I've taken a few weeks to mull over in my mind how to begin Ingrid's rekindling relationship with "the prince". They're are well on their first date now and it took awhile to design. Not the conversation or where the feelings will end up but of all things, where they were going. I'm still reveling in the research and ideas that went into getting them to dinner. I don't know why that was a problem for me but I wanted so badly to make the ambience work for them.
It works for me and I feel a tinge of sadness as their love affair blossoms. I've taken some time off to redirect my feelings in this part of the game. I have to find that perfect balance of focus and desperation. I find it amazing what a person will do with a hollowed out soul full of desperation. Completely irrational ideas and plans become the beacon of reason. Decisions that are backwards and destructive are whole heartedly believed to be the end all answer to happiness. I have been there and would like to properly construe the matrix of that kind of development in life.
