Hi, could I ask you a favor?

It's Caroline Forbes, by the way!

Well, Caroline Forbes-Salvatore now but still Caroline, from the Important Vampire Council.

[pikuni]

I think this means congratulations, yes? On the name change.

What is the favor?

[highlyemotional]

Yes, thank you!

I'm pretty notoriously a control freak. Klaus was teasing me this year because I color code my New Year's resolutions. I stress clean! I got a quest from the house to move up a tier that says I need a gold tier resident to "orchestrate chaos around [me] for 21 days" and I'm not allowed to fix any of it.

[pikuni]

The things we are being asked to do become stranger by the day, I think. This one is at least very tame.

For me, obviously. For you, I think torture? Is it any kind of chaos?

[highlyemotional]

It's my recurring nightmare, yeah.

This is the brief they sent me:

CHALLENGE: You need control — everything organized, planned, perfect. Lose it completely. Choose one Gold tier resident to orchestrate chaos around you for 21 days. They'll change your schedule randomly, hide your belongings, give you contradicting orders, rearrange your space, disrupt your routines. You cannot fix it, organize it, or take control back. No compulsion allowed. Just exist in the mess. Let the cameras catch every anxious breakdown. Prove Caroline Forbes can survive when nothing goes according to plan.

[pikuni]

If I am very mean to you, will you forgive me at the end of it?

[highlyemotional]

Of course.

If I wanted to stay annoyed I would have picked that guy playing Wonderwall on the network.

[pikuni]

We have to discourage him from more performances.

I will do it. I will be very annoying, but if I am going too far you should have a signal, yes? Some unseen thing I will know.

[highlyemotional]

Isn't that cheating?

[pikuni]

Only if we're caught :-)

[highlyemotional]

I'll bring you bonbons if I start spiraling out too far. No one can say I shouldn't serve someone in the gold tier.

[ and bonbons remind her of bonnie, who good stab reminds her of. ]

[pikuni]

Very clever. It will be our little secret :-)

[highlyemotional]

Thank you for this.

[ thank you for the psychological torture! ]

You can start tomorrow 🧡
