I had to write down a few Ascendance of a Bookworm ideas to allow my last SSSS fanfic to continue, but so far only one is resisting my chronic "this is a good beginning, but I have zero idea what to do for the rest of the story" problem.
Things Rozemyne is not allowed to do in the archducal castle and Royal academy:
1. Not allowed to read when I’m supposed to be working.
2. My status is second child of the archduke, not sixth most powerful adult in the duchy.
3. Not allowed to add "in accordance to the prophecy" to the answers I give to questions. If Hartmut likes the idea so much, he can do that himself.
4. Not allowed to name any new product "Get over it".
5. Not allowed to join the former Veronica faction on a whim.
6. Not allowed to join any faction other than the one I’m already part of.
7. This was supposed to be warning about starting my own faction, but it turns out some of my "relatives" are already doing that.
8. Not allowed out of the temple while archdukes of other duchies are visiting.
9. May not call any nobles of higher status than me immoral, untrustworthy, lying, slime, even if I’m right.
10. Must not taunt people from Ahrensbach anymore.
11. Must attempt to not antagonize the Sovereignty’s Knight’s Order
12. Must not tell any noble of higher status than me that I am smarter than they are, especially if it’s true.
13. Not allowed to chew that gum stuff in class, unless I brought enough for everybody.
14. Not allowed to chew that gum stuff in class, even if did bring enough for everybody.
15. I am not authorized to fire nobles of higher status than me.
16. It is better to beg forgiveness than to ask permission, no longer applies to Rozemyne.
17. I am not the Psychological Warfare Mascot. Ferdinand is much more suited to the job, anyway.
18. May not conduct psychological experiments on the rest of the archducal family. The same goes for my "biological" family.
19. Must not start any report with "I recently had an experience I just had to write you about…."
20. Must not challenge anyone of higher status than me to ditter. I don’t even like playing ditter.
21. If the thought of something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it. I am to assume the same for anything that makes the archduke giggle for that long. If it makes Ferdinand giggle, I am to record it into an ordonnanz and send it to the archduke to prove it actually happened.
22. Past lives have absolutely no effect on my status within the nobility.
23. Take that hair stick off.
