#sorry for rambling but this ask gave me the warm fuzzies 💕🥰

I could see other ladies that are questioning or definitely aware of being into other ladies like Meyrin and Sieglind looking at Grelle and Madam Red for advice and stuff ❤️

If Madame Red had lived, I can easily envision the doctor taking Sieglinde under her wing. An intelligent, driven young lady in STEM? Even if Siggy wasn’t already friends with her nephew, Angelina would have immediately declared herself the girl’s surrogate auntie. So imagine that, one day, Madame is visiting Sieglinde’s lab to discuss the German prodigy’s latest research findings. However, she notices that the girl seems distracted, absentmindedly fidgeting with a set of forceps while gazing off at nothing in particular. Sieglinde eventually lapses into silence before blurting out, “Auntie An…when did you realize you had feelings for Auntie Grelle?” (In this AU, Grelle and Madame abandoned their murderous escapades in favor of a relatively peaceful life together) All in a rush, the girl explains that she thinks she might have a crush on Lizzy. She’s never felt this way about anyone before…but how on earth is she supposed to classify these baffling new emotions? And then Madame sits Sieglinde down, patiently answering her questions and assuring her protégée that she can always count on her love and support.

I can also see Mey Rin asking Grelle for relationship advice over tea, pouring her heart out to the reaper. Maybe she’s about to go on her first date with Paula (Paulamey is cute and valid, and that’s a hill on which I’m fully prepared to die), but she’s nervous as can be, yes she is! What’s the proper decorum for the beginning of a courtship? What should she wear? Where should they go on their first outing—and how do they fly under the radar of bigots who might take umbrage at their relationship? The glamorous goddess is happy to share her wisdom with darling Mey Mey, even helping her pick out a dress and assisting with hair and makeup for the special evening.

OR…perhaps an extremely flustered Mey seeks Grelle’s counsel on a different matter: Confessing to a certain lady. She’s beautiful, witty, strong, and perfect as can be, yes she is! The maid fears that the object of her affections will surely turn her down, as she probably has an army of suitors clamoring at her door, she does, but Mey Rin’s determined to shoot her shot! 😤 Miss Sutcliff encourages the mortal not to despair—one ought to be bold when it comes to matters of love! “And don’t sell yourself short, darling; whoever your fair lady might be, she’s a lucky woman,” the reaper adds, a touch of wistfulness clouding her brilliant green eyes. Mey Rin blushes—little does Grelle suspect that she’s the very woman the maid’s been pining after!
