🍝 & 🖤 for Elise and Emily
🍝 SPAGHETTI — what is/are your oc's favorite food(s)?
Hm..thinking about Elise's backstory -- she was born in 1957. She grew up in public housing in a poor neighborhood in the 1960's, and would would have been a teenager in the early 1970's. Thinking of the cuisine of the era, particularly among the working poor: food tended to be simple, convenient, and bland. Thinking of what I've said about Armorican cuisine in the past, and what I've said to @nexility-sims in recent DM's: some kind of potato-heavy casserole prepared with some kind of canned soup. I'm imagining something like potatoes au gratin, made with a can of soup instead of butter and cream. I'm envisioning canned clams playing a role, as well. As for Emily...egg tarts. I don't know why, but she's giving me egg tart vibes. She must be a dim sum girlie.
🖤 BLACK HEART — has your oc killed or seriously wounded anyone before? have they broken someone's heart and/or broken someone's trust?
Before she joined the royal family, Elise played hockey professionally. Although women's hockey tends to involve less bloodsport than men's hockey, Elise was probably involved in at least one on-ice brawl during the course of her ten-year career. I don't think she's ever seriously physically injured anyone, but she broke a fair few hearts during the same span of time. Emily is a mild, bookish girl, and Freddy is her first-ever boyfriend. She's never been in a physical fight, never crashed a car, never committed drunken manslaughter at a party. And she's certainly never broken anyone's heart...

#armorica asks#Anonymous#thank you for the ask!#i almost was boring and just skipped the first one or gave an easy answer#but inventing a new potato-based clam chowder casserole feels deeply appropriate#maybe frozen peas are involved#at any rate this is one of like four things elise knows how to cook#she makes it on family holidays#but doesn't otherwise have it#because asking the staff to prepare this dish that is considered unsophisticated and associated with the working poor#would be a deeply vulnerable thing#and Elise Don't Trust Like That
