So, I didn't thought about this too much, but here goes my self insert princess, because why not (and this post encurage me to do this).
It's still work in progress, so there will be many things I'm still not sure about.
Name will be something like Therapist/The Talker (but with the idea I have, Therapist fits better. Maybe The Talker would be another branch? Hmmm.)
You get her, by asking as many questions as you can. To everyone. To Narrator, to Princess. You need to talk as much as you can and encurage veryone to talking. But also you need to be unsure what to do. Choosing diffrent answers, showing that you still didn't make your mind. I think taking the knife fits better with that (maybe here will be branching for The Talker? I will think about it). Not sure if it ends similar to Damsel (but without such panic from Princess) or Prisoner (but with Princess not being as cold).
Not sure also about the voice, but maybe something like Voice Of The Curious (as you were trying to learn everything you could in first chapter). It iritates Narrator by questioning everything he says or is done with sooo maaanyyy questions! Every answer leads for them to another question.
When you get into a cabin, it looks really simple but cozy. With curtains in windows, maybe even a rug on the floor? Door are wooden, like the stairs which looks like there is fewer of them than before.
Therapist has glasses, her long hair made into a braid. She has much simpler dress and looks at you with a smile. She even starts that she is happy you make it into your next visit. She asks you many questions (which angers the Narrator) and those are mostly questions about you, what is your nature, who do you think you are. If you took a knife she asks you to leave it as you can't have any weapons on yourself.
Answering takes you to a branch where by understand you better, you also understand princess better and this whole place, showing hidden door in the basement (probably it would be showed by explroing and by the Voice Of The Curious asking something like "What's this in a corner"). You both leave.
The other option is not answering Therapist questions and just asking questions back. Making it so the Princess becomes more unstable with every word and in the end using her glasses (shatering them into pieces) to commit suicide, which would take you to Chapter 3, but I'm not sure how it could look like.
Not dropping the knife would let to impass, because Therapist refuses to talk to you if you have a weapon on yourself and you refuse to drop it. Which makes you wait, wait and wait. Not sure if it would be like in Prisoner where you trap yourself in chains, but maybe something similar.
Slay the princess is the exact kinda game where all of the fans should be making their own princesssonas and longquietsonas and self inserts and oc aus. this game is the kinda story meant to be reshaped and remolded and made into your own visage and we should be doing that. what is your version of the princess, what road do you take to get them, what does your long quiet look like, how perfectly do your ocs fit into the themes of this game? tell me, tell me, tell me!!!!
I’ve invented a new line of princesses: The Character, followed by The Jester. This occurs essentially if you play up the linear storyline nature of the situation, acknowledging that you’ve both been placed into roles and having a little fun with it. The Character’s counterpart is The Voice of the Dramatic. And yes, The Jester has broken her chain. She has deus ex machina power. She’s ascended to the level of plot device. You should be afraid.
id est, I made a Shakespearean/theatre path.
Transcript of the description in the top left (the storyline, how you get here, a few details, etc) is below the cut, in case that makes it easier to read. I didn’t make any edits.
The Voice of the Dramatic | The Character | The Jester |
Ch1 You do a lot of talking and a lot of messing around, overly dramatic, picking some funnier options. You’re witty and she responds positively to it, albeit a bit confused. It ends up a little Shakespearean in nature and you kill each other mutually, as a very strange compromise.
Ch2 The Dramatic is way too excited for this. He’s absolutely Shakespearean in wit and he’s leaping at the chance to go banter with this princess. Princess is acting rather like she’s in a play— y’know, like an actor? Doing a character? This is the most playful chapter of all of them, just having a jolly good time. You free her in character, then she tricks you in character and kills you in character and… you die in character. Whoops.
Ch3 We get the Cheated, because hey, we were having FUN here, and you KILLED us, that’s kind of RUDE. The princess/jester is wearing a silly hat but also has WAAAY too much power. She plays games with you for your life. She makes tons of jokes. It’s still funny, Dramatic is still highly amused and having fun, but… it’s also way scary now. The basement looks like a royal court, but in a stage kind of way?
