OHHHHH MY GODDD YESS 😭 I literally just got through my first play through and I just couldn’t enjoy the game properly bcs I thought everyone was just so fucking insufferably unreasonable???? I couldn’t even properly support Lucettes changes bcs I thought her punishment was so fucking ridiculous for what she’s done and gone through and I just straight forwarded HATEDDD Delora to the point I just wanted to dig my heels and have Lucette get worse or switch sides at some points (not that her mother and her supporters would treat Lucette better I just HATE the fact the ���good teachers” were just fucking terrible in my eyes)

Cinderella Phenomenon: Lucette Was Wrongfully Cursed

So, this might be a hot take on the game since Lucette is portrayed to be this rude person that needs to be taught “kindness” so she doesn’t become a “tyrant and cruel ruler”, at least that is what everyone expects her to be. At least in the game.

Lucette never once came across as a really rude or mean person to me. Maybe she was a bit blunt when the more polite thing to do would be to be quiet, but she didn’t actually do anything wrong.

Let’s start off with Lucette’s supposed “wrongdoings”. One thing that is brought up in the game is that she fired Annice. The characters say she was wrong to do such a thing, but that’s false. From Lucette’s perspective Annice tore the dress of one of her dolls and failed to do her job. So, she fired her, Annice didn’t correct that wrong assumption and inform Lucette it was actually a crow that tore it.

Delora knows Lucette thinks that Annice tore the dress, and fired her for it, but thinks Lucette is in the wrong for that. Realistically, if someone breaks (rips) the belongings of the Crown Princess, they would probably get a worse punishment than just being fired. And all Lucette did was fire some that she thought failed their job, so she wasn’t wrong for that. It was wrong for people to think she should just let it go when that’s the normal reaction for a noble.

Lucette was also seen as being in the wrong for not being nice to her new family, but that’s expecting way too much from her. The King barely ever spent time with her even when he finally had the opportunity and just brought in this entirely new family without warning. Then he expects Lucette to treat them with kindness even though he treats them with much more kindness than he has ever treated her with, from her perspective replacing her mother who did no wrong, and still barely gives her any emotional support or attention. She’s just expected to accept it. Most teenagers would get mad and be upset if something like this happened.

That’s not even touching on the fact that you can actively tell the King sees Lucette as a mini version of her mother and that’s probably why he’s neglecting his own child. But he’s never actually properly called out by anyone but Lucette. And he’s not the only one. Everyone always sees her mother before they see Lucette, and because of that they treat her horribly for something that she hasn’t even done. It’s normal for her not to want to interact with others when she knows they are constantly talking behind her back. She shouldn’t be expected to treat them kindly when they can’t treat her with any respect.

That’s the entire reason Delora curses her. Even with the year that she spends with Lucette, or just about, even after Lucette confesses all her troubles to her, she only ever sees Lucette as a mini version of her mother. She expects Lucette to be this super kind person when that’s not something anyone really has the right to ask of Lucette considering how most people treat her.

And it doesn’t help that no one ever told Lucette who her mother actually was. Most people just assumed she knew who she was and that’s why they acted so bothered when she defended her mother at times. Well, either assumed, expected, or acted like she knew. But there’s a good portion of the cast that should know that Lucette didn’t truly know who her mother was. The King and Delora in particular.

That’s not to say Lucette can’t be a tad too blunt or harsh to people that are kind to her. But considering how most people treat her, it’s no wonder she thinks people are just faking it to get at her.

It’s kinda like the whole thing with Emelaigne. Emelaigne did nothing wrong, but besides being blunt and a little harsher that absolutely necessary, Lucette did nothing wrong when interacting with her. Everyone kept pushing Emelaigne on to her, while they all talked behind her back about how Emelaigne would make a better Crown Princess. And the King, who no doubt heard this, did nothing to correct it or ease any potential worries Lucette might have. 

Then there’s the whole thing with Lucette’s childhood. Not touching on how Lucette’s mother emotionally manipulated and abused her as well as kept her isolated, people weren’t even kind to Lucette then. The one person that was, was Waltz. And Lucette didn’t remember him.

But from bits that we are shown, children did actively take advantage of Lucette when she was younger. They would call her cruel and pick on her when she didn’t do what they wanted. Which Lucette’s mother used to manipulate her.

Point being, no one ever gave Lucette a chance to be anyone but a mini version of her mother. They never saw Lucette. Which is why when Lucette didn’t act super sweet to them, they assumed the worse. The only one I can say actively gave her a chance to just be with the knowledge of who she was, was Rumpel who had lost his memories, Parfait, Emelaigne, Ophelia, Fritz, and Waltz. I’m not including Delora, because after being with Lucette for a year she should have realized Lucette was never a bad person. The King was just a horrible father. I’m also not including Karma, because even though his route was amazing, he outright admitted to planning on taking advantage of Lucette from the start and getting her to break his curse. Just not in the way it happened in his route.

Of course, with all this said, I still love the game to pieces. It has interesting lore and is well crafted. I understand they couldn’t make Lucette pure evil because she was the protagonist, but I just never felt like she deserved the punishment she got.

Kimora Jatari

Kimora is only half rhodolitian since her mother is from malachite a historical sovereign state but she was born in rhodolite. Her mother worked for me akatsuki after leaving malachite a role which kimora took up after her mother passed. Besides working at the bookstore she has a contract as a dancer at Rhodolites Florazaire opera house.

The role of belle is an honor and duty (and ego stroke) kimora is extremely greatful for even if it gets in her way of rehearsal or reading all day. Acting with grace and elegance like a real member of the royal court comes easy to her thanks to her time in the royal opera house. The worse part is having to treat those of higher status with respect since she believes respect is given through actions not birth titles. She also wishes for many of the princes to shove it up theirs.

Bonus: relationships + Yves

Yves is practically the backbone of funding art programs in rhodolite. Many of the other princes like nokto do help but yves goes down as the major contributor and everyone who works in the arts knows and practically worships the ground he walks in, kimora is no different. she would’ve never been about to dance professionally without yves programs
