Years 12-20
in reply to a message by saphirdufeu
Year 12
The streets of London are menaced for several months by a killer whose violence is almost unprecedented. Frighteningly, they are never caught, and Katherine is kept up by nightmares for weeks.
Year 13
The King of Denmark proposes that Lotta is betrothed his 14-year-old son, Christian - however, Alexandra insists that she is too young to be engaged. They agree to keep options open until Lotta is 14 and Christian 17. Lotta begins a correspondance with Christian.
Year 14
Women's rights activists again stage protests outside Parliament, which this time descend into violence. Queen Alexandra voices her approval for the sentiment, if not the practice, of the protests.
Year 15
Although Leopold and Alexandra have gotten along very well for 16 or 17 years of marriage now, they were never quite in love. However, when the Danish king and some of his family come to visit, Leopold cannot help but be taken with the king's sister, Christina, whose husband died some 6 years ago. Naturally, the relationship could never be, but Leopold confides his feelings in Alexandra all the same.
Year 16
A few weeks after the twins turn 14, an explosive argument kicks off between Leopold and Thomas. They refuse to tell anyone what it was about - Thomas won't even confide in Lotta - but the two of them refuse to speak for almost three weeks. Eventually, things cool down, as Thomas finds a new target for his outrage: Lotta, who has now been speaking with Prince Christian of Denmark for 3 years, tells her family that she would indeed be happy to marry him. The engagement is arranged within a few days, and although Thomas isn't happy at the idea of the loss of his sister, everyone else is thrilled. The couple will be married when Charlotte is 18.

Year 17
Thomas and Lotta's cat, May, dies - the family gets a new kitten whom they call Vinnie.
Year 18
The family move their main residence from Buckingham to Windsor as the children grow older.
Year 19
Alexandra and Katherine fight about how frequently Katherine should be excused from her lessons to go riding or take part in other sporting pursuits.
Year 20
Lotta and Christian are married in a ceremony in Denmark - their entire families both attend, and the event is well-covered in the British press.

21-24
Year 21
One of Leopold's most trusted advisors, Lord Whittingham, passed away a few months ago. Leopold had known him since he was a child, and while there are several options for his replacement, but Leopold cannot bring himself to choose any of them, and so leaves his post vacant instead.

Charlotte Maria Alexandra Courtenay Fallingborg, Princess of Denmark "Lotta" [19, blonde hair, brown eyes]
Christian Frederik Nicolai Fallingborg, Crown Prince of Denmark [22, red hair, brown eyes]
Alexander Christian Leopold Fallingborg, Prince of Denmark [0, red hair, brown eyes]
There is great excitement over in Denmark as Lotta gives birth to a son, barely a year after she and Christian are married. Their son, Alexander, takes his second middle name from his grandfather. The entire English royal family comes over to Denmark for his christening - the 10-year-old Max and Lionel are particularly interested in their new nephew.
Year 22
The 15-year-old Theodore has increasingly been causing trouble for his parents, associating with the "wrong crowds" despite his parents' best attempts to stop him. Therefore, they resort to sending him to stay with Alexandra's now elderly father, a trick which worked on the twins and Katherine when they were young.

Dagny Helena Maria Fallingbord, Princess of Denmark [0, red hair, brown eyes]
The nation is thrilled when it is announced that Lotta is again expecting. She gives birth to a healthy girl, Dagny, with the same red hair as her father. This time, only Alexandra and Katherine come to the christening. Much to Lotta's distress, Christian decides that he will serve in the army for several years at least before he must take the throne - although his regiment is unlikely to be put in too much danger, she still worries for his safety.
