In Greek mythology, Cassandra of Troy was born with an extraordinary gift of foresight. The future called to her, but the present mistreated her. Her only flaw was that she could not control it. However, she had been subjected to another curse, one that appealed to both men and gods alike. Cassandra was beautiful. Some compared her to Aphrodite, while others simply desired her in envious silence. And then she was condemned. The day Apollo laid eyes on her, the ink had already dried on the paper. He craved her. She wanted to learn discipline. He taught it to her, and when the time came to make the transaction, she stepped back. A symbolic no that had cursed her. No one would listen to her predictions anymore, no man would follow her wise advice, and all men would die. Cassandra Hasen had never had time to ask her mother why she had chosen to name her that. As the years went by, she felt more and more that this name was disastrous for her. Despite the science, the knowledge she strove to acquire and develop, men seemed deaf to her.Or perhaps there had never been any curse. Perhaps the answer to her indignation was obvious, simple but painful. Her status as a woman limited her in the world of the Roaring Twenties. Her gender shaped her ambition without her having the right to say a word. Cassandra Hasen only asked to be heard, because she was convinced of one thing. She was brilliant. She just needed someone to notice. Peaky Blinders: season 2

↳ 𝐒𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐓 Caterina Fiorelli is a collection of spare parts. English born, Italian name, and French raised, she has never quite belonged anywhere. She speaks five languages and tells no one. She reads poetry by candlelight and lets the world believe she is only a pretty face. After fifteen years away, she returns to London expecting a quiet life of books and piano and polite society. She does not expect him. He is loud where she is quiet. Brutal where she is gentle, and exactly the kind of person she should avoid. A gangster in a room full of businessmen who pretend not to be exactly the same. When he crosses the room, tells some desperate fool to fuck off, and calls her sweetheart, she should be offended. And Caterina, who has never been surprised by anyone, finds herself completely surprised by him. Alfie Solomons x OC Slight Tommy Shelby x OC (because why not :)) (Season 2-)

Birmingham, 1919. ​Clara Mae Bennett belongs to a world of polished silver and quiet drawing rooms. Thomas Shelby belongs to the grit, smoke, and razor blades of Small Heath. ​When her brother's mistakes force Clara into the path of the ruthless Peaky Blinders leader, she intends only to save her family and escape. She didn't account for Tommy's cold, calculating gaze or the dangerous, slow-burn psychological game that sparks between them. ​In a city built on smoke and secrets, playing with fire is a deadly gamble. Because once the blade cuts, there is no going back.

Florence | In which Thomas Shelby seeks the comforts of a prostitute on a rainy drunken night, fueled by whiskey and the trauma left behind from The Great War. All the while, each managing to save the other without even realizing. Or In which Thomas Shelby falls in love with a whore. [Based on and inspired by my Thomas Shelby One Shot "Soft Hearted"]
