Okay, I'm sorry but I need to know:

Adonis, Connie, Magda, and any Scroogeverse characters meeting Bea--what are the reactions? Bea is definitely going to start off schmoozy with them all, and Bess, at the very least, has told them all her mother was not... really a mother to her. They've all also seen the damage Bea has done to Bess to some sort of extent, some seeing more than others.

DO NOT APOLOGIZE, this is a golden ask. Ooooh, I loved thinking about this, hehe~

Let's go down the line:

Adonis: Icy cold.

He knows enough about how Bea treated Bess to know she's a scoundrel, and truly goes out of his way to avoid interacting with her. If they do speak, he's passive-aggressive ("Bea, shocked you could make it. Though you always did now how make an entrance, even when you weren't invited. It's a bold choice.") While he's obviously a man who believes people can redeem themselves, not only has Bea made no effort, but the ABUSE she spearheaded? If anyone can't be saved, it's people like her. He would avoid her openly. If Bea cornered him? "As if you weren't an awful enough woman for how you treated your own daughter, one of the loveliest beings to grace this planet, you have the nerve to be offended by my lack of respect to you? Ma'am, you deserve no respect, and I don't say that often. You are poisonous lye that has already been filtered through ashes too many times to be anything less than utterly poisonous. Now, please leave. Before I say something you'll regret." He's sympathetic to a degree: Jacob hurt her. But plenty of hurt people don't become monsters.

Connie: Disregards her existence.

She's used to verbal sparring from her days as a socialite, and has suffered through many long parties where she has had to play nice and fake a smile. With Bea, she's much more offensive than defensive. Connie would guard Bess and if Bea ever tried to play nice, Connie would not mince words. ("If I see you trying to suck up to Bess at ANY point, I will escort you away, personally. I will then stand there and watch as you call a cab, give them an address at least twenty miles away, and watch that that driver hauls your ass over the horizon.") If Bea and Connie were alone, she'd ignore her. And if Bea took issue with that? "You have as much of my attention as you deserve. The minimum amount. I care not for you or your deplorable attitude, or your delusional idea that you are a woman of any grandeur, least of all in the realm of personality." Connie is also somewhat sympathetic. She's been in a relationship with a terrible man, but CAN NEVER forgive Bea for how she treated Bess. Never.

Magda: Makes her life hell.

Magda spills wine on her. Trips her. Elbows her. Spits on her. "Mr. Scrooge, must we associate with her? We normally keep trash in the alleyway." Magda would make her life miserable and be outright aggressive to Bea in every way, shape or form. She's even recruit her husband Errol and her daughter in to follow her around and harass her. ("Did you know taffeta dresses are highly flammable? One wrong move, and...poof!") Magda is on Bess like white on rice. She makes sure Bea doesn't lay a hand on her, and if she does? She had been known to throw paprika in the eyes of perverted men. Let's just say Bea would be the first woman to recieve such honors. Some say they're still a little blind.

Theresea: Legitimately would hurt Bea.

A bonus, because OH BOY. Theresea's biggest philanthropic effort is construction of ethically run orphanages, shelters, and housing for less privileged individuals, including children. Theresea adopted Constance. She could biologically have children, but chose to adopt because she saw a soul who needed a loving home. To see Bea, a mother, treat her child like a burden? Upon hearing what Bea did to Bess, a woman she's come to adore like another daughter, Theresea would brandish her fan/cane and literally begin beating Bea. "How DARE you?! You bring a sweet child into this world, then punish them for being born? You hurt her, verbally abuse her, torment her like you are a righteous judge and jury? You are swine! Worse than swine! You should be the fertilizer people use on their farms, you rotten woman!"

Main Masterlist ・❥・Joaquin Torres Masterlist

Paris. The city of love.

Oh, how you wished and dreamt ever since you were a little kid to come here and get married to the man of your dreams. What wouldn't you give for this fantasy to become real? All this planning and daydreaming and now you were here, in this beautiful city!

You agreed to come here to help your sick boss who couldn't be there for the proceeding week. What an opportunity. The first three days you spend your time between sightseeing and working dedicatedly to meet all your bosses requirements. On the fourth day since your projects were all ahead, on your work you decide to let loose and have a few drinks at a beautiful place near the Eiffel tower.

That was exactly ten hours ago. Right now?

Your head is buzzing and throbbing. A burning sensation is filling your stomach and you are blinking slowly trying to understand your surroundings. Waking up, you realize you are naked, that is very much true, you pull at the sheets to cover your body. The next moment you are horrified to find a man, with a beautiful back wearing a gold chain hanging on the back of his neck and with the loveliest fluffiest curly hair you had ever gazed upon.

He wasn't snoring, he was sleeping soundly, small breaths escaping his mesmerizing plump lips. You take a long look at him and you reach out with your hand to tap on his shoulder, only to find something odd adorning your finger.

A ring.

A gold ring.

A gold ring on that finger.

The sound of a high-pitched scream echoes through the room as you jump away from the bed. Mortified you look at the man who was now awake looking at you in surprise. He was handsome. You were naked. At least the wedding night must have been fun!

"Mi Amor, don't panic!"

Oh shit, he was pretty. And his voice was smooth, made you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. He was the definition of a very handsome man. Is very hard of you to stop looking at him.

And his curls. You did always go crazy for men with curly hair. Maybe that's not a bad decision- oh wait. You're not supposed to be distracted by his very good-looking Adonis-like body right now. Why is there a ring on your finger?!

"Oh no, oh god, oh please no. This can't be happening right now!"

Your voice is trembling as you are holding on to your sheet. In contrast, his expression is calm, a small reassuring smile on his lips.

"You don't remember last night?"

He tries to reassure you, wrapping the sheet around him and taking a few steps closer to you.

"I don't remember anything!"

"You agreed to marry me."

"I didn't agree to anything!"

"Carino, you said I was the man you were always looking for and wouldn't let me get away. Exactly like that. Then you found some lawyer you knew and he drew up a contact for us. He even brought us the rings."

Well, he isn't wrong. You did always say that the first time you would find a handsome man you would snatch him up immediately. Guess drunk you were really bold and determined. And you had a friend here who worked in law and specialized in common-law marriages. It all adds up.

"What are we even supposed to do now? You don't know me, I don't know you!"

"We can take it slow, carino, despacito, escuche, por favor. We will take it slow. Alright? We can get to know each other. Breakfast on me?"

He takes another step closer to you and he extends his arm for you to hold as a sign of peace.

"I don't even know your name."

"My name is Joaquin."

"Well, my name is Y/N."

With the puppy look on his face, it would be futile for you to resist. You take his hand and hold it softly. You can feel his heart beating through the veins and you squeeze his hand.

Maybe, just maybe, waking up (drunk and married) in Paris is not so bad after all...
