My Main Masterlist

Series Premise: A collection of stories of the journey 12-year-old Crown Princess Eleanor Rys of Cordonia indertakes as she officially starts her Royal education. Tutors and advisors, that had been personally selected by Their Majesties King Liam Rys and Queen Riley Rys, were set to begin her royal lessons, and her days were packed full of knowledge. The young princess was a natural leader, and the King and Queen could not be more proud of their daughter.   

Royal Adventures 

-Prologue- 

Busy days turned into busy evenings when Ellie Rys enjoyed her free time. As a 12-year-old, her parents wanted her to enjoy her childhood as long as she could, but the Crown Princess' life was going to change forever when she would reach her coming of age, and she would be required to take her place at court, as her father had taken previously. 

Ellie knew her parents had a strong bond, and their love for one another was the reason their country had remained at peace for well over a decade. The Princess had always felt safe and secure, knowing she was loved and cherished. 

Ellie didn't have a typical royal upbringing and was a carefree and happy child.  Liam was more than happy that his children had an American mother as a role model, that grew up in a world of freedom.

She didn't have the same pressures that other royal children had, but the pressure would eventually start to mount in the next few years as she would grow older and need to learn more about the world and her duties of a future Queen.

Liam and Riley made it a point to ensure their kids were well-adjusted and had a happy childhood. 

They'd taken trips all over the world, and their favorite place was New York, where they'd visited during the last Christmas season. 

Ellie had seen the Rockefeller Center Tree, the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, and the Staten Island Ferry. However, what she enjoyed the most was the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and the Broadway musical 'Wicked'. 

She'd been mesmerized by the performances and sang along to the music. Liam and Riley couldn't help but chuckle at their daughter's enthusiasm. 

"What?" she'd asked innocently, with her big blue eyes and her cute dimples. 

"You remind me of myself at your age," Liam replied, wrapping his arms around her shoulders and pulling her close. 

"I can't wait until we go back to New York," she'd exclaimed, as the family flew back to Cordonia on their private jet.

"Me either, Princess, but we'll make sure you have many more happy memories at home," Liam said, and planted a kiss on the top of her head. 

*** 

Liam walked into his study, after he escorted Ellie to the royal library for her first royal lesson. As he watched his daughter attentively listen and interact with the history tutor, the pride he felt was all consuming. He couldn't believe his little girl was growing up so fast. It seemed like only yesterday when he and Riley were watching their newborn daughter take her first steps. 

It was later in the afternoon when he looked up from his laptop to see Riley's soft smile as she walked in and closed the door behind her. 

"Hello, love. How was Ellie's lesson?" Liam stood and walked around his desk to greet his wife with a kiss.

"It was great, Li ... she's a natural. The tutor was impressed." Riley grinned as Liam smiled wide.

"Of course, she is. She's a Rys." 

"She's just like her father. Always eager to learn new things," Riley teased, kissing him softly in return. 

"And her mother. Ellie has the heart of a fighter, and she's smart, brave, and kind." 

"I hope she's ready for all of this. It's a lot to handle."  Riley sighed, biting her lip.

"She will be. She's surrounded by love and support, and we will always be here for her."

Ellie's first day was going well, until ....

Leo had a mischievous grin on his face as he crept towards the library. 

"Leo, what are you up to?" Maxwell asked as he noticed him peering through the gap between the double solid oak doors of the Royal library.

"SSHHH! ... You'll see," he replied in a hushed tone.

"Come on, man, don't pull anything stupid," Drake warned him as he walked up to join Maxwell.

"Just watch and learn, boys." 

Leo peeked through the space and saw the tutor reading a textbook to Ellie. He knew it would only be a few minutes before the lesson was over, and he had to act fast. 

He reached into his bag and pulled out a remote control.

Leo found a way to sneak a glitter bomb into the library without anyone noticing earlier in the day. He'd done it a million times at parties, and he knew it would create a big mess. 

"This is going to be epic," he muttered. 

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Drake whispered.

"Oh, come on, Drake, it's harmless. I've done this tons of times. Watch and learn, boys. " 

"Fine, we'll see," Maxwell shrugged. 

Leo took a deep breath, and with one flick of his wrist, the balloon was triggered and exploded with a loud pop.

As it burst, the glitter covered everything, and the sound of the balloon burst startled everyone. 

The tutor had a look of horror on her face, and Eleanor was shocked, standing up and moving quickly away from the table.

"Oh no," Leo whispered. 

"This is not what I was expecting. Shit." 

"Well, you better think of something quick," Drake shouted.

Through the gap in the door, Ellie spotted her uncle. Her brow furrowed, she pushed the heavy oak door forward.

"I can't believe you, Uncle Leo," Eleanor scowled, "you've ruined my first royal lesson." 

"I'm sorry, El, it was supposed to be a harmless prank." Leo looked at his neice regretfully.

"Well, you ruined everything. I can't even look at you right now. " 

"I'm so sorry. I was just trying to make things fun. I was always bored in these sessions, and I was just trying to lighten the mood." 

"You are the worst Uncle, ever, you know that?"

Leo raised his eyebrows and chuckled. "Oh, come on Ellie, you know it's all in good fun." Ellie was fuming, "Uncle Leo, you've made me feel awful, and I can't believe you would embarrass me like that."  

"Hey...hey, Ellie, don't be upset. You have nothing to be ashamed of." 

"Really? How can you say that after what you did? I want Daddy to be proud of me. I want it that way!" 

Crossing her arms, Ellie stared down her uncle, smirking, "wait till mom finds out!" 

"Wait, you wouldn't. Not your favorite uncle," Leo pleaded. 

"Maybe, maybe not, depends how you behave from now on." 

"Alright, I'll do anything, just don't tell your parents." 

"Anything?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. 

"I will not be your servant again, though."  Leo thought back to an earlier prank gone wrong, and shuddered.

"Then don't mess with my lessons again! Deal?" 

"Deal."  Leo sighed.

Drake and Maxwell were speechless as they watched their friend and their niece, banter with each other.

"Wow, El, you've got your uncle Leo wrapped around your little finger."

"I have no idea what you are talking about, Max. I'm a reformed man." Leo admonished.

"Yeah, whatever you say, Leo." Drake snorted.

"Okay, okay, free drinks at the beer garden. Now ... are you two going to help me clean up or not?"

A mutineer has seized control of your ship's defenses, locked out all of the crew, and started the prelaunch systems. You have one hour to retake the ship or at least access its radio, or you might live out the rest of your lives on a hostile alien world with no chance of rescue.

I unironically love toxic queer ships. Like, whats the fun of being gay in fiction if it’s not at least a little bit messy?? I like lesbians who share a toxic friendship filled with jealousy and communication problems that will either lead to years of trauma or a beautiful relationship (no in between) and gay dudes who want to snap each other’s necks just as much as they wish they could fuck each other. Not like I dont enjoy some fluffy fics or heartstopper once in a while, but, like, i also want that tension of when Ballister and Ambrosius are trying to kill esch other, I want to see Needy killing Jennifer just to avenge her later, I want The Star and Bonnie to die together while thinking about how things could have turned out if they were different, I want Eleanor to destroy Drea’s life and take everything she ever loved away from her just to wipe her tears and tell her that it’s gonna be alright, I want Bruce to keep trying and trying to reach for Harvey over and over again even though both of them know it’s never going to work because he’s already too far gone, I NEED that angst in my life

hello friends

ok well for those of you who tuned in to last week's episode, in which we met Aprakas, the level 10 True Kin Child of the Wheel (a woman in possession of two axes and a bad attitude) i'm afraid i have some unfortunate news. Yeah, in the noble pursuit of dismembering everything in sight, she may have slightly run into a scorpiock or ten and got a little bit poisoned to death. also i was playing in classic mode, ie permadeath, so umm bye Aprakas thanx 4 the memories rip in peace

ANYWAY meet Syyuwar (who is naming the children in this family? someone needs to have a word honestly)..

Born under a bad moon, Syyuwar (I think her friends would probably call her Syyu -pronounced Shoe- if she had any) has been "blessed" with a remarkable resistance to psychic attack and an extremely unstable genome.

Syyu is Aprakas' granddaughter and has set out for Qud to discover the fate of her reverend forebear. She's wearing a robe, her hair is shaved close to her skull, and she's the type of girl to get a nosebleed (eyebleed? perhaps) when telepathically frying her enemies' brains (she has a lot of enemies. In fact the default state of most creatures she meets appears to be "enemy". What can I say? she takes after her dear grandma). think goth Eleven, or harrowhark nonagesimus kinda vibe. like if a half-drowned rat could walk and talk and set you on fire by looking at you funny. Syyu is a little meow-meow of extremely dubious morality

here is Syuu on a fine Qud morning taking a stroll in some desert canyons with a nice watervine farmer she -ahem- persuaded to come along to help (she's just a very persuasive half-drowned rat demon child, OKAY)

I SURE HOPE NOTHING BAD HAPPENS TO HER (in Qud? something bad happening? the very idea)

spoilers: oh dear

it looks like something bad happened to her. maybe she's more of a Ianthe than a Harrow after all..

i mean, maybe we can find someone to sew it back on again, right?

well, tune in next time for further adventures of Shoe in the

Caves of Qud

until thennnn~~~live n drink friendos :3

[editors note: we're playing roleplay mode now so canonically speaking, if anything really bad happens to her (ie worse than having her arm cut off by a snapjaw skullsplitter) then she's gonna be waking up in the nearest village with an even worse headache than usual but otherwise, yknow, not dead]

AiO Thought of the Week

I need a Wooton and Penny host Thanksgiving episode.

The guest list will include:

Bradford,

Penny's Parents, (Penny’s dad and Bradford are still a little at odds unfortunately)

Wooton's parents (yes both of them and Wooton's dad initiated it because he genuinely wanted to see Penny again but no he and Wooton are in no way reconciled and they still won't be by the end of this episode,)

Wellington for sure and his wife maybe (if she exists I'm not convinced)

Talia doesn't need to physically attend but if she doesn't they have to say she horseback riding in Mongolia

Penny's sister and her husband have to come ideally with their baby but if the baby still isn't born we can work with that too

Along with Wooton's grandfather getting a shout out, Mrs Randalof is mentioned to have bake them a pie which she dropped off the day before, the charity Wooton's cousin runs will be referenced, and Hadley makes a brief phone call cameo.

Will this be a chaotic mess of an episode both on a writting and sound design level? Yes. What will the Chris wrap up be about? Loving your family even if they're a lot like that one episode where all of the Parkers' extend family took over their house for a week.
