Catalina is saddened; the Pope is in Spain and she cannot receive him because she is in England. She hopes that her parents and older sister will receive him in Castile with the highest honors.

Catalina prays that England will continue to have a Catholic faith for a long time.

Oh, how she's clinging tight to her as if she never ever wants to let go.

The words, oh the words spoken in her Spanish heavy accent nearly melts her very heart.

"My lady mother," Mary sighs in a tear-soaked husky voice. "I have dreamt of this and praise God for answering me."

[Catherine of Aragon 👑 @CathyAragon24]

She almost immediately hugs her back.

"María, mi corazón...I've missed you so much."

A warm smile passes over her face- a specific sort of warmth, like the first flowers blooming at winter's end.

She's ABSOLUTELY letting them catch up. How could she ever refuse?

She has missed @DcveOfLove so much.

She will approach going into the deepest of curtesy and waiting for her to give her leave to rise.

[𝓜𝓪𝓻𝔂, 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓠𝓾𝓮𝓷𝓮 @FaithUnbended]

Amen.

Mary!

— Isabel couldn't help but greet her niece with joy. It had been quite some time since she'd last seen her. She approached and took both of the hands of the heir to the English throne.—

I'm so glad to see you, Mary. You look well!

[𝓜𝓪𝓻𝔂, 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓠𝓾𝓮𝓷𝓮 @FaithUnbended]

She joyfully and with enthusiasm took her aunt's hands, nearly clinging to her.

She had missed her Spanish family more than she could say.

"Thank goodness the winter is over and my father has allowed me to leave dreary Wales and return to court. I am so gladdened to see you."

There should be dancing and merriment just like that Putain celebrated when her mother died and went to Heaven.

She has no doubts that the Putain is now rotting in Hades.

Tackle hugs @CathyAragon24 who has been deeply and often on both hers and her secretary's minds.

Oh, oh how she's missed her and has such a deep and renewed appreciation for her. Please let them catch up?!

[𝓜𝓪𝓻𝔂, 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓠𝓾𝓮𝓷𝓮 @FaithUnbended]

Mary couldn't help clutch her rosary beads and say a silent prayer for the French and English courts, both ruled by such godless 𝓜𝓮𝓷!

At the mention of a husband, Mary blushed crimson.

"What are your thoughts, dearest cousin? I would love to hear them. Both are fine men."

[𝕯𝖺𝗆𝖾 𝓭𝓮 𝓵𝓪 ᴾ͟ᵃ͟ⁱ͟ˣ @LeonorOfAustria]

"You know the French court is a godless place, so let us discuss something more palatable instead... Let's say, your search for a suitable husband. Who are you better inclined to, my nephew Felipe or my step son, Henri? I hear they are both very taken with you."

[𝓜𝓪𝓻𝔂, 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓠𝓾𝓮𝓷𝓮 @FaithUnbended]

Ding dong, the witch is dead.

Literally.

[𝓜𝓪𝓻𝔂, 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓠𝓾𝓮𝓷𝓮 @FaithUnbended]

Mary blushed. It had been a long time since she received compliments so freely.

"You flatter me, dearest cousin," she laughed lightly. "I hope you had a good Easter and the French court marked it with the reverence it deserves."

[𝕯𝖺𝗆𝖾 𝓭𝓮 𝓵𝓪 ᴾ͟ᵃ͟ⁱ͟ˣ @LeonorOfAustria]

"Cousin! You grow lovelier every time I lay eyes on you."

[𝓜𝓪𝓻𝔂, 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓠𝓾𝓮𝓷𝓮 @FaithUnbended]

Pines for Felipe.

[𝓜𝓪𝓻𝔂, 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓠𝓾𝓮𝓷𝓮 @FaithUnbended]

The Reader can find her in prayer.

[𝓜𝓪𝓻𝔂, 𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓠𝓾𝓮𝓷𝓮 @FaithUnbended]

A demure wave to her beautiful aunt.

She is so glad someone else in the family believes in the importance of faith and piety and being the best Christians that they can be every day.

Buenas tardes 🦋

I hope you were all and had a wonderful Semana Santa (Easter week) during my absence.

This English pattern halfcrown was minted during the joint reign of Philip & Mary in 1554. Mary is depicted on one side and Philip II of Spain on the other. The coin did not enter circulation. This specimen from the Hunterian collection is one of very few surviving examples.

[𝕯𝖺𝗆𝖾 𝓭𝓮 𝓵𝓪 ᴾ͟ᵃ͟ⁱ͟ˣ @LeonorOfAustria]

You're right. My brother has enough on his plate, we should aid him by taking care of this matter.
