princess maker - future is now

[idolpro]

[ 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. ]

Obviously he needs to undergo a series of rigorous tests to prove his merits as a potential future member of this family.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Obviously.

[scarvedforlife]

Intelligence tests? Physical tests? Surely there's a way we can test him that's nice and succinct and extremely telling for us.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Throw a party for his peers and see how he operates in that setting. If he's going to break her heart, we'll know soon enough.

[scarvedforlife]

If it's a party, having Infinity, me, and Angel plan it will make it feel most natural. That leaves you, Bell, and Duality free for either engineering social situations to test him in or observation.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Excellent.

Make sure all the friends are on the invite list - hers and his. If we need to dig up who his friends are, then we need to get to work sooner rather than later.

[scarvedforlife]

Letting her pick the guest list'll probably be most natural.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Then I leave that part to you. And Primrose, of course.

[scarvedforlife]

I gladly act for our little future queen.

[hexsplosive]

Dump him in a tank full of poisonous snakes. If he survives, he is worthy.

[scarvedforlife]

Would anyone be able to survive that?

[hexsplosive]

Only the tenacious and determined will. And that, my dear Shogun, is the point.

[please do not actually suggest they kill Primrose’s boyfriend]

[scarvedforlife]

Hooow about potentially killing him socially instead? Intensity wants to throw a party with the boy and his friends attending so we can get a better look ourselves at what he's like.

[hexsplosive]

Eh, that’ll do. Social murder can be even worse than actual death. ☆

[scarvedforlife]

My thoughts exactly!
