"An Introduction for myself? I'm Bellatrix Solindo."Although Lyn's get-togethers were usually were held at her mother's home, there were times when Bellatrix would volunteer to watch over the girl and her friend, allowing for Amelia to spend some much needed time with other adults. Today was one of the times, which meant that the half elf was lying across her couch, snug in a pair of jeans and a flower-print shirt. While it appeared that she was focused on a magazine, the majority of her attention was alert for the pair of pre-teens currently in her quarters; Lyndis and Yvette were practically always well behaved, but as their current caretaker, she felt no need to take chances. Still, she would allow them to have some time, as any requests needed would be made to her, she was sure. After all, neither girl was particulary quiet. So for now, she relaxed as the afternoon drifted by.
Pleased for the weekend's arrival, Lyndis had arranged for some time with Yvette, though her mother had insisted that she go out. Despite her suspicions that it was for more work, she went along with the excuse that her mother was seeing a few friends, and instead moved the location to her adoptive aunt's home in Reed's. Currently, she was sprawled across the living room floor, the television tuned to some talent show as she chatted with Yvette. Of course, she was aware that the girl had something on her mind, but until she was given further clues she would remain relaxed.

"I'm going to ask." Yvette finally said as commercials started. They had talked about it several times and the conversation always turned back to Bella being the best choice for a response. The pre-teen got up and walked over to the half elf woman and rolled her eyes it was clear that she wasn't reading the magazine, but Yvette wasn't going to be rude about it. "I have a question." She announced to her temporary caretaker.

"An Introduction for myself? I'm Bellatrix Solindo." Looking up as the girls stood, she didn't question Lyndis, sure that the girl was heading to the kitchen. What captured her attention was Yvette, and she silently rose one brow as she was spoken to. Setting aside her magazine, she sat up as she responded, "Alright, what's on your mind?" She was curious, as she wasn't overly familiar with the girl, though they were related and technically, Yvette held a higher status than herself. Still, no matter her thoughts of her estranged family, she would never hold a dislike for the girl, who was a good friend for her neice.
Hearing her friend, she nodded, then flashed he a reassuring smile as she stood from her position. She would go muddle about in the kitchen for a bit, just within earshot but out of sight, so hopefully out of their minds. Besides, a snack would be good now, and she knew her way around Bella's items and ingrediants.

"Lyn thought that maybe you can help me with a problem." Yvette cleared up why Bella over her own parents. "My parents are stupid. Mom can't speak her mind when she's around dad and dad doesn't see what's right in front of his eyes." She gave a board description about what was bothering her. "Don't tell my mom I know this, but Mom is still deeply in love with dad and she's been trying to tell him that, but he hasn't been listening so my mom stays quiet about it since he got remarried. I want to tell my dad how much he still hurt mom by getting into those petty little fights."

"An Introduction for myself? I'm Bellatrix Solindo." Giving a small nod when she explained that Lyndis had suggested the idea of speaking with Bellatrix, she allowed the girl to continue without interruption. Her words created an odd picture, as she had never expected the human mother to be short on words, nor for Yvette's father to be blind to a woman's affection. Of course, love was a tricky thing, and one could argue that it altered a person's usual reactions. Still, she was near full of empathy for either adult, yet she felt the need to at least help her young cousin. "The king-", she paused before continuing, knowing that formalities would be a waste of time at the moment. -your father has a duty, which I'm sure you've been told. However, I don't believe you see it from his side very well. He has to do what is right for the people of his kingdom, so I suspect that he is only pretending not to know of your mother's love." After all, Seth had been all too aware of his masculinity when he was young, a fact she had been told much about, and from her own experience in dealing with him, she wasn't sure that that went away. Her only logical explanation would be that the king was trying to spare Tabatha's heart and time. After adding such an idea, she continued with, "Perhaps he wished for your mother to find a more suitable man." It was odd for her to help Seth, yet she felt obligated too, if only so that the girl would rest better at night.

Bella must have forgotten on thing about Yvette, she went to a school that most of the children would end up at Reed's. That meant that Yvette was required to study politics and social sciences the most. "I understand that he wants to be a good king, but he's going about it the wrong way." The girl pointed out. "A good leader is not afraid to show his faults and strides to show the people that he is working on making them better. It kind of seems like he's running away from them instead. One day it's going to crack and the people will loose favor in him." Her father's acts really pissed the pre-teen off. He was the worst. "I'm going to become a real leader!" She declared. Just talking with Bella her face became more and more angered. "I'll be such a good leader that if they have a boy that the people will still want me, just because I hate him." The girl said. She was thinking of ways to do that. She could appear without an escort and nothing more than her friends around her. It would look super good if other princess and children of famous people were around her. If they said they wanted to see her as queen that would be better. She could start with sympathies or empathy for the people and as she got older she would use politics and beliefs as her weapon. "You can't tell my dad because if my mom found out then she would go crazy and put a spell on you." She told Bella. There was some merit to the girls woulds. Tabby has cursed her ex at least once and tried to do it on several times before and after. "Lyn are you in? I need an army of promoters and I think nothing is better than Princess Lydnis. I think Prince Elendil, Princess Amira, and Master Donny will also be a good choice. I mean if we could talk to their family who is adults and make them fall in love with me that will help."

"An Introduction for myself? I'm Bellatrix Solindo."Doing her best to remain quiet as the girl continued, she had to keep from sighing several times. That kind of talk was ridiculous, and if heard would only cause trouble the entire family, which unfortunately included Bellatrix herself. "Yvette, sit down and listen to me." Keeping her face and tone calm, she moved to make room for the girl on the sofa, and refused to speak again until she was seated. "You have far too much to learn about politics, and no matter how you see your father, you cannot plan a rebellion." She frowned, remembering her own experience with the royal family, and found that despite her hatred, she would never wish for Seth's own daughter to take the throne without first becoming heir. When Lyndis came around the corner, she was shushed and sent back into the kitchen with a glare. There was no way that Bella would allow her neice to involve her own title without first thinking things through. "It will not be worth it. The Solindo's are a cursed family, you will likely not need to worry about a son being born for many, many more years. So I advise you to simply live without worry for ruling."

Yvette heard of this so called family curse several times, but she never bothered to ask about it. There was no need to in her mind. "I'm not causing a rebellion, I'm causing the people to put pressure on Dad to make me #1. In all rights I shouldn't even think of the throne since I'm the illegitimate heir. My cousin's are before me in ranking. I will get the people to love me." She commented. She was going to make it happen. "Besides everyone only thinks the family is cursed. I have proof that they may not be and that is me. Yes I was born a girl too, but is a curse neutralized if someone who is lucky has a child with someone who's cursed." If what Yvette was thinking was correct then her being a son would have been 50/50. She was sure an adult would know some researcher who would know the answer of the question. "You could say Lyn's family is cursed too. Queens rule in fairy land, but her mother had sons until she went with another man." She was well aware of her friends history. Even then Her dad has more girls then boys and her aunt has equal amount of both." Yvette was only going to find out how to really break the curse once she became queen. She was sure this curse was nothing but a thought anyways.

"An Introduction for myself? I'm Bellatrix Solindo."Seemingly unable to push aside the girl's thoughts, she allowed Lyndis to enter the room and sit on the recliner across from where Bella sat. Yvette wasn't going to let the matter drop, so she figured that they all may as well speak together. No matter the result, she would do her best not to speak with the girl's parents about the issue, though she did hope to have her advice heeded to. "Magic has a terrible way of fooling genetics." she pointed out, her tone edging towards seriousness as she spoke. After all, these were serious matters, and the last thing she wanted was for a rebellion to form under the name of Yvette; at least not while there was such danger involved with her statements. "Our curse is...complex." Not only were sons a rare addition, but each generation seemed to face a tragedy. Choosing not to go into depth, she thought more of Yvette's want to be heir. Being the heir was a task that held a large responsibility, and meant that one would someday rule over the land and its people. It was daunting and scary enough to have chased away her own father, so she was concerned as to how it would affect this young girl. "Why do you want to rule? What wong has your father committed against the people?" The only wrong she could think of was the lie given to protect his baby girl at Reed's; his other wrong-doings were far more personal, so she would hardly bring those into account.

"I want to rule because I don't want what Dad wants for me and I don't want mom wants for me. I want to become leader because dad has wrong mom and me. Isn't he lying to us doing what he's doing." The girl commented. Her stubbornness came from both her parents. Because it would only be there if both of them combined their stubbornness. "I'll make the people fall in love with me and tell them I want to be queen, but I can't and that they should send letters to dad to help him change his mind." The girl huffed. "Lyn you're my manager, Donny will be my bodyguard, and well get some of the others involved with my campaign."

"An Introduction for myself? I'm Bellatrix Solindo." Once Yvette was finished, she shook her head lightly, finding that the girl's want to rule was only justified by her spite for her parents. That needed to be discouraged, or else her later years may well suffer. "You can have the people fall in love with you, but you do not love them in return as your father does." She sighed, a large part of her hating that she was prepared to protect Seth as a king, though she let her own personal feelings fall away as she contined. Seth was doing his best as a ruler, so she tried not hold the past against him as she did to her cousin Aurora. "Would you, for your people, marry someone you didn't yet love? Would you work night and day to make them hapoy, even while a member of your family lay dying? Would you let go of your own feelings and put their needs first, even if it meant losing time with your infant child?" Catching the girl's eye, she continued, her tone soft as she tried to make her point clear. "No, I don't believe so. Your wish to rule is completely based in your own wants."
Listening as the two spoke, Lyndis remained quiet as she gave an outward appearence of focusing on her sandwich. Only when Yvette said her name did she look up, slightly startled to be given the title of manager. She nodded, though Bella was speaking before she could respond. Waiting for her to finish, she opened her mouth to state her own opinion, hoping that it would be welcome. "Vetty, why not just ask your father to teach you? Then he'll surely see you as the proper heir."

Yvette didn't think about love, but that wasn't going to stop her. She'd find a way to get around. "I wouldn't marry if I couldn't marry for love." She answered. That was the same think as saying that one of her siblings would rule after her. "I would tell the people that If I can't marry whom I want then I'd marry no one and be focused on them and my country." Yvette answered. It wasn't like she really had anyone she liked. "I'll come the Queen Elizabeth the first for my people." She added giving herself to the image of a virgin queen. "I'd only want dad to teach me once I am recognized by the people as the heir. I only really hate one siren anyways. It's not that I don't like my cousin, she's at least kind of cool."

"An Introduction for myself? I'm Bellatrix Solindo." While it seemed as if Yvette was willing to go without love, she was still skeptical. Love was odd, though she was sure that the experience of such a feeling was always worth it. Still, she remained quiet as the girl continued, raising a brow at the mention of wanting to gain the people's support before becoming heir. Shaking her head, she told her, "I believe you should speak with your father. What if he agrees with your thoughts?" There was no need for secrecy, in her opinion, and she didn't want the family to become divided from this girl. However, her last statement drew a raised brow, and the half elf had to keep from making a snappish comment. Their cousin could be seen as cool to some, but there was a side of her that was as ugly as she was beautiful; yet it had only ever been directed to Bella. "Aurora is...well, I'm sure she could help you."

"No way. He can't know about this." The girl commented. She couldn't let her father know what she was up to he would just tell her that she was foolish and that he would just give her it or something. She wanted to people to get it to her. "I can't tell Aurora. I can't tell any adults because they'll act like I'm some stupid kid, but I may drop a hint of it, just to see her reaction. If it's good then I'll give her a little more. Till then though I wont." Yvette commented making her plans.
