International Women’s Day: Junie

This is an answer to [personal profile] kelkyag‘s question asked here for International Women’s Day: “What does Junie want to do when she grows up? (At any value of ‘now’ you feel like writing about.)”

Junie as a child is very torn about what she wants to be when she grows up. She sometimes wants to be a ballerina, sometimes an ambassador to one of the far-flung nonhuman settlements. Sometimes she wants to do her mother’s job, and act as a cultural translator; sometimes she wants to be a wizard like her father (and like her brother). For a week, she wanted to be a dragon, until she realized that was not biologically possible. As of “now,” being the kidnapping-Junie storyline, she wants to be a lawyer and an FBI agent.

International Women’s Day: Fae Apoc Presidents

This is an answer to [personal profile] clare_dragonfly‘s question asked here for International Women’s Day: “Tell me whether there were any woman presidents in the world of fae apoc.”

Fae apoc’s world governments follows the same pattern as our world up to 2011, so there was never a woman president of the US while it was whole. However, in the years after the apocalypse, remnants of the US government held together – first in bunkers and then in a small area of the East Coast, heading up into Ohio. In that time, many of the presidents were women, and continued to be as the decades progressed.
