On her journal title. Modern AU!Game of Thrones Cersei

...Do you really think that a Simpson's quote is integrating with anybody? There's quite a bit they do teach you at Harvard Law School. One of which is how to deal with idiots like you who think that simpsons quotes in high places are funny when you're trying to make an important impression.

...Well? I'm here. And Despite the "She's basically Sarah Palin" comments I'm not going to call anybody and hit you. Bring me my children. And my brother. I'm nothing like Sarah Palin.

...I'd be much more effective.

[Yes, please keep complementing her it is making her life. She nods eagerly.] Yes, Mrs. Lannister. That's why I want to go to Yale, for their conservatory program. I love doing both. I'm auditioning for the musical next week. I'm so nervous, it's my last chance to make a really great impression before high-school.

[firstladylion]

[Shoulder squeeze] Dear Girl, then I'll cross my fingers. If you get that lead, why-I might come.

[unspoken. might bring guests]

[fullofsongs]

[Oh my god she is actually freaking out internally by trying very very hard to hide it because it's not cool to freak out.] Really? I'm going to try so hard, you have no idea. I mean, not just because you're coming, but, y'know, because I really want the role. We're doing Cinderella, y'know, Rogers and Hammerstein? I've been practicing for months.

[firstladylion]

You would be a perfect Cinderella! And I have to confess I've never seen it. Is it the usual story? A girl standing out against her two...step sisters?

[fullofsongs]

[She beams.] Well, it's not the Disney version, but yep! And her ugly step-mother. It's wonderful. A total classic.

[firstladylion]

...That's right. I remember. You know how the original story ended right? It's a terribly sad tale.

[fullofsongs]

She marries the prince and lives happily ever after. [No one gave her the original edition of The Brother's Grimm. Just watered down Disney versions.] How is that sad?

[firstladylion]

[Her voice trails off.] ...In the original story, she marries the prince and lives happily ever after, but her two step-sisters are very, very unhappy.

[fullofsongs]

Of course they are. They don't get to marry the prince. I mean, I'd be pretty unhappy if Arya got to marry the prince and I didn't. Not that Arya would even be looked at twice by a prince. [Sansa, sweetheart, you're missing the point.]

[firstladylion]

...Well of course.

[Cersei has the slightest calculating look on her face. Ever so slight.] You have to be careful though. Women can be dangerous if they're denied the opportunity-to marry the prince.

so to speak.

[fullofsongs]

Well, yeah. In the Disney version, the Step Mother locks Cinderella in her bathroom so she can't go try on the slipper. And from the drama that goes on at school over guys, [She gives Cersei a knowing look, like she knows what goes on in eighth grade] I totally believe it, too. I mean, okay, we're talking football stars instead of princes, but same thing, middle school royalty, right? [Oh god she's babbling Cersei probably hates her now.]
