There’s two things that our Drama Princess actors can’t do yet. They can’t be faithfull to a single person and they can’t quarrel for a moment and make up.<\/p>\n
They are programmed to love<\/strong> (or hate) everyone with equal passion and loving one person very much wouldn’t stop them from loving another very much. Perhaps it should. This only really applies to romantic relationships<\/strong> that imply monogamy<\/strong> in most narratives. Other types of love don’t necessarily require faithfullness. At least not for the sake of believabilty. Seeing someone betray their best friend can be interesting to witness. But betraying your romantic interest is not something that should be done lightly. Unless the actor is just that kind of person. Another thing that is problematic is quarreling<\/strong>. Drama Princess actors can like or dislike each other. And they can build up relationships of both love and hate. But they can’t temporarily have a falling out and then get back together. When they start arguing, their relationship is shot and they can only get it back slowly and with luck. There’s two things that our Drama Princess actors can’t do yet. They can’t be faithfull to a single person and they can’t quarrel for a moment and make up.

\nSo the highest level of intimacy of a relationship should be treated with care. It would make sense if it wouldn’t be eas<\/strong>y for actors to achieve such a relationship with each other. So the chance of doing such interactions should be smaller than doing the others. And when you have reached that point with one character, it should become even harder to reach it with another.
\nFor characters with extreme faithfulness, reaching the highest intimacy with one character, may imply a reduction of that intimacy with another, should it exist. Also, if one actor catches another in the act of betrayal, their relationship should drop instantly if it was very high (this would cause a “Shock”).<\/p>\n
\nQuarelling is a very interesting interaction, though. It’s kind of like rolling the dice<\/strong> on a relationship. If characters start quarreling, the outcome can be one of two things: either they make up and their relationship becomes a lot stronger. Or they don’t and their relationship becomes a lot weaker.
\nSo perhaps “quarrel with me” should be an opportunity<\/strong> offered by a character with a reasonably high level of intimacy. And rather than simply improving the relationship if the Attitude was positive, the system would randomly decide whether the relationship improves or worsens. After which, the characters should express the result by hugging or showing anger.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
