Catarina Claes Gets Into Trouble, Inclusion Ensues
I think often about what Anne must have inwardly thought about her young charge. Catarina Claes, an otome game villainess in one life and a reincarnated high school girl in another life, suffered a pivotal mishap in childhood that sent her down two wildly differing paths. She took a spill over an uneven bit of walkway and hit her head, leaving her with a scar on her forehead. In the first path, she doubled down on her spoiled, noble upbringing and used it as an excuse to manipulate Prince Geordo to an arranged marriage with promising benefits for her, while at the same time sending her down the route of a cruel, antagonistic villainess when she met the otome game protagonist, Maria Campbell. This was the path an unnamed high school girl saw while playing the otome game Fortune Lover, an obsession that inadvertently led to her death in a traffic accident at age 17. She is reborn as Catarina Claes, and upon waking after hitting her head, she was flooded with memories of her past life and the beloved otome game. In the game, Catarina’s life ended early - as her own high school life had - in either death or exile, and she was determined to not let it happen again. Her internal thoughts distracted her to the point Prince Geordo became concerned and decided to take responsibility by proposing marriage, to which Catarina agreed without thinking, only to moments later realize she’d taken the first step on one of Catarina’s potential bad endings.

What's Wrong With Your Dog?
“What is wrong with your dog?” I kind of knew the question was coming. Gideon and I had been standing on the beach, watching a grizzled, sturdy gentleman throw a stick into the lapping waves of Lake Superior, only to have his beautiful white pitbull crash through the waves and swim out to joyfully retrieve it. She shook water in all directions as she reached the sand and dropped the stick, and she would occasionally glance at me and Gideon as if to ask if we wanted to play.
