Grand Duchess Marie Alexandrovna on meeting the Hohenfelsens

(safe to say she was not impressed 🤣)

Paris, 16 June 1908

The young Swedish couple" has arrived in our hotel. Little Marie is a very sedate and calm little person, but she poured her heart out to Baby: she feels it terribly meeting here her step-mother and suffers greatly under it. As to poor little Dmitry, he is in perfect despair. He hates the whole thing and loathed the idea of seeing his new Geschwister [siblings]. He comes to me to talk about it.

Of course Uncle Paul and wife manquent de tact [are tactless] in every way: for instance, last Tuesday he arranged a big luncheon with quantities of his French acquaintances and asked us too. It was the first time poor Dmitry went to his house here and Uncle Paul presented him to all the guests as "mon fils aine" [my eldest son]. The boy simply se tordait de désespoir [curled up in despair], we observed it all and in the middle of this unknown company appeared these second children and all the affected French people went into loud ectasies about them [at this time, Vladimir was 11, Irina 4 and Natalie 2], whilst poor Dmitry was pale with concentrated rage and moral suffering.

Marie told Baby that she never would have come here, had she known, how it would be. And people are wonderfully taktlos. They all praise her to the skies when they talk to me, cette charmante Comtesse Hohenfelsen, "elle est adorable, cette femme". Vous trouvez [that charming Countess Hohenfelsen. She's adorable, don't you think?]. I answer, oh! Bien pour moi, c'est très pénible [for me it's all very painful] and I tell them a few truths. Then they at once turn the conversation, as French people hate when they are found at fault et ne désirent pas du tout en savoir d'avantage. [and don't want to be wrong in any way].

As to Uncle Paul, I cannot support at all him here; his whole attitude and tone I find detestable, I don't show it, à quoi bon and I am simply polite with his wife, like with any lady in society I don't care for. I simply writhe when I see in his house portraits of my mother, what a desecration! And he pointed them out to me! I thought one moment I would like to insult him before all his idiotic French guests.

"Dear Mama" - Diana Mandache

This is what I love about digging into original sources. When we read Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna's memoires, the idea we get is that she always had a pleasent relationship with her stepmother, but here (at least according to Maria Alexandrovna, who clearly still held a deep resentment towards her brother and his second wife) it seems things were not so smooth.

It's also interesting (and sad) to notice how she doesn't really consider Grand Duke Paul's children from his second marriage worthy of any note and is even annoyed that the French fawn over them and that Grand Duke Paul introduces Dmitri as his "eldest son", which seems to imply she doesn't consider Vladimir to be his son at all.

It kind of shows what the rest of the family thought about Grand Duke Paul's second family: so irrelevant that it was as if they didn't exist.

Gone Too Long

Summary: Joel embraces you after you had gone missing for some time.

Joel Miller x Male Reader

Tags: Angst, Comfort, Soft!Joel

A/N: Here's a short one for you! Took me a couple hours to write, so hope it turns out enjoyable.

Still nothing, still the gates stayed shut just as they were three days ago.

You, and a few other residents in Jackson, had yet to return from your patrols. The objective for your group was quite simple, clear out any infected in your assigned area. The danger levels were not as high, since Jackson would routinely send out their finest members to keep infected from coming into the radius of their walls, mitigating any chances of anyone getting hurt. The odds were stacked in their favor, but it wasn’t certain. 

Tommy and Maria were standing among an ever growing crowd close by the gates of their town. Both arguing with his older brother, Joel, and a few other of the residents who insisted they send a search party for their missing loved ones.

The people shouted, “How long until we do something”, “My daughter is out there!”

Concern was rising, tensions were high but Maria opped to calm the people down. Using her hand to assert some level of control, she tries settling the worried crowd while Joel and Tommy were arguing just behind her. 

“I already told you, we don’t have the guys to be sending out there, right now,” Tommy explained.

Joel shook his head, “It’s been days Tommy, days since we’ve heard from them”.

“What can we do? We already advised our patrols to be on the lookout. Even the ones that were sent out this mornin’.”

Joel scuff, “They ain’ looking for them, they’re just doing their damn job.”

“And that's the best we can do” Tommy says.

Joel opened his mouth but closed it after, turning his head in frustration. He knew by this point that continuing a dispute with Tommy was just a waste of time. He felt every second that wasn’t dedicated to finding you was a waste of time. In fact everything felt that way to him, why bother getting people involved when he could just do it himself.

“I’ll go,” Joel concludes, his back turned to Tommy making his way to the stable. 

Tommy quickly chases after him, “Joel. Hey!” He grabs his brother’s arm, who shooed it away. “You have no idea what you’re doing. You don't know where they are…how you're going to get to them…”

“I’ll find a way, I always do”, Joel states sternly.

“You’ll find a way to get yourself killed.”

Joel stops where he’s at and turns to Tommy, “Yeah? At least someone actually give a damn around here! If-” Joel halts his words gathering up his thoughts, “I can’t lose him. If..if something happened to him I…god,” his breath was unsteady. 

There was a brief change in Joel's expression, one Tommy hadn’t seen in a long time; desperation. It was quick though, so fast that he would’ve missed it if he’d blinked, before Joel changed back to his almost demeaning expression.

Tommy knew how much you meant to Joel, how much he cared for you. The man’s heart seemed to be growing back, to take that away from him…again…Tommy definitely didn’t want to see that. Maria came to mind and how he’d react if she was in your predicament. Maybe he’d do the same too.

Tommy pursed his lips, grasping the weight of the situation from Joel’s perspective. He nods his head, allowing his brother to go through with his plan. However, Joel wasn’t looking Tommy in the eyes anymore. His attention was caught by something just over his brother’s shoulder. He moves forward, with Tommy following him with his eyes, Joel stops after a few steps. 

Now in the same direction of Joel, Tommy could now see it too. The gate was beginning to open. The watchers were waving down to the people below that something was wrong. The two men wasted no time making their way over to the gate.

Maira quickly got the crowd to back into the sidewalks, “This way, this way people.” With everyone clear for those on the other side of the gate, it continued to open until stopping at its limit. Your group, the ones that had gone missing, finally made it back to town. The group trotted into town, looking as if they had all seen a ghost. Only three horses had returned instead of four, with one of the patrol members mounted on your horse completely battered. Things didn’t look too good. 

You dismount your horse, careful not to knock your comrade off with you. “Come” you say, pulling the injured member down. A random lady had called out to her, claiming her as her ‘daughter’. She cries out along with the injured lady as they hug one another. A smile running across your face, happy that you saved a family member from having to deal with the loss of a loved one. Maria came up to you with concern in her face, “You alright?”

You titled your head momentarily, “Could be better.”

“I feel it might be too soon to ask what happened," she replies.

You appreciated her concern, as you didn’t really want to talk about it, at least not right now. You watched as the other members dismounted from their horses while coming up with a response, “It was awful, a couple of raiders got us and-” you didn’t bother to finish your statement since Maria didn’t push you to complete it. You sigh, looking about the subsiding crowd, “Is Tommy here? Joel?”

Maria, “Uh, they were just here not long ago…oh…right over there.”

Your eyes gaze in the direction she points. Your heart jumps, seeing him. Joel, standing still while his brother began toward you and Maria. Tommy’s frame was starting to block your view of Joel, so you paced over to him. You collide with Tommy, shaking his hand as he places his other hand on your shoulder. You exchange greetings without saying a word, he motions to Joel who still was stunned. Tommy’s gaze and small smile telling you to, ‘Go hug your damn man’. Letting go of his hand, you make your way to Joel in strides. He finally started moving, your name escaping his lips as he started jogging toward you. 

Next thing you know, you two are embracing. Like magnets, you latch onto each other dearly. Your vision blurred, watery, swearing that Joel was the one squeezing the tears out of you. You wished that were true, only it wasn’t and you were just ecstasy to see him again.

A tear rolled down your face, as you huffed, “Joel” sounding like you questioned if he was even real.

Joel’s rough hand ran up your back, leading all the way to the back of your neck. “I’m here, baby…I’m right here”. His voice, so close to your ears, it was enough to take all your worries away. 

For Joel, he trembled, more so than you were for different reasons then you. He could tell your time out there was nightmare fuel, hellish to an extent. The man wanted nothing but to tear down everything that brought harm to you out there. If it meant a few people, multiple gangs or the whole damn world, he'd do it. But now, you needed him, and Joel wasn’t planning on going anywhere. 

He turns his head to place a kiss along your cheek, continuing to reassure you of your safety. With his free hand going in circles around your back, he softly states, “Let it out, you’re home now”. 

You did just that, silently tearing up into the man's shoulders. Hearing his words made you relax further into his hold, your head resting against his cheek. You close your eyes, letting the warmth of Joel’s jacket consume you. His heat grounded you, ensuring that you were in fact, home.

hiiiiiii! i'm aine! im ummmmm two deaths old and three and a half sauces tall and i have a yellow cape! are you a skykid like me? ive been looking for people like me and everyone has skin like tree bark rather than stone, or hair in weird colors that aren't white. it's so weird! what sort of cape do you use? how many deaths? can you really dodge krill when you get big? i wanna be a cool veteran someday!

I... believe you may have mistaken me for someone else, but hello, Aine. I do not believe I am a skykid. My cape is... the same cape I have used for a long time, I suppose, though occasionally I do switch it out for another acquired more recently.

[Two pictures are attached. The first shows Maria's normal cape, a dark-colored one worn primarily over one shoulder. The cape in the second picture is worn much the same way, but is golden instead, and shimmers a little in the light.]

I do not know what krill are.

"Oh... so you kin see her too." Johnny had a haunted look about his face, for once looking uncomfortable, "She ain' alive... That... thing, is some sort of ghost, or somethin'. Why else is she all bloody? An' fer a time she had these... empty white eyes."

He shuddered, "Sure... we kin kill her an' she comes back, they all do. Thems same victims, but she's... different. Worse... Sometimes... I'll see her with that chainsaw wound Big Boy gave 'er.. Right down her face an' chest, all torn open, but most the time she hides it. It's what thems ghosts an' ghoulies do ta trick ya.

helllooo maria !! ^_^ wanted to pop by and wish u a happy weekend !! also let’s discuss bg3 teehee >:3 !! tell me about ur playthru & ur tav !! i wanna know all !!

Happy weekend Aims! I have no plans so that means I'm playing a ton of BG3!!

I have three active playthroughs and I'm starting a fourth today 😭

Aine is a half-wood ef roguelock romancing Halsin. She's an orphan from Baldur's Gate whose parents were also petty criminals, but she's grown up into a staunch believer in equality who thinks Baldur's Gate is a failure of a city, but she's going to protect it anyway because if you have the ability to help someone, you should. One really cool thing I did with her was make her guardian look like her father, but then act 3 happened and [spoilers].

Jacinth or Jas is a dark urge drow light cleric who was supposed to romance Astarion...but I found that playing as a drow gets you kind of a free pass to go wherever you want in act 1, and I didn't like missing out on roleplay opportunities, so I'm probably not going to continue with her (sorry girlie).

Saccharine or Rina is a pink tiefling bard who's going to be romancing Gale! As I was making her, I said to myself "The bard armor is so ugly. The first thing I'm doing when I get off this ship is getting her better armor and dying it a nice color. Honestly, she'd probably say the exact same thing." She's my pretty pink agent of chaos who's good-naturedly silly and prefers to laugh through the pain. I accidentally used the same hair for Rina and Jas oopsie.

And my currently unnamed fourth Tav is going to be a dark urge paladin who will romance Astarion. She's going to react with absolute horror whenever the dark urge makes her do things, which is why she needs the pretty vampire man to show her that the urge doesn't make her a monster. Aw!

Pictures! L-R: Aine, Jas, and Rina

The next she took was with Sam Keeley who plays Eric 'Viking' Kinsella in the show and he was in a black top. She also posed with Aidan Gillen, Clare Dunne, Emmett J Scanlan, Maria Doyle Kennedy and Yasmin Seky.

Fazia calor quando eu conheci Maria Rita, viemos falando de como o ser humano reclama de tudo, isso porquê um viu o outro reclamando,rimos tanto que até esquecemos daquele sol escaldante,ela falou depois dos risos que uma coisa que ela amava era cantar, disse a ela que também amava música e que meu sonho era encontrar alguém que também gostasse, de repente uma parceria na música e na vida, só que o calor me tirava um pouco a vontade de soltar a voz,ela riu e disse que também não cantava com calores intensos,ela amava o frio,puxa vida eu também,olha aí a vida de novo sendo um cupido com a ajuda da empresa de ônibus que adiantou os horários sem avisar ,aliás foi assim que nos encontramos,dois atrasadinhos,ela também sentiu as coincidências e me propôs irmos a pé rumo a estação,e acrescentou que o tempo fechou,e se chover abro meu guarda chuva e dançamos e cantamos I'm singing in the ain,agora estou rezando pra chover uma nova história de amor.
