Currently updating my factbook document and hope to have it ready before I CTE again.

Hello EU! After a long and hard year we are back! BACK BACK BACK AGAIN! And this time to finish this series!


🎶Caxina's Drag Race! Start your Engines! Caxina's Drag Race May the Best Drag Queen Win🎶


[EN Version]

The last episode of Caxina's Drag Race was months ago. In the backstage, the queens had been ordered to go home due to political instabilities in the Principality, which recently changed capital. But the instability was long gone, and it was time for the greatest show in NS to go back on the line. Ladies start your engines and may the best drag queen WIN!”

The Queens all entered the werkroom after several months, it was practically unchanged since the events of the last episode. The mirror message that Madame Thénardier was still there, waiting to be cleaned by Bruxa Má do Oeste, who had survived last episode’s elimination.

The Queens gossiped a bit, trash-talked and threw shade at each other, like proper drag queens do. They missed each other a lot, even if previous animosities had not been forgotten. Guida Escarlate kept insulting people, Bruxa Má do Oeste, Valéria CP and Miss Betty Wintour kept telling her to shut up while almost beating her senseless. Madame Marco, now an internationally famous star more than ever after having presented one edition of the EuroVoice Song Contest, kept being pretty and shady. And Totarina, was still there, a victory, no? But they couldn’t spend the episode doing this, and the white elephant in the room. They all then looked in the mirror where Madame Thénardier wrote her goodbye message.

I may not have won
But I leave this competition a winner!
I’m proud to be part of this new Family <3
Madame Thénardier

Bruxa Má wiped the mirror clean, and the other girls quickly praised the Heryae queen for her kind heart. All but the Ofiussian Queen, that for some reason seemed to have beef with everyone (including the producers)

“Well finally Top 6!” Guida Escarlate announced happily”I was hoping you were the one eliminated, but seeing her go was so blissfully delightful”

“Read the room gurl”Valéria replied to her, annoyed “Or is your old carcass bitter because you were in the bottom?”

The other queens looked at Valéria shocked, usually she wasn’t one to be involved in drama but this queen was starting to get on her nerves. Months at home did not calm down her temper.

“She was one of the few people that showed you kindness and love despite your nasty attitude, and here you are talking badly about her!”



The previous day had left a lot of mixed feelings in the queens. They hadn’t been together for quite some time and feelings they felt towards one another were very mixed still.

“Era uma vez uma criança, que sonhava ver nos montes, ventoinhas a rodar! E depois vieram outras crianças, que fizeram Magalhães para estudar! Vilas e Cidades, Novas Oportunidades, Novas vidas que ganharam um amanhã!” Guida Escarlate entered the werkroom singing “Obrigado José Sócrates” “Obrigado, José Sócrates! Obrigado, meu amigo! Estou aqui com tanta gente, num abraço bem sentido! Obrigado, José Sócrates! Obrigado pela vida! Se quiseres dizer presente, Portugal estará contigo AMANHÃÃÃÃÃÃÃÃÃÃ!”

“If that gurl sings that another time I’m going to throat chop her into muteness” Totarina spoke, is this a joke? Is this a threat? The girls didn’t know, but Guida didn’t dare sing that song again for the rest of the day

The Queens kept gossiping, with the newly found personality of Totarina making herself known. You go gurl, don’t give us nothing. She even got confessionals.

Nany Invictus entered the room right as they were teasing Totarina, her presence being made known thanks to the never failing bell.

“Hello Hello Hello Ladies! Sometimes the world brings us down, but there is always a guiding star to show us how slay we can be”She spoke eloquently, but the queens looked very confused at her. Do you need retirement granny?”As such, the mini-challenge for today is that you get into quick drag and impersonate a celebrity who inspires you the most! Ready? GO!”

The Queens all ran to their make-up stations and started getting ready. Some of them looked more hideous than others, but maybe the objective was to look as hideous as possible?

Guida Escarlate dressed as Francisco Assis, Valéria CP dressed as Agnetha Fältskog, Miss Betty dressed as… well Anna Wintour cause of course she did.

“Guida Escarlate, your Francisco Assis impersonation took me to the European Parliament and left me wanting for a term as President of the Assembly of the Republic. Condragulations dear you are the winner of today’s mini challenge!”

“Now Ladies, for this week’s maxi-challenge, the life of the Great Mother, the Queen of Drag, Rupaul will be celebrated… with a DANCE NUMBER! This challenge will be done in two teams and Guida, as the winner of today’s mini challenge you can pick your own team okurrrr?” she clapped her hands and did a hair flip because she might be old but she still iconic “Now scram gurls! Ladies, start your engines! And May the best Drag queen, Win!”
Guida points at Bruxa Má do Oeste and at Valéria CP.

“You two are on my team losers. I hope you guys don’t make me lose this week!”

But little did she know… Valéria did not make her lose this week. Her lack of talent and coordination did. In fact, Valéria did so good that no-one could have seen it coming. She knocked it right out of the park, being the greatest star of the dance number.

Madame Marco, Betty Wintour and Bruxa Má do Oeste also delivered a very good performance, and if Valéria hadn’t just stole the show they could have had a shot at winning this week. On the other hand, Guida and Totarina gave a very mediocre performance. They weren’t bad, but it’s the top 6 if it’s not great it’s trash.


“Now Ladies, it’s time for you to BRING IT TO THE RUNWAY! Category is: Futuristic Drag Eleganza!”(all outfits will be described because I’m feeling generous)

Bruxa Má do Oeste came into the runway with a look fantasy inspired. She was serving futuristic sorceress, with a dark, iridescent cloak with a high collar, paired with a fitted jumpsuit that features a subtle, mystical pattern in shades of midnight blue and silver. Her make up was smoky and holographic, but the choice of accessories gave costume party realness. She tried her best and the look was good but would the judges like it?

Valéria followed a very different direction, going for cybernetic soldier of Alentejo and Algarve. She wore a deconstructed, asymmetrical outfit featuring a mix of latex, mesh, and metallic elements. The top is a structured, high-neck corset with neon green and black colour blocking, paired with high-waisted shorts and thigh-high boots. She took several elements of the military uniforms and applied them to the outfit and accessorized with pieces that looked almost real future pieces of tech. Valéria truly came to slay the competition this week or did she?

Miss Betty might not have been the best, but she came to serve futuristic socialite this week. In a floor-length gown made of a shimmering, iridescent fabric that changes colours under different lights. The dress features exaggerated, angular shoulders and a cinched waist, flowing into a dramatic mermaid silhouette. She almost looked she was going to the Oscars 2124 with this look. Her accessories here high quality locally made pieces of tech, from opera gloves to a fan with LEDs and which was heavily inspired by the Code Lyoko ones.

Madame Marco never flopped a Runway, and this week was another great week for her. Who said that jungles wouldn’t exist in the future? Certainly not her cause her outfit served futuristic Flora, from the hit tv show Winx Club mixed with Catwoman. Her look might sound crazy, and it was, and that’s why it was everything. She somehow brought a true holographic staff to the stage and fairy wings which were heavily decorated with tech elements. Another great week for Madame Marco, unless…

Guida Escarlate might not have slayed the challenge, but this was her week on the runway. The lights were all on her when she turned the corner looking like a true Intergalactic Empress (eat your heart out Dawn). She came out wearing a sleek, form-fitting bodysuit made of reflective, metallic fabric that shifts colours from deep blues to purples and silvers as she moves. The suit is embellished with intricate LED patterns that light up in sync with her movements. Her wig was a piece of art, sculpted in a platinum shade, styled into an avant-garde updo with several embedded LED strands pulsating with light. All of this while holding a futuristic looking sceptre with a glowing gem which illuminated the entire stage. Everyone was speechless. Maybe this tattle mouth from Ofiussia did know how to work the runway.

Last, but certainly not least, came Totarina… or maybe she was the least… She came into the runway wearing a structured, metallic mini dress with a reflective surface, designed to resemble a robotic exoskeleton. The dress features joint-like details and illuminated panels. However, that dress came with an Amazon tag on the back… for everyone to see. Gurl… at least you could have removed the tag, no? She accessorized it the best she could and while it gave futuristic, she truly embodied living in a police state because she even seemed to have a puppet master controlling her movements. A good runway, but these mistakes can’t be forgiven, or can they?

After all the queens walked the runway, they all came back to the stage, doing a bit of a presentation of their looks, Fashion Catwalk style, to receive their critiques from the judges.

“Ladies since we have arrived to the top six from this week forward either you are in the top or you are in the bottom… no-one will be sent to the untuck lounge before the others. Understood?” she looked at the queens who nodded their heads

“Very well then, in that case, Valéria CP, Miss Betty Wintour and Madame Marco, based on your performance this week you are the top 3 of this week and Bruxa Má do Oeste, Guida Escarlate, Totarina, you represent the bottoms of the week."

She paused once more and turned her gaze to the top queens

“Valéria CP tonight totally knocked it out of the park. You served amazing dance skills, and you showed us you were both H-O-T T-O G-O but also a trained dancer as good as any Beyoncé Back-up dancer. Tell me, did you learn all of this with your momma?”

Valéria nodded her head “Beannete taught me so much, she was a strict ass c*nt but she surely made me the dancer and performer I am today.”

“Oh that’s so sweet. I’m sure your drag mom is incredibly proud of you dear. You were the star of the show tonight and you are a star. Keep shining bright, okay?” she smiled and turned to the next one

“Miss Betty tonight was another good week for you. I have seen you perform in a club before, and this was as good or even better than the best performance I have seen from you. You did truly amazing, and I couldn’t have been prouder of you. And you as per usual look just stunning! Great job”

Miss Betty nodded her head and Nany turned to the last member of the top 3

“Madame Marco, you truly are a superstar. You already know this but truly, you are giving us everything every single week and I could not just stop praising you. You did a fantastic performance and once again your drag is so polished that some queens should take some notes. Great job this week.”

After finishing with the tops, Nany looked at the bottoms, and her face frowned a bit

“Bruxa Má do Oeste, my dear, this is starting to become a critique I give you every single week, but this is… well basic. Look around you everyone else is just on a whole different level we need more on the runway. You did a pretty good job on the challenge but with a runway like this I can’t reward your performance when Miss Betty and Madame Marco did just as well and are presenting looks which are so much more elevated than yours.”

“Totarina… honey… an Amazon tag? This is not Drag U; I expect excellency and those are unforgivable mistakes. You did… fine in the challenge. Not stellar and you did not draw my attention, but you did seem to know the moves so kudos to that? I expect you to give me much better than this next time”

“And last but certainly not least, Guida Escarlate. And before we talk about your challenge performance… this is just wow. This is DRAG. This look is editorial and references everything which I needed. You look amazing and if this was Caxina’s Next Top Model you would win this week. HOWEVER, this is not Caxina’s Next Top Mode. This is Drag Race, and we expect a better performance than what you delivered today. You seemed lost, trying to upstage your teammates and that fell a bit flat you know? Do better next week.”

Nany did a pause before clapping her hands.

“While the judges and I deliberate, you girls go join the others in the Untuck Lounge”



The queens all meet up in the Untuck Lounge, grabbing some cocktails in the meantime.

Tensions in the Untuck Lounge were sky-high this week. The stress of being another week in the bottom while Madame Marco was another week in the top three hit Bruxa Má pretty hard. And while the cocky comments Madame Marco usually does usually don’t affect her this week they did. And thus, Bruxa Má do Oeste left the Untuck lounge wanting to snatch Madame Marco’s weave. She didn’t… but she sure as well wanted to. Valéria tried to calm her down, but the Kukinalian girl needed to blast off some steam. She cried and she vented to those who came with her outside. She needed that. But she still wanted to snatch someone’s weave. A certain someone who came outside with a certain Guida Escarlate.

Madame Marco tried to be nice. She apologized to Bruxa Má and somehow, maybe the knowledge that she too was in the Bottom 3 made Guida Escarlate nicer… for a couple of minutes. The three of them stayed outside talking while everyone else returned to the Untuck Lounge. Totarina had never been so close to being eliminated and she stole the drinks of the gurls that were outside and got pretty drunk. Valéria and Miss Betty celebrated their high placement but unlike Totarina they didn’t get drunk. No… instead they enjoyed the show Totarina gave them cause who would have thought someone that strick could be so funny when she was so drunk.

“Queens back on the stage! Last Call!”



Back on the stage, Nany Invictus looked to the 6 competitors before delivering the final placements of the episode.

“Ladies I’ve Made some Decisions!”Nany did a dramatic pause.

“Valéria CP, tonight you served Club Renaissance. Mother you served so hard you sent us all to the stratosphere and in the runway you slayed all the homophobes”

“Madame Marco, who would have thought that the Taylor Swift lookalike could dance huh?”

“Miss Betty Wintour, you served Vogue on the runway and on the challenge you ruled the world”

Once again the dramatic judge, Nany, did a pause and then continued

“Valéria CP, you are the winner of this week’s challenge!” The Queen from A&A cried on the stage hearing this “You won an all-expenses paid trip to see mother Rupaul performing in her fracking estate”

“Madame Marco, Miss Betty Wintour, you are safe. You may step to the back of the stage.”

The three top queens went to the back of the stage, with Miss Betty hugging and supporting the overwhelmed Valéria Cp

Nany did a small pause and looked to the bottom queens with some pity.

“Totarina, my dear, I’m sorry but you are up for elimination” The queen from Totaristan nodded and just accepted her fate, but to those who watched Untucked it was clear she was clearly not in her best state of mind.

“Guida Escarlate, you are safe. You may step to the back of the stage” The queen from Ofiussia thanked Nany with a nod and did as she was told

“Bruxa Má do Oeste, I’m sorry my dear, but you are also up for elimination” The queen from Kukinalia nodded in agreement, she knew she was going to the bottom after seeing Guida’s runway

Totarina was still clearly out of it. Did she even learn the words to today’s lipsync after what she did in Untucked?

“Two Queens stand before me. Prior to tonight, you were asked to prepare a lip-sync performance to the ICONIC song Judas by Lady Gaga!” The camera cuts to the rest of the cast, with all the queens looking visibly excited for the pop icon performance[i] “Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me and save yourself FROM ELIMINATION! The time has come for you to lip-sync… for your life! Good luck and don’t funk it up!”

[i]Well… to make a long story short. Totarina was murdered right there and then. Bruxa Má do Oeste knew every single word, she came she saw, and she slayed the competition. The Butch Queen from Totaristan didn’t stand a chance. And lip-sync half-drunk didn’t help her case. She fumbled her moves and the words all the time. It was a sorry show to see… but one could just not look at her and enjoy an elevated, polished performance by Bruxa Má do Oeste. All the girls in the back of the stage were screaming for her, pushing her forward and living for her lipsync. This was her time to shine, her time to fight for a placement in the top 5 and she took it.

After they were done, the Queens in the back clapped enthusiastically. Nany didn’t spend any time before announcing the results after all it was obvious who deserved to stay and who deserved to go home.

“Bruxa Má do Oeste! Shantay, you Stay!”

The queen from Kukinalia thanked Nany and hugged Totarina, who showed little to no reactions, before going to the back of the stage and going to the back of the stage

“Totarina, you came you saw and you botched. Now it’s time to go back to the concentration camp hunny!”

Totarina went to the back of the stage with an almost robotic walk. Expressionless.

“Totar will nuke you all f*gs” She announced proudly, removing her wig and getting out of the stage escorted by security.

"Now that the crazy one is gone. Ladies! If you can’t love yourself how in the hell are you gonna love somebody else can I get a gayman up in here?!" Nany told the girls, from the judge’s table

The Queen screamed “Gayman”

“Now let the Music Play!” Judas by Lady Gaga was heard on the runway and the queens exited the stage while duckwalking and having a party on the stage really. A new top 5 was crowned, but the numbers were just going to come down from now on.

Congrats to Madame Marco for still being the frontrunner! I'll try to finish this series to see if she will win the Crown!

See you next episode! (which will come out next week or later let's see)

Inquista, Spain in the south, and Amexipania

And I'm once again back here! Hello EU how are you guys?

And with a new episode of Caxina's Drag Race!

Valéria CP from Alentejo and Algarve got her second challenge win, but will that be enough to get to the Top3? Will these challenge wins be enough to defeat Madame Marco and her incredible track record? Or will Madame Marco prevail against the Portuguese and Snatch the Crown and bring it to her region?

And sadly, we also say goodbye to Bruxa Má do Oeste from Kukinalia. Our very own Lip-sync Assassin was defeated and sent home by your very own Madame Marco.

🎶Caxina's Drag Race! Start your Engines! Caxina's Drag Race May the Best Drag Queen Win🎶


[EN Version]

The Queens all entered the werkroom dancing and celebrating. Totarina wasn’t really a… beloved character amongst the group. She was overly stiff and not really friendly most of the times. She was frequently rude or dismissive of other queens and could they really miss someone like her? Of course not. Today was a party, especially for the newly Crowned Lip-sync Assassin of the season, Bruxa Má do Oeste, who survived her fourth lip-sync and her third in a row.

Totarina didn’t even write a mirror message, her workstation was also incredibly messy. Did she have a tantrum in here? Wait there is also… is that… CUT THE CAMERAS

After a criminal cleaning crew was called in the Queens returned to werkroom. What a messy situation huh? What do you mean we have to pretend we didn’t see that? It was transmitted in National Television… I’M NOT PAID ENOUGH FOR THIS NANY!

“TOP 5 LADIES!” Madame Marco cheered after all the mess was cleared. “Finally only the talented ones are left”

“I don’t know about that… after all they are still here!” Guida looked at Bruxa Má do Oeste and Miss Betty Wintour with a very condescending look

“I don’t know why you are boasting so much, I don’t remember you winning a challenge since the first week we were here” Bruxa Má replied right after

“But I do remember you getting saved from the bottom due to your runway looks even when you underperform in the challenge. What’s up with that Gurl? Have you spent your free time beneath the judges table, is it?” Miss Betty added without missing a breath

“Well it’s not my fault that you don’t have good taste, is it? Maybe step up your game and you won’t be in the bottom because your runways are as unmemorable as you are” Guida turns to Bruxa Má “But I don’t think we will be seeing much of your face for very long when you just keep being so mediocre”

“Say that one more time and I’m going to rip your hair off your scalp Miss Thing.” Bruxa Má started taking her earrings off and was prepared to make her words reality.

“Oh you’re going to hit me? Do it b*tch! Maybe you’ll get kicked out earlier than I thought!”

Thankfully, before anyone might have gotten hurt Valéria and surprisingly Madame Marco intervened and separated the two Queens. Miss Betty took her friend to the other side of the werkroom and spent the next few minutes trying to calm down Bruxa Má, while Valéria CP gave a very stern talking down to Guida while Madame Marco was there just giving moral support and agreeing with Valéria. Who would have thought seeing that mess would have riled off the Queens like this?



The Queens came back to the werkroom, a new day had begun and after a good night’s sleep they were all much calmer now than they were the day before. Guida especially looked almost in a state of regret and Bruxa Má was also much calmer and also looked a bit apologetic.

“Bruxa Má, I would like to apologise for my comments yesterday. I tried to rile you up and get beneath your skin so that you would get disqualified and I’m sorry that I made you feel any kind of way”

Everyone looked surprised at Guida out of all people apologizing.

“Well, I’m a bit taken aback by your apology. I wasn’t really expecting you to apologise. But I too am sorry by my reaction, I overreacted, and I lost my temper.”

The two Queens hugged it out. How cute. Who would have thought these two out of all people would have such a cute moment.

“The competition is getting under all of our nerves. I’m glad you two were able to sort your differences.” Valéria sighed in relief, watching the emotional hug happen in front of her. And then… The bell rang.

Nany Invictus entered the room, surprised with the burst of emotion there.

“Hello Hello Hello Ladies! Am I interrupting something? I know we are all terribly sad with the departure of our dearly beloved Totarina but there’s no need to cry” The queens separated and laughed at such a notion. Did anyone miss her? Truly? “But well… to lighten up the mood today’s mini challenge is PUPPETS!”

The Pit Crew members entered the workroom carrying a puppet stage and a big box with a hole in it.

“Very well Gurls, you are going to shove your fist inside that box and the puppet which you get is going to be who you are going to parody. First up, since you won the last challenge, Valéria!”

Valéria went to the box and pulled a puppet that looked like Guida Escarlate out of drag, which almost didn’t pass through the hole cause even the puppets ego was so big.

“Guess I got Miss Delulu. Get ready to be read to filth gurl”

Next went, Madame Marco, who shoved her hand inside the box and pulled a puppet of Miss Betty Wintour out of drag.

“Oh, so I got the local one… boring”

Betty went after her and pulled a puppet of Madame Marco of the box, an identical representation of the blond twink she was out of drag.

“Hello Madame Marco, guess it’s time to teach you real drag”

Madame Marco scoffed at the comment, while Guida Escarlate went to pick her own puppet of the box, getting handed a Bruxa Má puppet.

“Don’t take it personally, will you?” she looked to Bruxa Má who laughed

Lastly came Bruxa Má who pulled the only puppet left, the puppet of Valéria CP.

“Oh, she’s a hard nut to crack but I’m going to try my best.”

The Queens all rushes to their workstations, working on the puppets and making them look like parody versions of each other. Some more successful than others in their transformation and some more shady and funny in their parodies. While Miss Betty and Madame Marco simply insulted each other using puppets, raising eyebrows from the other queens. Guida Escarlate did… an adequate job, maybe walking over eggshells, but not near as rude as she usually is. Bruxa Má gave it her all, but it was as she said, Valéria was truly a tough nut to crack and getting dirt on her without it sounding mean or unnecessary was really hard, besides she was a friend. But Valéria? Oh, this was her home turf, this was her kind of challenge, she was RUTHLESS. But not ruthless mean, oh no she was shady and funny. All the queens laughed, even Guida who usually took shade at heart.

“Valéria CP… About your Guida Escarlate impression I have one thing to say... Your Delulu was the Solulu! Condragulations dear you are the winner of today’s mini challenge! As a prize for your excellent performance, you are going to receive a surprise in this Week’s Untucked”

“Now Ladies, do you know what’s the most searched content on the internet? That’s right it’s corn!” she pullet a corncob filled with kernels out of… somewhere “ And that’s why in this week’s maxi challenge you are going to design and create an outfit entirely out of farm materials! Our esteemed farmers from Caxina… I mean who am I kidding we don’t have those! LADIES, start your engines! And May the best Drag queen, WIN!”

The Queens rushed to grab everything they could get their hands on and immediately got into work. Some already had a mental image of what they wanted to do, others… well they were going to wing it. Some fought for materials and others… well others were stirring drama in the werkroom. After all, it is drag race, what is drag race without shade and drama? And if you were going to say it’s Survivor you are wrong! Survivor is drag race but less gay!


“Now Ladies, it’s time for you to BRING IT TO THE RUNWAY! Category is: Farm Ladies Eleganza!”(all outfits will be described because I’m feeling generous and it’s the challenge)

“First up, Bruxa Má do Oeste, serving Country Chic Cowgirl

Bruxa Má do Oeste came out on runway with a mini dress made of patched denim hugs the body, with a flared skirt created from layers of hay bales for volume. Leather straps crisscrossed over the bodice, adding a rustic edge to the simple look. A checkered fabric neckerchief and a simple straw hat completed the look. She tried to sell the outfit to the judges, showing her sexier side and the construction of the garment.

“Next up, Guida Escarlate, bringing us Pastoral Princess Realness

The Ofiussian Queen came into the runway wearing a dress made of cotton and adorned with flower petals and leaves. The bodice featured a simple, fitted design, while the skirt flared out with layers of soft, flowing cotton. Twine was used as a belt and to create delicate, nature-inspired patterns on the dress. A crown of fresh flowers completed the look. She acted nice on the runway trying to highlight the small details in the fabric.

“And now, Madame Marco, emulating her inner Rustic Barnyard Belle

The Queen from the European Union appeared wearing a knee-length dress made from repurposed burlap sacks, cinched at the waist with a rope belt. Wooden buttons ran down the front of the dress, adding a quaint, handmade feel. Chicken feathers are used sparingly to create a feathered collar and cuffs. The simple outfit tried to be cute, and she tried her best to sell the outfit, using her natural charisma to do so.

“Who’s that? It’s Miss Betty Wintour, giving us Enchanted Forest Queen

The “local” Queen slowly entered the runway wearing a gown made of layers of soft, green moss, with intricate patterns of ivy leaves spiralling around her body. Twigs and branches were woven into the design, creating a structured yet organic silhouette. Bioluminescent fungi were strategically placed throughout the outfit, glowing softly in low light, giving the ensemble a magical, otherworldly feel. Delicate butterfly wings were used as accents on the shoulders and skirt, adding a touch of whimsy and colour. Finally, she wore a crown of twigs and ivy, with glowing fungi and butterfly wings decorating it. The judges were immediately taken aback by the look, and she sold it as a true monarch would.

“Last but not least, Valéria CP serving Golden Harvest Diva

The Queen from Alentejo and Algarve turned the corner into the runway wearing a shimmering gown entirely of woven golden hay, tailored to hug the body and flare out into an extravagant train. Corn husks create an intricate bodice with a plunging neckline, adorned with hand-painted pumpkin vines that spiral down the dress, adding vibrant green accents. She made a scepter out of corn stalks and decorated with glass shards, golden berries and copper wire. She looked regal and even pulled golden wheat grains out of nowhere, making a rain of wheat in the runway, to the judges awe.

After all the queens walked the runway, they all came back to the stage, doing a bit of a presentation of their looks, Fashion Catwalk style, to receive their critiques from the judges.

“Ladies, tonight two of you were stars while the rest were… fading. Valéria CP and Miss Betty you are the top two queens of the week"

She paused once more and turned her gaze to the top queens

“Valéria CP this was another amazing night for you. Your garment is just… perfection. It is so well constructed and so detailed. It looks like a lot of time and effort, and it certainly paid off. We knew you were an amazing seamstress and designer, but this is just on a whole other level than what we have seen before.” the Queen smiled and bowed her head hearing such praise

“And the other shining star tonight, Miss Betty Wintour. You won the ball with your amazing performance back then and tonight you gave us everything. Your look is on point, the accessories look amazing, you clearly know what you are doing and gurl, if I ever need a new outfit I’m calling your number. You are so much than just a local girl; you are a talented ass b*tch and never forget that you are making this country proud every week!” Miss Betty smiled hearing those critiques.

“Madame Marco, this week the look just feels subpar in comparison with what you have been showing us. It feels like it is lacking the star factor which you usually bring every single time. It’s a cute outfit, but if you look at Valéria or Miss Betty they just… gave so much more this week than you did. Honestly, I am a bit disappointed in you. Is there anything you would like to say?”

“Well, I just didn’t have time to finish everything that I wanted to do. Miss Betty was being very distracting in the werkroom, and I do think she tried to sabotage me in this challenge.”

Miss Betty immediately looks at her, shocked

“Miss Betty, would you like to respond to Madame Marco or could we move on to the next critique”

“As a matter of fact Mother Nany, yes. Yes, I would like to respond to Madame Marco. You are a liar and a cheater. None of the girls complained about me and if they had done it, I would have stopped. But It’s weird that you out of all people, you who was singing that you were already going to win this, you that tried to steal my materials is trying to come and throw me under the bus. No ma’am. We all had the same amount of time, use it better maybe.”

Madame Marco scoffed at Miss Betty’s answer and the judges gasped but continued giving critiques to the queens.

“Guida Escarlate, the main problem I have with your garment is that it feels like it’s a white dress and you glued stuff onto it. It doesn’t feel like you made it from scratch and that’s not bad per se, but at this point of the competition we are expecting more than what you presented on the runway.” Guida bowed her head hearing that critique, for once showing some humility on the stage[i]

“And finally… Bruxa Má do Oeste. And once again, not to sound repetitive, we need more. Your garment is… not bad, but it just feels like it’s once more a bit basic. A bit rough around the edges and most of all, looks like it’s heavily relying on your body and not on itself. We understand the concept and where you are coming from, but at the same time it is just not on the same level as some of the other outfits presented here tonight.”

[i]Nany did a pause before clapping her hands.

“While the judges and I deliberate, you girls go join the others in the Untuck Lounge”



The queens all meet up in the Untuck Lounge, grabbing some cocktails in the meantime.

Untucked this week was dominated by a fight between Miss Betty Wintour and Madame Marco. Previously Madame Marco had done great in design challenges, having even won the last one and she didn’t take well to the two other queens succeeding. And while she did consider Valéria fierce competition, she did not consider Miss Betty as someone remotely near her level, so knowing she did worse than her was stinging a lot. On the other side, Miss Betty was extremely pissed at the accusations Madame Marco did on the stage, she did not distract her whatsoever and that foreign queen needed a piece of her mind. And thus, the two queens started arguing.

Unfortunately for them, Valéria was on the mood to hear the two other queens insulting each other, cause no she was going to be the one insulting them. And hearing Madame Marco insulting her friend Miss Betty was something which she was not going to go past her, oh no she wasn’t. She joined Miss Betty in the fight against Madame Marco, but also told her friend she was being a dumb b*tch for even allowing Madame Marco to get her into this state. She screamed to the two of them to shut their mouth and let everyone drink their cocktails in peace. She also gave a very strict sermon to Madame Marco, calling her a prideful c*nt who thinks herself better than everyone else just because she is from the European Union and because she was rich and famous in her own region.[i]

[i]Valéria’s intervention was quick but damn she demolished the two of them, who took their argument to the parking lot. The argument was still very intense and by the end of it the two queens were crying from all the rage inside themselves. They truly hated each other. They hated who the other person represented and especially how the other person acted.

Meanwhile, inside the Untucked Lounge, Bruxa Má was having a very serious talk with Valéria and Guida and revealed to the two others that if she was going to be on the Bottom 2 tonight, she would give up and just stand there and do nothing. The three queens shared a moment and hugged each other, with Valéria and Guida trying to convince her to stay, however, the constant critiques of the judges telling her she wasn’t up to par with the other queens had gotten to her.

“Queens back on the stage! Last Call!”



Back on the stage, Nany Invictus looked to the 5 competitors before delivering the final placements of the episode.

“Ladies I’ve Made some Decisions!”Nany did a dramatic pause.

“Valéria CP, tonight you were our Golden Harvest Goddess, cause Diva isn’t enough for what you showed on the runway”

“Miss Betty Wintour, your outfit enchanted us and Twitter Twinks will always say your runway saved lifes”

Once again the dramatic judge, Nany, did a pause and then continued

“Valéria CP, you are the winner of this week’s challenge!” Miss Betty hugged Valéria, who almost started crying in the stage “You won a 1000€ gift card to spend at Bymba e Lola[i] and the opportunity to alongside two other persons of your choice to participate in the prestigious Caxina Fashion Week”

“Miss Betty Wintour, you are safe. You may step to the back of the stage.”

[i]The two top queens went to the back of the stage, with Miss Betty hugging and supporting the overwhelmed Valéria CP

Nany did a small pause and looked to the bottom queens with some pity.

“Madame Marco, tonight your attitude on the stage showed us that obstacles are needed for you to grow. I’m sorry my dear but you are up for elimination” The queen from European Union nodded and just accepted her fate, however her face showed the fear of going home so close to the crown.

“Guida Escarlate, your outfit tonight was… meh

“Bruxa Má do Este, your fashion was basic and your runway gave us mediocrity”

Nany paused for a moment looking at the two queens

“Bruxa Má do Oeste, I’m sorry my dear, but you are also up for elimination” The queen from Kukinalia cried a bit, while Guida hugged her before leaving to the back of the stage

“Two Queens stand before me. Prior to tonight, you were asked to prepare a lip-sync performance to the Hurt by Christina Aguilera!” The camera cuts to the rest of the cast, with the queens looking worried for the two other contestants “Ladies, this is your last chance to impress me and save yourself FROM ELIMINATION! The time has come for you to lip-sync… for your life! Good luck and don’t funk it up!”

This lipsync would go on to be reminded as one of the worst in the show’s history. Bruxa Má do Oeste barely moved from her spot and gave a stone cold performance with barely any emotion, only mouthing the words so that the judges wouldn’t stop the show. Meanwhile Madame Marco completely misread the theme of the song and gave a performance which was anything but what the song called for. It was messy and unnecessary, especially when Bruxa Má had already given up. The queens in the back were screaming for Bruxa Má to do something, but she stayed there… giving up. A sad sad show for a sad sad song.

After they were done, the Queens in the back all looked shocked, while Nany and the rest of the judges left the Judges Table and went to meet with the producers. One could see in Nany’s face that she wanted to eliminate the two of them right there and then. She came back after several minutes arguing with the producers, clearly very frustrated, as was everyone else form the Judges Pannel

“Madame Marco, for your performance throughout the season and due to the fact that we are so close to the final… Shantay! You Stay!”

The queen from European Union thanked Nany and went to the back of the stage, without even looking at Bruxa Má do Oeste

“Bruxa Má do Oeste, your run in the show was truly enchanting. Now Sashay away!”

The queen from Kukinalia went to the back of the stage, crying. Miss Betty, Valéria and Guida all went to hug her one last time.

“I put a spell on you. But you f*ckers had salt!” She announced proudly, doing a pose and pretending to melt while exiting out of the runway.

"Ladies! If you can’t love yourself how in the hell are you gonna love somebody else can I get a gayman up in here?!" Nany told the girls, from the judge’s table

The Queen screamed “Gayman”

“Now let the Music Play!” Hurt by Christina Aguilera was heard on the runway and the queens exited the stage while duckwalking and having a party on the stage really. A top 4 was crowned, and the crown in at a hairs length away.

Hello fellow nations. Yesterday I received a telegram stating that I had been ejected from the European Union by The Commonwealth of United in Diversity. They did so unjustly and maliciously after I participated in the game of zombies that NationStates does every year! Clearly this is an abuse of power. The game rules state everyone gets their citizens back at the end. Please my fellow nations hear my plea against this tyrant!
