we queens (Reign)
Feb. 9th, 2014 12:20 pmwe queens - Reign ; Mary & Catherine, Henry/Catherine, Mary/Francis, Mary/Bash ; 2,600 words. Happiness is the one thing we queens can never have. Catherine and Mary are not so very different. (Character study set during 1.11.)
Note: Good heavens, this took forever to write! Probably because it involved an irrational amount of thinking, as opposed to just spewing out some OTP banter and calling it a day. (That's the life!) Anyway, one thing I've been super into about the past few episodes of Reign: the way Catherine/Henry has been presented as this really interesting cautionary tale for Mary and the way she chooses to pursue her relationships with Bash and Francis.
And that mirror sequence at the end of "Inquisition"? That is the stuff of my TV fangirl dreams! So I just had to do the feels-y introspective fic thing. Really, I had no choice.
( And if you're still breathing you're the lucky ones / 'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs. )
