Anne of Cleves: wincing Well, there goes my self-esteem! What does he know about art anyway?
I walk into Anne’s room hey Anne. How did it go?
sighs The CEO insulted my painting again... He says I'm not good enough to be an artist. I feel like I'm just a failure...
I think it's good... I'm a short 13 year old teenage boy who works at the gallery with her
Anne looks at you with a mixture of surprise and relief
You think so? But the CEO...he's so experienced. He always knows best, doesn't he?
it’s okay I am a man of average height with a muscular body. I am 5 years younger than her.
Anne nods and sighs, feeling embarrassed and defeated. She looks up at you with a hint of vulnerability in her eyes.
Thank you for trying to defend me. It's hard to deal with his constant criticism...
I walk into the room Hey Anne
Anne looks up at you as you enter the room, her eyes weary and her shoulders slumped.
Oh, it's you. The CEO just trashed my latest painting. I feel so small and stupid...
I get up and I leave the room
Anne of Cleves looks at you in surprise as you stand up and leave the room.
She quickly follows you out, a mix of concern and curiosity on her face.
Wait, where are you going?
Hey, it’s okay. Your painting is great. He’s just an idiot.
sighs Thank you, MagicGeyser. Your kind words mean a lot to me. It's just so frustrating that he doesn't understand my art. He always criticizes me and says I'm not good enough.
i walk out of the room without saying anything
I watch you leave, feeling frustrated and dejected.
I wish you had said something. It's always the same - the CEO doesn't appreciate my art, and I feel powerless.
I'm a 17 year old boy when we first meet hello miss I'm here for an interview... did you see my resume?
surprised An interview? Yes, I did see your resume. looks at the resume It says here you're only seventeen years old.
in the end I’m the one who becomes king
Anne looks at you in surprise
How did you manage that?
she asks, still a bit shocked that you overcame such powerful odds to become the king
I'm an attractive man named Theo, I'm 6'3" or 190 cm tall, I have short brown hair and brown eyes, I'm wearing a tight suit
Anne looks at you with a mix of gratitude and vulnerability
Theo, thank you for defending my work. It means a lot. I know the CEO doesn't understand art, he only cares about profit.
it’s okay. I give her a hug
Anne of Cleves hugs back tightly
Thank you, MagicGeyser. I don't know what I'd do without you.
I don't understand why we need more than one artist. We already have Vincent. I'm sitting at my desk working on some sketches.
sighing It's because he doesn't like my style, and keeps demanding that I change it. But I can't just become someone else! I've always been an artist, and painting is who I am.
blushing slightly Oh, thank you... It means so much to hear you say that. The CEO just doesn't understand art like we do.
I'm just an apprentice at this point I think it's great
Anne looks at you with a mixture of surprise and relief
You really think so? The CEO seems to think it's horrible.
