@theywillnotfade: ‘i love you.’ (theywillnotfade // from sophie bc loves her historical mom) x
❝ i love you too, ❞ catherine murmurs, tears clouding her voice. it had been too close today, far too close. she’s always known that being who she is comes with risks, but she’s caught off guard by how much it HURTS that her daughter has been caught up in it. ❝ i’m so sorry, sophie. i should have told you sooner. ❞

@theywillnotfade said: ❝ the apple never falls far from the tree. ❞ (theywillnotfade // from sophie) x
❝ you do realize YOU’RE THE APPLE in this situation, yes ? and i rather like how close you’ve fallen. ❞ she gives her daughter a playful nudge, a fond smile on her face. ❝ i always wondered what my children would be like. i fought so hard to have you...i couldn’t be prouder of HOW YOU’VE TURNED OUT. ❞
@theywillnotfade sent a raven: “I got you a present.” (from your fav godmother theresia)
He is slightly surprised. Gifts where not something he was used to be given. “There was no need for that.” He said at last, simply so unsure of how else to handle such a situation. Still he is curious, curiosity couldn’t be help. So there is still a smile as he leans forward, elbows resting on the table. Boyish wondering bright light to grey hues“But might I still ask what it you brought?”
@theywillnotfade said: *puts head on the mom’s lap* (theywillnotfade // for elizabeth from sophie, just bc)
elizabeth doesn’t question it. if anything, she know how much it means that sophie can feel this comfortable with her. she smiles softly, taking in every detail of her daughter’s face. SHE HAS ROBERT’S NOSE, she notes, and his chin. she has her eyes and that smattering of freckles elizabeth valiantly tries to cover up in the summer. on sophie though, she loves them. she runs her fingers gently through sophie’s hair, still smiling softly at her. ❝ hello, röschen. is everything alright ? ❞
@theywillnotfade said: ❝ royalty is best endured in small doses. ❞ (theywillnotfade // from sophie)
catherine couldnt help but LAUGH. oh, her spirited daughter. the absolute love of her life. ❝ you’re realizing you’re talking to a former queen of england ? ❞ she continued to braid sophie’s hair, shaking her head good naturedly. ❝ have i REALLY told you that many horror stories ? ❞

@theywillnotfade said: “Bringing a knife to a gunfight is a done deal, but bringing a book to a painting fight is a much more intriguing matchup.” (theywillnotfade // sophie to elizabeth)
❝ you know, sometimes you’re so endearingly YOUR FATHER’S DAUGHTER, it takes my breath away. ❞
@theywillnotfade said: “Separating those two is like telling an alcoholic priest to stop hogging the blood of Christ.” (theywillnotfade // from sophie to elizabeth)
elizabeth let out a sound that was SUPPOSED to be a laugh, but rang painfully hollow, even to herself. she knew, really, that despite this new wrinkle in their lives, that she has no claim over robert. so this other ex....whatever she was to him turning up and getting all flirty with him really shouldn’t bother her. she was the mother of his daughter, that was all. ❝ they are rather...AFFECTIONATE, aren’t they ? ❞ she hated how hurt she sounded. this was hardly the lesson she wanted to impart to her daughter.
turning away, she squared her jaw and took a steadying breath. ❝ i’m going to go get a coffee across the street. meet me there when they’re finished, won’t you ? ❞
“ i’m sick of listening to everyone ” (theywillnotfade // from olga, maybe survival au ?)
it’s funny, he muses, how they could have had this same conversation years and years ago, a life so forcefully divided from this one. with the return of the empire, the old aristocrats and nobles have trickled back in, reclaiming what diminished wealth might remain. though he hasn’t a ruble to his name, vladimir went back just the same as the rest; he knew no other home than the cold, eroding grandeur of a bygone era.
lily had made the impossible less than difficult, and it was in no small part due to her tireless efforts that he once again has an audience with the tsarina. but for all the baubles, duties, and prestige that her station brings, she seems every bit like any other young woman, complete with the usual complaints. ( though really, he thinks, she more than has the right to harbour her grievances. )
“ the trick isn’t to stop listening to them; it’s knowing when to listen and when to turn a deaf ear. if you will, your imperial majesty, ” vladimir says, his tone cavalier, edged with a slight deference, “ learn to tell which voices speak, REALLY SPEAK, not just say something. ” alright, perhaps that’s a bit self-gratifying, coming from him, but he hopes that she’ll accept the advice as the genuine article. “ moreover, trust in yourself. haven’t you accomplished so much in these past few months ? think of all the good you’ve done.
“ then what’s stopping you from trusting yourself, the very first person you should be able to trust ? ”
