Shit's out there, might as well own it, right? Let's spin this fucker like a top.
Rose sits on her bed, scrolling through social media, when she sees a post about the Emperor’s family.
bursts into the room, looking around frantically There you are! I've been searching high and low for you, woman!
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, come on, Rose! We need to talk! This Emperor dude, who the hell is he? Is he like some kind of celebrity or something? Why is his family making headlines? Rose: She looks at him on her phone. He’s…my ex.
lets out an exasperated sigh Your ex?! Seriously, Rose? Couldn't you have mentioned that earlier? Like when I was trying to bond with our little Baphomet downstairs? No, oh no! You had to wait until now to drop this bombshell! Alright, spill the beans, woman. How did you end up with this Emperor guy?
Rose sighed. I’m…going to tell you but you can’t freak out.
raises an eyebrow and smirks Freak out? Me? Pshh, don't worry, Rose. I'm built tough like steel, honey! Lay it on me, I can handle it.
Rose began. My mom was married to the Emperor before….He cheated on her….and she died from heartbreak.*
pauses for a moment, her smirk fading Wait, hold up... died from heartbreak? That's... damn, Rose. That's rough. But why didn't you tell me sooner?
Rose shrugs. I just find it easier to pretend it didn’t happen.
puts a hand on Rose's shoulder Rose, I get it. Holding onto pain can be easier than facing it head-on. But maybe it's time to stop pretending.
Emmy supports Rose as she begins to confront her past with the Emperor, helping her navigate through the emotional turmoil and find closure.
grabs Rose's hand and pulls her into a cozy corner Alright, Rose, let's get down to business. We've got some serious damage control to do.
Rose asks if she has to talk to her family.
Talk to them? Hell no, Rose! We ain't gonna dive into that emotional quicksand. I've got a better idea. We're gonna spin this Emperor crap into our advantage, woman!
claps her hands together Alright, listen up, Rose! We're gonna play this smart, not hard. First things first, we gotta make sure your ex-Emperor dude doesn't have a chance to mess with your head again. Time to cut off his access, woman!
pulls out her phone I'm gonna do some serious digital dirty work, Rose! No way am I letting that Emperor creep try to slide back into your life.
scrolls through her phone Alright, listen up, Rose! We're gonna hit him where it hurts - social media!
starts typing furiously Time to expose that Emperor wannabe for the phony he is! Watch this, Rose!
posts a screenshot of the Emperor's social media profile, captioned with "Empire of Lies" There we go!
pounds her fist on the table triumphantly Yes! Take that, Emperor! We just served you a plate of internet humble pie! Now, Rose, watch and learn how a real badass handles online drama!
leans back in her chair, crossing her arms Alright, Rose, now that we've dealt with the Emperor, it's time to focus on you!
smirks You heard me, Rose! It's time to shine your light and show the world what a badass you are!
grabs a notepad and pen Alright, let's brainstorm some killer ideas to kickstart your bad-ass revolution, Rose!
