Fun Fact: due to our impeccable coordination, balance, agility, and reflexes, silks rarely fall off roofs, and can climb up many buildings safely.

Ult Red Queen Character Tournament Round of 16: Bracket B, #4

Vote for who you think is the ultimate Red Queen series character. Reblogging with propaganda is welcome, but please be respectful!

Ara Iral:

Don't get me wrong, I love Maven, but Ara Iral is so badass. She is an elderly woman, a grandmother, in a YA fantasy series, whose character is not defined by her age. She is intimidating and formidable to her enemies, but loved and admired by her own family. Ara is one of only a handful of female High House leaders in the series(I believe the others are the heads of House Eagrie and House Greco). She stood up to Elara Merandus and was imprisoned because of it. In the end, Ara ended up fighting and dying beside Mare, a Red, someone she had been taught was beneath her, for her own freedom. The Panther is truly a memorable character, and one I wish we could have learned more about.

Maven Calore:

*DEEP BREATH* SO! THIS MAN HAS BEEN MANIPULATED SINCE HE CAME OUT THE WOMB, DUDE'S GOT MORE TRAUMA THAN I HAVE CRUSHES (and lemme tell u that's a lot). HE'S BI. AND GAY FOR HIS (dead) BEST FRIEND. HE'S HOT, SO HE SHOULD GET EXTRA POINTS. And my boi got to marry all the baddies in the series [Mare, Evangeline, Iris]. HE WOULD BURN THE WORLD aND NOT LET A SINGLE FLAME TOUCH HIS BELOVED [Mare].THIS MAN HAS THE ENERGY OF A SLEEP DEPRIVED WET CAT. I LOVE HIM. He deserves to win, I put my boi in every tournament I can, and he don't win 👁💧👄💧👁. And he's my adopted wet cat, I love him <3 [and he has also committed mucho bad stuff, but he's just a cute little wet cat man, promise! <3] I wanna ramble more, but I have homework :((( BUT THIS MAN IS THE ULTIMATE ONE.

Emo sad boi

After many, many months of work and thought, this is finally done! I wanted to make a list of all the voice claims I imagined for the RQ characters so here we go!! Feel free to share your own ideas as well!

These are all subject to change (of course). I just put voices to whoever I could match, so sorry if this list is a little all over (more characters could be added in the future!).

[themadauthorshatter]

bestie!! can you do some headcanons about minor red queen characters such as sonya, elane, heron, etc?

OOOH, YEAH!!

I'll try not to strech too far with these and I may or may not include Ptolemus because we see so much of him in the books, but he's not a pov character, so yeah.

.

.

Right off the bat, Rohr was a Queenstrial contestant that everyone questioned behind closed doors mainly because of her age.

Sonya met Evangeline through a meeting with Houses Samos and Iral. The girls barely got along, but could at least put up with each other enough to respect their statuses.

Olliver has won against Maven sparingly and lost to Cal more times than he cares to count. He does not take it personally.

Quick homophobia warning here, many members of House Iral were confused and didn't understand Robert's being a consort to the King, though they were sure to keep it all to themselves because he did give their house a good deal of power, being so close to the King.

Samson and Cal get into fights that end in draws. Where Cal fights using strategy, Samson uses mental brutality to either break his opponents or get them to injure themselves to the point he wins.

Ara Iral was quite close with Sonya and gave her some comfort after the Queenstrial.

Lucas was someone MANY of the Samos House members looked down on, but Evangeline and Ptolemus did silently grieve for him.

After the events of the series, Wren has helped Ptolemus and Evangeline through unlearning everything that was taught to them. Needless to say, it was WAY easier said than done.

Bree and Tramy do occasionally have nightmares about the Front, but it's something they've come to talk about with Cal as he's had those experiences.

Cal was the best man in Julian's wedding.

Gisa occasionally gets a phantom ache in her hand because of how long it had been broken.

The electrons, after the war, keep in touch and are close with one another.

Heron was admittedly nervous to have been chosen as Cal's bride because he would have probably won any and all duels in training. Still hurt when Evangeline was chosen, though.

Elane and Evangeline did get married, and Sonya attended.

Davidson did not have long to adjust to being a leader, but he did very well, if he does say so himself, thank you very much.

That's all I've really got, thanks for the ask!!!

2. Blue Blood

Steel Heart

Summary: Lada attends a luncheon with the other Queenstrial girls.

Notes: none.

The next day Lada woke up late, being met with her mothers’ disappointed face. The day wasn't starting off well. Lada pulls herself out of bed, being reminded that there was going to be a luncheon with the ladies of Queenstrial and their mothers. She couldn't be more disappointed.

Lada dressed slowly, a Red maid sitting in the corner of her room waiting to be called on. She hates these luncheons, even though she should be used to them by now. Ever since she turned sixteen she had been pushed and pulled to all sorts of noble meetings. It became so tiring, and that was five years ago. Her clothing today was a simple, white shirt with purple buttons; sleeveless, as always. Sleeveless dresses and shirts helped to accentuate the muscle in her arms, which she had always shown rather proudly. Her pants flow at the ankles, the color being a deep mauve. Her maid helped thread purple flowers in small braids scattered around neatly brushed black hair. With the addition of a simple necklace Lada was ready to head out.

Lada steps outside of her room, greeted with her mother, wearing her house color of pale blue. Lada always forgot that her mother was a shiver, never usually seeing her fight or use her abilities at all. But she guessed it wasn't useful for her to show off ever since she left the war. Her mother had been a spy before retiring when Miya was born. She never usually talked about her life before her children, and Lada never asked.

The two walk to the Glass Terrace, never speaking a word to each other. Lada learned early that her mother didn't talk much, but her father more than made up for it. However, since Lada had discussed going off to the war, her father had stopped talking about old war stories, and she began to regret her decision. She didn't have time to think about it now as she and her mother had finally reached their destination, and they shared a look of understanding before parting to speak with different crowds of people.

Lada didn't have many ‘friends’ present today, but when her eyes ventured to Mareena she felt a sliver of hope rise up inside of her. The girl had no concept of the people sitting with her today, maybe she was the friend Lada needed. She was a clean slate, having lived in a Red village her whole life. Lada felt herself moving faster than she meant to, and she unnaturally slows down her pace, not wanting to scare off the girl she had her sights so eagerly set on. Lada notices Mareena was dressed quite similarly. Perhaps that could be something to bond over.

“Lady Mareena,” Lada says firmly, slowly bowing, although the height difference made it quite hard to do so. One thing Lada had noticed about Mareena was that she was very short, and although she was used to looking down at people, this was quite different. Mareena bows as well, although hers was slightly more forced. She probably wasn't used to it.

“Im Lada of House Glazastov,” Lada says carefully, analyzing every bit of Mareenas facial expression she could. She wasn't very good at reading people, but she could see the girl in front of her racking her brain. For what, Lada couldn't be sure.

“I wanted to say hello. We've obviously never met before so I thought it was only right to do it now,” Lada says, hoping for some sort of response this time. “That is very kind,” Mareena says slowly, almost robotically, “did you also compete in Queenstrial?”

“Of course, although I didn't make as much of a show as you or Evangeline,” Lada chose her words carefully, not wanting to seem disappointed or upset in fear that Mareena would get the wrong idea. Although she was sure Mareena didn't start off with a great opinion of other Queenstrial girls, Lada having witnessed Sonya Iral and Elane Haven walk away not long before she came over.

Lada and Mareena spoke a bit longer before being called off to sit down by Queen Elara. Lada always had an awkward feeling about the Queen, although she didn't like to admit it while sitting so close to the woman. Lada reunites with her mother, the woman sitting to her right. Everyone enjoyed wonderful food and Evangeline's boring conversation. Lada was happy when the luncheon was over, and she left quickly with her mother at her side.

Just re reading Red Queen and wtf Ara Iral deserved better than what she got. Like no, she was a queen and she did not deserve to die at all. Just saying that what happened to her was not fair for even a second.
