Kim, (PlayerName), you made it!
|
You
|
1 (Wave to Bianca.) 2 (Hug Bianca.)
|
|
1 Kim, were you able to pick up my wedding dress and Prince Aston's attire? 2 ---
|
|
We dropped off your dress and Aston's attire at the palace. Where is Prince Aston, anyway?
|
|
Hmm... that's a good question. He was just here. I've barely been able to enjoy the party with him, honestly...
|
You
|
How come?
|
|
Don't repeat this, but... his mother seems quite overbearing. She tends to suffocate him a little, ESPECIALLY when I am around as well. I'm not sure she likes me very much...
|
You
|
1 Oh... that sucks. 2 I'm sure that's not it.
|
|
1 --- 2 I'm probably just being overly sensitive. Let me go and see if I can find Prince Aston - I'll be back shortly!
|
You
|
1 --- 2 Good luck!
|
|
A few minutes later, Prince Aston emerges from a crowd, happy to spot you and Kim...
|
|
Kim! So good to see you again! Oh - and you must be (PlayerName)! Prince Aston, delighted to make your acquaintance! I've heard such lovely things about you from Bianca.
|
You
|
A pleasure to meet you!
|
|
Apologies for not having come to meet you earlier. You know how these royal gatherings are... I do hope my darling Bianca isn't too upset that I've been absent!
|
You
|
1 She's not upset! 2 She's pretty upset.
|
|
1 --- 2 Bianca just ran off to find you. She couldn't have gone very far. I'm sure she'll be back any second...
|
|
Hang out for a bit so you and (PlayerName) can get to know each other!
|
You
|
(Smile at Aston.)
|
|
Just try to make me leave! You two are absolutely refreshing company compared to the flummery I'm used to...
|
You
|
What do you mean?
|
|
Life as a royal mostly means a lot of rehearsed and expected behaviors and interactions that must be conducted properly, and I'm boring myself just explaining it! That's partially why I love Bianca so much - she's such a free spirit. Making the ball optionally casual was actually her idea!
|
You
|
1 I like it! 2 It's too casual...
|
|
1 I think the ball is a smashing success. Bianca should be proud! Of course, not everyone agrees... namely, my mother. 2 ---
|
|
How are you two enjoying yourselves?
|
You
|
Uhm...
|
|
The Queen approaches Prince Aston...
|
|
Aston, there you are... I want to go home. Fetch the car and take me home at once.
|
|
Mother, the party has only just begun! I'm entertaining guests, and I've barely seen my fiancée at our own couple's party. I can't just leave...
|
|
Aston.
|
|
But I... ...I'm coming, mother. Kim, (PlayerName)... I hope you have a lovely evening. Please pass on my apologies to Bianca.
|
You
|
1 (Speechless.) 2 We will...
|
|
With a sigh of surrender, Prince Aston walks his mother towards the exit...
|
|
Wow... I'm totally speechless from what I just saw.
|
You
|
1 I feel bad for him. 2 Bianca will be sad. 3 Me too!
|
|
1 Bianca wasn't kidding when she said Prince Aston's mother was overbearing. 2 --- 3 ---
|
|
Poor Bianca. Come on, (PlayerName). Let's go tell her what happened.
|
|
Just then, Bianca returns
|
|
I'm so sorry, I cannot seem to find Prince Aston anywhere! It's as if he's completely disappeared from the party...
|
|
That's because Prince Aston HAS disappeared. His mother came by and asked him to take her home...
|
You
|
More like TOLD.
|
|
He didn't really seem like he had much of a choice. Unless he wanted to upset her...
|
You
|
1 He should have! 2 (Stay out of it.)
|
|
1 --- 2 I can't believe this - our couple's party is ruined! This isn't the first time she's done something like this, but it's definetly the worst!
|
|
The Queen hates me. She doesn't want me to be with Aston. I'm certain of it...
|
You
|
(Console Bianca.)
|
|
I just... I don't know what I've done wrong. Why she keeps coming between Aston and I. I wish Aston would stand up to her... for us.
|
|
Just try to focus on tomorrow, Bianca. Once you and Prince Aston are married, nothing will ever get between the two of you ever again!
|
You
|
1 Kim's right! 2 Hopefully...
|
|
1 Honestly, I think I'd be crying right now if it weren't for you two. I might still cry just for being glad to have you both in my life! 2 ---
|
You
|
1A (Hug Bianca.) 1B Happy to be here! 2 ---
|
|
1A --- 1B What am I doing sulking? We're at a ball and I'm getting married to the man of my dreams tomorrow, so LET'S CELEBRATE! 2 ---
|
You
|
1A --- 1B Cheers to that! 2 ---
