DAY 209 | vi ( audio ) → open.
We need a Sadie Hawkins. [ seemingly unprompted, but it's been on her mind for a while now. something wholesome and fun that everyone can participate in without pesky age requirements or being weary of stepping foot in a bar or a vampire-owned establishment. ] It's a dance - not as formal as prom, but there's usually a theme of some kind involved. For example, my sorority at Yale was planning on holding a Phantom themed Sadie Hawkins towards the end of the fall semester. Our theme will definitely not be anything involving Andrew Lloyd Webber. Rebekah and I will be working out those details - theme, where, when...

[ because her original vampire bestie is the obvious choice for partner in dance planning crime. ]

Another thing: the girls usually do the asking for a Sadie Hawkins. None of this misogynistic nonsense of waiting for a guy who's never going to notice you to ask you to go to the dance with him. You get to make him sweat and worry that no-one's going to ask him and he'll be forced to go stag. But, since I know not everyone is of the heterosexual persuasion here, I say interpret the tradition as it applies to you. If you're a boy who likes boys, ask a boy. You don't have to go with a girl if that's not who you are. This should be something fun for us, not anything that makes people feel uncomfortable.

	Stateside? [Such a different version.] I was in private schooling. We did have balls sometimes, but they were royal events, not school ones. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The United States? You're-- [ wait. royal? ] ...royal. As in royalty? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	A princess of Britannia, but Britannia is hardly in power here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're still a princess, though. An actual princess. That means something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What do you think it means? [Curious rather than challenging.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That you were born into a greatness most people will never know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It was certainly different. [She hesitates to call it greatness, but not because she was displeased with her life.] At least it seems that way. I suppose it's difficult to know both. [Though her brother, Lelouch, and sister, Nunnally certainly had.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Both? Being royal and being not-royal? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes. Well, to know two different ways of growing up at least. (Reply to this) (Parent)
