the prince & princess trope meme

DIRECTIONS:
oo1. comment with your muse & add preferences in the subject
oo2. use RGN to get your prompt (1-20)
oo3. tag around and have fun!
oo4. don't forget to avoid those dragons. unless you like dragons.



oo1. Badass Princess ♛ She is no ordinary princess—she wouldn’t be interesting if she was, now would she? No, this girl does not need a knight to save her, not when she can often use a sword better than he. But what happens when she gets in over her head?

oo2. The Wise Prince ♛ Often, this prince isn’t the sweet and charming one you see running around the woods hunting deer and the like. Nope, he’s stuck in meetings and taking care of paperwork, ensuring his people are happy. Can someone convince him to take a break?

oo3. Daddy’s Little Villain ♛ This is new. A beautiful as she might be, beware: this girl is just like her evil sorcerer uncle or father, and is twice as crafty. Girls can’t be evil villains, after all, so that means she has something to prove. Good luck!

oo4. Prince Charmless ♛ He was supposed to be kind and honorable, brave and generous, but it turns out that he is the exact opposite of all your dreams. Demanding or cold, a total jerk, or just an annoying pain in the butt, he is no royal ideal.

oo5. Fallen Princess ♛ It might not have been her fault, or it might have been. Either way, this princess no longer holds a royal status, and is living amongst commoners. Is it a secret? Is she a princess in hiding? Or is she just biding her time?

oo6. The Evil Prince ♛ Such a lovely smile! But watch out for those sneaky eyes. A prince doesn’t have to be a wonderful example of humanity. Sometimes, he wants what everyone else does: more money, more land, more power, but he can get it with some planning.

oo7. Princess Classic ♛ Think Disney: she is the epitome of perfection, beautiful and always kind, more than willing to be a merciful ruler, and always under some pesky spell that denies her one true love for a while. But is it so great living up to such expectations?

oo8. The Warrior Prince ♛ Forget about castles and rolling hills with trouble brewing outside of the kingdom. Determined and honorable or jaded and cold, this kind of prince knows what the battlefield is like. But can he learn to relax or handle a peaceful meeting well?

oo9. Princess In Rags ♛ Cinderella knows exactly what this means. Like a fallen princess, she has been forcibly stripped of her wealth, title, and decent clothing. However, she doesn’t let that put her down. Good times will come back to her, but how?

o10. The Rebel Prince ♛ Maybe he doesn’t want to rule. Maybe he wants to go out and kill that dragon, or maybe he has left a princess at the altar. This prince has a rebellious streak and nothing can stop him from his goals. But where will his hotheadedness take him?

o11. Spoiled Brat ♛ She is totally not a princess, not the kind we like to think of anyways. Rude and demanding, she never thinks of anyone but herself, or if she does, then it’s always for some other selfish reason. Can someone teach her a lesson?

o12. The Changeling ♛ It’s a hard thing to do, but sometimes the royal heir has to be hidden away for his own safety. But there is always something that makes them stick out. Be it a birthmark or their own natural talents, how does he discover his true lineage?

o13. Well, Excuse Me, Princess! ♛ What is her problem? This guy has bent over backwards for her, and all he wants in return is a little credit or maybe an appreciative kiss on the cheek. But maybe she does like him, or there is some pesky princess protocol stopping her.

o14. The Cursed Prince ♛ It’s not just princesses who get placed under curses. Guys do too! But what horror has befallen our beloved prince? Is he ugly? Can he not speak? Is he now some horrible beast? Or is he under a sleeping spell waiting true love’s first kiss?

o15. Winter Royal Lady ♛ A princess is one thing, but a Queen of Winter is another. It’s a step up, and for another, whatever season or entity you choose to be the sole ruler of, you can bet it gives you a lot more credit and power too. Don’t let it get to your head!

o16. The Dethroned Prince ♛ He’s brooding and angry, and maybe he deserved to be dethroned. Then again, he could be the dashing prince who has to run from the law because it’s turned against him and the people, doing his best to bring back true justice to the land!

o17. Girl In The Tower ♛ It’s one of the most classic tropes, a princess stuck in a tower guarded by magic spells or dragons. Sometimes it’s for her own safety, or because of a curse, or because someone wants to use her. Can you free her? Or does she even want freedom?

o18. The Sheltered Prince ♛ He doesn’t know a thing about life outside of the palace, and that isn’t quite his fault. At least he wants to learn about the outside world and improve himself, right? Have some patience and show him around. This prince could surprise you!

o19. Fairytale Ending ♛ It is the goal of every fairytale we have come to know, and the goal of most stories. Who doesn’t like a happy ending? The trick is, though, how to get to it. What trials will you go through? What is your happily ever after anyways?

o20. Roll Again ♛ Looks like you get to decide your own fate by picking your own adventure, or leaving it up to chance again!

Agatha of Woods Beyond | The School for Good and Evil

[areaderprincess]

[She's ... pretty much the badass princess type. or at the very least a royal who actually does something.]

Mal | Descendants

[callmeaschemer]

[evil fairy? evil-turned-good-by-love? long lost princess? you decide!]

Ruby Rose | RWBY | OTA

[just_want_normal_knees]

(OoC: Always wanted to be the heroic knight, but maybe she can be someone else?)

Grace Ford | OC

[barre_none]

[Always here for the princess trope tbh]

Djem Ahmad | OC

[fresh_to_deaf]

[Really like the sheltered prince option for him, or rebellious maybe?]

squall leonhart | ffviii

[restands]

( ota ; in search of a knight )

[unkeptpromises]

((omg a Squall. Uhm! I only have FF7 muses. Zack or Tifa. if that's up your alley?))

Eleven | Stranger Things

[theweirdo]

[A troubled, quiet princess, likely a girl in the tower. Gen, please, unless you're Mike or someone else her age.]

( yes, please, so very much! cross-canon & various AUs very much welcome! feel free to PM to brainstorm ideas. o/ )

Diana | Rule of Rose

[redroseduchess]

[She's definitely the evil princess. In canon, she's the strong-willed princess, but really that means she's a stubborn little jerk.]

Lola Pacini | Degrassi

[threatenwithcuteness]

(She's either a willful princess, a lost princess, or a playful good fairy. I'd also have rescue a prince in distress if we want to gender flip the roles. F/M if we're going for the storybook romance (but she'll save a princess in need cause she's nice).)

Rory Monroe ★ OC ★ m/f

[from_dawn_till_busk]

(leaning towards princess in rags for her)

lily (evans) potter. harry potter.

Bodhi Rook | Rogue One: A Star Wars Story | OTA

Ardyn ツffxv☽ ota

[ultravires]

( Oh, ... oh dear.. tho~ )

10? surely this won't... be a trainwreck...

[nocteconsilium]

[ Going out and seeing the kingdom before he actually takes the throne and is shackled to Insomnia had seemed like a great idea at the time. Sure, his dad will be furious when he finds out what Noctis has done, not to mention Ignis and Gladio, and Prompto's probably going to be murdered covering for him, but what kind of king is he going to be if he doesn't even know what life is like outside of the crown city's walls? There's no way he'd ever be allowed out on his own, but what his dad doesn't know won't hurt him. Maybe.

It's too late now, even if his little flight of fancy is discovered. He's outside the city's walls and outside the Wall. Too late to turn back.

Which may be his biggest mistake; the borrowed motorcycle doesn't have a bottomless gas tank, and Noctis had neglected to check on what kind of currency is used outside of Insomnia.

In short, he's stuck now. Unless he wants to ring up his dad and ask for someone to come pick him up, and no, that's not happening, he'd rather warp strike his way back to the crown city, thanks.

But that does leave him in a bit of a lurch, stuck at the gas station, staring with an unmistakably dismayed face at a sign advertising gas for 10 gil. What the hell is a gil? ]

Zelda | LoZ:OoT | OTA

[wisdominshadows]

[Canonically a Fallen Princess, also technically a Wise Princess. The latter comes with the magic triangle.]

[just_want_normal_knees]

(OoC: Stupid idea, but perhaps having Ruby here rescuing Zelda as a Fallen Princess? Perhaps getting her out of the castle as its taken over?)

Mary Crawley | Downton Abbey

[thequitecontrary]

[well she's definitely a princess, though I don't know if she quite fits any of those tropes. She's a stubborn and opinionated one. M/F for shipping,]

Weiss Schnee | RWBY | ota

[whiteas]

Rider | Fate/zero

[hellenization]

(Def. the Warrior or Rebel prince, but very happy to play with other options)

[chocorune]

[Now there were reasons as to why one should be very, very careful when stepping into the domain of a witch. You just might end up in a trap and laughed at by the young witch that had prepared it.]

Comfortable in there?

[Chocola were floating around on a broomstick over the bubble that had the man trapped, a big grin playing on her lips. This was fun. It was always fun to prank travelers. This one seemed more rugged then an ordinary traveler, having her intrigued.]

Hey, who are you and what are you doing here. Are you a warrior? Are you any good with that sword? Where do you come from?
