wife&mother

THE FUTURE LADY SLADE DETAILS so in Slade's search to find a wife, I thought it would be fun to start actually exploring this scenario. What if . . . Slade did indeed find someone he deemed suitable to be a mother to his daughter. Since the existence of his daughter is unknown/unconfirmed, he would most likely introduce Evelina to his future wife after he is engaged to see if they get along well. VERSE to ensure that this does not conflict with anyone's canon, we can keep this au for the time being. If things develop well and we can see this being part of both character's canon, then we can always change it from an AU plot to a Canon plot. PERSONALITY so I figure that in order for Slade to be engaged to someone, he would have to see qualities in her that he would consider fitting ones for a mother (caring, compassionate, nurturing, patient, kind, etc). Slade is not argumentative and would not be with someone who's personality drastically clashed with his as he would not want to expose Eveline to that tension. That being said, I don't expect her to be totally compliant or always accepting of his nature, because I mean . . . where's the fun in that?! We can always delve further into the details of this if anyone is interested. EVELINA I have Evelina set to be around 5 years old. She is his daughter from his first marriage but does not remember much about her mother. She is a sweet, affectionate, sharp, observant, intelligent and kind little girl. She speaks her mind and is rather bold. She loves chatting with people, quite sociable, and would most probablylike your lady almost instantly. Slade becomes a different person when he is around his daughter, deeply caring for her and striving to be a good father. Because of that, the two of them are quite close. I would likely write for Evelina in my posts just to make it easier. DYNAMIC now here's the interesting part. Slade does not like physical touch due to past traumas. It takes him a great deal of time to be comfortable enough around someone to touch them with an ungloved hand and with ease. So with that in mind, he would have no expectations of marital relations, especially on the first night. It is not something foremost on his mind. So, the reason as to why your girl may want to marry him can always be explored and complex. He is extremely wealthy so that is always incentive. Maybe she was trying to escape her home life? Maybe she decided to settle? Maybe she wanted security? Maybe she actually does cares for him? Maybe her decision was solidified after she met his daughter and developed a quick affection for her? The possibilities are endless! I am all for affection developing between them over time as that would also be super fun to explore. But the initial reasons of her marrying Slade can be totally up to you and something we can plot out. NOTES let me know if you're interested in playing out this dynamic with one of your girls. Or if you are thinking of a new character and want to jump right into some plots. Like I said, I am all for delving into the complexities of this marriage and I already have SO many thread ideas in mind: engagement, meeting Evelina, meeting Gilly, wedding, post wedding life, potentially her finding out about Slade's shady dealings and real business, her becoming a target of one of Slade's rivals, etc! It would just be really fun to explore different points of their relationship. BONUS your lady would also get to be Gilly the Goat's mother. FEEL FREE TO REPLY HERE OR PM ME!
