That's true, we don't pick on her. Heaven forbid we should actually do something to counter her... well I don't know what to call it really... just her I guess. I sometimes feel bad that we don't do more... that in the name of social decency, we pretend to be complacent and pretend to do the princesses biddings... that we don't downright revolt in the face of tyranny as I have always imagined I would, when faced with it. But then I suppose a quiet sort of revolt is better for these situations than downright mutiny... I suppose.
