The Royal Family of Zolandia

My dear friends,

I was cleaning up the doll room last night, feeling free to spend a week doing that instead of the many projects piling up.  Then I realized that my work is not done here. I can't leave you all without some royal closure. So off we go!


Victoire:  I'm not accustomed to waiting.
Emmanuelle: Well we certainly didn't want to give him advanced notice.  


Tallulah and Victor stroll home from dinner.

Victor: Someone needs to rid the sidewalks of the skateboards. Someone is going to break their neck.
Tallulah: You're becoming quite the curmudgeon in your old age, sir.


Victor: Oh dear.
Tallulah: It seems they've found you at last.



Tallulah:  Your Benevolent Highnesses
Victoire: Ah, at least someone has some manners around here.


Victoire: Unlike you, Brother.
Victor: My darling sisters. How I've missed you.
Emmanuelle: We've been so worried Victor.

Victoire: Thank you for the tea, Ms. Wilde. But eh....


Victoire clears her throat and gestures.


Victor: She is not going to pour for you Victoire, this isn't Zolandia.


Ahem.



Victoire: There, that's better. When will we meet the heir?


Victor: I will have her come join us. She doesn't live far.


Victor: Your Benevolent Highness, Princess Victoire, may I present Danielle Fear.
Victoire: Something must be done about that name. She will take the family name, will she not?  Yes, 'de Trepangier' will suit you well.


Victoire: Come, child, sit beside your auntie. No need for those formalities. It's just us.


Victoire: Well! Let us look at at you.


Victoire: I didn't expect this. You are rather like me, are you not? I was expecting you to look like her. You will do nicely. Look at that Zolandian bone structure.


Emmanuelle: Look at this glossy Chinese hair.
Dani: Japanese actually.
Emmanuelle: Yes, of course.


Victoire: Now tell me about Hanna Gudmundsdottir.


Dani: She's ruined my life. Many times over.


Dani: She has taken everything from me.


Emmanuelle: Don't be silly my dear, you will be Queen of Zolandia one day. You have a rather large and powerful family. She can do nothing to harm you again.


Victoire: We take the protection of the family name very seriously. At this moment our team is busy at work investigating your past and erasing any...unpleasantness. But Ms. Gudmundsdottir will not give up, I imagine. We must prepare for her.


Victor: I knew you'd like her!
Victoire: I take the family and the fate of Zolandia very seriously, unlike yourself. It's a wonder that you are my twin when we are as different as can be!  Danielle will return with us at once.


On the way out, Victoire whispers, "Did you tell her? About Zolandia?"
"Don't be ridiculous. Superstitious townsfolk, that's all that is."

"Don't be a fool Brother. You've seen enough in your day. How can you abandon her?"

"I will guide her, Victoire. As will you. I have vowed a year in her service. But no more. You will leave me in peace."
"Ah and what of Zolandia? What peace will we have?"


I'll miss you guys!!!

Grandville Summer Festival!

Hello doll friends, First up, I gotta show you this. My 4 year old was playing with my Barbie cast-offs and set up this little scene. (That yellow thing on the table is a TV shaped eraser.) Dig the lamp she made with a wedding cake and the pole from maybe a Barbie dress form? Adorbs. Anyway, this weather (raining pretty much daily for the last month or so) has wrecked my spray painting plans. Much of the royal storyline rests on this painting project. So for now I decided to continue the other stories I have going. Enjoy: "Ho-ly crap, what on earth are you wearing?" "Aw, Sook, I feel bad enough."   "Seriously. You are wearing khakis. You look cray cray. You're like somebody's mom right now. Please explain this situation." "My boss said my outfit was too sexy so I had to borrow something from Le Skater Dork over there at the cafe. Jeez, now I owe her one. Oh crap Channel 1 News is here."   "Thanks John. Lavita

Zee Gypsies!

I'm home today, the kids are at school (half day), so I decided to take some pictures with my little window of time. I rarely show the gypsies and one of you guys requested it, so here they are! "Hello, I am Carmen Kirpachi. Welcome to our home." "This is my husband Milosh." "Hallo."  "This is my brother, Franco. While his gaje girlfriend Josephine is in Paris, he's spending a lot more time with us." "Excuse me, I have to put some more wood in the stove so I can get dinner started." "My goat stew is Milosh's favorite but we need to get the pot hot first." "This is my living area, also known as Franco's bedroom. But we don't mind. The Romany love having family around." "Milosh says I drive like a fugitive so he doesn't let me drive very often." "But sometimes I put a glamour on him and he forgets how much he hates my driving." "

Introducing Nymeria and the Alurium Vaccarra

Ever have a couple of days off Facebook and though you wonder what happened to your friends over the long weekend, you can help feeling a little peaceful? That's how I feel in my week of staying off the blogs and forums and various sites. But I missed a lot! So many cool posts! It's going to take a while to dig myself out. One must wonder, did my creative spurt have something to do with not being all over the web looking at what everyone else is doing? Anyway let's get to it. So on my birthday, my three Stardolls arrived! Aside from the outfit, that Paris one was not cute. I dunno, she's too boring looking. But Iris was THRILLED that she got a new, dressed doll. Well for a few minutes anyway. Did you know that they can't bend their legs? Like they can't sit down? Terrible. Anyway, the other two were great! Inspiring. Meet Valentina. A Columbiana who restores classic cars. She was very happy with a Liv body. She might be Nadia's next girlfriend, w
