ooc | George & Marguerite

kate!!!! there’s so much here to talk about!!!!! 

so I feel like I’m going to forget a bunch of things I meant to ask you here (it’s been a long day!!) but this will, at least, get us started! 

okay so ... george is great at coming off as being the opposite of ambitious! and he definitely acted like he didn’t ~want~ the position of advisor when nick first asked him but eventually he came around b/c everyone “convinced him” that he would be great in that role and would help serve all of valeria. plus, he was born a commoner/a man of the people and can give insight into that world that someone like margot or nick would never have otherwise!!!

ofc, he never, ever meant to nOT take it, he just likes keeping up this charade that he’s a better person than he is & he’s nothing if not patient!!! 

i’m not 100% sure when he started falling for margot romantically, but I do think that his strategies have def changed with that realization b/c he has only eVER looked out for himself and now he’s starting to look out for the welfare of others, too! 

george: i’m having feelings again! like some fourteen-year-old kid or something!! i mean, you remember feelings right? 

everyone else: ... yeah. i have feelings every single day of my life. 

anyway! george looks out for the people he cares about (aka the staffords and literally no one else) in unhealthy ways haha which generally means he’s gonna do things behind her back that he knows she wouldn’t be okay with to make certain problems just ~go away~. I’m not sure of an exact example, but I do know if Margot knew any of it, she would be furious and george would 1000% lose his post (if not his life!!) but george is noTHING if not super careful and he def employs the ~man behind the man behind the man~ ideology b/c he’s noT going down for literally any of this haha!!!

okay, so my main questions are ... do you think 1) george knows about margot’s abilities (i may have asked you this already, but I can’t remember!) 2) if he does, does she know he knows??? (i feel like george does a lot of spying on people #whoops) and 3) if she knows that he knows ... how did he find out? was it by mistake? did she tell him????? (I can see where he may have discovered it on his own and then said whatever he thought she might want to hear until she confessed it to him????) 

AND secondly ... I do feel like he had been slowly planting the idea in her head that she needed to get rid of her dad. Initially, it was just to get her dad out of the way, but as he started to care for her, it was (in his mind) also for her own good!!!! But I can see where it might have been something they planned together/he potentially helped with????? I’m honestly cool w/ it either way????

ALSO, I do think that george knows exactly where nick is, and is keeping tabs on him!!! And he would def share that info w/ margot if she knows that he knows about everything ... otherwise, he’s obviously keeping it to himself!

NORA COOPER - TAKEN BY KATE Age: 26 Portrayal: Willa Fitzgerald Alliance/Occupation: Loyalist/Baker Relationships: Thomas Cooper (brother), Nicholas Stafford (deceased secret fiancé), Laura Harris, Maria King (best friends), Roy Cooper, Irene Cooper, Nancy Cooper (cousins), Virginia Wood (new friend), Charles Calvert, Louisa Wilson (friend)

went to work for the staffords when she was eight as a scullery maid at the palace

tbh she was in complete!!!! awe!! of her position there and was proud that she was able to serve the royal family (even in this small capacity!)

nora had been reluctant to leave home with an ill mother, a little brother, and a father who was often away but she knew that they needed the extra income more than they needed an extra set of hands at home

nora loved her father, but she never understood what could be so important to take him away from his family so often (he never could seem to provide any of them with a straight answer)

one day he left and never came back

several months later, word reached them that he was dead

the coopers never did discover that he had given his life so that others could live and that he was a secret moralist who aided fleeing witches and their families

he raised his children as loyalists to protect them …. although he one day meant to tell them the truth, when they were old enough (unfortunately, that day never came)

soon after, her mother died, too, leaving nora and her brother on their own

while working at the palace, nora met and fell in love with nicholas stafford!

she was rather wary of him, at first, because of his reputation and all the other girls warned her that he would likely to love her and leave her

but slowly he broke through her defenses and she started to fall in love

they kept it all a secret - but nicholas had promised her that one day, he would renounce his claim to the throne and go and live a more simple life with her

as long as his father lived, however, it could never be … he would not allow for his only son and heir to give up everything for a kitchen maid

of course, the king had other plans for nicholas, but he promised her that he would never marry anyone else but her

and as soon as his father died, he would go to margot - who he knew would be a much better queen - and tell her everything

but then nicholas died - breaking nora’s heart!

she doesn’t think she could ever love anyone else again!!!

she’s also discovered that she may be pregnant and she’s terrified about what to do about it or how to explain it

so she’s recently resigned from her post and returned home where she’s trying to reestablish the old bakery her parents used to run, hoping she can make it somewhat profitable if and when she has a child w/o a man to help support her

she’s told her brother, tom, everything, and he’s determined to look out for his sister and his future niece or nephew, whatever happens

Flora’s Flowers | Cordelia & Flora

“Goodness, you have been busy!” 

Her sitting room had been adorned with dozens of flower arrangements, each lovelier and more elegant than the last. Cordelia supposed she should have expected this, when she'd agreed to let Flora select some potentials. 

“How am I to choose?” She asked, considering each one in turn, trying to supress the sudden overwhelming feeling that began to settle in. Cordelia had agreed to the marriage, wholeheartedly (it was the right thing to do for Valeria; it was the right thing to do for Margot) and yet it hadn’t seemed real, somehow, until now when the preparations were being made right before her eyes. 

There would be time, later, to digest these feelings. For now, she would put on a smile for her friend. Before her father’s death, no one wondered what Cordelia Stafford was thinking or feeling, but since then she’d quickly learned that her emotions must be repressed if she was going to provide the proper support for her sister. 

“I think you must have always been destined to plan my wedding,” Cordelia smiled, fingers tracing the petals of a rose as she inspected the arrangement closest to her, “You’ve more ideas for the flowers than I think I could have had for the entire ceremony!” She laughed, “And we both know that you were certainly destined to plan your brother’s, but who could have guessed that they would have been one and the same?” 

Certainly not Cordelia, herself, who had always considered Edward to be insufferable (and even more so knowing how he was with Flora - he was capable of being a much better man and yet he had somehow gotten it into his head that no one else deserved even a small fraction of the consideration he gave his sister).

is determined ot help her and use the money he’s earned (*cough*stolen*cough*) to help support her and her baby 

[goodqueenaly]

i dont know if you already answer this question,but here i am asking,lets say that after winds of winter,that house lannister is compleatly wiped out,who rules the westerlans?,who do you think became the second most powerful house in the westerlans after the raynes were killed by tywin over 20 years ago?who is their new rival in the west,because when you destroy an enemy some one else takes their place.

I really doubt the entire House Lannister is going extinct by the end of the books. The (legitimate) line of Tytos is certainly in danger of that, of course: I have no hope for any of Tywin’s children surviving the series, Lancel I think has a good chance of dying in TWOW, I don’t know that Martyn and Janei are necessarily safe, and if Varys plans on installing Tyrell as a puppet Lord of Casterly Rock under Aegon, well, the jade holocaust isn’t going to do him any favors either. But even if all (again, legitimate - I’ll hope Joy survives) descendants of Tytos die out, there are still the descendants of Jason Lannister: Damion and his son and grandchildren, the children of Stafford, and any descendants of Jason and Marla’s four other children. That, in turn, only encompasses the heirs of Gerold Lannister; our specific knowledge of the lineage of House Lannister only goes back to Gerold’s father, Damon “the Grey Lion”. To what extent there are other Lannisters descended from kinsmen of Damon alive today (that Margot Lannister who married Titus Peake came from somewhere) is unknown. (This, of course, is not even taking into account the Lannisters of Lannisport; as very early breakaways from the line of Lann the Clever, they would ordinarily have no intelligible claim whatsoever to Casterly Rock, but in an apocalyptic scenario where the whole Lannister succession came into question, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Lannisters of Lannisport made some push based on their name and (distant) shared lineage.)

As far as the second most powerful House of the Westerlands after the Reyne-Tarbeck Rebellion … eh. It’s really not even much of a question anymore, given the events of the Reyne-Tarbeck Rebellion; turns out when your overlord completely exterminates two rebellious Houses down to the last man, there’s not a huge desire among the remaining vassals to challenge the overlord’s place. If I had to guess, maybe House Crakehall? The Crakehalls are old Westerlands blood, and were sufficiently trusted as a western power by Tywin to have Jaime squire there in his youth.

Think the anon might’ve made an error -- Margot isn’t described as a “distant” cousin in her sole appearance, which is in the appendix of ASOS:

That Margot is listed at about the same level as Damion suggests a similar degree of family, and Damion is the son of Damon, Tywin’s first cousin (via Jason’s first wife Alys Stackspear). As Stafford’s daughters are both named and unmarried, that makes the chances of Margot being one of these unnamed daughters of Jason a little more likely, no?  Though tbf she could easily be be a daughter of one of Jason’s unnamed sons. Being about Daven’s age would make her easily marriage-age for Lord Peake...

(not that marriage age matters much, sigh, but you know what I mean.)

After looking at the Lannister family tree it says Margot Lannister is a distant cousin to the main branch of House Lannister. Do you think that it’s most likely that Margot Lannister is one of the two unnamed daughters of Jason Lannister and Marla Prester and therefore a sister to Joanna?

What you’re describing is not "a distant cousin" though. That’s a first cousin to Tywin, and an aunt to C, J, and T in the scenario suggested. No, I don’t think it’s likely. I think distant cousin means third, fourth, etc cousin.

All of the Sleek, Straight Hairstyle Inspiration You Need

Over the years, I have dedicated a lot of time and energy to finding a quick and easy way of achieving just-rolled-out-of-bed curls. You see, my hair is naturally poker straight. It's so straight, in fact, that trying to get it to hold any kind of curl is virtually impossible. Needless to say that this whole situation has meant that trying to keep my hair tousled has proved a little difficult, to say the least. However, I've noticed a return to straightened looks that remind me of the days when GHDs first launched. From some of my favourite celebrities to the fashion girls that I love following, it seems as though people are starting to dig out their hair straighteners. The best part? They actually look chic. Unlike the shapeless styles of yesteryear, the new straight is voluminous and sleek but with some movement. And it might seem like an odd thing to say, but I'm desperate to dive right in and dust off my trusty hair straighteners, because although my hair is naturally straight, nothing gives it that sleek sheen quite like a pair of straightening irons. A quick whizz over with my go-to GHD Platinum+ Styler (£175) and a spritz of Lee Stafford Shine Head Spray (£6) is all I need for the smoothest, sleekest hair going. If you've yet to be fully convinced by the straight-hair trend and are not quite ready to switch your tongs for irons, keep scrolling for sleek, straight hairstyles that just might be enough to sway you. Margot Robbie Photo: GETTY IMAGES Stick a fork in me. Margot's sleek, side-parted bob is impossibly chic. The flicked-out ends give a retro twist that I'm kind of obsessed with. Naomi Campbell Photo: GETTY IMAGES Long, luscious, sleek and not a hair out of place. I expect only the best from Queen Naomi. Zendaya Photo: GETTY IMAGES It's rare to see Zendaya without her curls, but this centre-parted super-straight look is equally as gorgeous. Lucy Hale Photo: @LUCYHALE Lucy Hale's side-parted bob is giving off seriously chic Royal Tenenbaums vibes. A single hair slide is a perfect touch. Viktoria Rader Photo: @VIKYANDTHEKID There's no doubt that the blunt bob is having a moment right now, but the way that Viktoria's bob is shaped around the face puts this style high on my inspiration list. Jessica Chastain Photo: @RENATOCAMPORA While I'm a huge fan of a full fringe with tousled hair, Jessica Chastain's layered lob proves it works just as well with straight hair. Amanda Brugel Photo: @JUSTINEMARJAN The messy ponytail has had its day—it's time for the super slicked-back pony to step into the limelight. Barbara Malewicz Photo: @ASOS_BARBARA This slicked-back, flicked-out bob is the low maintenance hairstyle I need to add to my need-to-try list ASAP. Naomi Watts Photo: @RENATOCAMPORA I bet Naomi's centre-parted blonde bob looks just as good with a loose wave as it does poker straight, but this sleek style is perfect for more formal occasions. Sabrina Carpenter Photo: @JENNIFER_YEPEZ Wearing your long, blunt cut super-straight is one of the most wearable styles going. A dry oil spray will up the shine and keep flyaways in place. Zina Charkoplia Photo: @ZINAFASHIONVIBE There is something wonderfully simple and chic about the way that Zina has tucked her straight hair behind both ears. Adria Arjona Photo: @RENATOCAMPORA Adria's simple style might be poker straight, but it's still full of movement. Symphani Soto Photo: @SYMPHANISOTO I love the way that the flicks at the end of this straight 'do go in different directions for that blow-dry effect. Kaia Gerber Photo: @KAIAGERBER Kaia is the queen of the straight blunt bob, and no one is about to take her crown. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Photo: @ROSIEHW Rosie's hair might be sleek and straight, but it certainly doesn't lack volume. Kim Seidensticker Photo: @KIMSEIDENSTICKER I love the way that Kim accessorises her straight lob with a padded headband. Helen-Jayne Photo: @STYLESTRUCTURE Helen-Jayne's deep brunette hair is almost impossibly chic thanks to this simple, straight style. Miss Enocha Photo: @MISSENOCHA Everything about this sleek bob and embellished hair slide combination is fabulous. Martha Hunt Photo: @LAURAPOLKO Martha's mid-length style is so simple. I'm annoyed that I haven't tried it before. Saoirse Ronan Photo: @KARAYOSHIMOTOBUA I wonder if Saoirse Ronan has ever had a bad hair day. Unlikely. Ciara Photo: @CIARA Ciara's centre-parted locks provide a standard of chic that I can only aspire to have. Priyanka Chopra Photo: GETTY IMAGES While I do love Priyanka's usual tousled look, this straight style is equally beautiful. Next up, 21 looks that prove boring centre partings have never been chicer.

GEORGE MARTIN - TAKEN BY LIZZY Age: 37 Portrayal: Edward Norton Alliance/Occupation: Neutral/Royal Advisor  Relationships: Nicholas Stafford (former pupil), Marguerite Stafford (queen/interest), Cordelia Stafford, Genevieve Stafford (friends), Clarence Calvert, Howard Calvert, Alexander Lambton (enemies), Cecil King (childhood best friend) 

grew up with nothing!!! 

dad was a drunk and his mom wasn’t around

has always been suPER SMART!!!! 

high level of street smarts as a kid and could honestly con you out of anything!!!! (if he couldn’t just use his remarkable slight of hand to pick your pockets) 

wanted to get a better life and climb as high as he could 

with money he stole, he eventually enrolled himself in a boarding school for young boys where he gained book smarts, too 

did well for himself there and went on to be a teacher and then, eventually, nicholas stafford’s private tutor 

nicholas trusted him with eVERYTHING and meant to make him his advisor once he was king 

has always been super diplomatic and is honestly a great mediator

keeps a cool head under pressure

nEVER gets emotional

what’s his secret??? he really doesn’t care!!!

tbh his job was never about helping people or serving the crown ... it was just a stepping stone on his path to wealth and power 

while being nicholas’s right hand, he became close friends with his sister margot, and with that friendship he saw some opportunity 

he knew that margot worried about the future of her country in the hands of her father and, upon his eventual death, her brother too 

for a very long time, he slowly edged her towards the idea that she could do a better job than either of them 

all she had to do, was get rid of them both 

when george discovered that margot was secretly a sorceress, it made things even easier

with margot on the throne, george knew he’d be her advisor and perhaps, she might even marry him

what george did nOT count on, was falling for margot along the way!!!!

in fact, he cares for all of the staffords!!! 

but doesn’t really care about anyone else or the rest of valeria tbh and his end game is really only to make sure that the staffords are safe and happy and the rest of the country could starve for all he cares

has definitely gone behind margot’s back before to take care of problems ~his way~ 

the king of manipulation!!!! 

knows what you want to hear

can be super charming and witty

dry sense of humor

NOT a fan of alexander lambton for a lot of reasons!!!

does trust that alexander will eventually ruin this opportunity for himself, however, without much intervention from george

[thevaleriancordelia]

Escape | Cordelia & Ben

Cordelia wandered the dim halls of the library, absentmindedly tracing the her fingers across the spines as she went. If you were to ask her, she would have told you that she was eagerly exploring her uncle’s collection of books but, in truth she was too distracted to pay them much attention and had only used it as an excuse to temporarily escape the present company. 

It was a small party: Clarence had extended an invitation to the Staffords and their royal guest, but Margot was unable to attend (which meant Cordelia and Genevieve had been forced to share a carriage with Alexander Lambton alone en route. Cordelia was dreading the trip home when he had had several glasses of brandy in him). 

She’d hoped to at least enjoy her cousins’ company, but neither Anna nor Charles were there (Anna having caught a cold and Charles having had a previous engagement with Henry Craven) which left Rose as only other reasonable person in the room besides her own sister. Cordelia didn’t wish to interrupt their private conversation nor did she wish to continue listening to Howard, Alexander, and Clarence say another word on anything and so ... here she was. 

Luckily, no one seemed too concerned that she was off elsewhere and no one had come looking for her. She’d assumed that she was alone but when she turned the corner, she collided with someone else and, all of a sudden, a wave of cold water and ice rushed over. Cordelia gasped, tightening from the shock of the sudden and unexpected cold. She looked up to find the source and saw that an awkward and rather confused looking servant had been the culprit. 

He stood before her, speechless and unmoving, clutching a now empty pitcher of water in his hands. Had it been wine, she might have scolded him for his carelessly, but it was only water (it would dry) and, what’s more, it gave her an excuse to delay her return. She wanted to laugh when she realized that standing here, dripping wet in the dead of winter, was far preferable than most of the company she had left behind. 

“You’d better be thankful it was me you spilled water on and not one of your mater’s other guests,” She teased, eyeing him, wondering how someone like this had managed to gain employment for her uncle, at all. “What are you doing here?” She asked - he was most likely wanted in the dining room as preparations were being made for dinner. “Are you lost?” She paused, smiling mischievously “Or are you hiding, too?”
