idk i think i may go back to full color ????

i wanted the springtime pastel photoshoot everyone else did, so here we are ! the family doesn’t celebrate easter or w/e, but there’s likely some spring equinox situation i haven’t done any worldbuilding around yet :^) anyway, i made myself sad w/ this because ... it’s not technically canon adjkfadfkj it’s pretty tho !!!

wow we love official bridal looks

random uspanian: baltasar was awful me: yeah awfully hot 🤪

turns out orraca wasn’t always blind and also nando inherited being awful and hot from his daddy. nice. can’t end badly for anyone. 

grandma 

zurine vc: yes, a shot with the guillotine and my toddler is what i said

jk zurine is the awful and hot one

hey look it’s alf’s new wife

zurine, sweetly: don’t make me slap you again—

[no caption just me being sad]

i like that old guy so much i want him to be an actual character

queen bea ?????

fantastic question. absolutely A+ ! i’m going to give a few answers because there are so many ways this could go.

❧      my first thought is that alfonso would want to time travel to the point in time after he has passed, to make sure that beatriz is okay. he has a lot of worries ! he knows that will be a hard time for many reasons, and he’s right about all of that, so ... he’d just want to see for himself, maybe in hopes that he could help improve things before all of it happens. classic time travel hope which inevitably produces a self-fulfilling prophecy, huh? 

❧      beatriz, as a child, would want to see herself as queen. she would go straight to her coronation and be—as she expects it—absolutely delighted by the sight of it. adult beatriz would go back to the day her father dies and ... do things differently. i think she would also fast-forward to the present, to the twilight years of her own life, just to see if she’s a different person. there’s not really a value judgement attached to it—nothing she’s expecting to see, for better or worse—but i believe she has wistful wonderings in her middle age that would prompt her to want to see what the end of her life is like. did she get what she deserved, whatever that means? she would also want to go back to the beginning and see her favorite heroes and places—canarís, the hunter, the shining city by the sea, alam palace when it was first built ...
