dagmar be honest... do you think princess zosia is pretty 👉👈

"Pretty is not a word I tend to use. I believe there are many words better suited to describing the princess- she is brave and strong. She is skilled with a blade and someone I would rather on my side in a fight than against me. Zosia is intelligent and is someone I am lucky to consider a friend, these are all traits I admire much more than mere prettiness- and yes she's very pretty."

💧 DROPLET - random angst headcanon

all he gets is angst headcannons time to find one i have not shared... Alexandre often feels adrift- as if time is passing him by and he cannot keep up. He loves his siblings but has a hard time seeing them as adults- he left home at twenty, his siblings ranging in age from close to his to five. He worries he does not see them often enough- and in the past few years each time he returns to his family home there is a deep feeling of guilt he cannot control. He sees his nieces and nephews, the way his parents interact with them, his siblings happy- and he tries to shove down thoughts of his own son, who will never meet this family. Who does not know who he is. Who he does not speak to. He holds one of his sibling's children but he has never held his own offspring. And his visits are short. Alexandre returns to court, returns to his duty, to his spot on the sidelines.

❤️ RED HEART - their love language(s)?

Antonia's main love language is quality time. Being in the company of those she cares about- family, friends, Elisa. As a child she would sit on the floor near her father's desk and quietly play while he worked. Now she's happy to sit in a room with her fiancee, each doing their own little thing- as long as Antonia can glance up to see her. The finding time no matter how busy to just... be near.

🔥 FIRE - do they have any self destructive tendencies? what habits do they have that hinder them from becoming their best self?

oh we know there are a fair few. When Dagmar is in pain they isolate themself- they pull away from those around them. When Hagen died she did it physically as well as emotionally, near locking herself in her room until Anneliese was born, giving the excuse that confinement was for the safety of the baby. They are still trying to find their footing in this new role- the first part of her life she was identified as her father's daughter, the second part as queen consort (which at it's core... is being the king's wife, is it not?), and now? She is unsure who to be. Politics used to be a game, and now it is exhausting. She has little emotional intelligence- she struggles to understand her own feelings, why she feels this way, and as an extention does not know how to ask for help. There is anger and sadness and a deep sense of injustice at the world. Now that she's looking back on her life, dissecting everything, it is just making it worse in a way. It's where you get her mood swings, where one moment she is praising her father the next demonizing him. Being in her nihilism era means she's being more impulsive than ever. She cannot help but say things she should not. They trust very few- which just leads to more loneliness and self-isolaton. And the circle that she trusts seems to grow smaller and smaller. The past year has just been one giant breakdown. A true show of all her self-destructive tendencies and worst traits. Her competitive nature has turned into a craving for revenge justice. Her tongue in cheek political banter has turned into rude comments.

💖 SPARKLING HEART - are they a subtle or a showy lover?

Dorothea is quite showy. She constantly has a hand on people she cares about and Sigge & Jian get the worst of it obviously. Holding their arms, taking their hands, fixing their hair, a hand on their back. Any excuse she can to fix how their clothes are sitting. Does not know how to keep her hands to herself. She likes little things where the three of them match- perhaps it is all sharing the same trim on their outfits, the same buttons. The fabric of one of their shirts used to cover the buttons on the other used for her underskirt. She loves fully, with her entire being- and her go to way of showing affection is through touch.

The World Was Made By Gran Gran’s Face

Summary: In the Southern Water Tribe, elders were the heart of family. There is no paper or books to record history, songs, culture, and the knowledge of the world so memory and skill of tongue were everything. Those with the longest memories were guides when it came to traversing the terrain, understanding the paths of prey, and the way of the spirits. Elders were the ones who shaped the worldview of the younger generation. They told the tribe what was and what wasn’t. Or, Zuko grabs Gran Gran and Sokka loses hope for the world.

dagmar brosca for otp meme !!

ask me abt my ships !!

1. who pulls the other closer while sleeping?

probably zevran ? dagmar’s not a very cuddly sleeper, and she sorta sleeps like a rock, so he’ll roll over in the middle of the night and just tuck her into his side

2. how do they wake up next to each other? ex - tangled in each other’s arms? is one falling off the bed? etc.

yeah, usually dagmar’s tucked into him somehow. once or twice she’s woken up w either his hair in her mouth or his elbow in her face and she’s like babe. babe wake up. why are u like this

3. what movie do they watch when they both had a bad day and just want to turn off their brains for a little while?

a thriller of some kind probably. zevran likes to try and guess the endings, and the fast pace keeps dagmar occupied and out of her head, which she likes

4. who picks something up, says a pun with the object then laughs as if it’s the funniest thing they ever heard?

zevran !!!!! he doesnt do it that often tho. dagmar’s initial reaction is like. her eyes are laughing, but her face is blank as stone. zev always says it again, once or twice, his smirk spreading, until she huffs a laugh and looks away

5. how do they hype one another up?

dagmar has a kinda fucked up image of herself and her appearance for a lot of reasons, and she has a lot of trauma around her own ??? sexualisation ??? i guess ??? so if zev is hyping up her appearance, he learns to do it gently, teasing her lightly abt her pretty eyes or tracing her casteless brand very sweetly. it’s adorable

she like... doesnt hype zevran up in the typical way. shes very matter-of-fact abt her thoughts abt him --- which are all very positive, dont get me wrong, he knows she adores him, shes just not big into verbal affection --- so she’d maybe be like “u kno i think ur hot. shut up” LMAO. if hes ever like. in need of being hyped up shes like “u got this obviously why is that even in question”

6. when one of them gets a new outfit, how does the other react?

zev’s always like ‘is this new ??? it looks ravishing, do come take it off for me mi amor’ even if it’s like....... such a ridiculous higgldy-piggldy outfit. like she can be wearing armour made up of three different types of armour and hes like WOWZA

he once starts wearing a shirt cut to show his entire fuckin chest and dagmar’s like ‘not that i dont appreciate the view but is that rly practical ??? ur gonna get stabbed. idiot’ but otherwise she wont rly react ???? shes not big into fashion lmAO

7. who tries to playfully scare the other person and who always knows where the other person is?

zev does it sometimes. hes very good at sneaking up on her, too. but it’s small scares; he doesn’t try and massively freak her out ever. theyre both probably very aware of where the other is, all the time, bcos theyre protective and wanna look out for each other

8. when they grocery shop, what is one section they love to playfully mess around in and why?

zev will mess around in every section, tbh ???? they’ll both mess around in the spirits section and do impressions of Very Serious Wine Critics in the wine section

9. when their partner has a bad day, what is something the other picks up to try and make their day a little better? ex - fast food, flowers, a punny card, etc.

dagmar brings him pretty, shiny things. usually jewellery of some sort; gifts are her love language, and she knows he loves that shit, so she’ll bring him a lot like ‘pls cheer up i love u’. on the other hand, zev knows she hates that kind of waste of money, so he’ll do little things to cheer her up; bring her flowers, or offer to do one of her chores around the camp, etc

10. who runs up and hugs their partner while the other catches them?

dagmar isnt generally the type to throw herself at him, but when theres been times shes been very worried abt him, she’ll hurl her entire body his way in relief. once or twice, shes done it when he’s been injured, and hes like i love u but ow

11. what song reminds them of each other?

any time dagmar hears a bawdy tavern tune she thinks of him. usually he tries to drag her into dancing w him when those are being sung. theres a few ballads that make him think of her, too, probably; slow, sad, but oddly beautiful things. and also once she’s died, there’s obviously songs abt the hero of ferelden, so he hears those and tries not to cry :)))

12. who presses their nose against their partner’s cheek before kissing them?

dagmar 🥺 shes rly soft w him. she’ll also kiss his nose and the tattoo on his face all the time

13. what small quirks do they love about each other?

idk if this counts as a ‘quirk’ but zev rly loves the way she smells ?? which sounds bizarre but shes very comforting to him. she smells of rain, sorta, and sometimes blood and sweat, but also a little bit like pansies and just.... that undefinable smell of a summer night ??? he loves it

dagmar rly loves the way he smiles when hes half-asleep, bcos it’s teasing, but it’s soft in a way he only sometimes is when hes fully conscious. it’s just like.... gentle and loving and warm, and it makes her feel very light and safe

14. who accidentally snorts when they laugh and that makes both of them laugh harder?

dagmar !!!!!! the first time zev makes her laugh so hard she snorts hes literally blown away tho he has to take a moment to stare at her. but then he joins in

15. what are somethings that they do for one another because they know their partner hates it? ex- do the dishes, phones to make an order, talks to sales clerk. etc

zevran will help her take her tent down, bcos the higher bits are a lil hard for her, given her size. she gets so frustrated w it that hes like “ok let me do it”. dagmar will stitch up tears in his clothing bcos he’s less than brilliant w a needle, not that he’d ever admit it

4. Going for an incredibly late night walk. NO REVERSAL ( redundant! )

@legacybroke + this meme (accepting)

When the bauble glows blue, it’s a signal to meet up with her contact.

It beams turquoise in the early afternoon and Samar handles her obligations with care to ensure no one has cause to bother her in the evening. Then, just before dinner it’s orange, calling off the rendezvous. She picks at her pheasant with little appetite and growing apprehension at the thought of what might have happened to her fellow partisans, knowing she likely won’t find out for some time. Long after the last servant is asleep she creeps restless out of her chambers and out into the royal gardens, onto the path which snakes out into the woods. In the pale moonlight she wanders and thinks about how many people starve in the dungeons for illegally hunting the very sort of pheasant she declined to eat tonight.

There’s a sharp sting at the base of her neck and when she touches it her fingers come back with a mixture of blood and ink. A prolonged buzz confirms the fear — her bee tattoo is trying to warn her she’s not alone. She waits for the defensive magic to pool in her palms, or for an assassin’s arrow to strike but…nothing happens. There’s no perceptible change in her aura, and yet that sense of something both anticlimactic and inscrutable feels in and of itself familiar. Reflexively, her thumb goes to her wrist where her pulse is already slowing to its regular pace. Samar grinds her heels into the earth and pivots, aiming her voice at some unseen point in the darkness. It doesn’t matter — Sir Reginald the Red will hear her.

          “The dozen knights vying to become my personal bodyguard will be gutted to hear you’ve taken it upon yourself to fill the role.” That’s an understatement. She’s lost track of how many hopefuls she’s rejected, dragging out the process over the last few months. Petty dismissals, too: Jonah’s armor clangs too loudly when he walks, Dagmar chews with her mouth open. The royal council is getting rather vexed with her pickiness. It’s all a stalling tactic; any guard she could actually trust would be making themselves an accomplice to treason, and Samar can’t bear the notion. Then again, perhaps they’re finally fed up enough to make the decision for her. Of course, she can’t ask him outright if someone hired him to follow her. If that’s the case, he’d have every reason to lie. And if their meeting is mere happenstance, she’d be all but admitting to hiding something. So it’s back to their old games. 

           “Did you mean to find me, or were you simply admiring the night-blooms?” Hands clasped in front of her, she waits.

Trashland!Dom for the ask meme! (Well, not sure if there are any major differences from the original besides Lesbian, but figure I should specify, yeah?)

yeah that’s pretty much it lmao. and i default to the current versions anyway asdfgfd

   01. Full name: Dagmar Abigail Dorfmeister (goes by Dom because there’s too many non-germans around and because it sounds vaguely sinister but also friendly at the same time)

   02. Best friend: she considers sazabi, granox and grappler to all be her best friends.

   03. Sexuality: lesbian. and she prefers it to the word “gay”

   04. Favorite color: purple, especially if it’s purple camo lol

   05. Relationship status: in a relationship with sazabi :^)

   06. Ideal mate: she literally never even thought about that but like. it would be someone who is also a best friend and wow that happened, there u go

   08. Favorite food: WAFFLES

   09. Crushes: sazabi and probably any other butch woman she sees

   10. Favorite music: i haven’t thought about this yet either asdfgfd i’m really weird about this i can’t like Decide on something my character likes, the idea has to come naturally. does that even make sense. however she fucking loves caramelldansen. best song ever

   11. Biggest fear: before it was being lonely forever, now it is losing all the friends she had... which is kind of the same tbh

   12. Biggest fantasy: whatever it is no doubt involves explosions of some type

   13. Bad habits: not taking hints, being too up in people’s personal space, leaving stuff all over the floor asdfghgf

   14. Biggest regret: probably something related to the fact it took her until she was ~40 to realise she was a lesbian

   15. Best kept secrets: she’s pretty bad at keeping secrets lmao but she may be one of the few people to know grappler is trans. and she’ll never tell

   16. Last thought: “oh no. where did i leave that grenade.”

   17. Worst romantic experience: the only one she had prior to sazabi which was some shitheaded boy from high school who was doing it for a laugh. (he got his car blown up later)

   18. Biggest insecurity: not being able to tell if people like her or not and also her height.

   19. Weapon of choice: anything so long as it’s loud. will take anything explosive first

   20. Role Model: her dad (possibly the only Good dad of the main 8 in trashland)

tag dump part 1

[liesthehead]

to dagmar: be honest, is something going on between you and the english prince?

"They have the deportment of a twig- whatever could go on between us? You look at them wrong and they might break. Besides I am sure neither of us would be content with any sort of arrangement."

[liesthehead]

dagmar is a true queen in every sense of the word

"I am not sure what you mean- I have been queen consort and queen dowager-" They do not mention which they had preferred- title is just one thing on the long list of things that had changed. "So yes, I am a queen, even though I am no longer the queen."

[liesthehead]

Dagmar you did not want children

"Having reservations does not mean you do not want something." They might have had their hesitations. Fears and worries associated with having a baby- it had taken years to come around to the idea. They had decided at the beginning of their marriage not to have children simply out of duty, but to wait until both of them were ready. "I think that even had- well, Anneliese would have remained my sole child no matter the circumstances." In another life she might have had no more than one other. A life where her husband had met their daughter, where the first months of her life had not been shrouded in grief and misery. Where the months of discomfort had been worth it. Where she could look at the infant and not search for the ghost of a man who would never meet her. As the world was, Anneliese would forever be her sole heir, her only child. "My daughter was wanted," she proclaimed firmly.

[liesthehead]

Dagmar, you’re more lonely than you let on.

"Of course I am lonely. Is there another word one would use to describe being alone?" She had spent much of her life in companionship, in partnership- and it had all left her in minutes. Dagmar had lost not only her husband but her closest friend and dearest confidant. A gaping wound over six feet tall lived within her heart. All things good, all things kind about Dagmar had been buried alongside him. "I am alone and I shall remain alone for the rest of my life."

[liesthehead]

🌙 dagmar.

🌙 - What’s their sleep schedule like?

haha what's sleep?

Dagmar has always been a morning person- since she was a child she would wake with the sun or even before. It made her feel productive to start her days so early.

Since her daughter was born Dagmar has had trouble falling asleep- you can find them at odd hours of the night walking the halls in hopes that it will help relax them so they might fall asleep (rarely does it work) or a candle burning in her chamber until well after midnight.

Sleep is fitful and does not last very long. They awake in the night and struggle to sleep again. Even the baby princess sleeps better than the dowager queen- though, like throughout most of the day, the baby spends her nights being cared for by her nurse or governess. Dagmar on the other hand spends her nights alone, which even a year later, is hard to get used to.

[liesthehead]

red for dagmar

tws: hunting, animal death, blood

She cannot be more than eight. Never before has she aimed at something so large, something so alive. "The heart, Dagmar." It's scarcely a whisper, this reminder from her father. Barely audible above the sound of the wind. Brown eyes narrow, watching as the deer takes a step. She pulls the drawstring as far as she can, feels it in her shoulders. The arrow flies and she releases her breath when it makes its mark.

When she sees it up close, after following where it sprinted off to before falling to the ground, she's surprised at just how massive it is. Dagmar has seen fallen game before- this is hardly her first hunt- but it is the first time such a large creature was felled by an arrow a her hand.

It is her father who dips his fingers in the wound. Bjørn takes the creature's lifesblood on his hand, pulls his daughter near, and her face with it. She can smell it, feel the warmth still, the way it sticks to her skin. She is grateful now that her mother had spent the time in early morning before the hunting party had left pulling Dagmar's hair away from her face, secured tightly under her linen coif.

Red. The same blood on her face, on her father's hand, spilling to the ground. She is struck by the brightness. How little it can take, to bring down something so large, even when she was so small.

Red has always meant blood- but mostly it had meant sport, game, food and fur.

😨 FEARFUL ( all muses )

😨 FEARFUL - when scared, do they go into “flight” or “fight”?

Antonia: flight (why she's running away when she sees a Pole)

Alexandre: fight (those swords ain't just for show)

Dagmar: fight (preferably from a distance with a bow but they do carry a dagger everywhere so)

Dorothea: fight (first she goes "be bitch" then fight if that doesn't work <3 )

Frederik: flight (do you think this paperclip of a man can fight???)

Yolande: flight, will fight if necessary
