as I've bothered long-time followers over the years with this. my fc is just this guy, this random because no one in the media fits grrms romanticised descriptions of him. it just be that way. but hey, at least I've finally managed to give him fully brown hair like loras and dat tanned skin. couldn't make his eyes golden like loras' are, but small wins.

MODERN / STALKING : applies to ALL modern verses. UNDERCUT because it's quite long.

Bertrand Arnaud forced his way into Loras' life after he won the triple gold during his first Olympic games in 2016, Loras was 16 at the time. It seemed harmless enough at first. Bertrand turned up at sporting and non-sporting events, always left shining comments on social media posts, and was downright atrocious to trolls etc, which Loras thought was pretty cool, so did not suspect there would ever be ill intent. I wouldn't say he was naive---but maybe a bit. To Loras, Bertrand just appeared as an adoring fan. He didn't even question when Bertrand would suddenly appear in places where Loras happened to be that had nothing to do with his budding athletic career, and everything to do with his private life.

One day, when Loras was out helping his step-grandma, Celine, with errands, Bertrand approached him while she was paying for some groceries. Celine interrupted a seemingly innocent conversation and didn't think twice about asking why a middle-aged man was having a conversation with her then 17-year-old grandson. Cool kid Loras was kind of embarrassed and tried to explain that Bertrand was just a fan, but that did not deter Celine from shooing Bertrand away, and then heavily questioning Loras about him. Shocked by the nonchalant admission of how often this man placed himself in Loras' path, Celine immediately took him home, telling Leyton everything, who was also shocked and lowkey blamed himself for sheltering Loras for so long that the kid couldn't recognise a potential threat like that.

After Loras' grandparents explained that what Bertrand was doing wasn't normal, not even for a fan. Loras wised up and ceased all contact with Betrand; blocking him on all social media platforms, and ignoring him at events. Unfortunately, it was harder to ignore him out in the world, and the guy always seemed to know where he was, which quickly became alarming, and Loras found himself being accompanied almost everywhere by family for the next 2 years of his life. This put so much strain on friendships and potential teen years boyfriends, and Loras became very isolated from people who weren't his immediate family.

Of course, Bertrand was reported to the police. But at first, the complaints went unheeded, despite Bertrand's tactics escalating to phone calls from private numbers (they would later find out that Bertrand worked for a phone company, and was an accomplished hacker outside of that), waiting outside the Hightowers home in central Paris. He seemed to be there at every waking moment, and he didn't attempt to interact with Loras if he was accompanied, which was more often than not. It was like he just wanted to be there as a part of Loras' life, like a statue, always watching. And when Betrand did manage to approach Loras alone, there wasn't necessarily any sexual connotation. Yes, Bertrand did acknowledge how attractive Loras was. But he seemed more obsessed with the idea of Loras than gaining anything perverse from him. Still, he had no problem telling Loras that the guys he was seeing at the time were no good for him, that he could do better, and that no one would ever be good enough or understand him as Bertrand did. Which forced Loras to consider how much Bertrand really did know about him.

Once the fam got the police to take things more seriously via multiple evidences of Bertrand outside of the home and at places where Loras was, another shitstorm erupted. The police weren't very helpful basically and even went as far as to accuse the situation of being a lover's tiff and that Loras had obviously led Bertrand on in some way. If anything before that wasn't the tipping point, then that was it for Loras, who got into a very heated argument with an officer that almost led to his arrest. It was Marg's idea to appeal to the press and by proxy, the French public, who adored Loras for his continued sporting triumphs. If the entire country were suddenly against the policing institution for not protecting one of its beloved citizens, then they'd be forced to take the situation seriously. While Loras was dubious about exposing his private life to the world, the inaction by the police forced his hand, because they were more likely to arrest him for attacking Bertrand than them do anything to stop Bertrand from stalking him.

The plan worked, and a more sympathetic officer was assigned to the case and took the matter seriously. Bertrand's home was raided, where thousands of images and articles of Loras were found, as well as garbled texts that compared Loras to an angel, some implying that he was an actual angel sent from God. But there were other texts that further implied Bertrand wanted to harm Loras because Loras refused to have contact with him, and he didn't like that rejection because why would an angel reject a dutiful follower? Lastly, personal objects were found in Bertrand's home, objects that could only have been obtained by being in the Hightower house, which added another layer of horror to the situation. At some point, Bertrand had been in Loras' home and bedroom. Loras thought the items had only been misplaced due to all the stress he was under.

Bertrand was arrested and charged after a short trial. Loras was given a lifetime stalking protection order to hopefully keep Bertrand away, and Bertrand was sentenced to 4 years in prison, which tbh would have been less if not for a bit of Hightower influence and meddling.

As you can imagine, this has messed Loras up a fair bit. Although he lives alone now, there is a lot of security around his home, he does suffer bouts of paranoia and has general trust issues, sometimes takes meds and sees a therapist. But he does not discuss that part of his life with the press anymore, no matter how much people press for the gritty details, and if they do he can be provoked to anger. It is worth noting that the case would have probably been covered by international news also, given Loras' celebrity status, so it's perfectly okay for other muses to be aware of it.

This headcanon is meant to be a parallel of Loras' actual canon. You start with him being his of knight of summer self, where the whole world is at his feet, nothing can harm him, and he's living in his own bubble. Then Bertrand replaces Renly's death, which I am not interested in writing in a modern verse, and forces Loras' bubble to burst, and he has to grow super quickly in order to adapt to this version of Kings Landing, which has him on edge and paranoid about the dangers lurking in every corner, much like his canon self. I did want to give him some kind of terrible thing to deal with in modern, but not as terrible as losing someone he loves. It's not interesting to write that again to me in another setting. New horrors that parallel are the interest to me.

always feel free to ask me questions about this headcanon too!

I always find it strange that when it comes to past period rp and gays / lesbians not being able to marry their partner, people in the rpc seem to think they were just okay with that. which is absolute madness. history is extremely queer, governments just don't want you to know that. queer people have always been here.

yes, what am i getting at, you wonder. and I'm sure many of ya'll know what's coming..

i will never write a version of loras who was okay with renly marrying margaery. it's not some cutesy powerthruple trope. it's a fucking creepy mess even if it was only political. renly sleeping with his sister? them having kids? loras forever appearing the third wheel in their relationship? loras doesn't do second place and I truly believe their relationship would have crumbled entirely at some point. loras will never blame margaery for the match because she unfortunately has no say in said matter. but renly will suffer his wrath for it, and their relationship will be broken after renly chooses a throne over them. you can't even say "renly would have to marry eventually," cus that's bs. robert was dead. stannis didn't give a shit. no elder family member to push him into it. renly didn't have to marry anyone. renly did what he did as a power move and as a result lost loras' trust completely. renly dies thinking loras no longer loved him, which wasn't true, but he was extremely angry.

i see his feelings about the matter often get invalidated (let's not even start on poor margs) for the sake of "it was the norm." and yeah, it sadly was. but that doesn't mean he didn't have feelings about it, nor rl queer people who were forced into the same position. it's obvious his feelings around it were negative given his reaction to sansa expressing grief for "margaery's loss." it was loras' loss and the only person we ever see acknowledge it is jaime.

WHAT DOES YOUR HEART LOOK LIKE?

a compass that doesn’t waver

You are someone who is certain of what you want. Maybe you always have been, or maybe you made a discovery that you haven’t been able to tear your eyes away from. Your heart is set and certain. You fight endlessly for your goals. Above all else, you know who you are and what you are trying to achieve. Just be careful not to tear yourself or others apart in pursuit of your ideals.

🌈⭐️💻🌼🎙️🎀📚📌🏆 ( but also all these apply me @ u )

🐝  *  ―  𝑺𝑯𝑶𝑼𝑻-𝑶𝑼𝑻𝑺 𝑶𝑭 𝑨𝑾𝑬𝑺𝑶𝑴𝑬𝑵𝑬𝑺𝑺.  / accepting / @greymount

🌈 ― aesthetically pleasing blog: @azmenka and not even because of Alex...but maybe a teeny bit. I just really love the ocean and vikingesque themed aesthetic, and I'm still in awe of Hannah's mobile header even now. It's just too good!

⭐️ ― convincing portrayal of a canon character: @harringtontm of whom I am resisting @ them for multiple categories. The sheer amount of effort my girl roro has put into her Steve is nothing short of magnificent. His speech, his mannerisms, his reactions and actions, are so well crafted that the Duffers would be envious of roros portrayal of him.

💻 ― excellent writing: @sinfyre Ozzy, my beloved. Everything they write is worthy of being in a bestseller. It's poetic yet still easy to understand. Ozzy strikes a very good balance with it and I could easily fool myself that I'm reading a Madeline Miller book.

🌼 ― creative headcanons: @spynorth reading Lucas headcanons often shows how much effort my m8 puts into their research. Idk this muse but I feel like I do just from reading Lucas headcanons etc and it is one of the magic things about Lucas. They're just so dedicated to exploring their characters and I too feel that on a personal level. Our blorbos are our kids we didn't ask for.

🎙️ ― great to talk to: @clutchofmuses if I need to scream about tyrell siblings, Emily is the person to do it with. She's just so enthusiastic about them that it brings out mine too...not that I ever needed a nudge lol. But she always compliments and screams at me over the things I write for her and I'm just living for her friendship tbh. I knew I wanted to keep her right away.

📚 ― nice threads to read: I'm going to say two people and you can't stop me. @desiredprince just writes a really good lestat okay. everything they write is pretty much pure gold and I am here to devour it all. the duality of soft man and absolute lunatic is stunning. secondly, @n1atruc because it's heretic and I don't want a dash without them on it. the nuance in their crowley is an utter joy to read and how he's just so unapologetically him no matter the setting is chefs kiss levels of excellence.

🎀 ― all-around kind person: @outlawiism / @darehearts there is literally no one nicer in the Tumblr rpc than Lucy. We've been mutuals for a few years now and she always has positive things to say, and is such a good friend to those in need of one. She will always build you up when you're feeling down too. We truly aren't worthy of her. I remember a while back that she actually got burnt out from literally being too nice (I think this is correct? Plz tell me if otherwise), and I hope she has a better balance of it now. She deserves to chill.

📌 ― a staple on the dash: @musenssang whom I have known for years is pretty much on all of my dashes, and I can't imagine a dash without Lise on it. And like Lise knows so much about history so her asoiaf headcanons are far more interesting than grrms. I said what I said.

🏆 ― 10/10 blog, would recommend: @shadowcovcn for being one of the few people who will always offer to make a verse or find a way to interact with my muses even if they are from polar opposites universes and fandoms. Ace always finds a way and I admire them greatly for that, and it makes you realise that they really care tbh. I love ace. 😭
