Obey the Silence In Chains of Empire
A pretty cage
Your dear author ☺️
Hi my cutie pies 😘😚
Your dear author ☺️
Hope you all are well 🙏
Your dear author ☺️
So let's continue the story 😁
Clara
Good morning, sweetheart. Your notes are ready on the table.
I made your favorite—cheese toast with tomato soup 🍅💛
Elise/FL
Thank you… you didn’t have to—
😳
Clara
Of course I did. You’re family now.☺️
Elise/FL
💭💭
They never scolded me.
Never raised their voice.
Even when I broke a glass or overslept.
No lectures.
Just smiles.
Always… gentle.
Elise/FL
💭💭
It should’ve felt safe.
But sometimes it felt like I was glass too—
pretty, polished... and fragile.
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
I’ve uploaded your next lesson to the tablet.
And remember—no distractions.
Stay focused, Elise.
My phone worked… sort of.
No social media.
No calls.
No messages except from them.
Doctor said it was for my “focus.”
I told myself he was right.
That I didn’t need anything else.
Elise/FL
💭💭
But sometimes...
I just wanted to hear a real noise.
Even a stupid meme
Whatever 😼 my life is going easy
I don’t remember the last time I went outside.
The real outside.
The one with loud noises, weird smells, and people who don’t know my name.
Here, everything is... controlled.
Polite.
Soft.
[Scene: Breakfast – Clara brings food to Elise's room]
Clara
Good morning, sweetheart 💛
I brought your breakfast here. You looked so cozy sleeping.
Elise/FL
Thanks…
But you didn’t have to. I could’ve come down.
Clara
Oh, I know.
But why should you?
You deserve to rest.
Elise/FL
💭💭
That’s the thing.
Every little thing I could do for myself—
they’ve already done.
Without asking.
Without letting me decide.
[Scene: Elise accidentally drops a book]
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
(Rushing in)
Are you hurt?! Did it fall on your foot?😟
Elise/FL
...It’s just paper, Father 😐
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
Still. You could’ve gotten a paper cut.
Let me get that for you.
Elise/FL
💭💭
What was that 😑
[Scene: Elise is offered something new]
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
Would you like to try a new course in architecture? Or art history?
Elise/FL
...I don’t know. You choose.
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
(smiling):
You’ve earned the right to choose, Elise.
Elise/FL
(quiet):
Then maybe I’d like to just... not decide.
Clara
"Elise, your room’s a mess."
Elise/FL
(dead serious):
"It's not a mess. It's a creative ecosystem."
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
"What ecosystem has three empty hot chocolate mugs and a screwdriver in the bed?"😂😂
Elise/FL
(muttering):
"A genius one."
(She still gets her favorite snack five minutes later, because no one stays mad at her for long.)
She still studying from home
Everything she needs is already present before she asked
By this behaviour she becomes somewhat like to a brat 😜
Clara
“Elise, get up. It’s 10 AM.”
Elise/FL
(under blanket):
“No. It’s illegal to wake me before I’m emotionally stable.”
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
“You said that yesterday.”
Elise/FL
(groans):
“Yesterday was hard. I blinked too much.”
Throws pillow like a drama queen. Flips hair. Then asks for pancakes with sprinkles.✌️
She is getting mischievious but yet she felt something missing
No doubt doctor and clara treats her nicely even more overprotective towards her still she found that they are trying not to get attached by her.
Like they feared it might what happened if they attach with her
This behaviour also make her lonely and mischievious
She is not allowed outside so she is a little introverted also
Still she found herself enjoying opening a toaster, other equipments because it's fun and she is curious to know what inside it
Elise/FL
You didn’t hear me, Clara. I said no soup today.😤
Clara
You said that yesterday too.
You haven’t eaten anything warm in two days, Elise.
Elise/FL
Maybe I like starving dramatically 🤷♀️
Adds to the atmosphere of being imprisoned 🏰😤
Clara
It’s cold outside. And you’ve been coughing.
Elise/FL
…
Why are you being nice again?
Elise/FL
You make soup. Fold my clothes. Check my meds.
But you never sit with me. You just… leave.
Clara
I’m trying not to overstep, Elise.
Elise/FL
You already live here. Pretty sure it’s too late for that 🙄
…Just bring the soup.
Clara
Bringing it now.
And staying. If that’s okay.
Elise/FL
Hey.
Sensor triggered again. Can’t fix it.
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
Did you use that screwdriver I gave you?
Elise/FL
Maybe I used it to carve your name into the wall 🫠🔧
Guess you’ll have to come see.
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
Elise…
Elise/FL
I’m joking. Kind of.
Can you just… come check it?
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
I’ll be there in 10 minutes.
Elise/FL
Not like I’m busy 🙃
Just sitting in a house I don’t belong in, studying things I’ll never use.
Totally fine.
Totally normal.
🙂
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
You do belong here.
Don’t talk like that.
Elise/FL
Then maybe act like you mean it sometimes.
😶
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
😮💨
similarly she is creating mess out of curiosity and boredom
Clara
Elise…
What did you do to the toaster? 😐
Elise/FL
I was improving it 😇
Now it beeps in Morse code when the toast’s ready 😎
Elise/FL
Okay that part was unintentional.
Science has casualties 😤
Clara
Please don’t touch the kitchen appliances again.
Elise/FL
Then put a lock on them 🔒
Orrr admit you’re curious what I’ll do next 😏
Clara
...
I’m unplugging the coffee machine.
Elise/FL
NO 😭 I was working on that next!!
You’re ruining my research arc 💔
Actually she knows it makes them annoy
And yes she wants them to get annoy
To talk to her with connection...with no over politeness
Too careful words as if she might break if they yell.....or just they don't want to attach, don't want to show emotions to her.
(Doctor returns home after a hospital shift)
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
Why is the fridge… beeping?
Elise/FL
I installed a motion detector + temp sensor combo.
Now it yells if you open it for too long 😌
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
Why?
Elise/FL
Because Clara keeps leaving it open. This is justice 😤
Also… I was bored.
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
There are books. Games. A TV.
Elise/FL
Yeah but the toaster doesn’t judge me.
And it listens.
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
Elise…
Elise/FL
You left again today.
Didn’t even say goodbye this time.
Maxwell/FL's adopted father
I didn’t want to wake you.
Elise/FL
...I was already awake.
I just didn’t say anything.
Whatever time passes and her studies continue as ever inside from home
She even questioned that why she can't go to campus like others
But they said it's for her safety, protection or whatever
Elise/FL
(whisper to herself)
And now even I had everything I sometimes feels that it's just a preety cage
