#rta the dark queen

Random Lists of TTS headcanons (mostly about Quirin and the Dark Kingdom) that I have:

Quirin became a Brotherhood member when he had a 'Home Alone' moment with Edmund and his wife because he thought they thieves (they broke in because it was raining HORRIBLY)

Quirin was in charge of the Brotherhood, in the sense that although Edmund as the King was in charge, Quirin was the one dealing with the group as a whole

There were more Brotherhood members, but they either retired, died or are simply lost in the world after the fall of the Dark Kingdom

The Brotherhood members had noble titles and pieces of land, Quirin had a BIG farming land (as the head in charge) and he used to help around before the Kingdom Fell. He used a few techniques he learned later on when he became a full time farmer (not all because different crops and different types of land)

You can find small communities from the Dark Kingdom moving around still, looking for some place to settle (and they eagerly go back to the Kingdom when Edmund starts rebuilding it)

The DK and Corona used to have a little bit of Beef because sun vs moon, that's why Quirin settling (probably with other people, lbh) there with the piece of the scroll was a good move

Corona was funded or helped fund by Demanitus

Demanitus is originally from the Dark Kingdom

Quirin was in the process of retiring when the Dark Kingdom fell

The Brotherhood all have specific face tattoos, but by the time Eugene was born they were only mandatory to use during events and things like that, hence why Quirin didn't have one, though if you wanted a permanent tattoo you could have it (hence Adira and Hector)

OR all the tattoos are temporary, Adira and Hector just have been reapplying theirs

The Great Tree used to be the border for the Dark Kingdom, hence why Hector set up shop in it

the Queen Ghost we saw was the one who helped fight against Zhan Tiri the first time around

Edmund (or at least, the Monarch that came before him) was the one who gave the Mind Trap to the Keeper, since he didn't have Any itent to use it

The place where the Mind Trap was was very Hush Hush, Cassandra only found out thanks to Zhan Tiri finding it out herself, BUT the existence of the Mind Trap was at least well known in the DK and was one of the 'cons' to joining the Brotherhood

The Mind Trap was originally meant to make sure that the Brotherhood wouldn't turn against the crown, the moonstone And to make sure that if a fight every happened, they would act in harmony. It's a 'made with good itentions, Very Bad Execution type of thing'

Eugene didn't reject his royal title from the DK, but he won't be it's King Outside of possibly becoming a temporary one until one of his and Rapunzel's kids are old enough to take over

To try and fix the plothole in season 3: people Forgot that Quirin was a Brotherhood member AND they had contacted (or at least TRIED TO) Adira and Hector at some point and they thought they weren't under Cassandra's control

Eugene grew a couple of inches between the movie and the series and that was because the two times he was healed by Rapunzel, he was healed

People either think that Cassandra was dead OR Cassandra was actually banned from Corona (and the Dark Kingdom) - she isn't getting away without consequences people

Varian had a therapist while in prison that he was forced to see, wether or not they worked or if they were a Saporian spy I haven't decided yet

The ACTUAL reason why the resistence against the Saporian was so small wasn't because of 'loyalty to the crown', it was because they had tried and it Blew on their faces and thus King Frederik and Queen Arianna aren't the only victims of memory wipe. Rapunzel doesn't know this because, well, would you admit to the rebellion to the crown?

Eugene and Lance, later on, are volunteers on Orphanages in Corona and Eugene got a LOT of funds given to them and goes to personally check to see if they are being used properly and that the kids are being taken care of well

the DK fondly call Eugene the 'fail prince' not because of anything he did but because his fighting skills are far below what the royal standard was.

I said this before but: The Queen of the Dark Kingdom trid to destroy the Moonstone, possibly because she was plagued by nightmares of what would happen in the future/of the stone hurting the Kingdom and her family

Queen of the Dark Kingdom

[noperopesaredope]

Hey, so I know that I said I would be discontinuing the OG TSYHitD, but a few days ago, I ended up finishing what was originally meant to be the second to last chapter of the original fic. I decided to post it and will finish the OG fic while still continuing the rewritten version. But for all you old fans of the OG fic, here is the chapter you've been waiting the past few years for!

[animystsoul]

To queen up, is to speak up

If you sit with this dark

Warrior queen archetype

She will show you

That this is the form of women

That men fears so—

She holds the power to give life—

The authority to wield raw power—

Commanding the laws of Nature

To rain or not

By the blood synchrony cycle—

She entrains with the interlocking,

& co-regulating seasonal cycles

& patterns of Nature

This dark feminine

Was the first magician,

Through the entrainment of cycles

Because she embodies the moon cycle

Of oscillating light & dark periods

(& light intensity regulates the pineal third eye

& the endocrine-autonomic systems)

She could enter the cycles,

& in turn effect the patterns

Man felt betrayed by this unequal

Command of power,

felt humiliated by the women’s

deep seeing

(the story of Lilith & Adam)

So the story began of man opposing

Women’s spiritual power

They entered women’s sacred space

By overpowering with physical force

They took for themselves

What does not naturally

belong to them

they abuse & misuse

because they cannot feel

its subtle flow

Entering the domain of women

The menstrual blood hut temple

Of regulating with the laws of Nature & Spirits

Was the first act of “colonisation”

Claiming the power, the source of wealth

Removing the women from blood magic

taking them away from the red hut

& putting them in patriarchal households

to labour domestically

has weakened women’s power

to stand up strong

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE ANSHSJKDJDHSHDHDHDH!

I will definitely be using her for inspiration for the Dark Kingdom women. Definitely. She is a ✨QUEEN✨

Haha!🤣

So in the tangled server,,, I went off how Edmund’s wife was basic and she should have been more unique, then I went to her being the one that should have lived, and now we’re at her being replacement Edmund, and he’s dead, she lives. She’s the warrior queen mother we deserve.

So here’s a sort of redesign? 

ANYWAYS big noses are pretty so we had that we’re not doing that all noses with a bridge are evil smh.

  i couldnt resist giving her feral eyes im sorry

The following is not a COVID related ask. This is a William related ask. (And also a bit of a rant from an impulsive defender of normal things people do in their regular normal things)

During the Olympics, ie., peak summer time, Catherine was smack vamg in the middle of her treatment. Whether it was immunotherapy or chemo is anyone's guess, but we know she was still doing it. And it had just about been 6 months since her major abdominal surgery, where they likely took parts of some vital organ out which had cancer.

Now, all of that is not made-up. It's from her own statements and palace briefings. Understand the gravity of the situation - an organ taken out! Months and months of chemo! That's huge! It's brutal. It's scary. And everyday is different. It takes a toll on the patient. And on those around them. The patient may not look sick enough to satisfy the cynics, and may even get out of the house and (horror of all horrors!) look happy. But they are still under major stress.

So, it's perfectly acceptable and even admirable that William (or any husband) would choose to stay close, remain in the country and be with their wife and take care of the emotional needs of their wife and children during this time. Instead of attending the Olympics, which for him would have been officical royal work.

They diployed Anne, tim, Sophie for that. And they did amazing work with the Team GB. How and why is that not important enough for the sentiments of some cynics??

And going to the concert, with their children and friends. And to a game is perfectly normal. Infact, going to a game of football is like blood and oxygen to most British people. It's that normal. Going to the pub is beyond normal. Where else would you eat on a Sunday?? Call it culture or whatever, it's just a very regular thing. It's not something that William or any other dad should be criticized for.

But of course, if you are looking for reasons to get offended...or to find fault...then sure. Go ahead. No matter how much I, or other anons or RTA herself tries to explain won't matter.

Which brings me to .... I think this excesstcditicism of William over small things is beginning to look like deliberate sabotage in the media. Like an orchestrated pr campaign that targets people to change public opinion. I know it's par for course in the media to be critical of royals. And they can't say anything bad about the king, the queen, Anne or the Edinburghs. So that only leaves William and Kate. But it's so illogical.

Add to that, Harry's rehab attempts. The bizzare justifications of why Charles wants him back (which seems more manifestation that reality) and how William is the only stubborn grump blocking poor little lost Hawwwwy ... It looks like someone is carrying out a long-term destabilisation of Williams public image. It's slow but it's been happening very deliberately since late last year.

Which I think would coincide with Harry's attempts to get back to UK and the desolution of his marriage. Hints of cam's PR rehab over 20 years. I think this is Harry's British PR firm working in the dark that we are seeing.

I’m getting “Camilla’s PR rehab” vibes too now, especially after that Express article arguing sympathy for Harry because Hollywood exploited him.

The sad thing is that a lot of us predicted Charles would do something like this and that he’d try to expedite Harry’s image rehabilitation because he just doesn’t have the kind of time for a 20-year strategy. We’ll see if it works.

Stop Calling Him 'Horace'! - A Dark Queen & Edmund Story Chapter 2: Child of the Moonstone Current word count: 3440 Rated T I can't exactly explain why, but I always agonize over new material when is released for this fandom. Multiple reasons. I had begun to see several spoilers crop up on Tumblr today (May 12 2021) regarding the upcoming novel about the supposed origin story of Flynn Rider.

So far, I have only actually read ONE (the very first) spoiler-filled excerpt. No worries, I will not spoil my readers. I'll just say that I see some fun things that I do like but a whole lot that frustrates me....and all within one mere excerpt.

As such, I can promise that this fic will almost certainly not be canonically compliant with this upcoming novel.....especially given the fact that I started writing it over a year ago. (As evidenced by published dates.)

I've had most of this 2nd chapter written since perhaps 30-40 days after the first chapter was posted over a year ago....I just couldn't ever polish it to a degree that I liked it and the spoilers I read helped to solidify a lot of my own headcanon vs Disney canon vs fanon. General Story refresher: King Edmund had always assumed his late wife Queen Alexys had come around to accept the fact that he was going to name their son "Horace". While they had fought on it quite a lot, to Edmund's surprise, Alexys had dropped the subject entirely once their son was born. Not long after that....the unfortunate incident with the Moonstone happened and Alexys was killed.

It would take an inordinate amount of stubbornness, an unusual series of events, and interminable amount of time before Edmund would finally discover his wife's secrets about their child and how, even without present-day Eugene's admonitions, Edmund had always mistakenly used the name "Horace" when addressing their son. Chapter 2 Summary: Queen Alexys is consumed with visions. King Edmund is consumed with.....what, exactly?? With next-to-nobody to discuss her visions, Alexys writes and journalizes everything that she can, with the intent to discuss it all with Edmund once he becomes himself again. The Queen, prompted by both hunger to learn and divine anything of value in her visions and a desperation to get through to her ever-fracturing husband, pours her heart out within several epistles. After a particularly jarring dream, it seems that her cherished newborn has finally decided to try joining them in the real world!

Chapter Two: Child of the Moonstone

Queen Alexys had had that same vivid dream several nights in succession, sometimes more than once per night, and always with little variants each time. As a result, she began cataloguing everything in her diary.

One time, Alexys continued the first conversation with her little boy, regarding the baby girl.

“And…..is she a friend of the King?” She wished to know so much more about this baby girl, but not knowing quite how to ask. The little boy nodded rapidly. “And friend of the Kingdom?” More toddler nodding. “And me?” The little boy seemed genuinely stymied by this question. It was the only thing she’d asked about so far for which he didn’t have an instant answer. He finally settled upon saying, “She does….love you a lot too, mama.” For the first time, he seemed a little bit...sad? Why did he appear to show confusion upon her question about she, herself, being friends with the mystery child too?

Hmm...Alexys thought…..this is such a conundrum! Supposedly this baby sunshine girl wasn’t her friend but loved her anyway…..oy. Divining toddler speech was proving to be particularly difficult. Especially when it’s coming from your own knackered preggy-brained mind, thought Lexy with some frustration.

Within this dream, Lexy couldn’t help emitting a lengthy dramatic sigh. She suddenly noticed the little boy was copying her motions and the way she had just sighed. She laughed in spite of herself. He laughed with her. Little angel, she thought, and not for the first time. His lips were so red, his cheeks so rosy pink, and his eyelashes so long that he almost resembled a life-sized doll.

“So….what is your name?” Alexys suddenly asked the boy, wishing to settle the outside argument with Edmund once and for all.

“Name?” he echoed.

“Erm….yes, Little One. What do people call you?” Lexy continued.

“I am….the Child of the Moonstone,” he answered solemnly. His sweet exuberance had been quelled almost instantly. It was the longest sentence she’d ever heard him say, and it was with a weariness no toddler should possess. The babygirl squeals of laughter had quieted entirely with his declaration. In fact, Alexys could’ve sworn she could physically feel emotional pain roiling off her small child. As he mentioned his connection with the Moonstone, all the light and joy hadn’t merely seeped out of her son’s face….it was seeping out of Lexy’s very dream…..until even the sun itself had begun to dim. Although the stark change in their environment shocked her….she nonetheless felt compelled to continue the conversation with her son.

“And does….does the Moonstone make you sad?” Alexys carefully asked him. She had always fretted that the gloomy Dark Palace was no place to raise a child.

The boy nodded, his limpid dark eyes filling with tears. “So lonely,” he said, cautiously approaching Alexys. “But with our Sunshine, we don't hafta be lonely again.” He reached out to touch the ethereal baby girl’s button nose and gave her a toddler “kiss” on the forehead in the form of nosy-nuzzles. Sunshine Baby herself was again babbling and laughing. Lexy’s heart nearly filled to bursting when her little dream boy looked up at her once more, smiling beneath his tears, the child-like wonder restored within his expressive eyes. And just like that, all the light and happiness was restored within her dream. Please, don’t ever be sad like that ever again! Ever!!! Alexys willed her vision, almost hyperventilating with emotion. Exactly who is this child of light that makes my son so happy??

“Who are you, Baby Sun Drop?” Alexys asked the glittering image within her arms. “Why does she make you so happy, Little One?” she asked of her boy. For the first time, she allowed herself to physically reach out to her vision-son. As her hand made contact with his cherubic rosy cheek, he leaned into her touch, causing Lexy’s heart to warm with happy tingles once more.

“Before her, everything went dark. It’s ‘cos I lose you, Mama,” her boy explained softly. Lexy held her breath without realizing….not sure if she should just let him speak or encourage him with more questions. She never wanted him to lose her!! Whatever did he mean by that?? It was quite difficult to interpret his meanings, due in large part to the way he constantly mixed verb tenses and timelines. Then he continued, “I lose all, all of everything...my home, my mama, my daddy…. even my own name. So things are even darker for awhile.” Scant though his details were, Alexys’s natural instinct was to protect him, somehow shield him from the very words that her boy was speaking. So she raised her right arm -- the one not cradling the ethereal child -- and invited her son into her one-armed embrace. The sweet toddler boy readily accepted and snuggled up right against her. Rather than any dream child, to her, he feels so alive and warm and….real. The mere thought that she might lose him the way he says, especially now, before she had even gotten to meet him in person….why, Alexys could scarcely bear thinking about it.

“But one day, Mama -- I do find the light again. I will find you again. Daddy, too. And it’s all because I find….my Sunshine.” He reached down and the glittery babygirl clutched his own small thumb in her tiny fist and they both giggled together.

Yet Alexys’s reaction was far more subdued. What he had just said rocked the queen to her core. Could this possibly be true? That their son eventually loses everything? Please just let this be my own overly tired mind and not an omen of the actual future! she pled fruitlessly of the Fates. Although her boy had basically said everything turns out okay, Lexy couldn’t help but fret over exactly what happens during the intervening years before he finds himself again. This vision felt far more detailed and possessed a more heavy realness than any dream or nightmare she’d yet had. And so she wrote about it. For even if Edmund had become impossible to speak with right now, she would definitely tell him later about these….visions of hers.

(0)(0)(0)(0)(0)

Suddenly, Alexys found herself within another powerful waking vision: the boy toddler who started out by her side was instantly on top of the tree again, within the span of one eye-blink. With his back toward Lexy, her boy turned around, only to fling the dazzlingly bright Drop of Sun directly at the Dark Palace. And it wasn’t merely dark….the whole structure now appeared dead, nothing lighted from within, and it was already half-destroyed by enormous black spikes.

As if in slow motion, the Sun Drop blazed a tiny comet-like path from the top of the tree and it impacted the miniature Dark Palace dead-center of the Black Crystal Canyon. The entire shrunken Palace and its surrounding environs lit up with the impact and were enveloped within a blinding nuclear whiteness that spread out in concentric rings and consumed everything it touched. Then all that had been painted with this whiteness -- all from the prime tower of the Dark Palace radiating outward to the edge of Crystal Canyon, abruptly exploded in a blue-white-hot supernova, sweeping away everything in its path.

(0)(0)(0)(0)(0)

Immediately Lexy’s eyes flew open and she sat bolt upright in bed as quickly as she could following this dream. “Edmund! Please -- wake up! We have--” but she looked over to her side and saw that the bed was empty. She was sleeping alone. Again. It was the third night that week they turned down their bedlamps together and the third night Edmund had been bothered enough to quietly get up and abandon her in their bed chamber. Just what was it that kept eating away at her husband so much that it was now robbing him of sleep? Alexys had a feeling she may already know the answer and fervently wished she could lend just a little bit of her own family’s natural resistance to the Moonstone’s effects to her husband. Maybe then he would stop spending so much time alone in the orb’s cavern, obsessing over how he could possibly destroy it once and for all. Yet before she could swing both legs over the edge of the bed, Alexys had flung open the comforter and saw that everything surrounding her from the hips down was soaked in warm liquid. Alexys coached herself not to panic; she had been preparing herself for this for months now, after all. When the queen tried to push herself off the bed, however, she was instantly seized with dazzling blue-white lightning pain that shot out across her lower back and bisected her pelvis up the center, cut down her legs and to her knees, causing her to scream mightily at the top of her lungs. "Screw not panicking!!", she half-cried, half-yelled to herself. "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDMMMUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNDDD!!! roared the lionesse, her voice ringing throughout every corridor in the dark palace.

I’d Like To Remind Y’all Of The Disney Couple Of All Disney Couples

[tangledinraps]

happy mother’s day to these literal queens ❤️❤️

[mrfandomwars]

I'm watching Tangled The Series/Rapunzel Tangled Adventures and like The idea that the Queen Of The Dark Kingdom tried to destroy the Moonstone Opal before Edmund did is very dear to me.

[arcadianmoonshadowjedi]

First Drawing in my sketchbook is of Fitzmom! (Who my headcanon name for is Irene 😊) I've always wanted to know more about her and her story but I guess that's what writing fanfic is for! (Planning to get back to writing her backstory very soon!)

[tangledfanlove]

Hey guys so I've been thinking about this for awhile now and I got the idea from watching an episode of Grandfather's and I'm thinking that what if Eugene got his big ears from his mom and like that why in her portrait you see her having really big earrings because she's trying to use that to make it seem like she have smaller ears and what if she hates her big ears like him Please tell me what you think because i think it's so funny and makes me feel closer to the dark queen

[puppetonstrings]

Headcanon: Edmund met DQ (Dark Queen) by asking her if she wanted some of his figgy pudding.

[rendellstreet]

Not to sound bitter or anything (for real this was a GREAT episode) but like

Cass waltz right pass Edmund and no reaction? At all? Like okay you can chalk it up to him already knowing or being informed she took the Moonstone but no urgent “hey you really shouldn’t be using it” or “don’t let it fill your mind with lies!” because. That was a thing Edmund warned right? He warned about the Moonstone filling people’s minds with absolute baloney.

If not that, just in general Edmund feels so... underutilized? No one asking him more questions about the Moonstone? Or any kind of father step-daughter bonding with Rapunzel? Or questions about the Brotherhood? Does he know where Adira is? Hector? Is he aware of Quirin at all?

ALSO just, no mentioning or reference to the Dark Kingdom’s queen? We’re just gonna mentioned she’s six feet under and that’s it? No “oh you’re mother would’ve loved to see this/Oh my wife would’ve loved to meet you Rapunzel”

Just??? I would like some answers to some questions 

[emsprovisions]

Just to clarify nothing’s wrong with Ricky! I just loved this episode so much and I’m so proud and happy for him. But also everything in that episode was so perfect and amazing. Like the Trevor bits (who is his favorite character to write about) and the New Dream bits and my sweet smol bean Eugene freaking out and wanted his sunshine to just love him so much I’m. Thanks Ricky for everything you do for this fandom :,)))
