"Hey, don't touch my stuff!" ―@your-dandy-king

"And now the crystal seems to have changed its bearer, yet the exhaustion remains..." ―@the-adventures-of-lydia-brown

―-―-―-―-―-―-―-―-―

Lannes: GET! OFF! SOULTS! HEAD! YOU! DAMNED! DEVIL! CRYSTAL!

Thwack! Thwack! Thwack! Thwack! And then two things happen at once: Soult, navigating very precisely in a line towards the house, steps onto the meteor hole. Lannes' blade collides with the crackling and damaged crystal. Soult promptly trips and falls into the meteor pit, Lannes sprawling after him as the latter being distracted by crystal violence loses his balance. Lannes’ landing sounds very, very heavy, and the sound of a little splintering wood can be heard.

Lannes: AÏE!!!

And the blasted crystal falls onto the ground nearby, finally freed from someone's head. It is sparking and smoking, like some kind of malfunctioning technology, and twitching, as if it might just jump up onto someone's head at any moment.

Soult: Nnngh..!

Lannes… for the most part, is fine, but startled. Soult… is currently and will be feeling that.

Félicitations ! The stars of the evening have chosen you as dance and conversational partners for the waltz and/or quadrille. This thread is for you two to at least talk to each other and either get along or don't get along in an entertaining way.

The entrance to the ball may be found here, with more information and activities to partake in.

We would suggest describing your mask and greeting as a good starting point. Bonne chance !

—·—·—·—·—·—·—·—·—·—·—·—

Here are some Out Of Character things to keep in mind:

You're both wearing masks, and might not recognise each other even if you know each other. Maybe if you want to be able to recognise your partner, ask OOCly first if you can.

For the specific dance partner threads, only post if you're a participant.

There's no word count requirement for roleplay posts. We encourage shorter, conversational posts to promote interaction, but we won't police writing styles.

Real life takes priority, so please be understanding if dance partners don't respond quickly. We hope for a conversation to develop within 2-4 weeks.

If your dance partner is unresponsive and you're eager to participate, use the general mingle threads. You might find a new partner or even ask a host or staff member to dance.

Remember, this is an in-character high-class event with etiquette expectations. While your character can be rude, avoid excessive disruptions. The focus should be on conversation and relationships.

Remember that in-character actions don't reflect out-of-character feelings. If a character is rude IC, don't take it personally OOC. If you do have any concerns, the messages will be open on this blog.

We wish you a most pleasant encounter, and may fortune smile upon you and joy guide your steps!

😴 for Lydia?

(It's understandable if you had no dreams about someone you only met like three times at most, though)

Send 😴 for a dream my muse has had about yours @the-adventures-of-lydia-brown

Gotta admit that most of the dreams ive been describin are from the time before i came here!

i dont really sleep much these days but sometimes i have a nap when things get really boring

in one of those naps i was dreamin that i was standing in the garden and a whole big swarm of butterflies landed on me

their wings were like book pages or music notes

couldnt tell them to get off or go away!

and then it started raining.

Bory de Saint-Vincent, standing near the door to the theatre, under the beautiful facade under the eternal night sky of Bessieres' domain, currently standing in for a bored Saint-Chamans, sees a familiar woman heading straight to the door and runs over.

Bory: Your Highness- wait! This is very dangerous place- you can't-

He fails to stop her from opening the door.

On the other side, Lannes is nodding at @the-adventures-of-lydia-brown's description of her singing prowess though he has absolutely no idea what any of what she is talking about.

Lannes: Sounds like you know your singing business!!! most of the songs i know are too rude for this place-

And then the voice of a panicked woman cuts the air. A damsel is in danger!

Soult: We must not act hastily. It may be a trap-

Welp, there goes Duroc! And then the door behind the party opens, again, revealing a certain Queen of Naples, @carolinemurat herself.

Lameth looks behind him at the woman who he joked too hard about that he ended up disgraced and having to leave Murat's staff over and then he immediately says

Lameth: The lioness of Naples has come to fetch her husband from his indiscretions, it seems!

Petiet facepalms.

Soult: ... Hush, colonel. Your Majesty- I suppose you are also wishing to join our party.

Lannes: soult you go catch her majesty up and stick with her im goin after duroc and that woman!!! youre also comin with me lil colonel!!!

Lannes points at Petiet, grabs his arm and runs after Duroc, leaving Soult, Lameth and maybe Lydia behind. Bory closes the door.

(( group tag @your-dandy-king @carolinemurat @the-adventures-of-lydia-brown @askgeraudduroc, guessing either the narration, caroline or lydia goes next))

((Reference previous posts: 1, 2))

In the better lighting provided by Duroc and Nixa, it's clear the painting is still rolling its eyes at Soult. Maybe its expression was supposed to be beatific, but now it just comes off as embarrassed.

The initial party of @armagnac-army, @murillo-enthusiast, @askgeraudduroc, are interrupted by a metallic scrape when Saint-Chamans opens the front door of the opera house to escort @the-symphony-of-lydia-brown through. As he swings the door open, the entire building seems to sigh, and a breeze rushes through, and threatening to snuff the lanterns. Something very big, and very hungry, lets out a roar from deep within the depths of the theatre.

How does the party wish to proceed?

[1919] The cobbled streets of Birmingham.

The story of how Lydia (and Arthur) convinced Tommy to let her keep a Great Dane who followed her home.

[Part of The Lydia Saga]

The overcast sky hung low over Birmingham, casting a muted grey hue over the bustling streets of Small Heath. Lydia Shelby was undeterred by the threat of rain. With her inquisitive eyes sparkling with the promise of adventure, and her dark hair neatly braided, she embodied both the innocence of childhood and the daring spirit that ran through her family's veins. Her mischievous grin widened with each step as she navigated the cobblestone alleys, her small boots delighting in the splash and splatter of puddles underfoot.

Despite her tender age, Lydia possessed an insatiable curiosity that often led her far beyond the watchful gaze of her family. Today, she was on a mission, driven by stories of hidden treasures and secret places whispered among the neighbourhood children. The alleys of Small Heath, with their mix of bustling market stalls and shadowy corners, seemed to Lydia a labyrinth of possibilities—each turn promising new discoveries and excitement.

As she made her way deeper into the heart of the district, the familiar sounds of the city faded, replaced by the distant clatter of train tracks and the occasional bark of a stray dog. As Lydia wandered deeper into the maze of alleyways, the sounds of the bustling city gradually gave way to a quieter, almost secretive atmosphere. The air was filled with the faint scent of coal smoke and damp earth, creating an aura of mystery that only fueled her adventurous spirit. Her ears perked up at a peculiar rustling sound emanating from behind a stack of weathered wooden crates, their surfaces worn smooth by years of use.

Curiosity surged through her, and Lydia tiptoed cautiously towards the source of the noise, her small heart pounding with a mixture of excitement and trepidation. Each step felt deliberate and momentous, as if she were stepping into the pages of a grand adventure tale. As she peered around the edge of the crates, her eyes widened in astonishment at the sight before her.

Looming large in the dim light was a Great Dane, its presence both majestic and gentle. Its coat was a striking shade of grey, with speckles of rusty brown adorning its ears and paws, creating a mosaic of colours that seemed almost painted by hand. The dog's eyes, large and soulful, met Lydia's with an expression that exuded both wisdom and warmth, as if it had been waiting for her all along.

"Hello, big fella," Lydia whispered, her voice an enchanting blend of awe and delight. The Great Dane, as if sensing a kindred spirit in the small girl, wagged its tail with an enthusiasm that belied its enormous size. The gentle thud of its tail against the crates echoed softly, a rhythmic accompaniment to Lydia's giggle.

Encouraged by the dog's response, Lydia reached out with a tentative hand, her fingers brushing against its velvety head. The dog obligingly lowered its great head to her level, inviting her touch with a grace that seemed almost regal. "You look like a Rusty," she decided aloud, giggling as the newly christened Rusty bestowed a slobbery kiss upon her cheek.

As Lydia turned to continue her journey through the winding streets, she noticed Rusty trailing a few paces behind her, his long legs moving with a cautious curiosity. With each step she took, Rusty followed, his presence a comforting shadow that lingered just out of reach. The two of them formed an unlikely pair, the little girl leading the way while her newfound companion watched over her.

Gradually, as if testing the waters of friendship, Rusty began to close the gap between them. His lolloping gait grew more confident, matching Lydia's pace until he was walking beside her, his tail swishing back and forth like a metronome. By the time Lydia reached the familiar confines of Watery Lane, Rusty was trotting faithfully at her side.

As Lydia approached the Shelby home, a familiar mix of excitement and apprehension danced in her chest. She adored her brothers, but she knew them well enough to understand that surprises were not always welcome—especially those with four legs and a wagging tail! Tommy, in particular, was a man who valued order and control, traits not easily reconciled with the spontaneous arrival of a massive canine.

Standing on the doorstep, Tommy Shelby cut a formidable figure, the sharp angles of his tailored suit accentuating his commanding presence. A cigarette hung idly from his lips, a thin wisp of smoke curling into the afternoon air. His keen eyes, ever watchful, narrowed as they settled on the unlikely duo approaching. A flicker of concern creased his brow as he took in the sight of the enormous dog padding alongside his little sister.

"Lydia," he called out, his voice carrying a note of both authority and underlying worry. "Who have you got there?"

Lydia, undaunted by her brother's stern demeanour, beamed up at him with her most radiant smile. "This is Rusty, Tommy. He followed me home!"

Tommy exhaled slowly, a plume of smoke escaping his lips as he crossed his arms over his chest. His mind raced with questions and potential complications. "Lydia, you can’t just bring a stray dog home. What if he’s dangerous? What if he belongs to someone else?"

Lydia paused for a moment, her eyes twinkling with mischief and a hint of the Shelby cunning. "Well, Tommy, you’re always saying to find strong allies, right? Look at Rusty! He’s bigger than Danny Whizz-bang and probably scarier too."

A corner of Tommy’s mouth twitched, betraying a suppressed smile. Lydia had a knack for disarming him with her innocence and clever reasoning.

"And besides," Lydia continued, her cheeky grin widening, "if Rusty belonged to someone else, wouldn’t I have seen someone looking for him by now? He’s not exactly easy to lose."

Tommy raised an eyebrow, momentarily caught off guard by her logic and the spark of Shelby wit she exhibited. He glanced at Rusty, who sat obediently beside Lydia, his eloquent eyes watching the exchange with quiet intelligence. "You make a fair point, little one," Tommy conceded, his tone softening, though he maintained his authoritative air. "But he’ll be a lot of responsibility."

Lydia, sensing that she was slowly winning Tommy over, pressed her advantage with the tact and charm of a seasoned negotiator. "You know, Tommy, I bet Rusty’d be great at keeping the house safe. Imagine having a giant dog like him guarding the front door!"

From the window, Arthur Shelby had been observing the scene with amusement. His broad grin was unmistakable as he pushed open the door and sauntered outside, his presence as boisterous and rugged as ever. "Oh, come on, Tommy," Arthur chimed in with a hearty laugh. "Look at the size of him! He’s practically a walking billboard for ‘Don’t Mess with the Shelbys.’ Who wouldn’t think twice seeing him on the doorstep?"

Tommy sighed, casting a sideways glance at Arthur, whose infectious laughter and mischievous twinkle in his eye made it hard to maintain a stern facade. Tommy ran a hand through his hair, a gesture of exasperation that masked his growing fondness for the idea. He shifted his gaze from Arthur’s grinning face to Lydia’s hopeful eyes, her pleading expression charming him more than he wanted to admit.

"Fine," Tommy relented, rolling his eyes but unable to completely stifle a small smile playing at the corner of his lips. "But he’s your responsibility, Lydia. You feed him, you clean up after him, and you make sure he doesn’t chew on my shoes."

Lydia squealed with joy, her face lighting up with pure delight as she threw her arms around Rusty's massive neck. The Great Dane, sensing his acceptance into the fold, wagged his tail with joyful enthusiasm.

Arthur clapped Tommy on the shoulder, his laughter still bubbling over. "See, brother? Even the toughest bookies in Birmingham need a soft spot somewhere."

Tommy shook his head, a rare warmth in his eyes as he watched Lydia with her new companion. "Just keep him out of the betting shop, Arthur. Last thing we need is Rusty collecting debts."

the napoleonic roleplay scene presents:

the phantoms of the opera

portrayed: @askgeraudduroc | @murillo-enthusiast and two ADCs | @armagnac-army | @the-adventures-of-lydia-brown | @carolinemurat

thank you to @your-dandy-king for running this~

and thank you to @trauma-and-truffles for coming in at the end and fixing some of us up~

originally this was just going to be my guys and their fucked up reflections which is why they’re so central but then I fiddled with it more so it’s more generally the part where people just kept walking in the door

also I didn’t realise people would join us which is why. I had so many guys in there. mild regrets.

anyway it was great fun and real spooky and funny at times!

[hyacinth-ldb]

Hail, and well met!

New blog, new blog! Sam here with a new adventure for you!

This is Hyacinth, my Nord LDB who has just set out on a quest with her two new companions, Larkspur (3dNPCs) and Lydia (Canon) to discover more about her destiny and what it means to be "Dragonborn".

You are will o' wisps, tiny glowing spirits of light that can speak to, guide, and in some ways hinder our adventurers as they trek across Skyrim and into some other parts of Tamriel. Be careful! Some actions can have very real consequences, both of the physical and intangible sorts!

Content warnings will be in post tags and will have "tw" first, for example: #tw blood

FEEL FREE TO ASK FOR TAGS IF I MISS SOMETHING

Content will generally stick to the canon-typical, with the exception of language (we say Fuck in this house) and a general increase in population queerness (does Jarl Balgruuf is gay? maybe!). Overall, though, nothing should be more graphic than it is in-game, minus some injury description.

Now then, with all that said...

A small bird's nest of blonde hair stirs from under some furs as flute music drifts into the tent. A girl sits up and rubs her eyes; she can't have seen more than twenty summers, and she frowns at the scratchiness on her chin, the rasp in her yawn.

Outside, the flute stops, and an oak-brown head with pointed ears and loose hair pokes itself in, grinning.

"Hey, you're finally awake!"

Hyacinth clears her throat, and nods gratefully as her companion passes her a vial from her bag by the flaps. She uncorks it, swallows the contents, clears her throat, and sighs.

"Larkspur," she greets. "Where's Lydia?"

Larkspur, a wood elf perhaps ten years her senior, nods towards the tent flaps. "Off hunting breakfast."

"Rabbit again, then," she sighs. "Very well." Hyacinth pushes the furs off of herself, refreshed by the cold that greets her despite the fact that the only layer she hasn't got on is her iron armor.

Larkspur nods and takes that as his sign to leave while she prepares for the day. Hyacinth scratches her chin again. Starting with a shave.

Personality: Hellendil is a sweet, outgoing boy who places a high value on friendships and those he cares about. He has a strong desire to help those in need which sometimes leads him to neglect his own needs. He is soft hearted and often finds himself upset when his actions cause emotional or physical harm to someone or something he cares about. He is intelligent and enjoys reading and studying, especially with a companion. He generally has trouble with decision making because he tends to look at all possible perspectives to weigh the options. He dislikes conflict and would prefer to find a diplomatic solution, but is aware that is not always an option.

Wore the dark arts outfit his first day of classes and promptly traded it for leather armor/adventure gear.

Received the scar on his right brow while fighting the troll in Hogsmeade with Natty.

He adores Thestrals and will stop to watch them anytime he sees them. He also prefers riding one to using a broom.

Family: Hellendil is the youngest of four children and one of two to inherit magical ability from his mother.

His mother is a metal charmer and jeweler from Wales, who met his father when traveling in search of suppliers of metals and precious gems for her art. His father is a muggle blacksmith/metal worker who was blissfully unaware of the magical world until their meeting. His love for her was strong enough that it endured the shock of finding out she was a witch. They married and resettled in Wales where they raised their four children.

[ID: The unfuckable pride flag overlaid with the "no bitches" meme. Over it are pictures of the contestants. Lydia is a woman with long brown hair, looking on the verge of tears; Lumpy is a purple cloud, screaming; Reagan is a woman with brown hair in a ponytail and heavy bags under her eyes.

Propaganda:

Lydia Rodarte-Quayle: "divorced failgirl. decided to participate in the meth business (including killing) despite clearly having an anxiety disorder and shriveling up like a raisin whenever she is threatened. i assume her pussy would do the same"

Lumpy Space Princess: "shes just kind of terrible"

Reagan Ridley: "she was rejected by every man in dc and fucked up a date with somebody she was 99.9% compatible with"

Is it weird to hang out with so many people who have died. Lydia Brown?

I don't think so.

After all, it's quite a normal thing for people to do, you know, after having lived their life.

Honestly, not to have done that is weirder.
