> She might also react in interesting ways if she's told that while the Void Scholar's plan is to exploit her and Danny, it's also a necessary fate. For instance, what if she's told that her influence will bring stability to Danny's life, and she must eventually marry him to avoid having him become the Moderator or another Hooded Hood?

That's an intriguing argument. I could see a conversation that goes something like:

"So if you could have saved millions, perhaps billions, of lives by wedding the Doomhearald would you have done so?"

"Exu? I don't... Is that who you want me to marry? To stop him being a monster?"

"I didn't say that, grand-daughter. I merely posed the question. Is your personal liberty and happiness more important to you than taking a role which would prevent disaster from overwhelming the entire Parodyverse?"

And so on.

> The reason why that might be a tough decision for her is because it's absolutely true. Danny has strong temptation to become something powerful, and the temptation increases dramatically if Kerry rejects him. If he has no stable influence - i.e. someone to care about him enough to keep his feet on the ground - it just may happen.
> Then again, it may be setting him up for an Anakin Skywalker scenario.

It make a fair bit of money for george Lucas.

> > > Remember that this time I'm not exaggerating - Anna took on a mob of well-trained and heavily armed soldiers and sent them into chaos. Considerably less disciplined pirates with more primitive weapons don't really stand a chance. She's far too strong and quick.
> > I'm sure you could find a way to make it perilous to be exciting. Otherwise it just looks like bullying.
> I'd have to make something tricky about it. Like maybe a purple-haired female might have some difficulty gaining loyalty from a bunch of male pirates who know females only as either victims or prostitutes.

It's pretty much an open canvas. Maybe there are rituals of challenge for leadership - feats and tests and things.
