shatter me.

He looks at his flute with a tuneless hum. “If only Dr. Pangloss were here to tell me how to proceed. Though, I suppose I’ll be alright since this is the best of all possible… Hold a moment, if those dolls are correct and I’ve been relocated to another plane of existence, does that mean I’ve come to be in a world outside of the best of all possible ones?!”

“If so, then we’re all doomed souls here!” This place was vastly different from her own dark and gloomy domain. From what’s she’s browsed ahead of time, prior to heading into the different worlds there was no where one hundred percent safe. She eyes the instrument in his hands, while leaning against her hammer. “...but doesn’t it depend on one’s perception of your situation? Hmm?”

“Hmph! I’m only telling the truth. You’re ugly and boring and horrible, I hate you. Everyone hates you.” The harsh words come easily to her; she means it all. So deep in denial is she, pinning all her grievances on Lisette is simply what she does. She turns her back on the other, moving to retrieve her abused tome. But at the other’s words, she whirls back round, eyes flashing dangerously.

“Shut up!” She screeches. “She’s going to be with me forever. She hasn’t been eaten, you horrible brute! Because she’s mine!”

Despite the changes in setting, nothing is different. The bubbling resentment and envy is present, along with all the other problems that came with it. Lisette bursts into giggles now, with hints of malice included in it. 

“Forever....? Ha! What a joke! ” Queen Egliette must have had her own opinions on the matter, but she couldn’t speak for her (nor did she care really). Lisette balances her weight while leaning against her hammer. “If the Nightmares really consumed her, there’s no way to get her back. Right? Unless....If she did, maybe plea to that drab and depressing man who lurks ‘round the Library.” 

Oh poor Fleta – how lonely is she...? It would never size up to loneliness she felt.

“Why are you here?” As if things couldn’t get any worse for Fleta; the last person she wanted to see here was that horrible, nasty girl! “Though, a world this drab and ugly suits you! Shoo, I don’t want to look at you. I’m going to go find her.” She wants nothing to do with Lisette; why should she have to hang around the cause of all their pain?

“I hate this stupid place! And I hate this stupid book! It’s not cute at all! I don’t want an ugly book like this, I want Egliette!” And so the tome she’s been gifted goes sailing through the air in her tantrum – look out below, everyone! The princess is in a temper!
