23. FEMALE. FAERIE. STRAIGHT.
Being a Princess is not as easy as it looks from the outside. First, you have a lot of expectations on your head, especially when you are part of the royalty that controls an entire kingdom. Even though I may or may not be queen someday, our people still look up to me for hope and guidance. My parents also expect things from me much in the same way they expect them from my sister and brother. I'm probably the one you would consider most obedient to my parents wishes. I've never really enjoyed disappointing them or earning their anger. Honestly, the thought of failing them does frighten me. My parents also believe firmly that we, as royalty, should not consort with those below our status, especially outside of our kind. While pixies are fine to deal with as their leaders, they are not to be friends or lovers with. Werewolves and vampires are strictly forbidden. Shape shifters are a sore area but don't seem to upset them nearly as much since my parents seem to believe that eventually shifters will be able to shift as humans. Humans are fine to speak and deal with but essentially are used for whatever purpose we need at the time. Being of my kind, we tend to be manipulative and basically, tricksters. Some do it for amusements, others to survive. I see neither benefit in such acts, but have proven myself capable of the instinctive ability to do so.
I differ from my family in that I don't feel entitled to my position of power, nor do I believe that I am better than anyone else. I was just fortunate to be born of nobility and this must act and be treated as such. I do not always welcome this lifestyle although I have learned to be comfortable in it. With that being said, I tend to give many of my things away. I tell my mother and sister that I am done with them and they are useless to me, but really I just do this so I can give them away without seeming too selfless. As royalty, it is often moer correct to do things for selfish reasons than selfless even if the end result is the same. I would be giving my clothes to those less fortunate anyway, but this case means that I seem selfish to my family while trying to help those who need them because I care. I also tend to keep to wearing outfits only a few times so I can give them away practically new. I also give a lot of my time speaking and helping the people with various problems. This has always been part of my training as a princess because I should be able to speak with my people on a personal and general level. I use personal talks to confide in them that I want to help but that they should keep such good-doings to themselves. It isn't as though my family sees being kind as wrong, but that I shouldn't so freely give of myself in my position. That is more proper for less royal individuals. My time and efforts should be used elsewhere.
I usually do as I am told, but I do want to have a life of my own. I would like to see more of the world and come to know more people of different backgrounds and kinds. I would like to know those outside of my kingdom that have different traits and even from different species. I do not hold the same prejudice that my family often does - not for pixies or otherwise. I'm not very rebellious but I would like this for myself.
In many ways, I'm almost a rebellious type. My father says that I am far too headstrong and determined in some cases. When I believe in something or want something, I will stop at nothing to get it. I thought that everyone had the same thoughts when it came to their goals and dreams. I just give myself into everything I do and I feel far more than I am allowed to show. I have a lot of compassion for other creatures and people. I desire to be something more than is set for me, but I am unsure about how to go about it. All I know is that I will get it one way or another. I won't stop fighting for my dreams and ideas until they've been accomplished. I want to be proud of the legacy I leave behind and the person that people see me as. I don't want to remain the spoiled princess that people believe I am. I want to be the princess that my people deserve.
