family conflicts.

Family law fundamentally deals with marriage and divorce. The legal binding of two people results in rights and responsibilities between them. In contrast, divorce deals with matters including child custody, alimony, and property distribution. It formally terminates a marriage. Divorce proceedings are complex and the parties typically require legal advice to ensure fair results for both parties.

Essential elements of family law include support and custody of the children. It also encompasses where a child will reside and who will make crucial choices regarding their well-being when parents divorce. Usually, considering the child's age, health, and emotional attachments to both parents, courts look at the child's best interests. Child support guarantees that the non-custodial parent financially contributes to the child's development, paying for basic living requirements, health care, and education.

A further crucial feature of family law is adoption. Through this judicial procedure, people or couples can adopt a child who is not their biological offspring. Though they differ by state, adoption regulations usually require careful evaluation of the potential parents' capacity to offer a secure and nurturing home.

Family law also covers questions of guardianship, domestic abuse, and paternity. Often employed for young or intellectually disabled people, guardianship gives someone the legal right to look after another. Paternity laws identify a child's legal father, and may impact child support and custody arrangements, while domestic violence laws offer protection and assistance to those who are the target of abuse.

A person may navigate legally and emotionally complex family law issues on their own. However, consulting a licensed attorney well-versed in family law will help them make the best decisions and ensure that any court process safeguards their interests and rights. Knowing family law's foundations will enable anyone to handle and settle family legal matters more skillfully, promoting a safer and more peaceful home.

was that kathryn newton? oh no no, that was just cassandra lang, a canon character from marvel. they are twenty one years old, use she/her, and are aware that they are not actually from washington dc. too bad they can’t stray from this city for long.

how long has your character been here:

five or so years, her actual age is closer to like twenty three

what is your character’s job:

she's a biochem major, and works as an assistant in the research lab at her school. she also does moonlight as a vigilante, using her abilities to stop whatever crimes she can

where has your character been pulled from in their fandom:

she's up to date with the mcu, and has taken some comic influences as well to fill in the blanks!

has any magic affected your character:

nope, she's honestly solid

and any other information you might find useful for us and the other members to know:

like i said, cassie is a kind of mash up of mcu and comics because i adore the young avengers with all my soul, so here we go

she was born with a congenital heart defect, and took medication for it pretty much her whole life, and when she was very young, her father went to jail and her parents divorced. she didn't see her father very often, as her mother ended up with full custody, but she loved both her parents dearly

when her father was released, he became ant-man, and quickly made enemies, leading to her being held hostage by yellowjacket when she was a child, though her father defeated him and saved her, earning a place back in her life in her mother's eyes

she was able to spend time with her dad, growing close with him again up until the blip, when he vanished. she assumed he'd turned to dust, until he reappeared five years later, explaining he'd been stuck in the quantum realm

after everyone returned, cassie became fascinated with the pym particles and the quantum realm. hank allowed her to work in his lab, seeing that she was highly intelligent, and she managed to use the particles to cure her condition, while also unintentionally mutating herself and gaining her father's powers. she didn't tell scott, but designed a suit with hank's help, while also working on a quantum satellite on the side

unfortunately, the signal she sent into the quantum realm managed to reach kang, who opened a portal and forced her and her family inside. she was captured and tortured in an attempt to force her father to ally with kang, though they eventually defeated him, and returned home

cassie is an absolute menace, who uses her abilities for vigilante purposes, but also protesting and civil rights purposes. she's canonically used her tech to shrink down a police car to avoid them clearing out a homeless shelter. the girl has ended up in prison more than once, and she'll probably end up in there again

during her time acting as a superhero, she met up with many other superpowered teenagers, and they formed the young avengers. the rest of them became her family, and they fought together side by side for a while, until cassie was killed by doctor doom

in dc, she's alive again, and continuing her own research on pym particles as well as the properties of the city itself, while using her powers to make an attempt at stopping the disasters that happen around here, or at least saving people where she can

About Silje Ward, née Ejnarsdóttir.

Silje is pronounced as "seal-yah"

Goes by Ward for professional reasons; it's an aunt's surname as well.

sooo, the wife of do.ctor stra.nge in another dimension, probably.

born in Reykjavík, Iceland on June 6th, 1985 (depending), to Ejnar Jóhannson and Margrét Bjornsdóttir. an only child, but loved dearly.

loved archery and became very good at it. bowhunted quite often with her father.

also loved winter, the snow, etc quite a bit

fairly good childhood, was pretty close to both of her parents

lived in New York with her parents between the ages of 15-18, due to a work assignment for her father

decided to stay in the US to attend college, hoping to eventually get into medical school, while her parents moved back to Iceland

met stephen in senior year of college, had decided by then to study neuroscience rather than medicine

stayed in a relationship with him while he went to med school and she went to pursue her masters (at St. John's in Queens). had a courthouse wedding with him just after he graduated

she also went on to pursue her phd

didn't know he was cheating on her with christine for a long time

chose to forgive his dumb ass anyway

stayed with him while he built his career; she ended up getting a research job in a SHIELD division, basically as a neuropsychologist for baddies, but also doing general research (on aliens, superheroes, villains, etc)

had a pretty fractured relationship with stephen close to the time of his accident. she wasn't with him (basically told him to take christine to the conference oops), but was devastated

sort of rekindled their relationship in that she devoted a lot of time, mental energy, resources, etc. into helping him heal, even helping him look into alternative medicine

tw drugs/addiction: he'd developed an addiction to pain killers, and she helped him through that, though his infidelity (that had been okay for a while) was slowly killing her

because alternate dimension, loki had been captured and she was 'studying' him and his jotnar magic. tbh she was feeling pretty bad for him and was tinkering with the idea of freeing him. probably starting to develop an emotional affair oops

tbh the best thing stephe did was disappear on her for a year (to go find the ancient one, heal his hands, become a sorcerer, etc). when he did try to come back, she'd sold their flat and was basically living near her workplace, having been devoting all of her time into that to pretend she didn't have depression, also getting closer to loki... whom she had freed, but no one knew that (yet)

during stephen's absence, her remaining parent-- her father-- passed away. this was devastating for her, because they were very close, and if there was ever a time she needed her goddamn husband, it was then. but... he wasn't there. loki, however, was.

she basically dragged him with to Iceland to take care of estate stuff. and because this is my goddamn story, there was something left to her... specifically, a necklace with a pendant that resembled frost, wrapped in a piece of paper with old norse written on it. she had no idea what this was, hadn't seen it before, and didn't really know why it was left to her. kept it anyway.

loki sort of figured it out right away, but didn't say anything because why men?

a few weeks staying in Iceland was pretty uneventful, just sad. she does kiss the idiot for the first time though, sort of giving up on her marriage (not divorced yet tho)

one day, there are literal monsters on her parent's property, trying to eat her. what the fuck. turns out that necklace was calling to them-- with jotnar magic. loki spills the beans and she's like what the fuck.

remembers the note and asks loki, aloud, what the hell "burt til fjalla minna, heimili mitt í hæðinni, til dalanna og giljanna, tinda ljóssins!" means (away to my mountains, my home in the height, to the glens and the gorges, the summits of light!)

insert sailor moon esque transformation scene that i don't want to write atm, but she gains a frost-covered axe, magic arrows, some sick old norse armor, and bulks up because we stan the hulk and we stan jane fo.ster (thooor)

she's a reincarnation of the goddam jotunn goddess Skaði wtf

loki is all like, haha yeah, and she's like you didn't tell me??

so it turns out there are monsters that are attracted to her newfound magic, particularly beasts that had been slayed by Skadi. it's silje's problem now though

around this time, SHIELD knows she's the one who freed loki, so guess she doesn't have to work on monday

she eventually reunites with stephen after the events of the first dr st.range movie (still married), and omg he's not as douchey now?? he still has that stupid smile and wears his wedding band and wtf, she hates that she still loves him but she can't really trust him

and then there's loki....

more to be added when i find the rest of my notes rip

Although experts say that divorce is not the ultimate solution, it is just a way to get rid of mental trauma. It often hampers the happiness of kids because they have to deal with their emotions.

Mutual Consent

Adultery

How Does the Divorce Work with Kids?

After you file for divorce and try to end your marriage legally, it can put an impact on your kids. During the process of dissolving your marriage, they have to deal with their emotions. If they are minors, the court will decide based on certain factors whether the father or mother will have custody. In most cases, mothers win and take care of them.

If that’s the case, court might ask the father to provide child support until they reach a particular age. However, there are certain emergency orders that both parents have to obey. To make sure that you could protect your rights while filing a divorce, hiring a good civil litigation lawyer is suggested. Now, you can move forward with confidence with your hired lawyer.

Parental Responsibility After Divorce

It has been reported that many parents would like to have joint parental responsibility for kids’ care. Suppose you would like to keep joint parental responsibility to develop your children for tomorrow, you can sign the legal paperwork accordingly. In case you don’t want joint responsibility, you have to appeal for the same in court.

Now, several factors have been looked after to decide whether the father or mother could receive the entire responsibility of growing kids. In case the children reached the age of 12, their opinions also matter. The court will ask them whether they would like to stay with the mother or father. Based on this opinion, parental responsibility will be decided.

Protecting Kids’ Rights Before and After Divorce

Undoubtedly, it is a must to protect the rights of children. As a parent, you can’t just think about your own freedom whether you’re a mother or a father. Rather than scratching your head to identify how to approach, it is good to consult with one of the skilled family litigation lawyers to solve your queries. You will get to know the entire divorce process and how it works.

So, don’t rush in breaking your marriage when a professional could guide you in dissolving the same. Feel free to take your time in choosing the right lawyer and go ahead to protect your kids’ rights even if you don’t stay with them after a successful hearing. Hurry up!
