Day 13 Theme - The Ruler

[cmk418]

Today's theme is The Ruler.

Here are some ideas to get you started: This could be anyone from the Queen of the Gods to the head of the student council. This woman has power and isn't afraid to use it. What kind of leader is she? How has having power affected her? How did she come into this position- did she have to work for it or was it something given to her? What would happen if she was to give it up?

Just go wherever the Muse takes you. If this prompt doesn't speak to you, feel free to share something that does. You can post in a separate entry or as a comment to this post.

Want to get a jump start on tomorrow's theme? Check out the prompt list in the pinned post at the top of the page. Please don't post until that day.

Day 13: fanart, Merlin - Morgana and Morgause

[sisterdivinium]

Title: Birthright
Fandom: BBC Merlin
Characters: Morgana and Morgause
Rating: G
Notes: Done with felt tip pens, Chinese ink and graphite. In my mind, the story followed from the end of s3 very differently (well, from the end of s2 if I'm being honest) but I will not elaborate or else we'll be here all day, possibly all year :)
Summary: "By the power vested in me, I crown thee Morgana Pendragon, Queen of Camelot."

Over here, at my journal!

DAY 12 - FIC - NARUTO - UZUMAKI KUSHINA

[lovelytomeetyou]

Day 12 - Her Sanctuary  

Title: Inside a Spiral 
Fandom: Naruto
Characters: Kushina Uzumaki/Namikaze Minato
Rating: Gen
Summary: If someone were to tell the young Kushina who recently arrived at Konohagakure, that her son would be named after food — one of her favorites, to be fair — and after a book from a sketchy writer at best, that someone best grit their teeth because a punch was soon to follow. Or: Kushina dealing with Kyuubi being difficult and Minato is there for her.

Day 13: Fic - Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans - Kudelia

[alchemicink]

After much waffling, I decided to pick a character whose "ruler" role isn't metaphorical. In the epilogue to this series, Kudelia finally ends up with real political power to make change on her world. Like many of the other characters I chose to write about this year, I love her determination 😊

Title: The fight goes on
Fandom: Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans
Character: Kudelia Aina Bernstein
Rating: G
Length: 150 words
Summary: Kudelia sits at her desk with the weight of a new title on her shoulders

Character: Arya Stark (with Bran Stark, Brienne of Tarth, Yara Greyjoy, Sansa Stark, and Jon Snow)
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 330
Summary: Arya takes a break from her West of Westeros excursion to return home
A/N: I had the hardest time picking a character for this prompt and then I remembered Arya's "What's West of Westeros?" line and this fell into place from there.
