Arthur Streeton (Australian, 1867 - 1943) • Unknow title and date

[richmond-rex]

While at Dover, ahead of setting sail to France, [Henry VII] granted: 'Power to Arthur prince of Wales, duke of Cornwall and earl of Chester, as keeper of England the king's lieutenant there, to grant licensees to elect to conventual, but not cathedral, chapter; to assent to elections, make restitution of temporalities and receive fealties on elections of minor prelates, but not with respect to greater prelates, without the king's command: and to present to benefices not exceeding the taxation of 40 marks, churches of the taxation of 20 marks and under to which the chancellor is accostumed to present, being excepted'.

— Gareth Streeter, Arthur Prince of Wales: Henry VIII's Lost Brother

Some things 6-year-old Arthur Tudor did whilst his father was away in France between 9 October and 13 December 1492:

Signed at least eleven documents of official royal business

Authorised a series of pardons to men across the kingdom who had failed to appear before the magistrates' bench

Sorted the financial settlement of the dowager Viscountess of Lisle

Ordered sheriffs to arrest offenders in Essex

Placed a bond of recognisance on a group of rioters in Bristol

Ordered the arrest of a man who had wronged a Spanish merchant

Proper Nice - Chapter 13

Twenty Five candles.

After your run earlier, you made a trip to the store in an anxiety ridden haze. You had a hard time picking out exactly which candles to go with. You settled for twenty five vanilla, cream colored candles, all of various heights and sizes. It wasn’t the kind of fake vanilla scent that made you nauseous, but the kind that was noted in most feminine fragrances. Sensual. Sweet.

Now, you were standing in the middle of your apartment, wrapped in a towel just as you were the night that Arthur helped you move in, reveling at the placements of your unlit candles. Some were placed on your kitchen bar, your dining table, and your coffee table. You decided against placing them on your precious living room centerpiece - your bookshelf - knowing that with your bad luck, they might accidentally catch one of your plants or vinyls on fire.

You moved to the bedroom to see what they would look like as you entered. Candles were perched on top of the nightstand and your vanity, accompanying your makeup and makeup mirror. Three were placed on the dresser, all of different heights like Russian dolls. You unwrapped yourself and tossed the towel onto your bed.

After curling your hair into glossy, loose, vintage waves, you pinned one size back, flattering your jawline. When you were applying the finishing touches of your makeup, your hands started to tremble.

You looked over at the tumbling red satin that hung delicately from a black velvet hanger, hooked to the top edge of your bathroom door.

You stood bare before your dress, basking in its shine and flawless hems. Ishtar is the best. You ran your fingers along the bunched up fabric at the hips and your perfect red gel manicure scratched against the grain of the satin. Your cheeks burned as the corners of your lips were tempted to curl into a smile. You thought of Ishtar’s words from a few days before. He’s different, yes?

You dropped your hand to your side and moved to the dresser. Earlier that week, you had found time within your busy schedule to visit a high end boutique just outside of the city. The fact that you had hardly seen Arthur had motivated you even more to spend the money that was burning a hole in your pocket. You took out the lingerie and placed each piece on the bed - a red lacy bra with matching panties and a garter belt, with beige stockings. 

You’ve never made the effort for someone like this before, not even serious boyfriends that you dated in the past for extensive periods of time.

You dressed yourself in the lingerie, gently pulling up the fragile stockings as to not create runs in them, and cinched them to the dangling clasps of the garter belt. You put on your nude red bottomed heels & finally stepped into your dress - shimmying it upwards and holding your breath as you reached behind to pull up the zipper.

It was five minutes to 7pm and by Arthur’s track record, he would knock on your door at 7 on the spot. Hell, he might even be pacing around in the hallway.

You fastened your dangling earrings in as you walked towards the door. You extended your hand out to the knob and, before you could reach it, Arthur knocked.

You inhaled deeply through your nose before opening the door. Arthur was standing nervously with his hands behind his back. The truth was that you were just as nervous as him - if not more. It was hard to bear the thought that everything could change after tonight.

He was dressed in a rich red suit - a three piece paired with a striped tie and a cream button down shirt. His hair was styled in his signature loose waves and the color of his suit brought out his bright chartreuse eyes. You exhaled and relaxed your shoulders just at the sight of him. However, the sight of you seemed to have the opposite effect.

When he raised his eyes to look at you, he tensed up immediately and his eyes went wide. An event such as tonight would be intimidating and a sensory overload for anyone who met your family, let alone at a gala event. We’ll try to make the most of it, for now.

“Wow,” he whispered. “You look stunning.”

You rolled your eyes. “Thank you. You look perfect,” you beamed.

“Thank you…” He smiled sheepishly at the floor. “I got something for you.”

Before you could ask what? he withdrew his hands from behind his back to present a small bouquet of flowers - seven red roses.

“You deserve real ones.”

You gasped. “Oh, Arthur. Thank you so much.”

You inhaled their scent deeply before placing the bouquet on your kitchen counter and traded them for your evening clutch.

“Ready?” You asked.

“Absolutely.”

“Should we call a cab?” Arthur asked upon exiting the elevator. You turned your head to hide the smile on your face. You wouldn't dare to get in a cab with this gown on, but you weren’t going to say that. 

“No, I already called us a car.”

“Oh.”

When the two of you stepped through the front doors, Arthur quickened his pace so that he could open the car door for you, but your driver appeared from around the corner. As Arthur was about to reach for the handle, he stopped him. 

“Allow me, sir.”

“Oh. Thank you.” Arthur paused and glanced at you. He motioned with his hand for you to get settled in first. 

Arthur slid in after you and sat at a respectable distance away without looking in your direction. It’s amazing how someone can continue to amuse you with just the simplest gestures. 

The driver closed the door behind him before rounding the corner to his door. He got situated in his seat while you pulled out your phone to check it after it had buzzed.

See you later, bitch!

Sabrina. You huffed out a laugh as you replaced your phone into your clutch. You exhaled and rolled your neck in an effort to relax. You knew you had to say something - to at least warn Arthur about what he was about to get himself into. You were afraid that he wouldn't be interested anymore, not just in going to the gala but, being with you. Would he find you too unrelatable? 

The ironic thing is that you’ve never found someone as relatable as Arthur. It didn’t matter what background either of you came from. You felt as though he understood you more than anyone else on a level that couldn’t be articulated - and you were very afraid to lose that. But, the truth was a lot of people - not just guys - did not cared for your background. It was hardly your lifestyle choice, but when the dreaded moment came for someone to finally see where you truly came from, it made them uncomfortable. You understood though. Hardly anyone lived the way that your family did. It was the kind of lush life that people were sure it was unattainable.

You were so far removed from your privileged upbringing that you refused to accept any kind of help from your parents. You knew better. Your mother would hold it above your head, even if she was repaid twice over. 

And some previous lovers had come from almost the same upbringing as you, but it never made a difference. You thought that maybe if you gave those types of guys a chance that it would work. But, it didn’t. You couldn’t relate to them, ironically. The Wall Streeters, the trust fund babies, the Hampton dwellers. You couldn’t care less.

You reached over and placed your hand on top on his. He smiled up at you shyly. His hands were ice cold against your anxiously hot skin. You decided to change the subject in your mind. The two of you had plenty of time during this car ride - it wasn’t going to be a short one after all.

At the end of this, your family and what Arthur thought of you were the least of your worries, because there was something else that you still needed to tell him.

But, that too, could wait.

The glow of the traffic lights lit up Arthur’s face and the backseat in a wash of red. It occurred to you that you still knew nothing about this guy. “Can you tell me something?” You whispered.

Arthur peered up at you puzzlingly. “L-like what?”

You cleared your throat. “Sir, can you roll up the partition, please?”

“Yes, miss.” The driver obliged.

You looked back at Arthur. “Anything.”

-

Thank you guys for still keeping up! Read it on AO3 by the same name.

Denim buttermilk pearl rouge peach sapphire Is four too much?)

Denim- I love you!!

Buttermilk- I love seeing you on my dash!

Pearl- What’s your favorite piece you’ve written?

I’m not actually sure. For a long time A Slow Cruel Descent was my fav. But I’m also really fond of Ice because it ended up being a surprisingly evocative story despite just being a lil advent fic. And then Manacled is my baby that I’ve slaved over for so long now. But then Alexandria and The Seduction are both such fun, I loved writing the banter in them. I really can’t choose.

Rouge- What’s your favorite book?

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak and The Sparrow by Mary Doris Russel are two of my favs.

Peach- What’s your favorite author?

Gosh. I don’t know. Too many. In childhood Frances Hodgeson Burnett primarily. In my teens Charlotte Brontë, Bess Streeter Aldrich, Louisa May Alcott and Lucy Maude Montgomery, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and Agatha Christie. In adulthood Elena Ferrante, George RR Martin, Mary Whalen Turner, Maurice LeBlanc.

Sapphire- Do you believe in zodiac? What’s your sign?

Not particularly. I’m a Taurus.

Told to ‘Find Arthur,’ I Stumbled Upon My Future at the U.S. Open

By BY KURT STREETER from NYT Sports https://ift.tt/3BFfPCk via Blogger https://ift.tt/2WWHIY1

[richmond-rex]

At the end of May [1487], [Elizabeth of York] departed Kenilworth and headed to Farnham. With her husband's throne facing its gravest threat, her separation from her child must have been overwhelming. But there was more than just maternal concern. Ahead of the queen's departure, a detachment of the royal household was sent ahead to Romsey Abbey, eight miles north of the Solent. Historian David Starkey notes that they were probably under instruction to 'prepare an escape route abroad for the queen and prince if things went badly' [...] The evidence suggests that in the event of the king's death, Elizabeth was to take Arthur to the continent and establish a court in exile. As an infant, Arthur could do nothing to help his father directly. Yet, for as long as there was breath in his body, the hope of the Tudors could live beyond Henry. The fact that the perilous task of preserving the Tudor dynasty was bestowed on the queen shows how much trust already existed between the royal couple. As the years went by, it would become clear just how effective a partnership they had forged. Elizabeth's role in the crisis of 1487 shows that the foundations of the king and queen's relationship were already established.

Asks for writers, please! I actually want to ask every one of them, but - 3 (in general), 4 and 24 (for Manacled).

3 name three favorite writers

I have books I really love, but insofar as authors whose collective works I’ve read in entirety:

Min Jin Lee, Megan Whalen Turner, Bess Streeter Aldrich (her short stories in particular).

4 name three authors that were influential to your work and tell why?

Hmmm. Minae Mizumura. There is a sort of poetic brevity I find in the writing by some Japanese authors. It’s highly expressive without being overly descriptive. It reminds me of sumi-e painting, in which the blank space is part of the work, intended to leave space for the viewer’s imagination. It’s a sort of philosophical/cultural view that William Durant summarized very well:

“Nowhere else have writers been so expressively reticent. To write three pages about the West Wind is to show plebeian verbosity: the real artist must not so much think for the reader as lure him into active thought; he must seek and find one fresh perception that will arouse in the reader all the ideas and feelings that an Occidental poet insists on working out in self-centred and monopolistic detail.”

It’s not where I am, currently. But it’s the direction in which I aspire.

Mary Doria Russell. The Sparrow was the book I read right before I started writing. I think it really influenced Manacled, the two timelines are intertwined, rather than separate, but the dynamic of exploring the past with the shadow of knowing the future and the dynamic of a story built with details and small moments and decisions that all come together to entwine into a climax, has had a significant impact on the design of Manacled’s plot.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I grew up reading and rereading The Complete Works of Sherlock Holmes every year. I’ve always loved mysteries, all the little hints scattered throughout a story that slowly evolve into something clever and unexpected.

24. favorite scene you’ve ever written

I really loved Draco’s monologue in chapter 51. After such a long time crafting this incredibly mercurial and enigmatic character, I felt like that was the first time readers saw a fuller picture of him when he wasn’t drunk or having an emotional breakdown. The scene was drafted almost exactly it is in published form. I never even really revised it. It just happened. It was such a culmination of his character and a mixture of the person he is and who he once was. I was really pleased with how it turned out.

I also really enjoyed writing Draco’s appearance on the battlefield. Although I wrote that scene a really long time ago. It was quite fun to finally get to bring him out. There’s been such a long period of “Draco Malfoy is dangerous and powerful” based on hearsay. So to finally depict it, and in a scene where he isn’t holding back at all—it was quite fun.
