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!

[ appropriate meme for this one, finally! 'princess' not taken literally, ofc. ]

[ cursed prince/princess for either herself or kylo ren; good with either scenario! ]

[ Canonical fallen princess. She doesn't mind it much though. ]

( yes pls. cough asoiaf au cough. i have numerous possibilities for backstory ideas! )

[The third child (second son of three) of a corrupt king, skipped over in the line of succession when the crown prince disappeared and his younger brother was declared successor instead of him. Open to lots of options but he's definitely some variant of Not A Nice Guy.]

[Can I interest you in a fellow prince? One that would be some form of Fallen Princess. Is presumed dead and travels under a new name to avoid his mother learning that he is still alive.]

(definitely up for this AU)

[She was pretty much brought up as a princess in all but name. Medieval AU or cross-canon all welcome. Open to most scenarios, but I'll bet 1, 11, or 13 work best.

{{The bastard son of a warlord/king and his war-mage/court sorceress. Raised on lullabies of ruin and regicide, an instrument of his jilted mother's vengeance. For the purposes of this meme, I'm thinking he's either on his way to killing his father or he's already done it.}}

[Probably Prince Charmless but also interested in the Dethroned Prince and Cursed Prince options. Can play against any other option, or with "commoners"!]

[ it's canon! ]

[ if he's royalty, either the wise prince (focuses all his energy on keeping his people happy and taken care of) or the fallen prince (the king and queen are gone, the prince loses his position to an invading kingdom/plotting vizier/etc.). open to him being the non-royal party, though! m/m for shipping, crosscanon welcome! ]

[If you don't mind that I'm voicetesting, how would you feel about a prince/advisor ship? I do tend to view Robin more submissive in intimate situations. Robin is a fantastic fighter and tactician, and he's very much the loyal sort. If any of that sounds interesting, what would you think about a fallen prince situation where Robin helped Kaveh to flee somewhere safe? He's definitely the type who will do anything to keep his important people safe.]

[ i'd be down for a prince/advisor ship! and i like the sound of the scenario. kaveh would be equally protective over robin, maybe even to the point of wanting him to leave so he doesn't have to be tied to a fallen royal.

would you prefer to assume they're already romantically involved or to start from the two of them just being prince and advisor? ]

[Robin is very much the will die for someone if necessary sort, so even if he gets hurt he isn't about to leave. Sorry in advance for your worry over this idiot, Kaveh.

I'm absolutely a sucker for shipping, so I'd be absolutely down with them being already romantically involved. I'm good with whichever you prefer most.

Would you prefer they've already escaped, have just managed to escape or are in the process of escaping?]

[ 1, 3, 5 and 15 is canon, in certain ways and to certain extents. she's heir to the throne of jotunheim, the realm of the frost giants, but later while she's queen they're taken over by asgard and she's exiled. then she starts her plot for revenge.

since we're talking princess times she's not yet "hel" and is (mostly) a sassy, chaotic disaster child. love crosscanon and fantasy canon aus, and happy to play both gen and shippy stuff. ]

[An intelligent prince that's usually fine to stand in his older brother's shadow and do what's necessary for him to succeed. He could certainly be perceived as the evil prince although nowhere near as evil as his cursed husk dad. Also fine with AU concepts!]

[ i mean, yeah. ]

[Literally a princess, definitely the badass type.]

( princess in rags reporting in! )

[ "princess". precanon takes, altered canon takes, or aus. ]

[Voice testing a very old muse in a new form! Open to all options, but he's by far no prince...]

[ rebel or cursed prince, or changeling. open to other scenarios too! ]
