ㅤTink.ㅤ ㅤ 21+, she/her pronouns. original multi-fandom character. Blog will be heavily based upon selected verse canon while also running ten miles in every direction on five different tracks. i.e. highly chaotic. timezone is gmt/bst. I do not interact with anyone under 20. Discord is available on request for both plotting and writing purposes. For the latter I ask we have a thread going first.

low activity. . . ㅤmutuals only. This is a selective and private blog. Please reblog from the source, I am not a meme blog and will block for it if it happens repeatedly. homophobia, transphobia etc is not tolerated here. This is a no policing zone, meaning I will not police the content of your blog, all I ask is to tag nsfw and potential triggers found in my rules below.
and your hail Mary feels hollow in the face of all that red
I have a zero tolerance for drama policy and will not tolerate people policing my blog. No call-out's are welcome here and you won't find me participating in any either. I have no interest in dni's or people i cannot interact with and it's highly unlikely i'll take any notice. smutting is highly unlikely to happen. and it's unlikely you'll find me participating in sinday very often, if at all so please tag nsfw accordingly. I'm a ship whore but I absolutely ship with chemistry.All characters mentioned within bryn's bio are set connections i see for my muse but can be discussed. I do not do pre-established relationships unless heavily plotted. Formatting on this blog will vary. The most you will see is the occasional double spaced, coloured reply, nothing fancier but i am not consisten with the way i format. If this bothers you then this isn't a blog you'll enjoy following.I do not do follow for follow. If I follow you, it means I want to write. The only time I will interact with none-mutuals is if I broke mutuals by unfollowing but did not soft/hard block. Reasons for this can vary to triggering content to my dash being ccluttered with spammy posts or may simply have been due to inactivity but does not mean i no longer wish to write.
My own writing preference is multi-para but I don't care how much or how little you reply in return, the uquality is far more important than the quantity. I will sometimes do smaller, para based posts, usually for starter calls and prompt replies. If you have a length preference please let me know a head of time! I do occassionally write via mobile but usually meme responses, unreplied to starters or small para based threads that won't clog the dash when i can't format.Memes are probably the easiest way to get things going with me. The mun suffers from anxiety and sometimes talking to people is just hard. That isn't to say i'm anti-plot because I love plotting but I can be very very slow, especially if I don't actively have ideas. Please ensure you read my bio in full before interacting and understand who bryn is. IF OC siblings aren't your vibe, again this blog is not for you. I am more than happy to interact with fellow oc's.Please tag: self harm, animal abuse and disordered eating. These things can be triggering to me and again i'm potentially going to unfollow if it's not tagged. I know these rules are fairly long but I promise I'm pretty easy going and friendly once you get to know me! Tumblr can just be meh so I like to put my stance on things out there to avoid confusion. Don't be a dick and we'll get along just fine.
ㅤbronwyn alessia mikaelson,
ㅤbronwyn alessia mikaelsonㅤ ㅤis the adopted daughter of Esther and Mikael Mikaelson and the adoptive sister of the original siblings, the youngest among them, however she has no memory of her true heritage and much like her siblings, believes she is biologically one of them. While it is possible ssome of her elder brothers may have vague memories of bryn's arrival into the family, it is likely they were too young to truly understand what was happening and where the girl came from. they may recall her magic from when she was a child but this is unlikely to have seemed odd given their own families heritage.Bryn has a slender but curvy disposition, standing around 5”4. She has brunette tresses that are naturally wavy but she often curls it to maximize the effect. She has azure hues, which are very expressive. They become stormy and somewhat gray whenever she is angry or upset and tend to sparkle when she’s in a good mood.Bryn could be described as two sides of the same coin, on the one hand she can be very manipulative, vindictive, hard-hearted and perhaps even cruel, going to extremes when it means getting something she wants, whereas on the other hand, she has a softer side that is rarely shown to anybody outside of her immediate family.Naive, jealous, emotional and perhaps even a tad unstable, when it comes to her emotions, Bryn sometimes struggles to cope greatly, especially when it comes to love or anything revolving around her past. She prefers to be seen as strong and would go to great lengths to protect her family, despite how much she sometimes despises them and their methods. Tend to fall back on coping mechanisms such as alcohol.

ㅤhistory,

ㅤㅤㅤearly life,ㅤ
Bronwyn Alessia Mikaelson is the adopted daughter of Mikael and Esther Mikaelson, her mother was a close friend of Esther's, another powerful witch but also a satanist. Nora Price was overwhelmed with joy when she discovers she is pregnant and Esther is the first she tells. The two spend many nights preparing for the child and deciding on a name, Nora's husband being mostly absent.However, little did anybody know the events that would fall upon them.On the night of the winter solstice, Bronwyn Price is born screaming, a storm raging overhead a sign of the great power that would come. Nora cradles her baby in her arms, sobbing and hours later places her in a cradle in a makeshift alter, flowers shoved down the girls throat. Esther and Mikael discover her mid ritual and Mikael shoves a sword through the woman before she can finish the spell, Esther running to the baby and immediately easing the flowers from her throat.She gently takes her from the cradle, cradling her in her arms and instantly falls in love. She and Mikael decide to take the child and raise her as their own. The signs of her power are almost immediate when the child sets a hay bale on fire during an temper tantrum and Esther decides to bind her powers to not only ensure her and everyone around her was safe but so the girl would never know anything of her true lineage and would only ever know being safe and loved.She was fairly close to all her siblings, adoring them all equally although being particularly close to Finn and Kol. The young idolized Elijah however and always trie to find ways to impress him and Niklaus, not understanding their fathers hatred towards the latter. She is very much distraught upon being turned, never forgetting the moment the man she called father drove a blade through her, causing her to wake as a monster.She would never forigve either parents for the misery they would cause. She follows along with her siblings when Niklaus tells them of their mothers death, in fear of their father. After attacking a caravan belonging to nobles in fine clothing who were clearly travelling to a nearby castle, Rebekah suggested that they take their victims' clothing and pose as them so they could live more comfortable lives and after finding Luicen hiding whom had over heard the discussion, this is decided upon, the servant offering to help with them their ruse and teach them how to behave.
Together they travel to the castle, only just managing to pass the act and are welcomed into the court. Unlike her siblings whom seemed to be unable to behave themselves, Bryn found herself making herself at home, fascinated by the culture, the fine clothing and the entertainment available. She easily keeps herself occupied in the months spent at the castle without once coming close to breaking their cover.However when rumors began to spread of demons who fed on human blood, ravaging the nearby villages they are forced to go on the run once again, especially Tristan, Lucien and Aurora are also turned. She is completely unaware of Elijah’s actions, compelling the trio to think they were him, Klaus and Rebekah. Their family next settles in Italy in 1114 and this is when Bryn begins to feel the changing dynamics of the family. Kol had already separated from them, along with Klaus, killing and turning people indiscriminately, causing rumors to begin travelling around, rumors which the rest of the originals had begun to discover upon on their own travels.Bryn becomes deeply tired of running and the violence and death her family seemed to leave in it’s wake but despite this remains by their side, unwilling to leave the only companions she had. She would occasionally have her own adventures wherever they settled but was reluctant to ever make any real connections unlike her siblings, knowing they would end up fleeing again sooner or later. Confrontations with Klaus begin when Finn is daggered, Bryn insisting that it was wrong and he shouldn’t have to suffer such a fate for not being a monster like him, like the rest of them. any opportunity to dissuade him or undagger Finn fails however.She warns Kol about his violence when they settle in Spain, the two’s relationship now being very distant and dysfunctional, Kol reveling in the violence and blood shed whereas she would become increasingly upset with him for it, not wanting to leave yet another ‘home’ because of him. This isn’t to say she is pleased when he is daggered because she is far from it. distraught, she tries continuously to undagger him, until she is threatened by the same fate. It’s at this point Bryn first separates from her family, no longer feeling like one of them and unable to be involved in such toxic dynamics. She refused to live in fear of the dagger should Niklaus feel she had done him wrong.
ㅤㅤㅤchapter ii,ㅤ
Around 1820 Bryn finds herself staying with a human family, the hastings, which consists of a widowed father and his two children. Nick who is 17 and his younger sister, Arabella , who is 4. after compelling the father of the family to take her in, claiming her aunt sent her after her parents were murdered, Bryn stays with the family for around 4 years, for the first time making an emotional attachment to people outside her family. She dotes on Arabella and gets along greatly with Nick, even going as far as to work at a local tavern, craving normality. She however leaves after turning ‘21’ not wanting anyone to get suspicious at her lack of aging.1826 - 1954 In 1926, Bryn meets Raven at a farmers market in Alberta. The first time she meets the girl, she is wearing a white sun dress, a wooden basket on her arm as she wonders the market stalls, smiling and laughing as she goes along. Bryn finds her smile intoxicating from the moment she first sets eyes on her. With her wild blonde hair and fierce blue eyes, the girl was quite the beauty but perhaps what drew her in more than anything was the way she spoke kindly to everyone. Always making time for anyone who started talking to her. Which was plenty.The second time Bryn meets her is in a local tavern and the girl is working as a bar maid. She soon discovers the girl is as sweet as honey and as stubborn as a boar.Being physically around the same age as Raven, the girl has immediately started talking to her, clearly trying to make friends with her and no matter how much Bryn just nodded or ignored her, the girl seemed determined to make Bryn like her. The next time she sees her, she's in a fight with some other girls. Bryn doesn't step in. She watches. Watches as she gets mocked, watches as she gets hit. Watches as she gets back up again and punches the other girl in the face. When it's all over, she turns to Bryn and smiles. She doesn't whine or complain, she wipes the blood from the mouth with the back of her hand, wiping it on what looked like an expensive dress, walks over and starts talking as if nothing had happened.And Bryn finds it difficult to ignore her. She admires the girls courage and finds that Raven was exactly how she wanted to be. From then on, she doesn't ignore her anymore and the two soon become good friends. Bryn spins tales about her brothers. The troublesome Kol with a wild spirit, the noble Elijah, the bastard Klaus (who she loves dearly despite her words.), and Finn. Perhaps the kindest of them all. For the first time in a long time, Bryn finds herself wanting to tell someone she wasn't entirely human.Little did she know, events would soon lead to just that.
It's 1830 and the middle of the night when suddenly there's screams from nearby and the smell of smoke fills the air. The tavern had been set fire to. Raven's family tavern. Arson. Raven survives. Her family does not. Bryn holds the girl in her arms, trying her best to console her. The girl is now being left an orphan.
It's a year later Bryn finally turns her.Raven gets shot and Bryn turns her while she lays dying, unable to watch the life fade from her eyes. She teaches Raven everything about being a vampire and the two remain by eachother's side, rarely travelling away from eachother. The two go so far as to become red cross nurses in the war, Bryn desiring to give something back.Until finally, in 1955, Bryn hears rumors about her family. And leaves. In 1955, Bronwyn was befriended and eventually betrayed by one of the Augustine Doctor’s, when a source tells her that have information about her family. Their whereabouts. She was under special interest since she was an original and she endured at least 50 years of repeated torture and experiments. She was in the cell opposite Enzo and Damon and so knew and befriended them both, although not a great deal. Unlike Damon and Enzo, Bryn’s humanity was off for a majority of her years kept in the tiny cell, trying to block out the excruciating pain. She was never very talkative even with her humanity on, always seeming to be stuck inside her own head. She remained a captive even after Damon’s escape and sympathized with Enzo considering it was his plan, eventually becoming close to him and opening up more to the younger vampire.Bronwyn finally finds a way out around 40 years later when one of the Doctor’s make a fatal mistake during one of the experiments and Bryn drains them dry, breaking free of her bonds and fleeing immediately. As much as she wanted to free Enzo too, she didn’t and still lives with guilt even now. Catching wind of her siblings' arrival in Mystic Falls, she hopes that maybe she could earn their forgiveness. However, when two of her brothers are killed, Bryn flees, unable to stick around and watch more of them die. Torn apart by grief, she remains in contact only with Rebekah.It’s months later when she finally joins her family in New Orleans after an urgent message from Rebekah about Elijah's absence. The reunion doesn’t go too well, Niklaus furious that she dare show her face again and is extremely un-trusting of her. When they finally get Elijah back, he seems to accept her return better; though tends to withhold information for the sake of keeping Niklaus under wraps.
She's very eager to earn back her family's trust and would perhaps even give her life if it meant protecting them. As dysfunctional as they are, they're her family and Bryn finds herself feeling guilty for leaving after realizing how much she had missed.

ㅤㅤㅤthe walking dead,ㅤ
Growing up the child or a drug addict, Bryn quickly learnt how to become independent from a young age, she learnt how to be seen but not heard and slip through the cracks, never drawing too much attention to herself incase her mothers latest boyfriend would take an interest in her.The court case that would follow her father turning up on her doorstep traumatises her, being examined and cross examined, forced to lie and also withold the truth of what she endured with her mother.Later forced to attent therapy sessions, Bryn refuses to speak about anything.College is supposed to be a fresh start but instead she meets Andre and swaps one form of control for another, becoming a watered down version of the girl she was beginning to become.When the Apocalypse begins and Arabella dies, Bryn slowly starts to become more bitter and starts to talk back, despite the consequences from Andre, she begins to realise just how toxic he is and comes to despise him, leading her to kill him after he holds a gun to Daryl's head.The events lead her to become more open and speak her mind more, refusing to let anybody put her back down again. The girl that started meek and being controlled, regains her own control over her life.Bryn grew up in a broken home, the product of a one night stand while her mother was on a break from her boyfriend. A mistake. A burden. She’d ruined everything from the moment she was born. Her mother was a drug addict, only caring about where she was going to get her next fix, bringing a different man into their home every other night and either palming her daughter of on anyone who would have her or leaving her to fend for herself.Her parents split when she was only four years old, her father trading her mother in for a younger model and in her mothers eyes, it was Bryn who was to blame. Her husband had never wanted kids and child birth had left her with stretch marks and added weight she couldn’t get rid of. Her mother was beautiful by any means and far from over-weight but none of that mattered. All that mattered was Bryn had ruined her marriage and she never let her forget it.By the age of 6, She is fully dependant on herself and a delinquent to say the least, often stealing from her mother and whatever man she had brought home, just so she could buy food. At the age of 8, her father turns up on the doorstep and her mother opens the door high, causing her father to start a two year long custody battle which he eventually wins. However, Bryn is nothing more than a prize to him and while his new wife dotes on her, he remains uninterested as does Bryn, having no interest in family life, that is until she meets the Hastings.At the age of 14, she begins living with the Hastings, after getting kicked out of school she begins to attend one near them, the only reason she stays. The Hastings family consisted of a widowed father, his son and daughter, the latter of which soon becomes intrigued with Bryn. At first, Bryn couldn’t care less but open realizing the Hastings really care, she begins to become attached, feeling at home for the first time.At the age of 18, she begins college, studying forensic science. It’s then she meets Andre, Tall, Dark, Handsome and charming - but also abusive. Something she wouldn’t realise until later.One year into her course, at the age of 19, the apocalypse starts and Bryn is thrown into a world she knows nothing about.The Hastings Father is one of the first to become infected and turn and Bryn practically has to drag Arabella off her fathers body, both crying as Andre shoots him. As the streets begin to get over run, Bryn, Andre and the two Hastings children (Nick - 21 and Arabella - 8.) pack up and leave in the now dead father’s camper van.
They’d on the road for weeks before eventually coming across a camp of survivors [Shane’s group.] and join with the offer of sharing what food they have [Which Andre is not to happy about and gives Bryn a mouthful about it when they are alone.] and thankfully they are accepted.Bryn, while not really socialising with anybody thanks to Andre’s jealous is thankful for the small amount of normalcy it brings Arabella having other children to play with.As Bryn becomes more isolated from the group, her relationship with Andre starts to develop further away from friends and more towards significant others though she is unsure she wants this. She does her best to pull her weight in the camp and at other points, often finds herself spending time with the children, having a particular spot for them. While they were just as observant as the adults, they were less likely to say anything and spending time with them made Bryn feel a sense of belonging. The fact that someone besides Arabella trusted her.When a hoard attacks the camp and multiple are killed, Bryn narrowly escapes being bit. However, Arabella is and Andre doesn’t hesitate, shooting her in the head before she has even turned and making Bryn hysterical. She spends the rest of that night in the camper van they had arrived in, locking Andre out despite knowing how furious he would be and helping to bury the dead the next morning.She helps search when Sophia goes missing, also doing her best to help console Carol, insisting that Daryl and the others would find her. At the farm, Bryn blossoms, coming out of her shell just a little bit and becoming more a part of the group dynamics. She learns to shoot and also helps on supply runs. It’s on one of these runs she finds Sais blades and though having never comes across the weapon before, somehow finds them alluring and starts to teach herself how to use them, soon becoming quite confident and skilled though she is no expert. She keeps these weapons a secret from Andre, knowing she wouldn’t have them for long if he knew. She remained mad at him, despite the consequences of her bitterness toward, still upset over the death of Arabella.Bryn ends up shooting Andre while they are the prison when he gets into an altercation with Daryl, merely because of a difference of opinion and the fact Bryn took Daryl’s side hadn’t helped any. She doesn’t /just/ shoot him, she kills him, hands trembling with nerves after as she stared where he lay, gun still pointed at him. His constant abuse of her, Him killing Arabella and now starting fights with people sending her over the edge.With Andre dead, she becomes much happier and open and also tougher, able to fend for herself once she gets over the initial shock of killing someone. She comes to get along with all of them, being particularly fond of Daryl, Carol and Beth. Finding she rather enjoyed each of there company for different reasons and she liked the fact Beth always seemed optimistic.When Daryl leaves to stay with his brother, Bryn is annoyed to say the least and gives him the cold shoulder when he returns, while pleased he was back, annoyed he had left to start with. She doesn’t understand how Carol is okay with it. Unlike most of the group, she doesn’t mind Meryl, though is also not overly fond of him, she simply takes his remarks and retorts with something sarcastic or simply rolls her eyes.When she learns Carol has been sent away, she is furious, making the remark that she had only been trying to help and that if she’d of thought of it herself, she’d of done exactly the same, even if it wasn’t true.When the camp comes under attack and they are forced to flee, Bryn ends up getting separated from the group and doesn't find them again much later on.
Hilltop find her near death and take her in and she stays with them under a false alias, Alessia.
When Rick etc come to camp, they don't really trust her and Rick threatens her because of it and makes her earn back his trust to go 'home'.

ㅤㅤㅤgame of thrones,ㅤ
There's whispers in the forest, whispers of a story that is as old as time but what if this story had more truth than we knew? In the darkness of the night, when the mortal ear is sleeping, there are whispers. Whispers of a boy... a human boy, left for dead. They say he was a prince, a bastard prince but a prince none the less, born out of wedlock. The mother died in childbirth, bled out on her own bed because the king refused her a doctor, fearing of what would become of her if anybody should ever discover his affair, his wife a vindictive woman.When the woman is gone, the king cries and the baby cries with him. He bundles up the child in his jacket, leaving the house and climbing onto the horse he arrived on, heading north. He leaves the baby in the deepest depth of the forest, to perish. The cruelty of the king is remembered that day and it is said that as he left, the forest mourned. What a tragic tale indeed, a king betraying his queen and a baby left for dead... but that is not where this tale ends. This is where it begins. As the baby cries, the forest answers it's call. A mother direwolf who had just lost it's young to the wild of the wilderness answers the call and instead of harming the child... she takes him in.But you see, this is what the tales got wrong. They say it is a legend, a fairytale if you will but it was a truth that had yet to be uncovered and this is not the only thing the tale got wrong as it is passed from ear to ear, the facts becoming distorted. The child was no prince... oh no. Yes, this child was royalty... but a princess. A child of Robert Baratheon himself and a woman whom he loved. A woman who was not his wife and was of no noble name. This man was not an evil man but a fearful one. One who was mourning and saw no other way out. Betrothed to another, he believes this to be the only answer.
The girl is taken in by the wolf and raised as though she were her own pup and she grows a very contented child.— 4 years later sees the next chapter of our tale.The girl, now a young child had learnt the art of hiding from anybody who came looking but this time was different. The wolf she had called mother had been killed in an altercation with another wolf and she clings to the long dead body. Later, this is how Eddard Stark and a young Jon Snow and Robb Stark would find her, shivering from the cold. Unable to leave the child to suffer, Eddard reaches for the girl, taking her into his arms despite her screaming and struggling, pressing her to him and the young girl cries in the man's arms to the point of exhaustion. He picks her up and places her on the horse in front of him as they had back to winterfell. Already having two other young children, one roughly the age of the girl, Sansa and another, roughly a year of age and his wife is pregnant once again, the Stark's already have a full house but when Eddard explains to Catelyn how he found her, the two agree to take her in, raising her as their own.However, that doesn't stop the rumors suffering of the girl found in the woods, the wild child who had been raise by wolves. These rumors were not helped by the young girl's, who they had named Bronwyn, insistent unruly behavior and limited speech to begin with. Having never been taught how to speak, the only way she had, had been in whimpers and cries which the wolf Bryn had considered her mother would respond to. As she grows, she becomes more of what she is shaped into being, though her heart longs for the wilderness of the forest she had been found in all those years ago and still mourns for the mother she had lost.While she wears the fine dresses and acts as a lady should most of the time, thankful for Eddard taking her in and wishing to please both him and his wife who had nurtured her and she had come to think of as parents, she much prefers the company of her brothers and the rough and tumble that comes with them. She has a skilled hand when it comes to archery. But this is not our story, the real story begins when King Robert Baratheon makes the long journey to Winterfell, his wife Cersei and other members of their household in toe. The rumors of the girls true heritage spreads quickly to their ears after Eddard presents his household and Robert feels the fear prick in his heart, especially when his wife's keen eyes watch the girl like a hawk, clearly noting the resemblance to the king as there was no mistaking it.She had heard of him taking a lover all those years ago, the whispers had reached her ears long before the woman's death, which Cersei had been plotting herself. A child out of wedlock, one of many that had been hidden from her, she was sure but this was different, the child right in front of her, taken in by... The Stark's? Now this begins our tale, the tale that would surely result in her death? A bitter queen, a bastard child claimed as legitimate by the Starks, a king who would have to pull every string possible to keep Bryn alive... and a girl. A naive young woman who longs to feel at home, to feel truly human. and an arrival at king's landing. Many questions lay before them, many stories that can be told but her fate? Her fate is rumored by many but truly told by none. Heritage will come to light and as the king's children are killed one by one... a claim to the throne becomes apparent. A fight for her life... but her future is a story that has yet not been written.. Her fate, well, I'll let you decide.
The story so far— Bronwyn Baratheon— Stark.- Bronwyn is born to a lady of no particular title but from a prominent family and King Robert Baratheon. She is born screaming and her mother dies shortly after as she keeps bleeding. The king refuses her a doctor, not wanting anyone to know of his bastard child. He requests his hand to cover up the woman's death and takes the babe into his arms, climbing onto his horse and heads for the north at night fall. He could have left the baby anywhere but he fears that someone find out the truth and doesn't have the heart to kill the child himself. Instead he leaves the child in the forest to die, figuring she wouldn't last long. A mother direwolf who has recently lost her own pups, hears the babe's cries and begins to care for her as though she were a pup. This goes on for the first few years of her life until the mother direwolf is killed. This is how Eddard Stark would later find the child, clinging to the direwolfs dead body. He immediately takes the child back home, having a child roughly her age and another on the way along with older children.- Catelyn immediately falls in love with the small baby and the couple decides to take her in and care for her as if she is their own, never letting her think differently even as she grows. Catelyn doesn't harbor hate towards Bryn as she does Jon as Bryn is not a product of what she believes to be her husbands affair. She's very rough and tumble and likes to run around with her brothers, fighting and learning how to use a sword and a bow. The wild has never completely left her but titles and proper address of those above her was drilled into her from a young age. She has her own direwolf along with the others but leaves the wolf behind with the command to guard Bran, deciding the city was no place for a wolf. During her time at King's Landing, Bryn would often scurry around the castle exploring, all the while wishing they could go home. However, one day she overhears a conversation between Eddard and Robert about her and she immediately barges in.- Robert tries to persuade the girl to leave and go back to winterfell but Bryn responds that he is nothing to her and she wouldn't leave her sister in the hands of his brute of a son. She refuses to leave even as Robert insists it's not safe for her and would later get into an argument with Eddard for hiding the truth from her. Her father's death both shocks and devastates her and she searches the grounds and surrounding area for Arya to no avail for days. Finally, she assumes her dead but prays otherwise and tries to concentrate on Sansa. She begins to stash gold, jewles and clothes outside of the castle incase a quick getaway is needed. When it's announced Robb is also dead, Bryn is heartbroken at the prospect of never seeing her brother again and sends a letter to the wall in hopes of a response from Jon. When she hears nothing from him, she begins to fear the worst. Joffery's death shocks the realm and Sansa's disappearance only adds to making matters worse. Bryn underestimates Cersei's reach and desire to punish anyone she can in response to the death of her son and finds herself arrested along with Tyrion, the Queen claiming they worked in partnership to murder her son.- There is a farce of a trial where it is said that Bryn worked with Tyrion for the sake of getting her sister out of Kings Landing and finding her own escape before she could be outed as what she is: the Kings Bastard child. They play the story well, going as far as bringing forward many witnesses. In the end Cersei does not get the result she wants and instead of being executed she is instead condemned to the whore house, showed leniency as she is a woman. Bryn is stripped and is forced into clothes the whores wear. She is raped on her first night to 'break her in' and to try to crush her spirit. She manages to escape the following evening, and ends up back at the castle, having gone through the passages she had discovered while exploring when they first came to Kings Landing. using riches she'd stashed from Roberts first warning, Bryn hires a boat and with no family and no hope, sets sail to dragon stone.- Upon arrival Bryn is greeted by multiple of the Queens guards and eventually the Queen. Without hesitation or being asked, Bryn bends the knee, supporting her claim to the throne and telling her everything she knows about Kings Landing and Cersei Lannister. The two slowly begin to become close and when Varys arrives he is bemused to find she hasn't told the Queen of the result of her time in Kings Landing, she threatens both him and later Tyrion to keep their mouths shut, stressing she has no interest in the throne and the Queen need not know. She also makes it clear to Varys he is lucky she doesn't put her sword through him instantly for his part in what happened to her. Neither knows about her sexual assult, Bryn telling nobody it happened and instead pushing the trauma away, dissociating from it. When Jon arrives, she is overjoyed he is alive and when she finds of her siblings safety too, allowing herself to cry for the first time. She doesn't tell Jon anything that happened either, claiming she escaped kings landing before Cersei could arrest her.- Things begin to become tense between the queen and her partially due to the fact Dany knew he was alive and said nothing despite knowing Bryn thought him dead Upon arriving North, Bryn reunites with Sansa and is devastated to hear what had happened to her, feeling as though she failed to keep her safe yet again and apologises profusely. Sansa is the only person Bryn confesses her own trauma to, knowing she'll understand. At some point the Queen learns of Bryn's true heritage and what happened in Kings Landing. Bryn fights in the war of Kings Landing even though she has little battle skills, claiming she wanted to do more than sit around and wait.- The rest is still tba.

ㅤㅤㅤa court of thorns and rosesㅤ
Always a bubbly child who loved scrapping with Rhysand, Cassian and Azriel, Bronwyn was very much the heart of their little family, the one who would cry when one of them got hurt and the one who would beam every time they returned home, the one who would beg them to play with her and teach her things. One of her favourite things was always to fly around the skies of Velaris with her brother at her side. However, after her mother's death and subsequent capture by Tamin, she becomes quiet and withdrawn but still holds a sharp tongue, not wanting to bow down to the men who had taken her. After they rip her win from her back, Bryn's remarks begin to dry and she becomes a much quieter more obeying captive but runs the first chance she gets.When her mother is killed, Bryn is captured by Tamlin's father and held captive. After his father is killed, Tamlin keeps her there out of spite and hatred for Rhys and his family. She is tortured physically and is unable to use her demati powers as she was only young when she was taken and never learned how to use them. Tamlin's guards rip one of her wings from her back, pinning her to the ground as they do it while she's conscious. Tamlin doesn't usually partake in the torture or the way she is treated, only occasionally visiting. On one of those visits, the mating bond clicks into place and she is filled with hope only to be rejected. Tamlin makes a point of being cruel. Why would he ever want her? She was nothing to him.She finally breaks free when Feyre loses control of her magic after being trapped inside and makes her way to the court of nightmares. She is naturally in a very poor state of health and is unable to winnow, it takes all her strength to be able to make it to night court. She breathes Rhy's name and she needs to see him before passing out. When she wakes Rhys is there but unbelieving and cold. He invades her mind in a burst of fury, beliving his sister to be dead and this to be a cruel trick. After seeing her story play out, he still doesn't truly believe her story but takes her with him back to Velaris. He drops her off and gives her clean clothes, takes her to an empty room and disappears again.
During the run up to the war, needing all the allies they can get, Bryn trains with Cassian physcially and mentally with Rhys. She is unable to access her demati powers, no matter how much she tries or trains. It's only when Rhys dies she finally manages to, losing herself to grief and rage, slipping inside others heads without meaning to. When she sees the image of Rhys alive she manages to snap out of it but passes out. Nobody speaks of it because nobody dares. Because Rhys is alive. She avoids him and Feyre like a plague, struggling to cope at this point but not quite as destructive as Nesta. She stays at the old house when they move to the River house despite Feyre designing a room for her. She attends the art classes Feyre starts up but never when Feyre is there.She trains with Cassian until she's physically exhausted. Sometimes she just vanishes for a while. Others she shops with Mor, both filling the air with meaningless chatter. Occasionally she visits Amren and while the two never speak, the older woman allows her to help with her puzzles, which they finish far too fast. It's months later when Rhys finally forces her to sit down and have a conversation with him and the two partake in a game of truths, finally having the much needed conversation.with the air cleared, the two begins to slowly heal together and for the first time things look brighter. Bryn creates a charity for those affected by domestic violence and those displaced by the war. She helps to find substitute shelter and even helps them get jobs and donates money. Doing this helps with her own wounds inflicted by her time at the spring court and so long spent away from her brother and family

ㅤㅤㅤThe 100ㅤ
Bronwyn was a unexpected surprise for her parents and while not an unwanted one, Roan worried about what kind of life she would have within the ice nation or even if his mother would allow the child to live since she was part outsider.The affair between Roan and Lyra had started after meeting in battle, the two seemingly immediately connecting. They had continued to see each other after and soon a romance had bloomed. Nia had disagreed with the relationship from the moment she found out, which wasn't long despite how hard Roan tried to keep it from her. She believed the heir to her throne should only have an azgeda queen sitting beside him and she would not tolerate an outsider taking the throne.Just after Lyra becomes pregnant, Nia arranges to have her killed, unknownst to her that she is with child. However her plan becomes flawed when Roan threatens to flee with Lyra should he suspect any harm to come to her and that should she die, he would not only disown his title as Prince of Azgeda but fuel a war against them with the other clan.Of-course his threat doesn't work for long, Nia delaying her plans until his suspicion fades before arranging her entire village to go up in flames during the night. Luckily however, at this point Lyra had already given birth to the child and the two had decided it was best she was given away to protect her from her grandmother and having a childhood like Roan had.Knowing if either of them were spotted with the child, the scouts Nia had following them would surely report back to his mother, Roan takes it upon himself to speak to Anya and Indra, requesting they take the child and raise her within Trikru. The two agree upon the condition of no contact, knowing the hell Nia would raise should she find out and not wanting to take any risks. Her parents arrange to have one of the more trusted villagers take the child to Anya, not wanting even a whisper of the child to get back to Nia.
-----------------
Bryn is given to a grounder family who has previously lost their own child and grows up to be a healthy and happy child who holds a strong desire to be a warrior. From a very young she marvels at the warriors strength, admiring them from a distance and often practising maneuvers with a large stick, claiming one day she would be just like them.As she gets older, she joins in with the other children's war games and often finds herself victorious, being the best of her village. When she meets Indra, Bryn is in awe at the woman's determination, strength and skill and Indra takes Bryn as her sekkon, proud of who the girl had grown to be and the promise she showed. She teaches Bryn all the things she lacked from patience to discipline. The girl would be very helpful should Roan decide to betray Trikru.
Bronwyn is a very loyal, determined warrior and wishes to prove to Indra that while she may not be a commander in training like Lexa, she was however, just as much of a skilled warrior.Despite her envy towards Lexa, she gets on with the girl well and enjoys testing her skills by sparring with her. She is very respectful of the position she holds when she becomes commander and would be one of the first to lay day her life for her or jump to her defense if need be, taking her loyalties very seriously.The first time Bryn comes into contact with the sky people is just outside of camp Jaha when Clarke comes to plea her case to Lexa. While Indra is clearly distrustful of Skaikru, going as far as to wanting to end Clarke's life, Bryn is much more open in her opinions, admiring the loyalty Clarke shows to her people and friends despite the fact that Finn committed an extreme act. At the same time, she stands with her people, deeply angry and grieving the massacred grounders deaths, not understanding how Clarke can make excuses for him.She's a lot more trustful of them than Indra when the alliance between their people is made, even after the poisoning incident, especially since it had turned out it was one of their own trying to plant seeds of doubt. She'd learnt a long time ago that looks could be deceiving.
However one thing she can not understand is Lincoln's lack of respect or loyalty to his own people. Knowing him for almost as long as she had been Indra's second, Lincoln had come to be a brother figure of sorts to her but the fact he chooses 'one of the enemy' over them, drives a rift between them, one Bryn is not very willing to forgive. This leads her to dislike Octavia greatly, the hatred only growing as she starts to act like one of them ; or try. It infuriates her that instead of Indra, she steps in to spar with her a few times just for the satisfaction of knocking her on her ass.If it wasn't for Lexa's command of not killing them, she was sure the girl would have met an untimely death. She very nearly decides the consequences of breaking that rule would be worth it when Indra takes the girl as her second, fury washing over her and perhaps she would have killed the girl without a second thought if it hadn't been for Indra. This causes a fight between her and her mentor and Bryn storms in order to calm herself ; however, ends up being taken by reapers.She tries to fight them off with no avail, them both being greatly stronger than her and also outnumbering her. Once dragged back to the mountain, she goes through decontamination where they are blasted with boiling water and doused with something that "burns even worse.". After she was given shots and pills, visually inspected and locked into a cage for later use, knowing it was only a matter of time until she was called upon and drained of blood for the use of the people inside the mountain. A truly brutal process, all in the name of surviving. She was terrified but after being placed in a cage next to Echo, it comes to light they take the strongest first so she does her best to make herself as small as possible in hopes of the united forces of the two clans reaching them before she would be harvested.Eventually, they are freed and she discovers Lexa had made a deal to free them all. While feeling sorry for the Skaikru believing nobody should suffer that fate, she is relieved to be free and looking forward to the prospect of seeing her mentor and friend after her ordeal but instead, she finds herself being knocked out by Echo, who had come to the conclusion this was the girl Nia was obsessed with, the resemblance being hard to miss. The older grounder takes her to Nia in the hopes of getting on her good side.At first, Bryn is terrified and ready to attack ; up until everything is explained to her. Then the devastation kicks in. Nia convinces Bryn that she nothing more than a pawn in a game. Instead of telling her the truth, Nia claims that Bryn was held as a way to control them, to keep Nia doing any harm to trikru members and should she or any of ice nation do so, she probably would have been killed.She spends the following weeks teaching Bryn all about what it means to rule and be a princess or Azgeda. She immediately buts heads with Ontari however and the two are constantly at each others throats, making snarky remarks at one another or sometimes even physically fighting. The two able to press each others buttons.When Nia is arrested and brought before Lexa and the thirteen clans, Bryn follows behind, furious with Lexa for doing such a thing when she must know the truth about who Bryn is. Furious at the fact none of them had searched for her after mount weather and possibly hadn't before either. She doesn't however, approve of the vote of no confidence, although she acts like she does, deeply angered and hurt and not willing to admit this is one verdict she did not stand with her grandmother for. When confronted about her loyalties, her response is that her loyalty is with her blood.Later when Clarke tries to poison Nia, the girl also confronts her, telling her she didn't really want to let Lexa die and she should stop her grandmother before the damage is done but Bryn ignores her, including Ontari's remarks once the girl has left. She refuses to acknowledge Roan when he tries to speak with her, believing he abandoned her for his own self gain. When Nia is killed by Lexa, Bryn is distraught and restrained by Roan as she lashes out, attempting to attack Lexa, genuinely believing her grandmother is innocent.He drags her away from the scene and once she's calm, explains everything as to why he gave her up and the truth about her grandmother. After the talk, Bryn seeks out Lexa and after Indra, confronting them about her heritage and why they kept it from her. A large part of her feels betrayed and though it's denied, she wonders if she really was just a pawn after all. She eventually decides on going back to Azgeda with her father, despite making amends with them both, claiming she thinks she needs to find out who she really is and that perhaps she had a duty to her people, just as Lexa did hers. Besides, neither of them would want Ontari taking the throne should anything happen to Roan. She does however ask Lexa is she would be welcome should she decide that she is not Azgeda but trikru after all.

ㅤhope mikaelsonㅤ, ㅤAs a baby, Hope used to scream bloody murder every time that Bryn held her and she would jest to her siblings that the child clearly held her fathers distaste for her but none the less Bryn has always doted on her and done her best to be there for her.

ㅤverses,
ㅤbelladonna (tvd)ㅤ ㅤcanon and au verse. this verse is heavily based on s4 onwards of the originals and explores the consequences of the hollow being inside the mikaelson siblings and bryn in-particular.
Bryn seperates from her family once again after being a part of the ritual to take the Hollow inside of herself, along with her siblings. The Hollow's dark magic rattles around inside her head, connecting with her own, long since dormant, bound magic. Ending up sleeping with old friend, an immortal witch from the time of tristan, aurora and lucien, Gabriel Solis, the magic manifests itself in such a way that the two coming together creates a union, giving life where there should be none considering Bryn's physical state, a vampire body.Discovering she is pregnant is shock enough, more so when dark veins begin to develop the more pregnancy grows, making it clear this was a pregnancy of dark origin, the hollow's own way of creating a vessel strong enough for her to live again. (this does not effect Hope taking the hollow inside her again to reunite her family etc, all of this still happens. This verse is very much a wip but one I would greatly like to explore more.)
ㅤcome alive (tvd). ㅤau verse. this verse takes place in s2 of the originals
After Kol’s demise, Bryn pleads with Freya to transfer her into a different body, a /witch/ body in an attempt to help Rebekah and Davina to bring him back, distraught she’s lost him once again. FC for this verse is Freema Agyeman.
ㅤshe's breathing (tvd). ㅤau verse. can be set in either s3 of the vampire diaries or during s1-2 of the originals.
In a nutshell, this verse is Bryn being reverted back to her human form, or in this case, witch. This can go either one of two ways dependant on preference. In Mystic Falls, set during her return in S3, Bryn gets in the way of the travellers spell, or in New Orleans, while trying to stop the witches getting to hope (born or unborn) or hayley.Bryn gets in the way of the travellers or the witches spell and is accidentally turned back to a human. However, unknown to all parties, Bryn's own mother was a powerful Satanist witch and in undoing her humanity, they also undid the binding spell esther put on her as a child, leaving her with explosive powers she has no idea how to control.
ㅤHey brother (tvd). ㅤcanon verse. set in new Orleans from s1 of the originals onwards.
When elijah goes missing, Bryn gets a worrying phone call from her sister and immediately races to new orleans, much to niklaus chagrin. he is furious and tries to throw her out but bryn is having none of it and begins her own man hunt for her brother. this verse will go on to cover the events of the series.
ㅤflower made from iron (tvd). ㅤau verse beginning from s3 ep14 onwards.
hearing wind of her siblings back in town, bryn scopes out mystic falls. Not wanting to be seen, she sneaks around, avoiding old faces. hearing wind of a mikaelson ball, bryn times her entrance perfectly to crash it, a grand mikaelson entrance.
ㅤQUEEN IN THE NORTH (ASOIAF). ㅤau verse.
& - When her father and siblings begin the long journey to King's Landing, Bryn is made to stay behind to 'keep her mother company', although the reality is that it was to protect her from her real identity ever coming into question.& - Bryn finds herself lonely in the absence of her sisters and Jon travelling to the wall. Miserable she finds herself seeking out her mother, learning everything it means to be the lady of winterfell. She also finds herself counseling with Robb on matters within the North and later the events that would unfold. At first he's hesitant but Bryn insists, pestering him until he caves. She listens intently to the happenings and his options, learning the balancing act and taking it in when her suggestions are shot down with an explanation and she soon learns the careful manner in which it requires.& - When Robb and Cantelyn leave, Bryn protests when they make her stay behind. She wants to go with them, and she argues, this is her family too, but the explanation she gets is 'there should always be a Stark in winterfell'. Once again when she protests in favour of her younger siblings, she's shot down, her mother claiming they are too young and vulnerable so it was her duty to protect winterfell and her siblings. Reluctantly she abides.& - Little does Bryn know that when Robb becomes King in the North after her father's death, she is chosen to be his successor should anything happen to him. This is decided over many late nights, him and his mother going back and forth between all their siblings. It couldn't be Sansa. Married to a Lannister it would get their claws into their home. Jon was a bastard and as such could never take the title. It's then Robb suggests Bryn, his mother immediately shooting it down with the easy response that she's not truly a Stark and he points out that 'Blood isn't everything, she is a Stark in every way that counts. You and father raised her as such.' Cantelyn, while loving Bryn, feels this is an injustice to her actual children, suggests Arya but Robb points out she's vanished into thin air and could be dead. Their other siblings are shot down for being too young and so they concede, agreeing in Bryn at last. But she wouldn't know this until his death. Until she's ultimately told it's down to her now.& - When Theon takes winterfell, she distracts him long enough that her younger siblings can escape and remains their prisoner until Winterfell is taken back by Jon.
