Adaptational Job Change | |
| Handmaid (Fanfic) / int_23568a2a | comment |
Adaptational Job Change: Jane Seymour never becomes Queen and is executed as a traitor after giving birth to Edward. Due to similar reasons, Edward Seymour never becomes regent for Edward VI as the Duke of Somerset, being locked away in the tower instead. Mary and Elizabeth both never ascend to the throne of England. Mary marries the Duke of Bavaria, and while Elizabeth was briefly married to the French Dauphin, she goes on to marry Robert Dudley after being widowed. The fic's version of Prince Edward, due to him being born a bastard and a traitor's son, never becomes heir to the throne, let alone king. The epilogue shows that he eventually reconciled with his father, was named Earl of Richmond and married a daughter of the Staffords. William Stafford becomes a fully-fledged courtier due to Anne's influence and is eventually named Steward of her household. | |

Unknown Rival: Anne barely acknowledges Jane Seymour's existence, because in this reality she couldn't care less about her status as Henry's mistress. This comes back to bite everyone. Hard. | |

Wants a Prize for Basic Decency | |
| Handmaid (Fanfic) / int_24a045cd | comment |
Wants a Prize for Basic Decency: One of the reasons why Jane thinks she would be a better handmaid than Anne is that she would try to be kind to Cecily (Anne's daughter). As Katherine coldly points out, there's nothing noble about having to try to be kind to a toddler who has done nothing wrong to you. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
| Handmaid (Fanfic) / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: Anne Boleyn. Since it's Katherine she's in love with, she treats her (and Mary) far better than she did in canon and never tries to abuse the influence she has on Henry, which helps with her reputation in court. She's also a lot more lenient on Henry's affairs as a result, putting less strain on their relationship. Henry himself is a lot more heroic here, treating Katherine, Mary, and Anne significantly better due to never breaking from Rome and thus avoiding all the political headaches that came with that decision. | |

Last-Minute Baby Naming | |
| Handmaid (Fanfic) / int_52c6a4d | comment |
Last-Minute Baby Naming: An understandable example: by the time Edmund is born, Henry had come to regard his own name as cursed and his second choice of Edward was tainted by the actions of the Seymours, particularly since that's what Jane named her bastard. He briefly considers both Jasper and Owen before discarding them as too Welsh and not royal enough for a king's name before settling on Edmund. He also notes he hadn't given much thought to a girl's namenote Cecily, Elizabeth's older sister, was named by their half-sister Princess Mary, but naming Elizabeth is easy enough: both her grandmothers were named Elizabeth. He would later use Owen for his second son with Anne. Jane Seymour originally tries to name her son Henry, but is forbidden to do so after her treason. After briefly considering the even worse "Thomas" (after the man who tried to kill Anne), Kate managed to talk her into naming him Edward. | |

For Want of a Nail | |
| Handmaid (Fanfic) / int_79a60aec | comment |
For Want of a Nail: Two. One is the existence of the handmaid privilege, the other is that Anne falls in love with Katherine instead of Henry. By taking Anne as his handmaid, Henry does not have to set Katherine aside, leaving Mary legitimate and easing tensions both at court and on the international field. Anne's own status at court is much more respected; while she isn't universally-loved, she isn't outright hated like she was in the show and in history. After Anne successfully delivers a son, securing her position, Henry has no reason to seek another spouse and remains with her and Katherine until his eventual death in 1547. As a consequence, the English Reformation starts at a much slower pace, due to Henry having no need to break from Rome or disregard papal authority — taking a handmaid only requires the consent of the local papal legate, in this case Wolsey. The Sack of Rome isn't mentioned, most likely due to being less of a concern to Henry since he has no plans to divorce Katherine or annul their marriage. Thomas Cromwell's own ascent is stalled due to Cardinal Wolsey never falling out of favor and Thomas More replacing the latter first after his death before his own resignation. When Cromwell finally does become chancellor, he deliberately stays neutral with the Boleyns despite suspecting they may have similar religious leanings to his, due to Anne's friendship with Katherine. Since Anne starts coupling with Henry earlier, she has another daughter named Cecily before the historical birth of Elizabeth. Elizabeth is born with a male twin named Edmund, who replaces Edward VI as Henry's legitimate heir. She also gives Henry a second son, named Owen. As all of Anne's children are considered legitimate under the auspices of the Catholic Church, they're considered perfectly viable marriage partners by the rest of European Royalty straight from the beginningnote Elizabeth I was only really beset by foreign suitors when she finally ascended the throne. Mary is allowed to marry the Duke of Bavaria, since she has two younger sisters to make dynastic matches in her place and her children won't be threats to the royal succession. In turn, Cecily is engaged to the future Philip II of Spain, while Elizabeth is saddled with the Duke of Orleans. She later marries her childhood friend Robert Dudley after Charles dies soon after their marriage. Edmund, Elizabeth's twin, is the one to marry Mary, Queen of Scots, instead of Francis II. Mary herself is implied to have been raised in Scotland rather than France, like she historically was. Since Anne is in love with Katherine and not Henry, she never becomes jealous when Henry starts sneaking around with Jane Seymour; Henry himself is being a lot more discreet so as to not upset her during her pregnancy. This also means their relationship is much healthier, due to Anne not quarreling with him so much and only exerting her influence on him to either help her family out of the occasional jam or to convince him of something that Katherine cannot on her own. This has also a negative effect, in that Anne's lack of interference with the affair causes Jane to become pregnant with Edward far earlier and prompts her brother Thomas to attack Anne in hopes of killing her so she can be replaced by Jane. While Anne survives, it causes her to miscarry her and Henry's second child — the boy they and Katherine had all been hoping for. Since his difficulties with Anne aren't as severe, Henry actually resolves himself not to blame her in case her "fall" was a genuine accident. After a barely lucid Anne wakes up and confirms that she was shoved, he has Cromwell and Suffolk interrogate everyone who might have motive, including Margaret, his sister and Suffolk's wife. This puts even more strain on the Suffolks' marriage, eventually causing them to briefly retire from court to fix their relationship. Since his relationship with Anne isn't strained, Henry never truly attaches himself to Jane Seymour, viewing her as just another mistress but still feeding her false platitudes to keep her in his bed. Subsequently, after Thomas Seymour is revealed as Anne's attacker, Henry starts losing any fondness he once had for her, and after Jane accidentally reveals to Katherine that she knew about Thomas's guilt but decided to keep mum, he outright comes to hate her, going as far as to have her executed after she delivers Edward. This entire situation permanently ends the Seymours' ascent to power before it can even begin. Since Margaret Tudor never contracted consumption, Charles Brandon never marries Catherine Willoughby. She instead joins Mary's household after her marriage to the Duke of Bavaria, eventually finding her own husband in Cleves. Henry's other three historical wives have different (happier) fates as well: Anne of Cleves marries the Duke of Lorraine and gives birth to his son. She also befriends Mary after meeting her during one of her visits to her cousin, Mary's husband, helping her with one of her pregnancies. Katherine Howard is taken on as one of Anne's ladies-in-waiting after her ascension to Princess Consort before Katherine can be sent to Lambeth, preventing her from suffering sexual abuse from Henry Mannox or meeting Francis Dereham. As Henry has no need for another mistress or wife, this means she's completely free to marry Thomas Culpeper when they fall for each other. They later join Cecily's household after she departs for Spain to marry Philip. Katherine Parr becomes one of Anne's companions after she becomes Henry's handmaid, and thanks to some happenstance, marries Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey. Their happy marriage manages to temper his impulses, and they become Duke and Duchess of Norfolk upon Thomas Howard's death. Thanks to the Boleyns' increased status in court, George never marries Jane Parker due to conflicts over the dowry. Eventually, he publicly stays a bachelor while carrying on a secret relationship with Mark Smeaton. | |

Open Secret | |
| Handmaid (Fanfic) / int_8077793f | comment |
Open Secret: Despite Henry's best and genuine efforts, everyone in court (including his wife and handmaid) are perfectly aware of his courting of Jane Seymour. While some are unhappy with the situation, the two women in question don't really care: Katherine is used to Henry's cheating, while Anne is more interested in Katherine and is happy to ignore it as long as he doesn't flaunt the affair openly. If anything, she's more insulted by the fact that Henry genuinely believes he's fooling anybody. | |

Chosen Conception Partner | |
| Handmaid (Fanfic) / int_81f8731 | comment |
Chosen Conception Partner: This is how the handmaid privilege works. If a Queen could no longer bear children for their King and the King is in need of a son, then either one of the royal couple could select a woman of noble birth (usually one of the Queen's ladies-in-waiting) to bear children in her stead. The woman would then have five years to produce a son, with an extra two years added if their first child is female. If they succeed, then they would have a permanent position at court and crowned as a 'Princess Consort'. If they failed, they were dowered and wed off to a minor nobleman and usually replaced. | |

Broken Pedestal: Mary's opinion of her father wasn't all that great when he took a handmaid, though she eventually came around to the idea after realizing the necessity of it. It's when he takes on a mistress despite having essentially two wives (one of whom is carrying his child) that said opinion takes a sharp downturn. | |

Ambition Is Evil | |
| Handmaid (Fanfic) / int_9e1e14ea | comment |
Ambition Is Evil: One of the reasons why the handmaid privilege fell out of disuse before Henry revived it. If the Queen predeceased the King and the Princess Consort, then the former was legally obligated to marry the latter in her place. For handmaids with particularly ambitious families, that posed a problem; history is littered with families executed for trying to elevate their daughters' newfound status through...dishonest means. Thomas Seymour attacks a pregnant Anne so she can be replaced by the pregnant Jane. Despite whatever Jane believed, it becomes very clear that Thomas was driven by the thought of all he could gain by being the uncle of a prince/future king. Jane is an interesting case. She clearly wants to takes Anne's place, but also recognizes that desiring Anne dead to make that happen is an evil thought; instead, she tries to convince herself that she would be a superior handmaid to Anne, and thus things would be better off for everyone if Anne was dead. In short, she recognizes that ambition is evil, and so tries to convince herself that she isn't ambitious but righteous. | |

Only Known by Their Nickname: Due to a lot of characters sharing first names, the fic often calls various characters only by their nicknames or their titles. Katherine Parr is called "Kate" by those close to her. Her husband Henry Howard is almost always referred to as "Hal". Catherine Brooke, Mary's best friend, is called "Cathy" by nearly everybody. William Stafford is often called "Will" by those close to him. Katherine Howard seems to be known as "Kitty". | |

In Spite of a Nail | |

In Spite of a Nail: Anne still becomes Marquess of Pembroke, though in this case it was Katherine's idea (largely as an act of spite to Thomas Boleyn for his poor treatment of Anne). Anne still suffers a miscarriage for her second pregnancy. However, instead of being poisoned, she was pushed down a flight of stairs by Thomas Seymour. Edward, Henry's son by Jane Seymour, is still born. However, he is unambiguously a bastard and didn't reconcile with his father and siblings until he was twelve due to his mother and uncle being considered traitors. He's also born several years earlier, which is presumably why Jane survived his birth. | |

Undying Loyalty | |
| Handmaid (Fanfic) / int_f16da697 | comment |
Undying Loyalty: The reason why Katherine chose Anne to be Henry's handmaid — Anne's loyalty meant she would never try to displace Katherine, and would keep the ambitious Boleyns in line. In turn, Katherine Parr to Anne. This is one of the reasons why she and her husband take in Edward Fitzroy — so they can raise him to be loyal to his half-brother Edmund, Anne's son and Henry's legitimate heir. | |
