Wrath of a Goddess
Where Baldwin is taken by the Congregation and Delphie is furious
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Steam came from her hands, quickly laying the floor of Philippe’s office in a layer of fog. Baldwin hadn’t just gone off the grid to deal with his brother’s affairs, he had been taken, by the congregation, she was sure of it. On what grounds though, she didn’t know. But she was going to get him back, no matter what.
These feelings may be her finally coming to terms with her feelings for him. Or it may be her feeling like she owes him for saving her from Eva. The thought of the vampire’s name sent chills down Delphie’s back, and she shook it off. The scars still fresh on her body from what she had endured.
Delphie barely registered the voices of the others in the room. Sarah and Emily were no doubt talking about what could cause the smoke from her body. Her own voice a mere mumble of words they didn’t even know, Greek. She spoke to the wind, or to the ghost in the Chateau perhaps.
Beside her, Ysabeau shifted, maybe she was nervous? Surely, she understood what was being said. The older woman had after all lived many lifetimes. She knew things that had been forgotten with time.
“I’ll get him back”, Delphie whispered. And with the snap of her fingers, she was gone, dissolved into thin air.
Moments later she was there, inside the Congregation chambers. The eight creatures all rising to their feet.
Peter Knox was the first to speak, demanding to know who she was. But she gave no answer, just looked around at the members, trying to see through them.
This kind of magic had never been present in her life. She’d never felt this powerful. Until now. Something had changed. Something big was coming, she just knew it.
“Speak. Who are you? And why are you here?” Knox tried again.
Delphie’s head snapped to the side, looking at him, only, she wasn’t looking at him, her eyes were clear, staring right through him. And as she spoke, her voice became hollow. “None of your concern Peter, son of Arthur and Augusta Knox.”
The color on his face must have faded, as he started stuttering.
Next her head snapped to look at Gerbert, who’d been trying to sneak up on her. “I wouldn’t try anything funny if I were you Gerbertus.”
A snarl left his lips as he spoke, “How do you know that name?!”
Without any warning, Delphie’s body lifted from the ground, flying upwards until she was hovering just out of reach. Powers surging out of her hands. And when she spoke it almost didn’t sound like her anymore, casting what could very well be understood as a curse.
In one corner, Satu and Sidonie spoke in tongue, either praying or casting, no one could tell. The three daemons were huddled in another corner, while Domenico stood by himself, away from view. Only Peter Knox and Gerbert remained standing, challenging Delphie. And only the name Hecate was understood by all.
A wicked smirk appeared on Delphie’s lips for a moment, and then it melted away. Her voice once hollower as she laid out her demand.
“Give me de Clermont, or you will all feel the wrath of my powers.”
Gerbert snarled again at the name, and in an instant, she had lifted him off the ground with a thick string of electricity around his neck. “Do not play games with me Gebert D’Aurillac. You will not like the outcome.”
From one side, Peter was speaking to a small sphere of magic, but Delphie chuckled coldly, lifting him off the ground too with the same kind of cord she had on Gerbert. “Nice try, witch.” She said, the grip on the two men tightening.
“Give me de Clermont, and I’ll let you all live. If not, I go after you, and anyone you care about.”
At that Agatha finally spoke up. “Get him right this instance. Our lives and the lives of our families are not worth risking for him.”
“Smart girl, Agatha Wilson.” Delphie said.
The witches and daemons all fled the room to fetch Baldwin.
“Who are you, witch?” asked Gerbert, struggling to get free.
“I am the daughter of Hecate.” She responded coldly, thankful that the other two witches weren’t there to overhear it.
At the mention of her mother’s name slipping her lips, Hecate’s response flowed through the room like the wind.
Strong daughter of mine. Show them what you’re made of.
Peter’s face went pale again, eyes filled with fear.
Peter, son of Arthur and Augusta Knox. Bow to my daughter, give your service over to her and you may be spared.
He began shaking in her hold.
Your end will come if you do not heed my warning.
Just as quickly as she had appeared she disappeared, just in time for the others to reappear with Baldwin between them.
He looked exhausted and famished. Delphie knew she didn’t have much time to get him out of there and fed, so she dropped the two men and swooped down to catch Baldwin in her arms. He was so out of it he didn’t register being whisked away to safety, leaving the whole congregation quivering.
Back at the Chateau, Delphie called for Marthe and Marcus. “Bring blood, he needs to be fed, quickly!”
The two vampires appeared, blood bags in hand, shock written all over their faces.
“Ms. Morton? How? You were gone for what, 10 minutes?!” Marthe spoke, and Delphie grabbed one of the blood bags the older woman was holding.
“I don’t have time to explain. Tell Madame de Clermont and the others to be ready for a counterattack from the Congregation. I just challenged them. When they find out where we are they might want to retaliate.” She highly doubted it, with how scared they had looked, but one could never be too sure. One did not simply challenge the congregation and get away with it. They usually fought back, and most times won. Whether with actions or words.
“You need to feed, Baldwin. Get your strength back—and then you need to hunt.”
He grunted, and all Delphie could do was pull him into her arms and cradle him like a newborn, feeding him the blood. Baldwin took to it, drinking it down hungrily. “That’s it, drink it all. I’ve got more for you here.” She dipped her head to kiss his forehead, not where she could see his memories, that was for later.
“I’ll leave the blood bags here. Call for me if there’s anything.” Said Marcus, placing the bags down by her.
“Thank you, Marcus.” She nodded, giving him a tired smile. The powers had really taken their toll on Delphie, and she struggled to stay awake, to feed Baldwin.
Once they were completely alone and he had drunk the contents of all four bags, Delphie locked the door, and opened a wound on her wrist, “Drink, my love”, she whispered for only him to hear.
Baldwin’s eyes widened and he tried to push her hand away, but she didn’t budge. “Take some of my blood, you need the strength.” Her voice still soft, her lips close to his ear.
“N—no.” He sounded desperate, like he was fighting himself, his inner instincts. But she knew her blood was singing to him, heard the way he growled.
Before she could even register it, Baldwin took hold of her arm, pressing her wrist to his lips and sucking in the amber liquid.
“That’s it my love, have your share. Let me heal you and make you stronger.”
After she deemed it enough, she went to pull her arm away from his lips, but he let out a growl in protest. “You can have more later. But now you should really go hunt with your nephew.” She offered, closing her wound with magic, then unlocking the door.
She had to muster up enough strengths to go to the altar and give thanks to her mother. And for that she needed to be alone.
“This isn’t over Delphie.” Said Baldwin, kissing her, before disappearing in a flash.

OC AESTHETIC: Riversong Hargrove
❝ The wolf who wins is the wolf you feed. The evil wolf feeds on anger, guilt, sorrow, lies, and regret. The good wolf needs a diet of love and honesty, spiced up with big spoonfuls of compassion and faith. So if you want the good wolf to win, you're going to have to starve the other one. ❞

Name: Valeria Bailey (born as Margaret)
Nickname: Val, Peggy, the Bloody Mary of Barbados.
Age: 19, almost 20 when turned. Turned in 1807.
Born: St. Louis, Barbados
Living: New Orleans, USA
Species: Vampire
Occupation: enslaved woman (previously), bartender.
Family: John (father, deceased)
Sally (mother, deceased)
Louisa de Clermont (maker)
Patience MacNeil
Ransome Fayrweather
Geraldine
Loyalty: Patience MacNeil, Ransome Fayrweather, Geraldine and their following.
One fact: Ransome calls her Margaret to make her listen, and she hates that.
History: Valeria Bailey was born into slavery in Barbados, named only Margaret by the plantation owner, Louisa de Clermont. Aged only 13, she was brought into the main house. She was soon after assaulted the first time by another plantation owner who was visiting. The assaults went on regularly, with the men paying Louisa for time with the young girl. Though it’s unsure if she had any living children from these assaults, she did suffer some miscarriages, brought on by herself and other women on the plantation to save the poor children from captivity, and the mother from an early death.
At almost 20, Valeria was turned into a vampire against her will after almost dying from an infection. It wasn’t that Louisa cared for the girl, but she got more money from keeping her alive and healthy, so she turned her. Valeria resented her for it, and vowed she would get back at the older vampire for it. After being turned, Val hunted down her abusers, the ones alive, and killed them slowly, one by one, but making sure the message was given to the other men, that their time was up. She did get her revenge on Louisa though, using her own good looks and charms to turn the other plantation owners against her maker. Once the killing was done, she went on, killing everyone who’d wronged her. Valeria spent a few years in Barbados after being turned, striking fear in the people there, being nicknamed «The Bloody Mary of Barbados».
After she was satisfied she travelled over to New Orleans to start a new chapter of her life. In New Orleans she meets Geraldine, a fellow vampire, and the two become fast friends, Geraldine bringing the newcomer to her brother and aunt in hopes of adding another member to the shrunken family. Her past isn’t immediately laid out there, but as she learns to trust the others she shows them the news paper clippings telling the tale of a mysterious female killer wreaking havoc on Barbados. They’re quite impressed and, and slightly worried.
She’s unsure, like Patience of believing Matthew when he comes knocking, but after some convincing she’s on board too, if only to get rid of Benjamin, who she’s had the misfortune of meeting in the past. She grows close to Ysabeau though, and decides to keep in touch after the fighting is over, when she goes back to New Orleans with her family.

As for the zodiac signs I took the positives of Virgo and the negatives of Gemini 🥰

The concept here is to send in a question or a letter request, and you’ll get a response from your fictional character of choice, from the list below.

FOR WANT OF A NAIL

Part Fourty-Six
Summary:  Baldwin Montclair had a string of ex girlfriends, a single child, and a  lifetime longer than most people could dream of to make all kinds of  mistakes. His family knew one which kept coming out of the woodwork to  irritate him every other century
Also on AO3
The house had been a whirlwind of activity since Martin had first brought Yvette home. Estienne had spent of his time cooing over the baby and worrying about the list of things that she would need. Josselin had rolled her eyes and gone down into the town, muttering something about over-emotional men.
Sister Rosaline hadn't been able to abandon her duties to join the household as Yvette's wet nurse, but she'd passed on the details of a second woman, Loyse, who had accepted the position. She was off somewhere now, setting up her things and sorting out the belongings of her own son, Jaquob.
Martin smiled. The boy had been hovering over Yvette all day, even letting her sleep on his lap while he held her hand.
Her first friend.
Yvette was awake now, eyes roving over her room. It was, temporarily, in the guest quarters while extensions to his tower were completed. There was a wooden cradle in the middle of the room - oak, covered in tangled vines and small birds - and a basket in the corner for dirty swaddling, but for the moment the room was bare of decoration.
'Do not worry,' Martin said softly, 'We shall have some tapestries cleaned and brought up for you.'
Yvette looked up at him, eyes rolling up immediately to stare at the ceiling then over at the window. Martin brought her over and held her up to the glass.
________________________________________________________________
'For the baby,' Miriam smiled, passing Martin a small wooden box.
Martin had given Yvette a proper Gaul baptism during their ride home. Now he had to pay for a Roman Catholic service to make everything legal and above board.
Matthew leaned over Martin's shoulder as he unboxed a silver spoon. The spoon was carefully engraved with YB, the letters entwined by tiny curlicues. 'That is beautiful!'
Martin leaned in and hugged Miriam. 'Thank you.'
'Of course! Anything for my favourite god-daughter.'
The guests parted behind her as Baldwin stepped through.
'Speaking of favourite god-daughters' Miriam murmured.
Yvette was gazing, enraptured, up at Baldwin as he carried her around. They had taken to each other immediately; Baldwin scooped her up and called her pignora, and Yvette shrieked with laughter for the first time ever and buried a tiny hand in his hair.
She was still playing with it now, winding copper strands through her fingers and watching the light play across them. Baldwin had a pinched expression on his face; as they drew closer Martin could smell why.
'All yours' Yvette cried out as Baldwin passed her to Martin, her big blue eyes filling with tears. Baldwin looked as though he'd been stabbed.
'Let us get you changed and Uncle Baldwin can carry you again' Martin kissed Yvette on the forehead as she started to sob, and went off to look for Loyse.
****
'What has happened?' Baldwin asked, as Matthew and Miriam blurted out 'Are you alright?'
'I asked Loyse to show me how to dress Yvette in case I ever need to in future.' Martin passed Yvette to Baldwin; he looked pale and green at the throat.
'And?' asked Baldwin, pointedly ignoring Miriam's unsublte shakes of the head.
Martin shuddered and turned even paler.
****
Later that evening, after the celebratory feast had died down and the guests had gone to bed, and Yvette had finally been peeled off Baldwin and put to sleep in the new nursery, Martin lay on his bed and stared at the ceiling.
Seeing his best friend holding his daughter, it was like - rītije - Martin swallowed the lump in his throat.
A future so tantalisingly close he could picture it as easily as breathing lay just in front of him on the other side of impossible and it was killing him.
Before, when it was just the two of them, - and isn't that a knife twist into his guts- he could pretend that it was fine, that meaningless hugs and stolen glances were enough to close the chasm in his chest.
Now though...
Now...
Now.
'He loves her too..' Martin rolled over, clenching fists into his pillow as he started to sob.
Author's Notes
From my research into medieval childrearing, it appears that nappies weren't used during the period. Instead, the child's swaddling acted as a kind of onesie plus, both clothing and diaper.
"...The most idiomatic and Roman of endearments is pignus. A pignus is whatever one gives as bond or security for a debt, or to assure appearance in court, good conduct, etc. By extension, a person who is a pignus can serve as a “collateral” or “hostage”—for example, in diplomacy between two states. When applied to children, as it sometimes is in epitaphs, in poetry and other emotive contexts, pignora casts them as “sureties” or “pledges” of the love of the parents, assuring the reality of their marriage. But in such contexts it has no legalistic flavor. Often the best translation is simply “dear ones” rather than something more literal, like “little guarantees.”" - Dickinson College Commentaries
Silver spoons: "In many religions, the christening of a baby is an extremely important occasion and one marked with a good deal of ceremony and hope for the future. It’s the moment shortly after birth where a child is named before their God and welcomed into the church as a newborn.
Many faiths have their own form of christening and celebration, but all these occasions tend to involve buying a gift for the new child. In many cases, this is a silver artefact or nicknack such as a spoon, box or bookmark.
There is a rich history for gifting silver christening spoons and it stretches back to Medieval times, perhaps even before then. The original reason for this was not because silver was a valuable metal but because it could help ward off evil and protect the child. The spoon later became a way to wish a child health and prosperity for the future and was highly symbolic.
As silver became a more valuable commodity, its gifting was more generally seen as a matter of prestige. It said something about your status in life and who you were. This is where the phrase ‘born with a silver spoon in their mouth’ came from, with all its negative connotations.
Today, giving a silver christening spoon remains part of the tradition and is usually given by a close family member such as a godfather or mother, brother or sister. The spoon can vary in design from the very ornate to a simple motif but it is normally engraved with the initials of the recipient child." - Edinburgh Silver
rītije/o - copulate (I'm using this as a stand-in for 'fuck' because the Proto-Celtic word list, which sadly is no longer available online, didn't have 'fuck' on the list).

A Matter of Blood
OC Halloween Challenge 2023
Day Three: Born In The Wrong Century
Movies depend on a lot of things, but time and place helps create the ominous feel for it. Like Crimson Peak that belongs to the revival gothic period of 1880s or Jason Voorhees waking up on a spaceship in the year of 2455, give your character(s) a new decade to explore and even monsters to face.
Surrounded by vampires who have lived through so many different times, there’s not really a time that Chizzy, Alina and Monty would want to go back to themselves – and because of Diana, the adventure would be fully possible if they so wished. That being said, even going back to the roaring 20s would show differences for them.
Chizzy would still be living in America, hearing stories of the War in Europe and part of her wondering if they couldn’t do something to help with it all, but also stress baking an awful lot. She’d never cross paths with Monty and Alina, so there’d be nobody to rein in her anxieties as much as the former does.
Alina would probably cross paths with Marcus when sneaking in to help with a fight that she has no right to be a part of. Her stubbornness, and his realisation of it, would probably be the only thing that stops him from dragging her away from the battlefield because it would only cause more problems for people. His concern for her would be obvious to the likes of Sooty, but still it is something she wouldn’t notice.
Monty would be in battle beside them, gently teasing his best friend about the woman he is now looking out for, along with trying to keep the secret of Creatures. Monty would also probably get into a lot of trouble for flirting and telling too many jokes when they need to be serious.

What do you think Baldwin’s reaction would be to someone (Nora, maybe?) giving him flowers or a gift?
Tumblr media
He’d be stunned at first. Not used to actually get anything.
But Nora is insistent, standing there with her arm stretched out with the gift or bouquet in hand.
«What’s this my love?» He’d ask, moving closer to her to look.
«A gift. Happy birthday love.» The smile on her lips so soft he couldn’t help but lean in for a small kiss.
«It’s not my birthday—»
«I know that—but no one knows when it is, so I’ve designated it for today.»
A laugh left him, more surprised than anything. «Nora—»
«Happy birthday Lucius.»
Baldwin wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her in for a hug, a soft «Thank you» leaving his lips.
The date became an annual day of celebration, the twins and Arielle especially loving that they had a day to celebrate him.

Tumblr media
Can be found in: “unexpected visitor”
Name: Patience Elizabeth Catherine Chauncey MacNeil
Nickname: Beth, Lilibet.
Age: 25
Born: Hadley, Massachusetts
Living: New York City, New York and New Orleans, Louisiana
Species: Vampire (a daemon before she was turned)
Occupation: healer, doctor.
Family: Obadiah MacNeil (father, deceased)
Catherine Chauncey MacNeil (mother, deceased)
Marcus Whitmore (Brother)
Ransome Fayrweather (nephew)
Geraldine (niece)
Philippe de Clermont (v-brother, through the same sire)
Oliver (son, deceased)
Valeria Bailey (adopted sister)
History: Patience is the younger sister of Marcus. She was sired by one of the oldest vampires in the world (possibly Philippe’s sire). Upon being turned her daemon dna triggered blood rage which made her uncontrollable which made her maker cast her aside. She resented anyone connected to her maker after that, which meant she wanted nothing to do with the de Clermont family.
Patience stayed clear of her brother when she found out he was a vampire too, through informants she had gained. But she couldn’t help but follow his moves, make sure they were never in the same place at the same time, that he wouldn’t know of her existence.
After Matthew and Juliette killed nearly all of Marcus’ children, save from Geraldine and Ransome, Patience approached her niece and nephew, caring for them, not that they wanted it at first, what they wanted was revenge. But she stayed with them, helping them build their lives (and following) in New Orleans.
She goes to great lengths to protect her family, going as far as to threaten anyone who will pose a threat to them, this includes having Dominico in a headlock and about to rip his head right off.

Amelia sat at her desk, typing away. Though it was Christmas Day, she had decided to come into the office--there was work to be done and if she didn't do it before New Years, she'd be worried for the whole vacation.
Besides, she wasn't doing anything for Christmas anyways; just sitting in her flat, drinking hot chocolate and watching some cheesy romcom on tv.
This seemed less pathetic. At least she thought so.
Suddenly, there was a soft knock on her open office door, and she jumped in surprise; she was supposed to be in the office alone today while everyone was off for the holidays.
But standing in the doorway was none other than Mr. Benoit Montclair, looking handsome as hell, even with his brow furrowed in concern, dark eyes on her.
"I thought everyone had the next week and a half off?" he said gently in his deep voice. He came into her office fully, standing in front of her desk.
Amelia blinked at him before responding, "they do--we do. But I wanted to finish this little financial snafu and it couldn't wait until the new year--"
"So you decided to come in on Christmas Day? No other day would suit you?"
She couldn't help but notice how he skipped over the "financial snafu;" did Mr. Montclair really trust her that much?
"I, uh, I don't have any family or anything to celebrate with. So, I thought I'd just get this done now." Heat rises to her cheeks, so Amelia switched it on him. "Why are you here, sir?"
Ben gave her a curt smile, lips pressed in a thin line. "My father is a workaholic and my sister lives in Japan."
"Oh...I'm sorry...."
He shrugs. "I don't really celebrate the holidays, anyways. And, like you mentioned, there is work to be done."
Running out of things to say, Amelia goes quiet. Her eyes slowly roam over her boss; from his Italian leather shoes, up his tall frame, and taking in his expensive suit--it probably cost more than her rent for a full year.
But what stopped her scan was a white envelope clutched in his hand.
Ben's eyes followed hers to the envelope, and he holds it up, glancing at it as if he also forgot he was holding. "Oh!" he started, "when I saw that you were logged in on site, I thought I'd bring you your Christmas bonus--so you wouldn't have to wait for the post like everyone else."
"Thank you, sir!" Amelia replied in shock. She had been looking forward to her bonus; it helped pay some of the end-of-the-year bills.
He walked closer to her desk, arm outstretched. But just as Amelia reached out for it, he flipped it out of reach. Confused, she looked up into his face, and he smiled softly at her.
"Do me a favor? Take the rest of your vacation off. I don't want to see yo here again before the new year, understand?"
The intensity in his dark eyes paired with that soft smile has her melting. "I--yes sir. And, um, you too?" She wasn't quite sure why she added that, but she couldn't stop the words from tumbling past her lips.
Ben's smile grew, showing a line of pearly white teeth. "I will try my best. It's hard when you're the boss."
And with that, he held out the envelope in his long, thin fingers. As soon as Amelia took it, Ben turned and headed out the door.
"Happy Christmas," he called over his shoulder before disappearing down the hallway.
"And happy new year," Amelia replied, sitting back. With her boss's departure, she felt a tension leave her body.
Shaking her head to clear it, she started typing again. But the thought of her Christmas bonus sitting on her desk kept pulling her attention. She knew she had to look at the amount, so she could better plan her bill payments.
Amelia used her envelope cutter to break the tape and opened it to reveal the cheque inside. But as she gazed at the amount, she almost dropped it in disbelief.
Her normal paycheque was £5000 a month; about £1k more than an entry position. She had been expecting a £100 bonus. Instead, she had received double her monthly amount.
This could pay bills for a few months! she thought, a lump in her throat. There had to be some mistake--but no, also in the envelope was a letter.
Eyes skimming over the words, Amelia found that Mr. Montclair gave her that bonus--as well as "other, faithful employees," the letter said--out of his own pocket.
It took her a few moments to process before she was able to continue working. But the rest of the day and well into the night, Amelia had a floaty feeling about her.

What if Gallowglass grew out his hair again--but longer, down his back--and he teaches Lyra how to do warrior braids?
Ooooo I want him to grow it back out! 😍
I feel though that Lyra might want to surprise him by learning it herself. Doing some searching in books, online, or talking to Diana, Ysabeau, and Miriam for inspiration.
Once the women of the family all know what she's planning, Freyja jumps in and just "You should have come to me first Lyra, these women, love to bits, don't know how to do propper warrior braids, especially not the ones from Gallowglass' time. I'll teach you."
The two bond over many nights practicing, while Gallowglass is none the wiser about his mates intentions.

Fic Rec Weekend List!
(was meant to post yesterday but Wash Day took long!) but without further ado, some fics I think you should very much read!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Right Bridgerton by stellata
Benophie is my life and love, but if you know me, you know I love a good crackship and Edwina/Benedict are one of my new faves. This is already a really fun fic, featuring Anthony and Benedict fighting over Edwina whilst Kate and Mary laugh in the background and Violet sighs.
Bridgerton and Sons by @newtonsheffield
Love this dearly, and everyone should read it! A brilliant modern Bridgerton AU.
This Town by @viscountessevie
You should read all of Sahara's fics anyway, but this is such a well-written exploration of John and Francesca and Frannie's grief. May have you sobbing.
Hope by TooYoungToFeelThisTired
Edwina's first ball after her scandalous first season doesn't go as planned. Panic attack but she luckily has a knight in shining armour!
Ragnall & Astraea, 1269-1270 C.E. by TheModernTypewriter
This series continues to have me in my feels and Addison is back and this time in Sept Tours. Can't wait to see the rest of her time.
A Touch of Homesickness and Dear Miss Marina Thompson by @isdathriantionnsgnadh
I love these fics! A Touch of Homesickness is a crossover of ADOW and Bridgerton in which the good Doctor Whitmore meets Miss Edwina when she's unwell and works to help her. Already so cute and so much fun.
Miss Marina Thompson is the story she deserves!! George and Marina fall in love and learn more about her family and her mother. Just in love with it!
Only You Always by @tiffanytlee  and The Embers of Our Love by cococris (@dreamofme9) are permanent fixtures lol.
