[align=center]![]() N A T A L I E J A N E C A R T E R ![]() * a heart of my own, burn it down low. the light in your verse and the shadow between, the way that I was when I used to roam. . HEY THERE. THE NAME IS KAIT, AND I AM TWENTY-ONE. I'VE BEEN ROLEPLAYING FOR ABOUT NINE YEARS AND MY OTHER CHARACTERS WOULD BE NON-EXISTENT. I FOUND FKAC AT RPG-D. OH, BY THE WAY, I READ THE RULES. WANT PROOF? THE CODE WORD IS ALTERNATE UNIVERSE WANT TO REACH ME? HERE'S MY IM: NOW THAT WOULD BE TELLING! [/align]My beloved mother and father believed in their hearts that this life would be for me a better life. One that which even without complete freedom in the comings and goings could bring about a better quality of living than they could ever give. But, with all verity I can muster to my mind I must express that I feel I am destined to grow old without age; to put all others before myself before I have even chanced to live, love, and dream of better things. I cannot say that I am miserable on all accounts, but I digress; something is missing. I was born nineteen years ago in 1492 during a cold November, the second child to Sir Harold Carter and his wife Lady Rosanna of Yorkshire. My brother John served as a sort of exemplar in my early years and thus I admired him greatly, until the terror of tuberculosis took his young life. Many came from far and wide to extend their sympathies, but no kind words could dull the anguish. My mother seemed to, without his life, lose much interest in her own. What it is like to watch one's own child pass into oblivion is a thing I shall not likely experience or desire to. Many women are married younger than I, and time passes swiftly; this united with my unconventional visage will further prevent it. I am not, and have never been, a distinguished candidate for marriage. But, I have always sworn that I would marry for love, regardless of rank. I have often found that those not born into the peerage have a better sense of worth and appreciation of what it means to be truly happy. If I should marry at all, it will be for love. I would rather grow old without it than die in certain melancholy, if I should marry at all. If I should marry at all. If you have not deduced the evident, I am a lady-in-waiting. I am the lady-in-waiting to the ever-snarky Catherine Willoughby, one whom after all this time I might consider my closest friend. I apply this endearment loosely to the woman who is one year my junior, as she is still one I must serve. On rare occasion I find that I am envious of her; a beautiful, intelligent woman who has found the coveted road paved for the rest of her life, and has a grasp on what to do should something change. This is how I perceive her now, but it is not how it has always been. Catherine is forever changing now, and I am stationary. Back in the early days, I used to play with the common children when I could get away. Come to think of it, I do believe my father let me escape. I also believe this is why I share such a strong connection with them and desire nothing but the best. My best friend was a young boy some very few years my senior but I have not seen of heard of him since my leaving home. It is to be expected, but at my young age I mourned his absence as though he had passed on. He had been perhaps a semblance of my brother and thus I had experienced two great losses before the age of sixteen. With his male offspring deceased, it left my father, Sir Harold, with one choice. I became the lady-in-waiting to Catherine Willoughby --now Dudley-- as I have said before. We had taken lessons together throughout our years and it was a way to make another connection from the Carter family to another. It was the first time in my life that my father ordered me to hold my tongue and know my place. How is it said? C'est la vie. I pray that in time I will learn acceptance; to live, love, and dream of better things. I yearn for a road; one that leads to a worthwhile conclusion so that when I am met with the face of God above, I shall kiss his feet; not spit on them. |
