Uhhhahah, projecting, yay. I like, felt so numb earlier. I was at a friend's house, just petting his cat, and it was the most relaxing kind of numb.

Now, I drew this with my head clouded whilst it felt as light as a balloon. This is not the yummy numb feeling. Not the yummy numby way. How did I think that completely seriously? "Yummy Numby Way."

"Why are they in the rain?" I'm so glad you didn't ask. Uh, because when I'm in pain, I sit/stand wherever. Imagine she (Catalina) was coming home with groceries and then - boom! - misery. Maria I-risked-my-life-and-position-to-see-you-one-last-time de Salinas grabs the closest jacket and an umbrella from the supply closet and sits outside with her.

@idkmanidk27 here you go!

“Well, yeah, it’s not the safest way to freedom. The prison’s overrun with monsters and infected, and most people can’t fight off hordes of undead soldiers with nothing but a rusty broken sword. But then again, most people can’t get beheaded and then get right back up again, so I think you’ve at least got a fighting chance.”

“…” Anne doesn’t exactly feel very reassured by that statement. Unfortunately, she also doesn’t know how to communicate this, a recurring issue that is beginning to get rather annoying.

Judging by the expression on the knight’s face, Maria feels the same. She crosses her arms.

“Are all our conversations going to be this one-sided?”

Anne stares at her, then grunts softly and shrugs, wincing slightly at the pain shooting through her throat. Maria sighs.

“Brilliant. I appreciate the eloquent answer.”

Hi there! Welcome to the Six fandom, glad to have you here. Here’s the master post you requested:

The six queens are Catherine of Aragon (or Catalina, as much of the fandom calls her), Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Katherine Howard (or Kat and Kitty in a lot of fanworks on ao3) and Catherine Parr (Cathy Parr).

There’s also the four ladies in waiting - Maggie, Bessie, Maria and Joan, who play the instruments in the musical and represent the actual ladies in waiting of the six queens. (Margaret Lee, Elizabeth Blount, Maria de Salinas, Joan Meutas)

Now the normal costumes are in yellow/gold, green, white, red, pink and blue, but for swings and alternates (basically the understudies of the musical theatre world, love them sm) typically dress in silver versions of those costumes, hence why “everyone is wearing silver”.

Hope this helps, if you need to know anything else, scream into the void and I may or may not respond.

- your friendly neighbourhood theatre guy

thanks so much!! This was incredibly helpful I was a bit lost for like a good week but I've become absolutely obsessed with this musical the more I learn about it!!

Six Sentence Sunday

Thanks for the tag @the-francakes!

It’s not Sunday, but if I don’t do this now, I will absolutely forget that I said I was going to do it. Anyway, I digress.

Here are six sentences from an upcoming fic, where Luna owns an adult toy store.

……

He hadn't walked into just any shop. No, of course not. He'd walked into the one store he didn't want to be in - that he hadn't even known had existed to begin with.

"You look a bit lost. Are you looking for something to use yourself, or something you can use with a partner?" The soft voice came from in front of him this time, but he couldn't see the speaker's face, as it was hidden behind a stack of boxes she was carrying.

Tagging @bunny-bopper @maria-de-salinas and @fiendishfyre!

MARIA DE SALINAS in SIX WIVES WITH LUCY WORSLEY (2016)

[cinderspots]

LEGENDS AU -

1. The legends consist of a dark legend, light legend, ice legend, fire legend, and electricity legend. Dark will be Anne. Light will be Jane. Ice will be Cathy. Fire will be Anna. Electricity will be Catherine. Ice’s opposite is either red or orange but after being kidnapped and genetically altered Kat is now purple and free from her predisposed destiny causing her to instead befriend the legends. But this chapter will purely be retelling the folk lore of the legends, referring to each legend as their consecutive powers.

2. The six go to a special school filled with people who have the gene to be legends, but are chosen by upper beings. The school principal brings the yin and yang bombs that cause whoever is chosen to briefly be in pain and for their power to surge. Jane and Anne collapse on the floor before their mark appears on their cheek and their black [anne] and white [jane] wings appear. Jane and Catherine had previously been best friends but after becoming a legend Jane leaves her behind causing her to become bitter.

3. Anna is bullied a lot and she loses her temper finally, causing a demonic tail and horns to appear and for her fire powers to spark and her mark to appear as well.

4. Catherine’s father is a drunk and abusive and one day she can’t take anymore and she runs. It’s storming outside and she makes it a few miles before she collapses in a ditch. Lightning builds above her but she stays oblivious until she can hear it and she looks up before it strikes her, causing her powers to emerge as well as her mark. She super speeds her way back home before publicly super speeds her way to school later on, announcing her legend status. However she is extremely bitter towards Jane still and refuses to talk to her and is downright cruel to her at times, but she befriends Anna

5. Cathy has had her powers since she was a small child but her parents made her hide them, causing her to become more quiet. After her father beat her mother to death she shot him in revenge and became homeless. She befriends Kat though, but one day Catherine and Jane both team up on her, Catherine having forgotten what it felt like to be normal and she loses her temper, causing her powers to surge before her alternate personality comes out, causing her eyes to turn red and she attempts to murder the two.

6. Kat shows up and protects them, lighting a purple fire with a flick of her newly revealed tail. She’s captain of the cheer team, and Cathy’s best friend but she fights off her other personality ‘Raven’ before Cathy resubmerges and has a breakdown, her mark on full display. She refuses to join the legends in an act of revenge for all they’ve done to her, but Kat convinces her to join. Cut to Cathy’s head where we formally meet Raven, and two other personalities named Samantha and Catherine (much to her annoyance). Samantha is a form created for water purposes, Catherine for air purposes, and Raven for defensive and more violent purposes, while Cathy is the main and ice.

7. The six all get to know each other.

8. Kat trains them in combat before putting them through trials designed specifically for their powers. Catherine goes through a labyrinth made of ice that also puts enemies and after a few minutes adds a poisonous darkness that makes it so she can’t stop or turn around. Anne goes through a few challenges of stealth and light. Jane goes through more offensive challenges against mannequins made of darkness. Anna goes through a few ice challenges and Cathy goes through fire challenges.

9. Their ‘sidekicks’ make their entrance. Catherine’s sidekick, Maria, has matter manipulation and time manipulation powers. Anne’s sidekick, Maggie, has powers over emotional love, but can also affect other emotions. Jane’s sidekick, Joan, was a hydra capable of multiplying herself as well as greek fire. Anna’s sidekick, Bessie, is capable of telling the future. Cathy’s sidekick, turns out to be her supposed dead mother (Maud) who was brought back to life and was able to communicate with animals and the dead.

10. They fight against their opposites, dark versions of them that represent the complete opposite and their worst fear. Bessie has a vision of how all of them die, but stays quiet.

11. Kat’s past as a kidnapped expiramentee is revealed as well as her rape and abuse past.

12. Their big challenge appears and they’re forced to go on a magic journey throughout the world to face down opponents meant for each opposite. Yin and Yang are sent into the clouds to fight a dragon that changes skins to absorb their attacks and it ends up eating Jane briefly after ripping her wings off before Anne forces the dragon to throw her back up and heals her wings back on. Fire and Ice go to a Tundra and Dessert and fight off opposites before Anna gets blinded and Cathy ends up fighting both sides before her throat gets slit. She cheats death by freezing her blood in place briefly until she can finish fighting. Electricity and Kat who was recently revealed to be the paragon of the long lost lust, part of the emotion family. They nickname themselves as creed when Catherine reveals that she too went through an assassin program against her will in a brief heart to heart about her past at being briefly stranded on an island and taken prisoner on many ships and places before a dragon appears. They almost win when the dragon unexpectedly shoots spikes from their tail, impaling Catherine's stomach and causing her to begin to bleed out, and Kat has to beat it by herself.

13. Everyone regroups and Jane heals everyone, starting with Cathy, then Catherine, and then Anna, then she does the rest of the group. They realize that the marks that were glowing in the sky that represented the time of the legends now had a new one, purple to represent kat who would now start the line of the combat experts. 

14. They arrive at their final destination where they meet Henry, the immortal, he’s been going against legends for centuries and he tricks all of them but Kat, who’s new, into draining themselves of power and giving it to him, but the previous legends visit all of them while Kat defends them. They get advice from their predecessors while Kat and the sidekicks keep Henry in line. They all wake up and have a power surge causing them to briefly overpower him before he surges back up and forces them down. They realize the machine that they were just hooked up to was the key to putting him down but they need someone to absorb the dark energy, and power the immobilizer. Anna is sent to find a better power source since the one already in place was failing. Henry is immobilized and he watches them all scramble to turn the machine off. The absorber fails and so Anne locks herself in the room and begins to absorb the dark energy. Catherine detached the power source and hooks herself up. Both start to glow from over power and burn from the inside out due to the power filling them. Anna comes back empty handed when a tremor shakes the cavern and the rocks above her fall on top of her. Jane is begging both Anne and Catherine to stop and let them find a new way when they both dissolve, and Jane is suddenly hit by a jagged rock falling and it goes through her cleanly, effectively killing her as well. Cathy and Kat are horrified and Kat realizes that Cathy is going to lose it and we see that every single ice legend has watched their other legends die and immediately reacted badly with a power surge. Before Kat can stop her Cathy screams and shoots ice everywhere, turning the machine off, but sending the entire human race back to the ice age. Kat survives, but Cathy does not.

15. Epilogue

[spooner7308]

The monster au Ladies in waiting everyone!

I've been teasing this idea for a while but here they are in all their glory!

This isn't as in-deph as the Queen's but it's all you need to know for now

Some bullet points

Joan

- Joan's transformation was just like the metamorphosis of a butterfly/moth forming a cocoon, liquefying her organs and reforming as a flying, four-armed fuzzball

-Joan's tongue is like a proboscis and she mostly eats liquids in moth form

-for some reason people love dumping angst on Joan but seeing as everyone else is angsting in this AU I decided to go for the opposite, due to the painless nature of her transformation and the lack of any predatory instincts Joan is honestly living her best life and just vibing with the convenience of four extra limbs

Maggie

-Maggie is the most feral out of both the Queens and the LIW, she can still talk and do human things but her behavior is mostly canine, leading to a lot of growling, barking, howling, sniffing, chewing furniture and chasing squirrels

-Like Anne Maggie attacked on of her friends after she first transformed and went completely feral, fortunately(or unfortunately for Maggie) the person she attacked was Maria, who doesn’t fuck around wrestled her right off

-Maggie is a pretty destructive force in the household, or at least she was until the other LIW got a spray bottle

Bessie    

-picking Bessie's species was tough and I bounced around several ideas until I settled on this one

-Bessie was going to be more specifically a Siren but due to her history I decided not to, it’s more ‘thematic’ than literal now, as she has an anglerfish orb and the markings on her body are also bioluminescent 

-Bessie can spend a while on land but unlike Anne she isn’t really that mobile on land and needs to be carried around (usually by Maria) she spends a lot of time in the bathtub

-Water and electric cables don’t mix, so Bessie has to be VERY careful when practicing bass, the lack of Mobility is very frustrating for Bessie because in my mind Bessie acts like she doesn’t need anyone but this form requires her to receive the help from others 

Maria  

-Out of all the monsters Maria is the third largest, second being Anna first being Jane

-Maria is also a destructive force but its mostly by accident, as she’s not used to her size and strength, she can be about as destructive as well ‘a bull in a china shop’

-The aforementioned fight with Maggie was one that Maria ended in a matter of seconds by wrestling Maggie off her and throwing her into a wall with her horns, 

-Being the largest in size and greatest in strength Maria is the de-facto peacekeeper who keeps Maggie in check and helps move Bessie around, it’s a thankless job but one Maria is willing to do

-At some point Maria found out about Aragon’s situation and straight up yanked the door to whatever room she was in off its hinges to comfort her old friend

I will make more in-deph additions to these guys soon! feel free to ask any questions so that I may answer them

Thanks to @moan-jeutas​ and @upsettimyspagetthi​ for contributing their ideas!
