"A royal lifestyle sounds like a lot of work." Quinn sympathized, realizing that it was probably more work than what was just shown on TV. She shifted her gaze from her nails back to Charlotte, a strand of hair falling back into her face. "But to be honest with you, I'd take work any day if it meant I'd always have a roof over my head, plenty of food in my stomach and people waiting on me 24/7." She tucked her hair back behind her ear before going back to what Charlotte had said. A disappointment? "And I'm sure that you're not a disappointment."
(Alrighty! Talk to you tomorrow!)

[Hey, I'm Interested in joining this but didn't know if there was a joining page or not. Finished The Crown today so I'm really excited about this RP. If I wanted to claim do I make the looks or is it already decided? Thanks for answering my queries! )

"Hmm I guess having people do stuff, that you'd rather not do, is pretty nice." she leaned back in the chair and watched Quinn a bit more, she wasn't quite used to just talking to someone like this, most people she talked to were the maids and butlers, her brothers, or her parents. It was nice. Charlotte purposefully ignored the last sentence, she wasn't in the mood to talk about it.

(Hello Grey! There is no joining page, so you can just post your forums right here To claim, the looks are up to you! As long as they look somewhat like a family, it doesn't really matter otherwise!) Quinn glanced around at the silence, taking a seat on the bench she was on besides Charlotte. She was toying with a lace on her dress before looking over at the Princess. "So tell me, how does one escape a lesson?" She inquired, a smile playing across her face. "It might come in handy back home."

Charlotte beamed "Well, first you have to distract your teacher. If they are watching you there's no chance of escape. This time I distracted her by spilling a bit of tea on her hand. It was sticky enough to where she went to wash it off. The room was on the second floor so I escaped through the window." she laughed sheepishly "I actually slipped when I crawled down to the first floor and landed in the garden, but i'm fine now."

Quinn couldn't help but laugh. "You climbed down a window in a dress?" She grinned, enjoying this princess's spunk. "That must've took skill!" She shook her head slightly. "I can climb all kinds of trees back home, but in shorts, not in these things! I would fall on the first branch."

"Well if I stay around the palace a bit longer, why don't you teach me?" Quinn smiled, she knew that she could easily be friends with this princess. If all the royals were like this; normal and not at all snobby, she felt like she could be okay here.

"I'd love to. You'd be my first pupil." she grinned and jumped to her feet. The morning haze was starting to burn off and the sun was getting bright "I can give you a tour of the palace if ya want. It doesn't start until midday and everyone has free roam of the palace until then." (BACK)

finally done! I took out all his interests and favorite things because I want the selected girls to find out on their own ) ☁-- ᴀ s ᴛ ʀ ɪ ᴅ | Prince Alexander | Alexander is tall like his father, with thick, dark brown hair that shines almost red gold in the sunlight. While he has his mother's hair, he inherited his father's dark eyes. He is naturally pale but slightly tanned from outdoor sports. While Alexander is very much the prince he's expected to be, he can be considered difficult by some. Being raised as the heir lead to him being somewhat isolated from his younger siblings as a child. As the prince, he considers only his parents above him in the world. He is bossy and somewhat controlling, and might be called rude on occasion- though he doesn't consider there to be anything wrong with that. He is the prince afterall, and he someday he'll be the king, which justifies all actions in his mind. Though he seems serious and condescending most of the time, Alexander has his moments. He also has a quietly mischevious side that presents itself in unnassuming ways. He's not very open about his personal interests, as he's never really had anyone to be open with. Alexander's not entirely sure what he's looking for in the selection, but he trusts in the system to pick a good ruler. | Eadlyn

(He looks awesome! And I love the board! I'll add him right away ^^ Sounds good, Grey!)
"That sounds lovely." Quinn stood as the sun bathed the garden in a warm light. She looked around, enjoying how lush everything was. "I better get to know the place. I had to ask a guard on the way to the gardens, I got lost." She admitted with a half-smile, her hand reaching up to push in some rebellious bobby pins.

Charlotte nodded and started back to the palace entrance "As soon as you get a hang of it it's not too hard. You basically have to learn the most important areas like the kitchen, dining room, bathroom, your own room of course, and a couple others depending on what your need is. Oh, and the physicians room as well. Though they have a separate area where they live." she listed off rooms, counting on her fingers as she went. Taking a left as she entered she led Quinn down the long hallway and opened a set of large doors "This lead to the kitchen, the next doors down is the dining room." she sniffed the air and her mouth watered "Smells good!"

(Woop I disappeared. astrid: I was thinking it was the day before, but we can make it either way. Here I'll post a starter so little ol' Alex can talk to his mom x3 blossom and Inky: Yay! Welcome!) Quinn followed, still taken aback by the sheer beauty of the palace and it's magnificent marble walls and floors, with the windows seemed to stretch up forever. She followed Charlotte into the kitchen, smiling at the warm smell of food. "You're right, it smells amazing." She sighed, remembering how her little house filled with the smell of whatever her mother was cooking. "Reminds me of home a bit." She said almost wistfully. Katherine was in her study, working on some official matters as her maids brushed and began to put up her hair for the rest of the day. She let out a sigh as she remembered that the Selection was to start soon, how their somewhat peaceful lives at the palace would be turned upside down for a while. However, it should be interesting. I remember how scared I was around the Queen as a Selection girl... I hope I can come off as a bit more friendly. She signed off on some papers and leaned back in her chair, clenching and unclenching her hand for a moment.

K I don't mind when it is I just wasn't sure)
Alexander paced in his room, thinking about the weeks to come. He'd already finished looking through the stack of papers that was today's work, and had sent off the signatures, revisions, reviews, and responses with butlers as needed. Now the only thing that remained on his desk was a folder containing the photos and profiles of the Selected. His father had advised him to begin narrowing down the girls before the Selection even officially began, in order to not waste any time, but Alexander had only glanced over a few of the papers before leaving the folder in frustration. He wasn't sure what he was supposed to be looking for, or how he could eliminate options based on these profiles alone. What am I missing? Surely his father didn't mean for him to eliminate based on caste or appearance. Alexander let out a frustrated sigh. His mother would be in her study at this time of day, and he decided to ask her for advice. She had participated in the Selection, and surely her insight would provide some sort of help. He walked through the halls of the palace quickly, knowing the way better than his own reflection. "Mother?" He called when he arrived at the door, lightly tapping on the dark wood.

Katherine looked up from her paperwork, smiling to see her son at the door. With a small wave of her hand her maids bowed and left quietly, curtsying to Alexander as they passed. "Hello dear." The queen noticed the troubled look on her sons face, and quickly filed the remaining papers then stood and pulled an extra chair from the corner of the room. "Come sit with me." She offered, her gaze flitting over his features. She had her husband had very different opinions on how this Selection should run. While Charles seemed to want it to be over with quickly, Katherine thought that her son should take his time and know every individual girl before making a choice. "What's on your mind, my love?"

Charlotte considered asking her about her home, but she was here until The Selection was over. No need to make her homesick. Instead she just nodded "The chefs are really talented. Only the best for the royal family." stretching her arms over head she continued "Let's keep on going." her next stop was the nearest bathroom, there were plenty, but this was the closest to the dining room. Finally she showed her to the stables. Grinning she walked up to a pretty black mare, her own horse. The animal huffed and rubbed her nose against Charlotte. The princess patted the horses nose.

greyskies| Florence Dubois | 17 | Three | Florence is a petite girl with long, wavy, blonde hair. She has icy blue eyes and a slight tan. Being a three, Florence is well educated, with very smart parents who are both lawyers. Despite the fact that her parents work is in law Florence takes more interest in teaching and health. Florence does volunteer work at primary schools in the science departments. She is smart but can be very, very stubborn. Florence likes to get her way and can be argumentative when people disagree with her. She believes that she always has the right opinion so when people have altering opinions it can easily frustrate her. She is a kind person even though she is argumentative and stubborn. She volenteers at the poorer primary schools to try to give lower castes educations. Her family consists of three people including her and she is an only child, probably what makes her like to get her way more. Her parents are often busy with work and she is left on her own fairly often. | Eadlyn
