Lady [lay-dee]: a woman who is refined, polite, and well-spoken
Being a proper lady has always been a part of the education of noble girl, Dorothea Fielyer. She was the type of young lady a governess would dream to have as a pupil. A jack-of-all-trades, particularly in dance, art, socializing, and various other lady-like behaviors excluding her interest in combat. However, Dorothea is acute to the situation of which she lives. The world does not revolve around the sun, but around a girl of similar age to her, Melissa Vonsbourough.
Rather than vainly attempting to overthrow Melissa, she puts rules upon herself to live a quiet life away from the ridiculousness of Melissa and her boy toys in the form of powerful members of the aristocracy.
1) If put into a situation in which you cannot avoid nor politely ignore them, converse briskly before escaping.
2) If confronted with Melissa's ire or tears, common sense is the best way to escape. Keep aloof and ignore any if all provocation.
3) Should her 'gentlemen' attempt to approach you, be cordial but not too cordial. Ignore any attempted romantic gestures.
4) If another lady is caught up in the drama, choose to ignore or help her depending on circumstances.
Dorothea records her findings and experiences in hope to guide other girls caught in her situation to a safe life. Properly named, 'The Lady's Guide To Living In A Mary Sue's World', after hearing of the trope of a close acquaintance who was an avid reader.
Hopefully, it won't be written in vain.
