harleyquinnzelz:rerereIntroducing - ‘Nellie King’‘Every ghost story sounds like a love note if I use the right tone of voice.”On the twelfth hour of the first day of October, 1989, forty-three women around the world gave birth. This was unusual only in the fact that none of them had been pregnant when the day first began. Sir Reginald Hargreeves, eccentric billionaire and adventurer, resolved to locate and adopt as many of the children as possible. He got seven. Cornelia King was not one of those seven.For the first time in her life, Martha King was not tempted by the promise of money and instead of giving up her daughter when Reginald Hargreeves came calling, she chose to keep her, to raise her. Finally, Martha had family of her own. And so much the better for her when little Nellie started displaying promising abilities, Martha sees them as an opportunity, and Nellie King is turned into some kind of show pony, meant to trick the poor, grieving customers who came calling with a phony medium act. In short, Nellie King had a very different childhood than the one the Hargreeves experienced and Martha King was very careful to keep her daughter away from Reginald Hargreeves, but a chance meeting with Ben Hargreeves when they are eight years old sets things into motion, and what follows is a tragic love story, spanning decades. Following Ben’s death, Nellie thought that was that, she had no further connection with the Hargreeves, but whether she likes it or not, Nellie is just as much part of this story as any member of the Hargreeves family.“Which is to say- I don’t always know the difference between haunting and hanging on.”tagging: @allaboutocs @ocappreciationtag @decennia @booty-boggins @mystic-scripture @guardiansofheroes @reykenobis @bravelittleflower @ocs-supporting-ocs @hiddenqveendom @susiesamurai @reyskestis @starcrossedjedis @jvstjewels @foxesandmagic @ocfairygodmother @villain-connoisseur -- source link
