OMG! In ep6, after watching the “nude hug” photo Phichit uploaded to INS, Yuuri imaged the news title of his losing is “The result of frantic love(乱れた愛の果て)”.
What are you thinking about Yuuri😂
Lyria when Regulus asks her out.
May silently tugged her hair realizing the mistakes she cruelly made when realizing when she published her affair. Her heart was aching and breaking in pain once seeing everyone's reaction when reading the four-page pamphlet. Describing every detail of her affair with Phoenix Cordelia while paying it off to his wife; Daisy Cordelia. Approximately, almost three thousand dollars just to keep the affair a secret for a long and harsh 2 years. The guilt continuously ate every single inch of her flesh and blood with her heart screaming at her. Telling May to confess to her beloved boyfriend, Octavian Tabullo that she cheated on him with a married man. It may break Octavian’s heart at first but knowing they can still work this relationship but it will be different. But May’s brain says otherwise whereas not to confess about the affair toward anyone until now. After her enemies believe she was embezzling money from the Nutella Company (which was the main source of money for the Romans) but nope instead she slept with a man behind her boyfriend’s back.
Showing proof that she didn’t embezzle the orphanage money but use her spare money to hush the affair. Mentally slapping herself in the face wondering why she would something so stupid and so betrayed. After spending the entire writing a four-page pamphlet titling it The Cordelia Pamphlet. The morning after she finished writing the disturbance and disgust she has dwell within herself for far too long. Now she releases it out to the entire city of New Rome and Camp Jupiter and possibly will center gossip throughout all over Olympus. A juicy gossip like this wouldn’t be quiet or no…her enemies made sure that this pamphlet would be the end of her and her future career as Praetor. Along with putting her relationship on the brink of a breakup.
Emilie Jade/Nala Bank:
May Cordelia had a torrid affair
And she wrote it down right there!
HIGHLIGHT!!!
With her enemies spreading the news of her affair toward others while giving them the pamphlet. Attempting to leave the crowds that were surrounding but then suddenly she met up a familiar face. An eleven-year-old girl, who happened to be the daughter of Apollo the grandfather of her boyfriend, the current female Praetor, Princess of Olympus, the Sea, and the Underworld, Ghost Queen, Princess of the Shadows, Heir to Jupiter, Juno, Neptune, Ceres, Mars, Minerva, Apollo, Diana, Vulcan, Venus, Mercury, Bacchus, Vesta, and Pluto, ex-Centurion of the First Cohort, Praetor of the Twelfth Legion Fulminata, Friends to Major and Minor Gods, The Three Fates, Thanatos, Friend to Chaos, and Top Commander of the Chaos Army, she was very popular both among men and women. It was the only Lyria Eclair Graham de Vanily, the sister of Octavian Tabullo. She was beyond the perimeter of anger and betrayal. Clutching the four papers in her hand tightly with her bluebell eyes turned into the color of the sea during a storm that held pure hatred and frustration.
Everyone in New Rome and Camp Jupiter knew that May was very lucky it was Lyria, instead of the other 3 people in Octavian’s tight circle of friends practically family. Lyria was the most merciful than Echo Olympia Butterfly, who was the daughter of Venus, May’s half-sister, the Centurion of the First Cohort, right-hand woman of Lyria, Second Top Commander of the Chaos, was the most violent one in the tight group family of 5. Reyna Avila Ramírez-Arellano, the protégé of Praetor Lyria, the next Praetor after Echo, part of the First Cohort, the daughter of Bellona, was training to be a more skilled warrior. Flint Donovan Vance, the current male Praetor, son of Victoria, would have issued an order or execution if it weren’t for worrying over Octavian’s mental health.
Lyria:
I know my brother like I know my own mind
You will never anyone as loyal nor as kind
While getting a heap of shouting from the most beloved demigoddess of all time unaware of her boyfriend's broken heart. Gathering every letter he ever kept in his office and would often read them whenever Octavian was stressed or tired. But the words that May wrote to him always encourage him to work harder and continue to push through life. Though now to Octavian all those words written in each letter he was reading meant nothing to him. Rereading every letter over and over again. Feeling his heart-shattering at each moment while feeling betrayed, angry, and heartbroken wrapped up in one emotion.
Octavian/Lyria:
I’m erasing myself from my narrative
(I love my brother more than my own life
I will choose his happiness over mine every time)
Let future descendants wonder how Octavian reacted
When you broke his heart
Octavian burned each letter into the fireplace of his office while watching each paper burn to death. The tears continued streaming down both Lyria and Octavian’s faces. Both of them are heartbroken by Eliza's betrayal and ruined their lives forever. Not only that the rest of the Venus and Apollo descendants were watching their brother in blood or in all but blood suffering from the pain and the embarrassment. The two groups of Roman Gods hugged each other tightly while May’s sister, Rose continued to read the pamphlet of her sister’s affair.
Meanwhile, Lyria is still continuing to tell May how lucky she was to have a boyfriend like Octavian. Though now, both of them will never know if Octavian is willing to forgive her after putting on a show that damages, not her reputation but Octavian’s as well. May felt Lyria gripped from the collar of her purple SPQR shirt as the tears flooded her face. Letting each word whether be Latin or English escape her lips before being pushed away harshly. Intending to reach Lyria but only to receive a punch to the nose and stomach. Surprise that Lyria punched her in public but no matter did anything to stand up for May since she brought this upon herself. Seeing the Praetor stepping away from her while glaring at her down to the pitch of her soul.
Lyria:
Put what we had aside
I’m standing at his side
You could never be satisfied
Gods, I hope you’re satisfied
And all of this only happened a few days ago whereas May is at the Fifth Cohort alone by herself. The Roman descendants moved to the Fourth Cohort, not wanting to live in the same place as of May. But the Venus and Apollo descendants, along with Flint, Reyna, and Echo were at Olympus in Lyria’s temple with their ancestors and the rest of the Gods. Apparently, all of Olympus heard the affair and had Mercury pick up Octavian and everyone else. The only thing Octavian left behind was the golden promise ring that he dropped into the palm of her hand. None of her siblings could look in their half-sibling's eyes ever again. Still…May lies in bed hopefully everything is nothing more than a terrible nightmare.
Skaters and their love for YOI.
This started as me wanting to draw them as old men and kind of spiralled from there…
I walked in Ben’s tent where I found him lying on his bed with a letter near him. I knew it was from the turncoat General Benedict Arnold. Ben knew that I was in the room, but he made no acknowledgement. But I knew that he knew because of a very small minuscule of a nod towards me.
“What did he write, Ben?” I asked him, he knew full well when I used his more common nickname than ‘Benji’ when I’m serious.
He wordlessly passed me the letter and when I finished reading it, I felt the same rush of anger towards the traitor.
As I know you to be a man of sense, I am conscious you are, by this time, fully of opinion that the real interest and happiness of America consists in a reunion with Great Britain. I have taken a commission in the British Army and invite you to join me with as many men as you can bring over with you. If you think it proper to embrace my offer you shall have the same rank you now hold, in the cavalry I am to raise.
“And I am guessing that he wrote to you too, my dear Lily of the Valley?” Ben asked, using my other nickname than Lily. ‘Lily of the Valley’ or delicacy, kindness, good luck, happiness, sadness, pain through death, serenity, unity, and hope. While Lily means beauty, rebirth, purity, commitment, and fresh life.
“Yes, he has, my Celamits,” I answered, using my other usual nickname for him which means mental beauty or intelligence.
I quickly handed him the letter, which I hope to burn later. I don’t want to be associated with Arnold any longer.
Olivia,
I write to you because you have so much potential that the British would love to use other than the Continentals. They haven’t given you any money for the years that you have kept their army alive. You have given them everything of you, but they gave you nothing in return. If you defect to the right side, I will do everything in my power to give you your own command, something the old fox had never given you. “Too inexperienced” my crippled leg, you have excellent battle skills and strategy, what more does he want?
I know that you will be a turncoat because like Benjamin Tallmadge, you had the chance to kill me, but you didn’t. You have the best aim I had ever seen on a person, so to you to miss me was a sign.
Heed my warning that the Continentals will throw you out as soon as they are done with you, and when they do, you know what to do.
Your Real Brother and Family,
Benedict Arnold
“He’s insane to even think that you’ll ever defect, you are one of the most loyal Patriots I have ever known!”
“I know!” I had to stop Ben from ranting because we have a bigger problem at hand, “How do we tell Papa?”
“We don’t, until for now. He’s been through a lot right now, and he doesn’t need more. Besides, it's not like we’ll ever defect.” He was right about everything: Papa is stressed out because one of his fine Generals defected that could catalyze the alliance with France, he lost one of his close friends, confidant, and brother, and Ben and I will never defect because we’re loyal to the cause.
“Let’s just hope that Arnold’s defection won’t cost us so much.” I wondered out loud. I heard Ben humming as if agreeing with me. Let’s just hope.
I love so much these two
‘—until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old—’
as i see it, arthur and a lot of people may have naturally looked to alfred—his eldest son, the heir, the industrial colossus—for deliverance. but it’s matthew who is by his side from the start. matt’s the second prince; the one at times overlooked and taken for granted by arthur. but it’s matt who steps into the breach in 1940; sending men and women and food and weaponry, so disaster doesn’t turn into annihilation. matt, reliable and grimly prepared to do the crucial job of holding the line, whilst america’s interventionists contended with its isolationists. in my headcanon, he’s quieter and cuts a seemingly less bold figure than his brother—but when the time calls for it, he’s icily steadfast and ruthless. the new world stepping forth to the rescue and liberation of the old? yes, but in more ways than one.
who wants to see a great political cartoon from ww1 I found while looking for references of Vimy Ridge?
Rewatched yoi recently and it remains one of my favourites. Here are some of my favourite fanarts I did back in 2017 :))
