mrosenb1 — 2024-11-12 16:42:11 UTC

Koton is a gleaming city of glass and crystal. The streets are bustling. People are dressed in all sorts of extravagant fashions, much different from the Outer Blush's more practical wear.

They pull out a fancy blade from their bathrobe and poke a very small hole in their arm. they push for blood to come out in a few little droplets which they catch in a cup on the counter.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 18:52:00 UTC

They clean themself off and open one of the bathroom mirrors, revealing an alter full of more mirrors. They place the cup in the middle and the blade into it. They light it on fire.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:07:22 UTC

At the end they hug and Ellari winces.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:08:25 UTC

He asks what's up and Ellari just says they feel sore due to their condition.

Their father offers to send some pain medication for them. They agree to it.

Their father leaves and they look out the window. We see Koton.

Shots of families throughout Koton getting ready. We see betting on candidates, people eating themed foods, etc.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:11:52 UTC

We end on the front of the hotel, getting a better look at it than we did when Gas went in, and see it has a big banner on it or something celebrating the upcoming quouwe.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:13:10 UTC

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:20:58 UTC

The ones in the front babble on about logistics and styles and whats trending right now

Gas's Hotel Room

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:32:33 UTC

We see Gas sleeping and the sound of voices getting louder as Gas stirs.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:32:57 UTC

The door slams open as they start hanging absurd clothing options on the furniture, one of them shoes Jorje out assuming he flew in and slams the window after him, some of them start discussing makeup options.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:35:01 UTC

Gas is barely sitting up on her own when they start getting in her face, putting fabrics against her celia and skin, etc.

Gas starts to really wake up now and tries to ask what is going on but is handed a bunch of capsules and ordered to chew on them

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:35:56 UTC

One of them asks gas if she prefers skirts and another one answers on her behalf, every time she starts talking she gets talked over

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:36:46 UTC

She rushes into the bathroom to spit out the tablets and someone throws a bunch of undergarments in after her

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:37:35 UTC

They talk, stategizing and after barely a moment start pounding asking her to come out quicker.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:44:45 UTC

She is immediately swept back up into the chaos and we see a montage of her being put into an absolutely ridiculous outfit, Having elaborate makeup applied to her face, and being told she must and cant say all sorts of things.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:47:29 UTC

One of them says something about her missing a certain "pow factor" and pierces one of her celia with a Star ornamentation.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:49:29 UTC

This pushes her over the edge and she starts yelling at them to get out, which they promptly do.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:50:52 UTC

leaving behind a pamplet and nothing else.

Looking into the mirror

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:54:52 UTC

Gas has a bit of a break down. She wants to change into her own clothes, but all of these ones lace up/zip up in the back and she can't reach.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-13 19:56:46 UTC

Gas grabs the schedule

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-17 23:14:14 UTC

and decides to keep going.

She goes and gets a small notebook and cant find a pocket to put it in, so she just holds it as a clutch.

Kaeliw started trying to give advice but Gas brushes her off.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-17 23:27:58 UTC

Gas has her notebook out and is not paying attention to the other contestants until it's Kaeliw's turn.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-17 23:28:35 UTC

Kaeliw gives a very personable but not political introduction. Gas looks alarmed when the camera then pans to her.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-17 23:29:20 UTC

She starts giving a political speech, and the people "off set" gesture for her to smile and play it up a little. She doubles down and delivers a moving political statement.

She feels really confused, and disoriented

Kaeliw says shes mostly here for her familys sake, so she understands feeling not great about the vibe

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-17 23:37:06 UTC

Kaeliws family is in extreme debt, so shes just hoping to find real enough love here to marry someone wealthy.

She points out they have some time before the next event (dinner) if Gas wants to do something normal.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-17 23:39:43 UTC

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 00:27:49 UTC

Gas is playing a one person game to let off steam. She is clearly struggling in her ridiculous outfit.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 00:29:18 UTC

It comes down to pettyness and Triadi insults Gas for wearing the same outfit twice.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 00:32:34 UTC

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 00:42:07 UTC

IMPORTANT: Gas never mentions politics.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 00:42:20 UTC

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 00:59:06 UTC

Gas goes on some more dates with Ellari. They're a bit hit or miss. Lots are clearly group things like dancing where everyone is taking a turn.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:00:07 UTC

Narration with shots.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:05:15 UTC

Things are getting worse in the outer blush.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:10:27 UTC

They have a "heart to heart" Ellari claims they felt like Gas was the only one they could talk to about how stressed they are. Gas says she's stressed about home. They "bond".

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:11:21 UTC

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:16:23 UTC

Mention the upcoming announcement from Ellari

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:17:02 UTC

Somewhat unusual to get an announcement at this time but not unprecidented.

She is very disoriented

Gas sits with Kaeliw, who is mid conversation with Triadi, Frenik and Quilba.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:24:14 UTC

Kaeliw doesn't seem great and is treating Gas oddly.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:24:41 UTC

Triadi is speculating about the announcement and listing people shes seen.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:26:53 UTC

Grant comes in and mentions he saw Gas go visit Ellari last night.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:27:18 UTC

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:28:18 UTC

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:28:57 UTC

Gas asks if Kaeliw is ok.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:29:10 UTC

Bathroom

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:29:16 UTC

Kaeliw says she's fine and that she just didnt appreciate Grant's statement. Gas agrees on that point

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:29:53 UTC

Gas says Kaeliw doesnt seem well slept.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:30:27 UTC

Kaeliw claims she just had a lot of dreams last night.

Flashback - Kaeliw's hotel room.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:31:03 UTC

Kaeliw and Gas are fake flirting. This same footage should be present - audio in the montage.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:31:41 UTC

It gets a little spicy

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:31:51 UTC

Gas pulls back, ending the scene and asks how it was. Kaeliw says it was great with enthusiasm and then hastily adds on some notes.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:32:20 UTC

Gas encourages her to go take a nap.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:33:54 UTC

The scene then departs form an accurate memory as Gas goes farther with the modified scene. Finally kissing Kaeliw.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:36:04 UTC

Gas is talking with Quilba and Triadi.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:38:18 UTC

They discuss something then wonder where Frenik is.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:39:08 UTC

Gas muses that the must have taken her advice and is late.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:39:27 UTC

She awakes with a start.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:39:41 UTC

Party

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:40:04 UTC

Kaeliw runs into the party late.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:40:20 UTC

Triadi theorizes that she must be Ellari's latest summon.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:40:53 UTC

People are glad to see her.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:41:16 UTC

A prism projector is brought in by some servents

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:41:58 UTC

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:42:13 UTC

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:43:44 UTC

Party

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:44:04 UTC

Chaos breaks loose

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:44:14 UTC

Frenik gets violent. Kaeliw looks upset at Gas, upset. Grant seems releived. Triadi is gasping over the scandal. Qwilba is pissed

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:45:37 UTC

Gas tries to escape the scene into a lounge, pursued by Frenik and Qwilba

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:46:14 UTC

Lounge

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:46:22 UTC

A full on fight is happening. Things are being thrown.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:46:48 UTC

Gas is not doing great. Grant and Kaeliw end up eventually stepping up to stop this.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:49:54 UTC

Grant talks about respect (a surprising character beat for him!) and Kaeliw is really upset.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:50:19 UTC

Nurses office

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:50:34 UTC

Gas is on a bed having mostly cuts treated by a nurse.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:51:36 UTC

Kaeliw is a mess, worrying about Gas, being mad at the other contestants

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:52:00 UTC

Then she turns on Gas and lashes out, saying that Gas did that on purpose

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:52:30 UTC

Gas is confused

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:52:37 UTC

Kaeliw gets upset and blames Gas for not knowing how the Quouwe works and says everything is messed up now.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:53:06 UTC

Gas waits for Kaeliw to get it out of her system.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:54:03 UTC

Gas asks what is messed up

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:55:41 UTC

Kaeliw says its the pregnancy

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:55:50 UTC

Gas says that she didnt do that.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:56:02 UTC

13/15

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:56:27 UTC

Ellari mentions nausea, blames it on her condition

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 01:58:34 UTC

This means the Quouwe will soon come to an end, as the other parent will be the chosen (as required by the church)

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:00:10 UTC

Library

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:01:17 UTC

Gas is explaining that she thought something was odd when she visited Ellari. That they were nauseous and complaining all night about unwellness.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:03:56 UTC

Kaeliw is starting to get worried again because this is bad for the rules.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:04:22 UTC

Why would Ellari want to hide this?

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:04:39 UTC

Well maybe the real cause is someone who would be problematic?

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:05:50 UTC

Kaeliw is worried it might be a power move, since Gas is from the blush, that people might not take her seriously

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:09:08 UTC

Gas protests this but thinks

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:09:18 UTC

What if they can use this as leverage

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:09:31 UTC

Dining room

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:09:52 UTC

Kaeliw isnt sure her going on another date is a good use of their time but Gas assures her, two birds one stone. Kaeliw gets to keep romancing and they might get info.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:11:02 UTC

Kaeliw finds out that Ellari and Grant go way back. This senator sees them both at parties a lot.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:12:18 UTC

"the people's otp"

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:12:35 UTC

Kaeliw tells him that shes also not really interested btw. but ty for his time etc.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:13:21 UTC

Ellari's bathroom

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:13:48 UTC

They're washing up, clearly from their ritual, when they're startled by a loud knock.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:14:17 UTC

The servent from way earlier, brings Gas in.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:14:57 UTC

Apologies for the suddenness are given.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:15:13 UTC

Ellari's bedroom

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:15:31 UTC

Gas asks what's the plan. Ellari says to raise it? Gas says they know that's not what they mean. Ellari sighs.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:16:24 UTC

Ellari says they like Gas, they really do. Would'nt it be nice? To uplift the outer blush's first candidate? think of all the good they could do, bringing the blush's culture to the city.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:17:25 UTC

Ellari dreams of theater like no other.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:17:43 UTC

They've arranged it all just so. They wont say who the real other parent is.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:18:23 UTC

Gas pretends like she's going along with it.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:19:03 UTC

She says she really has to use the restroom and rushes into Ellari's.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:20:02 UTC

Ellari is upset and bangs on the door asking Gas to be quick. They need their medication in there.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:21:08 UTC

Ellari's bathroom

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:21:20 UTC

Gas pokes around. Finds the creepy charm shrine. Pretends to flush. Says she will come out quick. Grabs the notebook. Turns on the sink. Shoves the book into a pocket she actually has this time, trades it for hers that shes still carrying around. Turns the sink off. Closes the cabinet. Opens the door.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:23:04 UTC

Ellari is not pleased

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:23:28 UTC

Youll have all the time in the world to enjoy free reign of this castle once you're queen.

make the servant more prominent. Put Grant's fall from grace in there somewhere.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:25:17 UTC

Library - Late at night

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:25:45 UTC

Gas is surprised by the grant thing, then reveals the journal.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:26:27 UTC

They open the journal and it's all cursing Grant, stealing his charm.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:26:48 UTC

Kaeliw gets a book on divinities, finds the right one.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:27:25 UTC

Pounding on Grant's door

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:29:33 UTC

He opens the door confused, says they cant come in, he ha private business in there

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:29:53 UTC

They barge in, unwelcome, to find noone in his room?

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:30:23 UTC

He looks away. Kaeliw is shocked. she thought he would have more people in here

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:32:18 UTC

Hes embarrassed but concedes that things have been less than great lately. He claims hes um!! doing it on purpose tho

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:32:48 UTC

Gas says hes being cursed to have less charm.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:33:05 UTC

He goes what?

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:33:13 UTC

Gas presents the notebook and says it's Ellari's

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:33:28 UTC

He's upset (obv)

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:35:38 UTC

In the Garden

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:36:10 UTC

Grant explains that it's actually a servant who's the father. He's pissed that Ellari would complain to him about that and be using him for it.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:37:16 UTC

Turns out this is a trap and Grant + The servant start attacking them with garden tools

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:37:47 UTC

Things get really bad. They want to kill Kaeliw and scare/hit the crap out of Gas. They get pretty far.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:38:45 UTC

Kaeliw is doing really badly, and tells Gas that she realized she was really in love with her.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:39:15 UTC

Joarje arrives with help! It's the guards

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:39:35 UTC

A maid happens to be dusting outside his room.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:42:04 UTC

Outside Grant's room

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:42:19 UTC

Gas's... Palace room?

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:45:37 UTC

She wakes up to servants getting things ready. Its reminiscent of the beginning of the Quouwe.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:46:12 UTC

She asks where Kaeliw is. They say she's at her hotel room getting ready for the ceremony.

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 02:46:46 UTC

The Quouwe, Wedding Ceremony

mrosenb1 — 2024-11-18 03:00:41 UTC
