For the love of Mary (Part One)

Now Mary's romantic relationships are very minimal because this girl has high standards 🙄 😒 but they're very significant to how she acts at times.

Thank you so much to @aria-ashryver for letting me use Viktor!

❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Viktor Ivanov-

(The one who got away)

Viktor was Mary's first relationship. They met while he was an exchange student in New Orleans for Mary's high school music program. Viktor approached her first and Mary being the bougie girl she is, rejected him many times, finding him annoying. Viktor wooed her for weeks and she finally said yes to a date which went well.

They became an item and even though Mary's friends side-eyed her for dating a white guy, Mary didn't care as Viktor spoiled her rotten: buying flowers, paying for dates and painting portraits of her ("Paint me like I'm one of your French girls.") - all of it.

Because Mary had rejected him for weeks, they didn't have much time together like Mary thought they did. And when Viktor leaves to go back to New Zealand, Mary is heartbroken.

After that relationship, Mary decided to not be too judgmental of someone quickly as she realized that would waste hers and their time.

❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Blaine Hayes-

(The Prime Minister's son)

[This is the Black male!Blaine]

These two met when the Prime Minister of Ardona came to America and was visiting Miami for Carnival (The Caribbean Carnival). Mary was there for Carnival too and she was visiting family with her grandparents. She and Blaine met at a J'ouvert festival and they hit it off.

Pictures of them wining and grinding on each other still go viral in Ardona so Mary is famous there, which she pleased about.

Unfortunately for Mary, Blaine wasn't as romantic as Viktor but she took in stride as at least he paid for the dates. She met his parents too; his mother didn't like her at all as she thought Mary was a gold-digger and his father didn't care. Mary was hurt by that and she felt worthless.

Sadly, Blaine regarded the relationship as casual and unserious, much to Mary's anger. He broke up with her, telling her that he had to date someone more on his level and someone who can be a 'quiet trophy wife'. Mary was devastated and in revenge, she trashed his car. Luckily, Blaine didn't charge her for vandalism but she was banned from Ardona for ten years. And when Blaine's next girlfriend was revealed to be a white girl (the same girl he previously dated before he started dating Foreign Affairs MC), Mary is outraged in a Angela Bassett in Waiting to Exhale type of rage.

In this relationship, Mary learned how to understand her worth and to not be a doormat for anyone.

❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Roger Hart-

(Trash)

He was her last relationship before Cas and Gabe. It was roughly two months and it was a lot because Caleb wanted to have sex but Mary wasn't ready yet. She was down for some hand and mouth stuff but not the actual thing.

Unfortunately, Caleb ended up getting sex from Mary's so-called best friend Fiona and Mary was pissed. The two girls ended up getting into a fight before their high school graduation.

Mary broke up with Roger and the tension is unresolved as Mary ended up moving to Crimson Beech.

~~~

That's it for Part One! The next part is for Cas and Gabe which will be very heavy.

ironically as arguably the most overtly political book on choices, foreign affairs has the least substantial things to say about anything political at all. just absolute liberal garbage. imo they should've taken a more satirical route with it criticizing politics but it was too wrapped up in this shallow coming-of-age story to actually say anything good - case in point how blaine's whitewashing of ardona's imperial past is treated like it's nothing, like it's just a little quirk. unironically, queen b has more substantial things to say about the institution of the academe and universities than foreign affairs does.

where miss featherington would surly have penelope speaking with any gentleman possible at the letting out of the show, she found her eyes wondering around the room, currently uninterested in the post opera socializing, hoping, soon, that the family would return home so that she might reflect on the music she had just heard, and read her book aside her favorite viewing window. guests move through crowds. at a point, penelope has to make herself even smaller to avoid hands and elbows. she backs up against the railing, sliding out from the group and strolling towards a rather empty part of the corridor. she understands why it is more vacant than the other parts of the hall, when eyes land on princess ann of ardona. 'your highness!' penelope exclaims, giving a deep courtesy, trying to cover the way she stumbles on the way back up. her smile is nervous, brows slightly pinched. she was barely used to talking to the normal lords and ladies of the ton, let alone a royal. her cheeks flush. 'did you enjoy the opera? i found it rather wonderful, myself,' @pajanyas / sc.

ann is still the crown princess of her native ardona, but she is embarking on a tour of europe, ostensibly to foster good relations and to introduce herself to the other royals of the continent, the majority of which are relations of varying degrees. the true purpose of her travels is so that she may improve her own relations with fellow royalty, and ideally, find a husband who may help her rule when the time comes.

twenty four at the time of the first series, in 1813. her family have been ruling ardona for a little over four hundred years at this stage.

while she greatly enjoys being able to see other kingdoms and nations, she loathes the constant surveillance that she is under from members of her royal household. there is nothing she would love more than to let her hair down and enjoy herself, but it is hardly considered appropriate for a future queen.

she adores attending operas and plays whenever she has a chance to, and has sparked some controversy by insisting on meeting the actors after their performances, so as to convey her appreciation towards their talent and ability, social reputations notwithstanding.

has a little phalène (dropped ear variant of the papillon) that she brought with her from home, named orwell.

though it is treated as top secret and not something that anyone ought to find out, ann struggles massively with what is termed simply as melancholia. for the most part, she is successful in masking it while in public, but in private it flares up and she can become either despondent or frenzied. when this happens, she is often secluded for a short time and dosed with laudanum (there was a time where leeches were applied on a semi-regular basis, but thankfully, that was dismissed as an unhelpful remedy).

according to the choices app there are 14 extra monarchies in europe

monterre, ismar, drakovia, cordonia, auvernal, monterisso, rutherland, naporvie, esherstein, ithanstan, ardona, pavadena, drivosa, ulmeria

they aren’t even trying with these names lmao

19, 26, and 36 for the relationships asks

im answering for blaine/kennedy bc ive done similar ones for j/b before but feel free to ask and i can add them!!

19. How do they deal with being away from each other for a long time?

lots and lots of phone calls. theyre not really the private jet types (they know how bad it is for the environment and do not want to contribute) so when they do visit each other, especially for the summer when theyre both in their respective countries, they try to fly commercial if they can (much to the dismay of their security teams). for the most part though its just consistent texts and video calls. and ofc watching the other during interviews and such and immediately texting after to make fun of them or various other unnecessary comments <3

26. How do they comfort each other?

mostly downtime and just,, silently being together. if its some really rough shit going on w their families or in the press, occasionally they do getaways/vacays, but thats not always the easiest considering how much security and clearance they need to get beforehand (i do have a little fic going rn about how they sneak off for a weekend alone. like,, whole ass heist mission). but anyway for the most part its just being there for each other but not being overbearing. its more silent understanding than anything

36. How’d they meet each other’s families?

okay okay so kennedy met blaines fam when their mom was first elected. blaine was being his broody little teenage self and refused to show face at the entire event, but kennedy at least got to meet his mom, dad, and sister. they were,, not very pleasant towards them, their mom, or their brother (his sister was better but quiet). as for official meeting, blaine met kennedys mom at parents weekened, and the rest of their siblings later on after they were out to the public at a charity event for one of cal's (kennedys older brothers) organizations. kennedy got to meet the rest of blaines fam (after parents weekend) on a weekend trip to ardona after the book ended :)

Happy new year!

Thank you for still supporting the fanfic!

[doggirling]

finally posting starstruck's staple doggirl... i am so fake i call myself doggirling yet i dont post my main dog lady </3

this is minnie ✌️ a star warrior who took in ricky and raised him for over a decade after he ran away from home (at the request of his big sister, mallory, who she was dating). following an... unfortunate incident that forced ricky to leave her behind presumably for dead, she was found and rescued by sir arthur + co and joined his post-war team once they realized she was a star warrior. serves as the team's jack of all trades, but usually does mechanic/engineering work alongside galahad. while she's loyal and focused on her duties, she does still try to search for ricky's whereabouts whenever she can.

[gutsfics]

the next president of Rutherland? i don't have a name for her yet

she spends her first term working with the prime minister of Ardona to ensure the peace between their countries isn't temporary

before becoming president, she was the mayor of a small town that was deeply effected by the war. she ran her campaign on a platform of "the strong protect the weak, so we must do what we can to protect our weak not by attacking others but by ensuring the health and safty of those that need it". she didn't outright say she wanted to realocate military budget but it is what she was planning lol

anyway i used the plus sized body for Rowan ILW to make her

anyway since one of the Rutherland candidates had to drop out of the race for Crime Reasons and the other one was a shitty enough president that her fucking child having consentual sex with their partner caused a national outrage, the president of Rutherland sworn into office post the events of Foreign Affairs was a third party far left candidate bc the vote was split enough between the other two that they just happened to win

[thecapturedafrique]

People think Rutherland and their conflict with Ardona is Haiti to France but I promise you we are America to Britain.
