Little Disturbance

Summary: Alina and Aleksander are in a meeting, when you decide to disrupt it very, very, very politely. Which later leads to a nice, fluff-filled evening.

Darklina x Fem!Child!Reader

Warnings: None. Unless you count tooth-rotting fluff!

Age: 5

Note: For the sake of the story, Baghra is alive, and both the Darkling and Alina rule Ravka.

———

To be honest, sometimes your grandmother was a bit…dull. As much as you loved hanging out in her house, eating food every waking moment, it did get a bit boring. She had no interesting books, apart from Grisha hand manuals, and some books on lore so ancient it hadn’t been translated.

Granted, she told you stories of your father when he was younger, but even stories could keep a five year old entertained so much.

“Nana,” you said, looking up from your game with a few dolls Aleksander had made for you, “When can I meet Mama and Papa?”

Baghra, who was reading by the fireplace, replied, “They’re in a meeting, child. You are not to see them till the Palace’s dinner bell goes.”

“But I wanna check if they’re okay!” You whined, leaning forward to catch at her skirt with your small hands.

“If they weren’t okay, then we’d have known by know,” sighed the woman before nudging at your hands with her own. “Stop that fiddling, child.”

You did want to meet your parents, so you made a very logical decision when your grandmother wasn’t looking.

You stood up from the floor where you’d been playing and made a run for it.

You dashed down shortcuts and pathways, laughing at Baghra’s exclamations for you to stop.

You avoided Zoya, swerved around Genya, even tripped up poor Feydor, who was trying his best not to dirty his new boots, all to get to that meeting room.

You found the massive double doors which you’d been asked to never step inside of when they were closed, and pushed them open with all your might anyway, ignoring the guards who exclaimed at you to stop.

You went unnoticed as you closed the well-oiled door carefully, and you noticed your mother’s familiar kefta as well as the bun she wore whenever she had an official meeting.

You heard your father talking authoritatively and resisted the urge to run to him, and instead walked over to your mother.

Alina gasped softly upon feeling someone tug at her kefta sleeve, and laughed softly when she saw you grinning up at her. She quickly lifted you up and placed you on her lap such that you were facing her, asking in a low voice, “Did you sneak from Nana’s house all the way here?”

“Yes,” you grinned and nodded. “I escaped.”

“Oh, yes, my little escape artist,” she chuckled, kissing your nose. “Why? We’re you bored?”

“A little,” you nodded. “But I wanted to make sure you and Papa were okay!”

“Darling, if something happened to Mama and Papa, then you’d know immediately,” she said, turning you on her lap so that you faced the rest of the council members.

“I was missing you, Mama!” You whined, leaning into her.

“Alright, little one,” smiled Alina, squeezing you a little. “Be very quiet while this meeting goes on, okay?”

You nodded and listened to your father talking, catching his eye and smiling as he shot you a wink. He looked at Alina, who shook her head, then nodded at the board which had the map of Ravka on it.

One of the councilmen, Igor Romanov, raised his hand and inquired, “Er, sir, why is there a child in the room? I believe she is too young to be listening to this conversation and,” he glanced at Alina, who was coping at you as she let you play with her fingers, “Seems to be a bit of a distraction.”

“Councilman Romanov,” said your father, his face set like stone, “I appreciate your…concern, but as long as I am not distracted by the child, I don’t think any of you should pay her any mind.”

Feydor then burst into the room, panting as he apologised profusely, “I am so sorry, sir. I will escort her to her rooms if need be—“

“There will be no need, Feydor,” said Alina turning in her chair a little to face him. “Thank you.”

“Of course, my queen,” he bowed and excused himself.

“Now, as I was saying…” Aleksander’s voice continued what he’d been discussing earlier, and you slowly began to nod off in Alina’s arms, your father’s smooth baritone voice calming to your ears.

The meeting ended shortly, and Alina smiled and cooed at your sleeping figure, as your held her hand tightly as you did. Once the councilmen emptied out, Aleksander walked over and kissed his wife’s head, then yours, which startled you awake.

“Papa!” You squealed, reaching out to hug him.

“Hello, moya malenk’ya printessa (my little princess),” he smiled and lifted you off Alina’s lap, swinging you up and placing you back down again, earning a laugh from you. “How was your time with Nana?” He placed you on his hip, your mother walking beside him.

“A bit boring,” you admitted.

“And why did you come to the meeting room after Mama told you not to?” He asked, eyebrow raised, but a smile on his face.

“I wanted to make sure you were okay!” You said, leaning your head on his shoulder.

“I-“ he faltered for a moment, caught Alina’s eye, and proceeded to burst out laughing.

“Papa! It’s not funny!” You frowned. “Mama, tell him!”

“Aleksander,” said Alina, pausing her laughter and putting on a mock-serious glare. “Y/n is right. We could have been seriously injured. She can protect us, you know.”

Aleksander wiped a tear of laughter from his eye and said, “Ah, yes, of course my love. Indeed, indeed.”

The three of you went to the main palace, where you greeted the doormen happily, who simply bowed and stepped aside for you all to enter.

“Mama,” you asked, eyes on the doormen with their stony faces and blank eyes. “Why don’t they say hello back?”

“Oh, they’re not supposed to, little one,” Alina replied, gesturing for Aleksander to place you down. “There are rules for everything and everyone here.”

“That sounds boring,” you said, running around them. “I don’t like boring things.”

“Then you must bear with your Nana, because she loves you very much,” said your father, ruffling your hair. Alina gasped and hit him on his shoulder, earning an ‘ow’ from his end.

“That is your mother, Aleksander,” she scowled.

“Yes, yes, sorry, my love,” he nodded, rubbing the place where she’d hit him.

Alina scooped you up from where you were running around and said, “Someone needs to take a bath,” she placed you on her hip and smiled at you, “My little one smells like smoke and cloves. Did Nana decide to have you help her cooking lunch?”

You nodded, “Yes!” And giggled as you pulled out the pin which kept your mother’s hair up, earning a gasp from her when she took the pin from you.

“And I though I’d be the one to do that tonight,” Aleksander whispered in his wife’s ear, making a blush spread over her cheeks.

“Aleksander, please, there is a child present,” she chided.

She took you to their room, placing you on the bed and picking out a nightdress of your choice as Aleksander tickled and laughed with you.

“Thank god, no more meetings for another two days,” laughed Alina as she took you to the bathroom, Aleksander sitting on the bed, reading a book.

“Mama,” you said, reaching for the laces of your dress. “I heard from Genya that there’s going to be a travelling circus and carnival coming to the town tomorrow ! Can we go?”

Alina helped you with the laces and smiled, “Well, if you do your lessons properly tomorrow without trying to escape, then maybe we can go.”

“Yes!” You squealed, sitting in the tub and letting her bathe you quickly, singing a soft Ravkan song to keep you occupied.

“There,” she said, tying your hair in a braid. “Now my little one’s much fresher.”

You nodded and smiled, running into your parents’ bedroom, leaping on your father with a bright grin, making him laugh and place his book away.

“Mama said we can go to the circus tomorrow!” You squealed. “You’ll come with us, right?”

“Of course, little one,” he nodded, kissing your forehead. “Family day.”

“I’m gonna win a crow figurine this time for sure!” You said, turning your stag figurine in your hands, which Alina kept on the bedside table before you’d bathed.

“What all have you won so far?” He asked, picking you up and taking you to your room, Alina close behind as she talked in a hushed voice to a servant who’d handed her a letter.

You pointed at the shelf on your bookcase which was full of animal figurines from a long time of your father and mother helping you win them at every carnival which came to town.

“I’ve got a stag, a lion, a lynx…” you rambled on, naming every single animal on your shelf, placing the stag on its place carefully.

“What do you say to a puzzle before bed?” Your father asked after having listened to your long talk about different animals.

“Puzzle!” You grinned. Aleksander knew you loved puzzles. The picture ones or the brain teasers which one of his Durasts would make almost every day, you and him always sat and solved them together. If he couldn’t do it because of work, he’d solve two with you the next day.

He pulled out two paper packages from his kefta pockets, placing them in front of you. “Which one?” He asked with a smile.

You thought for a moment and pointed at the one on the left, which he handed to you, and took the right one for himself.

You opened it to find a simple cube of interlocking pieces, one of which you took out to disassemble the whole cube.

Alina sat next to you, pulling you into her lap as you started to figure out how to solve your puzzle.

Aleksander had a wooden six-point star, which he took apart and began to try and reassemble, while Alina and you both ganged up on him, her helping you with your puzzle, while Aleksander struggled with his.

“That is not fair, you cannot use your intellectual strength to defeat me!” Complained your father.

Someone knocked at the door, and Alina placed you off her lap to open it.

“Aleksander,” she said, seeing Feydor, “It’s for you.”

Aleksander placed down his puzzle and sighed, ruffling your hair as you continued to try solving your puzzle.

Alina sat back with you, listening to you talk about random things as you took apart the puzzle for what felt like the tenth time, grumbling in frustration.

“Papa,” you whined, “I can’t solve it!”

“Just a minute, moya malen’kya printessa,” he said, before glaring back at Feydor.

Alina noticed their interaction becoming more and more heated in whispers, and decided to step in.

“Is everything alright?” Asked the Sun Summoner, frowning slightly, standing next to Aleksander.

“I have to go to Novyi Zem,” he muttered. “Tonight. The governor needs me at a meeting for their economical security matters.”

“At this hour?” Asked Alina, her brow furrowing further. “Can’t it wait? You promised Y/n about the circus and carnival.”

“I’m afraid this matter is a bit too grave, and can’t be avoided,” sighed Aleksander. “And I think the two of us will have to go.”

“Sadly yes,” said Feydor. “The governor has requested both of you to be there.”

“Oh for Saints’ sake—“ scoffed Alina. “We have a child to take care of, doesn’t anyone understand that?”

“Nannies are something I can sugges—“ Feydor began, but was cut off by a glare from both your parents.

“I refuse to be some absent parent in my child’s life for the sake of convenience, Feydor,” said your father. “Inform the governor that Alina and I will be able to make it day after tomorrow, due to personal matters.”

“Mama…” you whined trudging over to Alina and tugging at her kefta, “I need help with my puzzle!”

“If you both could take this conversation outside, I’d appreciate it,” your mother said authoritatively. She took your hand and sat on the bed, helping you with your puzzle.

“Do you and Papa have to go again?” You asked, pouting as you looked at your mother with big, watery, e/c eyes.

“No, no,” she shook her head, pulling you into her lap for a cuddle. “We are not going anywhere, my love.”

You sniffled and buried your face in her now-open hair, your small hands fisting in her kefta’s soft fabric, relaxing a bit when she rubbed your back soothingly.

Aleksander rushed over after having told Feydor what to do, and immediately asked frantically, “What’s wrong, Y/n, my love?”

You mumbled and hid your face in Alina’s neck, and she explained that you were upset because she and him might have to go away for a trip again.

Your father took you in his lap and said, “I postponed the meeting to day after, so we can go to the carnival and get you your crow figure. We are going to have the best day in history, I promise you that.”

You nodded and yawned, nuzzling into him as he patted your back gently to lull you to sleep.

“She’s a Papa’s girl for sure,” laughed Alina, caressing your hair.

“Absolutely,” nodded Aleksander as he gently placed you down to lay on the bed.

Before they could leave, you caught Alina’s hand and opened your eyes with a pout.

“Mama,” you said tiredly, “Sing, please.”

Laughing softly, Alina lay beside you, propping herself up on her elbow as you curled up into her relaxing as she began to stroke your hair. On your other side sat your father, who’s hand you held firmly.

Alina began singing Ravkan lullabies, and Aleksander accompanied the ones he knew. You slowly fell asleep, and Aleksander soon realised he was the only one singing, as Alina, too, had fallen asleep, with you curled into her an her arm draped protectively across you.

He smiled and placed a blanket over the two of you, before pausing upon feeling your hand tighten over his. He lay down too, feeling warmth bloom in his chest as you snuggled closer to him.

And so, your evening concluded, with you asleep in your parents arms, a true image of tranquility.

HEADCANONS

The youngest Romanov son, Dmitri never had as much pressure put on him as his older siblings and was given a lot of freedom which formed the base of his personality. He is definitely the black horse and rebels often for the hell of it.

He was trained with the Russian military from an early age and is an excellent swordsman/soldier, sometimes acting more like a soldier often forgetting diplomacy and court protecol much preferring to speak his mind. He is hot tempered and can be very reckless to the chagrin of his advisors and the Russian courtiers.

He's never really given much thought to marriage but now that his brother is the Tsar and it is expected for him to marry for the sake of beneficial alliances, he's not too pleased but as a soldier he does have a great understanding of following orders.

CHILDHOOD SWEETHEART; Someone who grew up visiting/spending time with the Romanovs (could be from a close country/their parents could have had some kind of alliance) where they had the chance to meet and connect to the point where everyone who saw them thought they would become sweethearts (maybe they were? open to interpretation of character taking the wc)

PEN PAL; (female - royal or high ranking) Someone that Dmitri has written to honestly and openly from a young age after meeting at some kind of state visit/event. this person will know him well even if they haven't seen each other since.

LANGUAGES SPOKEN: Latin , English, French, Russian, German, Farsi

LIVING SPACE: The apartment & The Literary Pearl

BACKGROUND:

Elisabeth’s life had been an idealistic one, as an only child in the family she was doted on by her parents and uncle with all the affection and care one could bestow on a child. Her summers were spent in Scotland working playing in the fresh air while the rest of the year was life on the outskirts of London. However, walking home from school one day does she return to find an older boy in her kitchen. Sitting in her spot at the table as her father spoke quietly to him. She could see the tear stains left on his cheeks and as she approached does her mother gently tug her away and off to her bedroom for a talk.

That was how she first met her half brother, Stefan.

His mother had passed away suddenly and now needed family. She was told they were his family and that he’d be staying with them forever. For a moment she feared the change, feared the loss of her parents singular love and feared how this boy would be. He was indifferent to her and cold despite her best efforts to warm him to her. It isn't until after Stefan returns from military deployment, a decade after graduating high school, that the two begin to bond as brother and sister to develop a friendship and make up for lost time.

Meanwhile years would come and go and Liesel would find herself exploring her family’s history through journals and notes, inspiring a love of history and old novels. She’d later turn this fascination into a means of work as she collects and sells antique books to other dealers eventually running her own small bookstore in London; though, she finds herself traveling more often to search for rare books. Her life takes another twist when she’s contacted by a lawyer to discover she was left to inherit a jewelry box from an distant relative, a box filled with gems and jewelry dating back to the era of the Romanovs, leaving her to question how these valuables came to be in their family.

And so she continues to try and uncover the mystery, tragedy and the history of her family’s past and discovers along the way an older half brother, RAF fighter pilot, who had been given up for adoption during her father's early youth.

@moltengcld | Aleksander and Jacqueline, Late Evening at the Queen's Study

She is restless in the wake of the news. Furrowed brow and an unmoved scowl, as Jacqueline paces around the privacy of her study. With her guard, Theo, outside the door and all peering eyes absent. She's able to emit a low groan of frustration, with a hand on her growing stomach. "We should have sent them to the guillotine when we had a chance." Jacqueline informs Aleksander, as the two ruling monarchs linger in her study, speaking in quiet breaths. It's nearing impossible to have a conversation with Dennis ,that does not turn into an argument about their marriage. And as a result, she turns to Aleksander, for advice and conversation. True to his word, the Romanov's armies were key in keeping the Bourbon's in place "Now they are God knows where, planning heaven knows what." Shaking her head, she stills, flinching at the nausea. "And to top it off, I cannot keep food down for longer than a few hours."

( max irons, cis male, he/him, 36) ** ♔ announcing aleksander romanov,  the czar of russia! in a recent portrait they seem to resemble max irons. it is a miracle that he survived the last five years and for that reason, they are against the kingdoms working together. reflecting on them now, they remind me of blood on fresh snow, sharp blade, imperial easter eggs, fur trim.

Since becoming Tsar in his 20s, every year brings a tighter reign Aleksander has on his people and his family. Some describe him as vile and always plotting the next calculated power move to make Russia stronger. Aleksander is all about keeping a false illusion that all is well in his marriage, his family, and his country. He will deny outright truths, and by the end of discussion; have the other party convinced he knows better. Nothing could be further from the truth. Behind closed doors he cares little for his wife, their personalities always clashing. He is sure to let her know that he married her for Russia’s security; and the least of all love. On the outside, this Tsar is as religious and pious as his forefathers’ but the reality Aleksander regards the following of religion as reserved for the weak-minded. He is not above using it to further his power over his kingdom or his siblings. He might be outright dismissive of their feelings and plans their marriages for Russia’s future. 

Despite all of this strength of mind and power of will, he is relatively less controlling and more calm in the presence of nature. He enjoys equestrian hobbies and bestowing the few he has admiration for with elegant gifts.

ALEKSANDER KURNETSOV (Cupo asegurado)

Alexander Kurnetsov nació en Moscú en 1986, bisnieto de Fedor Kurnetsov, el fundador original de "Krovavyy Krug". Desde una edad temprana, Alexander vivió bajo la sombra de la caída de su familia, relegada a roles secundarios tras su derrota a manos de los Petrov. Su padre, amargado por la pérdida de poder, inculcó en Alexander un profundo resentimiento y un deseo ardiente de restaurar el honor de los Kurnetsov.

La muerte de su padre en un enfrentamiento con los Petrov cuando Alexander tenía 20 años, fue el catalizador para su determinación. Pasó años entrenando en combate cuerpo a cuerpo y estudiando las operaciones de la mafia, perfeccionando sus habilidades con la esperanza de un día desafiar a los Petrov. Alexander es un líder que inspira a sus seguidores con su valentía y dedicación a la causa de su familia.

Alexander finalmente encontró su oportunidad al aliarse con Alexei Romanov, formando una coalición para desafiar a Iván Petrov. Su victoria hace diez meses sobre Nikolai en el Círculo no solo le otorgó el liderazgo de "Krovavyy Krug", sino que también reivindicó el honor de los Kurnetsov. Ahora, al mando de la mafia, Alexander enfrenta el reto de consolidar su poder mientras moderniza y expande la organización, todo mientras vigila las intrigas internas y la amenaza constante de los Petrov.

The table looks perfect. Steve lights the second candle and steps back to look at the Thanksgiving spread, which could feed six or eight people instead of two. He doesn’t often cook more than the basics at home, but when he does, he goes all out. He’s looking forward to feeding Bucky a big, home-cooked meal, and persuading him to take some leftovers back with him tomorrow.

His precious boy should be here any minute; Bucky texted ten minutes ago that he was just leaving York Street to go over the bridge. And indeed, the buzz that indicates Bucky is here sounds through the apartment just as he’s putting the lighter away and turning down the music to provide pleasing background ambience.

Opening the front door, he waits, calmly excited, for the elevator. It arrives, the doors open…

…and Steve freezes.

Bucky shuffles toward him, and it’s clear that something is wrong.

Very wrong.

you know those stereotype groups your comfort characters fall into? i just realized that “former russian assassin/enemy/spy turned semi good with a soft spot for a kid” is mine

[myrsinemezzo]

That seems like...an unlikely take. Queer erasure is a real ass problem with some historians 🙄
