Well, do what I recently did! I had a decision to make and was playing Fallen London, so I said 'if I win this one, I'll do one thing, but if I lose, I'll do the other thing'. And it was a good choice. Like coin-flipping.
Ah, and so you can. And apparently I can to, with enough of a prodding.
Anyway! Hm.... Well, I don't care who I play, actually! Whomever you'd prefer, I guess. I could be a selfish prince cursed to hideousness and forced to be seen by humanity, thus embarrassed eternally, or the kind, sweet human that can look past such appearances and try to make the capture feel as welcome as possible. Ah, see? I can be either one!
Actually, I kind of thought about something else as soon as I sent that... Such as a true beast living alone on a mountain by the sea, going mad in its desire to surround itself with oddities and amazement that it begins collecting things, humans and otherwise, which he neglects without realizing...
But it sounds interesting, yours. And it sounds like a real fairy tale, one that can have as many cliches and as much sappy dialogue as we like because why not?
Um, I don't know...! I... I mean, both sound good, really... Have you been wanting to do one specifically? Or one over the other? Somewhere? Flip a coin...!
