I edited my post, just so you all know. Kind of missed that Majesty was talking to Eve and not to all of them >.> I blame the time and the energy drink.

There's no such things as too many posts!

Note to the rest of you.. Eve really isn't easy to see through, almost impossible, but since psychology is Reina's field of expertise I don't mind ;)

I was hoping you wouldn't mind too much.
I wanted to go into more detail (I love psychology) but I didn't want to bore you with Reina totally geeking out like a human text book

Posted!

@EllaBliss; I was checking out the character's profiles and I saw that Majesty was six foot tall and 100 pounds. I don't mean to be rude or anything, and I know it isn't that important, but it sort of bugged me. That would make Majesty seriously unhealthy.
I have loved the words and I have hated them. I only hope I have made them right.

Hi, I'm Sunshine! It's lovely to meet you!

So, El, I was wondering.. could you tell us more or less what are they supposed to do? Like, after those pictures are taken and all, I take it they should go to the dinner, some kind of ball or something when they meet CIA (I'll just keep calling him so) and then.. free time?

Also, CIA can, theoretically, walk into their living room or whatever it is they have, at any time, right? Or like, demand stuff or order stuff?

I haven't read the books, so I have no idea what the plot should be like xP I mean, I don't think we should follow the books in the plot itself, but maybe yes in the process of the selection, at first at least.

Oh also, I think @Pencil2paper is requesting to join on the SB page. I'm pretty sure you didn't get a notification for that, so just to let you know because it's easily overlooked xP

edit. Also, they all might be great actors and amazingly smart, but don't forget that CIA has lived his life pretending, practically, being the perfect figure on the outside and a mess when you get to know him.. they shouldn't all be quite able to see through his smiles and actions and words etc. that easily ;)

1. It's usually free time, princess classes, or a date with the prince (If he summons you) between meals.


2. Yeah, he can demand stuff, even stuff against the law (Perhaps breaking virginity with him before marriage,) and it's against the law AND The Selection rules to refuse whatever the prince asks for from you.

3. Basically, the prince is holding a competition to find a wife. That's kind of all that we need. The plot will depend on how we want to write. Squeeze in a few rebel attacks here and there.

4. Okay, I'll check that.

5. Since CIA is a fluent actor, he could probably see through their acts too.

Checking in. My profile's up now. Is it okay that my character is in caste 8 but is going to compete? She hides her scar with her hair and I'm working on a backstory of how she got through to the actual competition now...

1. Nice profile, I love it!

2. Caste eight is okay, but she would be looked down upon by everyone in the competition. I mean, she might find a friend. My character has a risk of being reduced to an eight anyways, so she might consider being friends.

3. Hurry up on the backstory!

Well, try one of integrating my character hasn't yet come to fruition, so I suppose I'll talk to people directly. :) The trials of being late to the party. I think she's going to shyly and demurely approach Reina and Majesty and ask them how they like they palace, maybe a few other pleasantries.
