Trick or Treat!

You get...

This splash page from Valerian and Laureline that I was considering as a blog header!!

[mini-kunoichi]

One Chance, pt.2

I wanted to add a little more to this before posting it, but I'll be busy for the next few weeks and I didn't want to leave y'all hanging. One of these days, I'll come up with my own header/line breaks. Just not anytime soon.

Fandom: House of the Dragon

Pairing: Daemon x OC

Summary: What happens when you put Daemon and Addie together? Peak Youngest Sibling Energy, apparently.

Warning: swearing, hints at parental abuse, Daemon being a menace.

Many thanks to @em-writes-stuff-sometimes for beta reading and translating the High Valerian for my lazy ass.

Part 1 Here; Read on AO3

Daemon waited a few days before bringing up the idea of Adelayde staying at the Red Keep for the duration of their courtship. He would stroll the gardens with her every afternoon, and it quickly became the highlight of his days. Despite her family being only slightly above Small Folk, the lady proved herself to be intelligent and quick-witted. Once Daemon was sure he wanted to continue the courtship, it was time to put his plan into motion.

It didn’t take much to convince Adelayde’s parents to have her stay. Her father was too ambitious to decline and her mother seemed intent on pushing her daughter on him. His brother was harder, but not by much. Once he was able to speak to Viserys privately (and therefore openly) about his reasoning, his brother did not put up too much of a fuss. In fact, he seemed to think it was a lovely idea. Though he did make Daemon promise to “do things properly.” The Queen and her cunt of a father objected on behalf of “propriety” or whatever-the-fuck, but Daemon didn’t really care about them. 

The hardest person to convince was, surprisingly, Adelayde herself. When Daemon brought it up to her, she suddenly became agitated. 

He was leaning against a wall in the garden, arms crossed, watching her pace and wring her hands.

“I don’t see the issue,” he said eventually. “You will have a much more comfortable life here. You can have a life away from your parents.”

Daemon really didn’t like Lord and Lady Mullendore. They were both overbearing, though in very different ways. He had already suffered through a handful of dinners with them. Adelayde was such a different person when her parents were around; meek, quiet, and submissive. Everything he didn’t want in a wife. He would have thought she would want to be away from her parents.

“Daemon, I don’t know anyone here,” Adelayde replied.

“You know me. And Rhaenyra.”

“That’s not . . . that’s two people out of hundreds.” The hand-wringing got worse, and Daemon pushed himself off of the wall to take her hands in his own. She started to shift from foot to foot instead. It was annoying, but not as self-destructive.

“You will flourish here. I know you will. Especially without your family holding you back.” He had learned early on that honesty fostered honesty with Adelayde. Though how she always knew whether or not he was being honest was currently lost on him. 

“My family doesn’t hold me back,” she replied with a frown.

“Well, your parents sure as fuck do.” Her frown deepened, but she didn’t reply. She knew he was right.

“Does not knowing anyone in King’s Landing really bother you that much?” he asked.

Adelayde let out a resigned sigh before saying, “I suppose I should be used to solitude by now.”

“So there should be no problem, then.”

“The place was familiar, though. I had my brothers. And a cousin.”

“I will keep you company,” Daemon said confidently. 

It wouldn’t be too much trouble, he figured. They’d had interesting conversations thus far, and she’d even asked him to teach her High Valyrian. Lessons would surely take up much of her time. But instead of happily agreeing (as most maidens would), Adelayde’s nose scrunched in distaste.

“Surely we would get sick of each other.”

Nonsense. No one ever got sick of Daemon Targaryen. Though, he supposed he might become sick of seeing her. Right now, Addie was like a shiny new toy, and he did have a habit of tiring of his paramours rather quickly.

“Well, I’m sure you can find a way to occupy yourself,” he replied eventually.

“Yes,” she agreed. “I suppose I can spend time in the library when you become boring.”

The nerve of this woman. 

– – – – – – – – 

In the end, it was agreed that Addie would stay at the Red Keep for the duration of their three-month courtship. After that period, her return to the Uplands would be decided based on if and when a wedding would take place.

She was moved to more permanent (and lavish) quarters and assigned handmaids who tended to everything from dressing her to serving her meals and preparing baths. She found it discomfiting. 

Being from a minor house, Addie was not used to having such attention. Sure, her father employed cooks, housekeepers, and the like, but nothing as elaborate as handmaids. They were surprisingly understanding, however, and mostly kept to themselves when not performing their duties. One of them even took it upon herself to acquire thread, cloth, and needles so that Addie could work on embroidery.

The little bluejay visited a few more times. No one ever acknowledged the bird and it never sang, so she ignored it each time.

Now that she had been moved to a new room, her father insisted that they break their fast as a family every morning. He always insisted she dismiss her handmaids so that they could “talk as a family.” It was the worst part of the day.

“You will not fuck this up for me,” her father growled, the same as every other morning.

“I won’t, Father,” Addie replied the same as every other morning.

“You’d better not,” he continued. “My place at court depends on this match. If he finds out you’re fucked in the head, he’ll reject you and it’ll all go to shit.”

I am not ‘fucked in the head’, she thought to herself bitterly, though she didn’t dare say anything out loud. Such defiance had major consequences. 

She was saved from having to respond when her mother spoke up.

“Addie is a clever girl. She has navigated court politics quite well thus far. And the Prince seems taken with her.”

“I didn’t ask for your fucking opinion,” he spat. “Speak out of turn again and there will be consequences.”

The rest of the meal was eaten in tense silence.

— — — — — —

Addie was uncharacteristically reserved in the days leading up to her parent’s departure. Daemon still had certain duties with the city watch and Rhaenyra had taken it upon herself to entertain her, which he appreciated. 

It was kind of the Princess, but the two did not really have much in common. Rhaenyra enjoyed the many forms of hunting; and while Addie was perfectly happy to visit the hawks, hounds, and horses used in such activities, she disliked the killing of animals. Rhaenyra’s assurance that the meat would be used in the kitchens made her feel only slightly better.

— — — — — — — 

Daemon took it upon himself to tutor his potential bride in High Valyrian. Partly because the palace tutor had decided she was “too simple for such a task,” (where he’d gotten such an idea was beyond Daemon’s comprehension) but mostly because he wanted to spend more time with her.

Adelayde was a surprisingly quick study. And Daemon was a surprisingly good teacher. The only problem was their motivations; Addie intended to learn and Daemon intended to flirt.

This led to the woman’s never-ending frustrations and the prince’s never-ending amusement. 

“Would you get your hand off my leg?” she hissed through her teeth.

“Whatever for?” Daemon asked innocently.

“I am trying to learn.” She smacked his hand off of her thigh, but he quickly replaced it.

“Say it in High Valyrian and I’ll consider it,” he replied with a smirk.

 “Aōhi ondos hen ñuha pore ondurās.”

“Close. Kirimvose, aōhi ondos hen ñuha pore nādīnās. Manners go a long way, you know.”

Addie’s eyebrows pinched slightly as she processed the sentence. It’s rather cute. Not that he’d admit that out loud.

“What does ‘kirimvose’ mean again?” she asked eventually.

He answered with a smirk and she smacked him on the chest with the back of her hand. Addie had taken to delivering light swats or kicks when provoked—as long as they were alone, that is. Daemon understood the importance of appearance within the court and society, but he appreciated that she had become comfortable enough to treat him as an equal. He once asked her if she treated her own brothers with “such brutality” and she replied that she did not. She hit them harder.

“I’m not saying please when I’ve already asked you several times,” she stated primly.

Daemon compromised by scooting his chair closer to hers and draped his arm over the back of her chair. Addie shot him an annoyed look that made her look a little bit like her mother. She opened her mouth to make a smart retort when they were interrupted.

“I believe the lady has asked to not be touched,” came the cold voice of Criston Cole, their assigned chaperone for the afternoon. He had been the one to chaperone them a lot lately, probably instructed to spy on them by either the Queen or the Hand.

Addie turned to look at him, gave him one of the most judgemental and condescending once-overs that Daemon had ever seen, and replied, “I am perfectly capable of handling myself, Ser Criston.”

The knight hung his head and mumbled an apology, thoroughly humbled. Once Addie’s attention was back on the books, Daemon shot the knight a haughty smirk.

I got tagged by @cleverpenguin2023 for this and thought: why not? I'm not trying to spread it, unless someone who sees it wants to.

1.) Why did you choose your URL?

Two reasons: 1. it was free and my old url (Moreta) got taken in those few years I was away. 2. When I was making the blog I was very into DnD and my heart is strongly aligned with doomguard faction, to add to it that my style of DMing can be only described as chaotic lawful. It had to be entropy.

2.) Any side blogs?

Nope.

3.) How long have you been on tumblr?

I got back on Tumblr like two weeks before Musk declared he's buying Twitter. (Was here back when the great porn ban wiped my monsterfucking art blog tho.)

4.) Do you have a queue tag?

Nope. Never queued shit.

5.) Why did you start your blog in the first place?

Voices told me that the site is good place to chatter away at randos so of course I can't do it anonymously.

6,7.) Why did you choose your icon/header?

Both are just something from my old drawings that I liked.

8.) What is your post with the most notes?

Fanfic of Sandman in posts (which later got tossed into AO3 under the title "Lavender, valerian and poppies" if I remember correctly) it was in fact only my post that got three digits in notes.

9.)How many mutuals do you have?

19

10,11) How many followers do you have?How many do you follow

92 for both. Yes, it's intentional.

12.) Have you ever made a shitpost?

No idea. Have I?

13.) How often do you use tumblr each day?

Like once every hour to check private messages.

14.) Did you have a fight/argument with a blog once? Who won?

Don't think so.

15.) How do you feel about “you need to reblog this” posts?

Sometimes angry, sometimes tossing them around. Depends.

16,17.) Do you like tag/ask games?

Not very much but... Here I am.

18.) Which of your tumblr mutuals do you think is famous?

pleaseelaborate, silver compas maps (not tagging bc I don't like tagging people when I don't want to actually call them)

19.) Do you have a crush on a tumblr mutual?

I don't know if I even understand the question.

“goddamn, bloody bastard-” Solana growled, parrying an incoming knife with her own daggers- slashing out to push the attacker backwards. “C’mon, mate- can’t we do this another time? plenty o’ other bounties fer ye to chase, it’s no’ my fault i got the bugger first- n’ we’re righ’ out side the city, ye can just go get another one!.“ she jeered, rather annoyed as she twirled a small knife in her hand, sending it flying towards the man. it didn’t happen often, but every now and then a couple hunters get the same bounty- and sometimes, the one who isn’t getting paid gets very upset at losing out. Spinning out of the way as he rushed her again, she sighed. “guess fuckin’ not, aye? right then.” They clashed, trading blows back and forth, until he managed to get a good hit to her stomach- slashing through the fabric of her shirt. she let out a quiet gasp of surprise- but even more surprising was that the pain was suddenly dulled. at first she thought something was wrong, until her eye’s caught sight of another Au Ra lass- a healer, by the looks of it, a short distance away. Skeptical, but appreciative, Solana nodded in her direction before parrying the next swing.

the contrast in skintone from abeni's portrait art to the header art on itchio is... something

Ah, this has been hidden in the comments section on itch by now, but I know !! It's my fault: I was working with an unfamiliar artist at the time and I wasn't confident enough to correct him when the art came back wrong (notably even the colour of her dress was wrong, but it was the first commission that I've ever gotten from an artist I didn't already know personally and I was worried that such an overall colour issue would be too big to correct: not his fault, of course, just on me for being too nervous to assert myself). Valerian and Gnarl's portraits were both done by friends so I could tweak things more easily (and notably, the banner art was also done by a friend).

But, it's going to be fixed next update! Abeni's had her art redone by artist Nia Palmer (@niascribbles) and I think it not only captures her much better from a characterization standpoint, but also is more true to the banner art!

And yk, the update is getting close to ready so I think I'm cool with doing the sprite reveal. Have I done this already? I'm gunna do it again and everyone still ooh and ahh if I already have!

Total babes !! The hair gets me every time I see it, I'm obsessed with her. So I guess the tl;dr of this is sorry that the discrepancy took so long to correct (the search for an artist took a while and the most convenient thing would have been to change the banner which I didn't want to do because it was more accurate), and I hope everyone loves her new art !! Also, once again thank you to @niascribbles for the amazing art !!

[nitewrighter]

So what's the new avatar and header from. Looks dope btw.

The avatar is Laureline from the Valerian and Laureline comics! I recently finished all of them. It's thought that this particular outfit of hers may have been a major inspiration for Princess Leia's metal bikini dress in Return of the Jedi! The header is a painting by Jean 'Moebius' Giraud. I wanted to use a splash page from his comic "The Incal" but found this painting instead, and it matched the avatar's color scheme fairly well so here we are!!
