Think I've figured out the rest of my thoughts about the Adversary from a couple days back... almost all of the Chapter II Princesses seem to understand something about how their world works or is supposed to work—like the Prisoner knowing that she'll be fine as long as she isn't stabbed in the heart or the Tower understanding that the loops are about stories—and I think what the Adversary gets at is your relationship with the Shifting Mound.
Shifty and you are inherently in conflict. Whatever you're meant to represent in contrast to Her Transformation, you're in contrast to it. She repeatedly says during the final confrontation that it's conflict that brings meaning to life, and you're the one who exists to be in conflict with life itself. It's in the name of the achievement you get from the final confrontation—"Through Conflict/We Carve Meaning."
The Adversary understands that, instinctively, on some level. She gets one aspect of your relationship to Her, except it comes out as physical violence because it has to be filtered through the concrete concepts she can understand as a person within the Construct. (She's not like the Tower—she could never imagine that you and her might ever be anything beyond people.) It's not the entirety of your relationship—you are more than just conflict—but conflict is an essential part of the cycle of life and death that you and Shifty encompass. The Adversary understands that much, just as some of the other Vessels understand other aspects of your relationship.

My long STP fic is at war with my four other AUs which are just now beginning to also war with the fact that there are two really cool fics being posted on Tumblr right now consisting of relatively short, mostly self-contained chapters, and I'm starting to form an idea for a third

hi your tags got me thinking. so i know brandon has this very unconventional marriage history (smth about he eloped with his wife's aunt to take her money?) and didn't really get permission to marry mary tudor until much later. you said that's why frances wasn't in henry's will. so how could edward leave it to jane grey? esp as edward wouldn't recognize the pope's authority. if his said jane was legitimate but mary and elizabeth weren't, i see jane is legitimate herself but how could her claim be if it's from her mom, who according to henry's will, was kind of mary tudor's bastard daughter? and what was henry's reasoning in letting frances's children succeed if he said the legitimate line broke? also (sorry) if mary, elizabeth, frances and margaret douglas are all officially illegitimate, what's the argument for putting mary and elizabeth in the succession but not the other two?
Frances Grey married in 1533 without any dispensation, and Jane Grey was fiercely Protestant.
Not ‘kind of’ per say but the idea was to secure the succession, so you didn’t necessarily want to leave anyone to inherit whose claim and/or legitimacy could be successfully challenged.
Mary & Elizabeth are his own daughters, and thus in the direct line. Margaret Douglas had defied the crown way too many times for Henry to ever consider making any sort of exception re: her birth. Like, if Mary had not only defied his will for three years but also herself gotten into an entanglement and/or betrothal with Howard men, he probably would have excluded her asw.
