part 353 whalers on the moon

[aphanon_meme]

We've been here over a year now! I can hardly believe it! Dreamwidth's been pretty good, I'd say, with almost no downtime to speak of and all that! Anyway... how is your spring going? Or I guess it's almost summer, isn't it? Hopefully it's been well! I've been catching up on work and new movies, all very exciting stuff, I'm sure.

Enjoy part 353!

I HAVEN'T THOUGHT ABOUT THIS IN YEARS ANON I HAVE NO DETAILS FOR YOU.

I kind of developed the hc when I picked up Bismark's biography on a whim (sidenote: the entire first chapter of Bismark's biography is about Old Fritz, lest we forget who the most important Prussian military leader of all time was). I mean I've always had the hc that Julchen would sleep with her soldiers on occasion, especially when she was a cocky, power hungry, I do what I want Kingdom and Fritz did it too so sleeping with the head military adviser isn't really that much of stretch. Remember Bismark wasn't technically her boss, just a very high ranking and respected human, she wouldn't see it much differently than sleeping with a random human, or so she would tell herself anyway. And when Bismark's biography talks about his early life in politics there are like long sections on end about how even though he loved his wife he always wanted someone smarter and more bookish, and with Julchen being a canon bookworm it just kind of sealed the deal in my mind. After all, nothing gets Prussia all hot and horny like listening to her partner talk about making her strong, how they're going to crush Austria under their boots, and make her acknowledge Prussia (well, Germany in this case) as her superior. And to be fair Fritz was better at this too, but he was gay, so let's just say Julchen had to wait a hundred years to ride one hell of a hater boner for Austria. Plus after that he got to use crushing France as even more pillow talk, Bismark knew his nation well and goddamn does she like when her people know her.

BUT Bismark was also a little...mentally unstable. Smart as hell, but kind of crazy. He threatened suicide when Kaiser Wilhelm didn't give him what he wanted more than once. That, and the whole joining into the German Empire slowly ending Prussia's autonomy thing, probably left her very conflicted about him both as a mentor and as a partner. So regret fuck, but she still liked him a lot. She's got a thing for crazy old bastards!
