princess maker - Taisho Roman Revolution

[ When you insert the key and open the door, you'll find the room inside looks like the living room of a mansion. There are several doors, but one in particular stands out to you: it is ornately decorated, the very door's wood itself carved beautifully with gold etched in to make luxurious patterns depicting what looks like the sky and the wind blowing through the grasslands. Though the door is closed, you can see through it—as if it's somewhat transparent.

The room is painted baby blue and a gold-plated cradle sits in the room. Inside, a baby cries - high pitched and noisy, though immediately a nurse comes in to rock the child back to sleep. ]

-

[ Slowly, the scene changes, fading in and out with various silent scenes—the baby sits up, trying to climb out of her cradle; a little toddler dressed prettily with expensive clothes beams pleasantly; a tantrum, thrown by the little girl who's distressed; the little girl holding a puppy, pleased as punch; then the wall becomes opaque. ]

[ In the middle of the open doorway, a young girl the age of 10 sits on a chair, smiling at you. a golden retriever is curled up beside her.

This is your little girl. you couldn't help spoiling her, honestly - after all, she's a noble too, and she should like to become a princess as well. She deserves it! But you also know, with how your history's gone, she's going to have to work to get to the top. Still, you have faith in her - she's your girl, after all. ]

[ not to Samira, since.

well, this is not a conversation she needs to be present for ]

I honestly do not see the point in making her learn those things. Is there not a way we can put her in a specialized school or make her instructors see sense? Surely we can speak to them.

If it's a matter of necessity, then it isn't something she can simply avoid, even if we are nobility.

What makes any of that necessary?

She must have a proper education if she is going to be a princess, and we are responsible for raising her as such. We neglected emphasizing her education in the beginning--and now we are seeing the results.
syncintohell: (they definitely can’t see)

[ Muttering ]

Much as I really do not see why she must, I will not have her dreams trampled at this stage. In that case, what can be done now?

She at least will need to learn in her culture lessons.

[ sighs, okay that he can agree with ]

You raise a good point. Is a tutor the best option, then?

I think so, especially if she is struggling in certain areas.

I'm worried about pulling her out of shared classes when she's already becoming a recluse. Could we simply have her recite her lessons to us each day to be sure she retains it, and so we might assist her with anything she has trouble with? If either of you are good at maths, anyway.

It sounded as though she simply does not care. We can incentivize her learning, and if mere interest is enough to change her grades that ought to be enough. When she spoke to you, it did not sound as if the issue is that she is struggling.

I am decent at math, but it is true that it won't matter if she has no motivation. How can we inspire her to learn when she is already pursuing her dream?
syncintohell: (that had been constructed)

Better materials to work with? Dresses to go with the jewelry she makes? Arranging for a show of her works should she keep up her marks? I do not know which of those would best appeal to her. Yasuragi, has she mentioned interests outside her art to you?

I hope she does not resent us for this. But it is a reality she must face.

We can still reward her for doing well. Even if those who will come to be about her may be deserving of resentment, we can still give her a show of support so she may know we are on her side in this.
