That... Might be hard. Marie's a cowardly, self-loathing, self-deprecating nut case (as is the norm of Wonderland), so that pretty much gets in the way of everything
sweatdrop . She also pretends to be dim-witted in front of her cousin and other royals, so... Yeah... Don't know how she's going to let him in on her little secret of being an inventor and an intellectual unless they meet outside of court. In which case, she'd probably still wouldn't look him in the eye much less speak up for being oh-so beautiful and knightly...

But I'd love for her to develop a little crush on the White Knight, even if it is one-sided. It'd be adorable.
o3o Family issues, you say...? Oh my, like what?
XD You asked for it! I based his life mainly on Galahad from the King Arthur legend. Also the wikipedia entry for his mom is a bit wrong as she had never gotten to marry him.
His father was another white knight called Lancelot du loc. Lancelot was very much a romantic and very much in the spirit art of courtly love. (AKA Love from afar) Lance was love with the White queen. Of course, the white queen doesn't return back his feelings due to being in love with her own rightful husband but his father had deluded himself due to the queen giving him secret "signals" of their "relationship".
His mother was Elaine of Corbenic, a beautiful blond noble but was delusional to think that she was a princess due to her crazy and very persuasive father. Her father somehow have gotten a prophesy that she needed to have a child with Lancelot, to create the perfect knight called Galahad who will one day obtain a holy relic (possible the prophesy was fake) Elaine of course didn't mind at all, as Lancelot was very good-looking. So she and her father hatched a plan......
She disguised herself as the white queen and seduced him. The next morning, Lancelot finds out that he did not sleep with the white queen but rather someone else. He would have killed her if it weren't for the fact that she immediately talked about the prophesy about the child. (lol. Totally make sense right?) So he left feeling ashamed at himself for "betraying" his one true love.
Thus, Galahad was born. His early childhood, he was raised by his mother and grandfather. So he was raised with the expectation that he must be a perfect knight. His mother was a very good mother but later commit suicide when he was ten, thus he was given to Lancelot to raise as his own..
Even though Galahad was a very well behaved son, Lancelot keeps seeing him as the reminder of the day that Lance "violated" his vows to remain pure for the queen. So he was not the best of fathers and every that Gale ever have done right, Lancelot would take credit for that. So Gale was the best at sword fighting? “Obviously have gotten that from Lance. “Best at table manners? “Got that from his father, he did!” Lancelot also would bad mouth Gale's mom often. (Understandable but in front of your son? Really?)
Galahad is the spitting image of his father and hated his father so much that he actively plotted for his father's death. He didn't get to put his plans in motion because his father has died from another person's plot. Free from his father, He now tries to be a perfect knight in his mother's name. (So he took his mother name). So if anyone ever compares him to Lancelot....this is why he has that berserk button,
yep...family issues. XD

I don't think I've met a person yet that's written too much for their profile. ^__~
What I put down is always the minimum, never the maximum. I can tell your writing is probably going to expand a TON within this roleplay, and for that I am very excited; it's always a fun experience to learn and grow!!
XD Thank you so much! I'm not much of a writer but I would love to improve it!
