The Tale of the Princess Out of Reach [video; anon by proxy]
[A blank wall. Or a backdrop. Suddenly, the shadow of a girl with a jaunty ponytail, wearing a short skirt and puff-sleeve blouse, marches into view.]
Extra! Extra!
[And now there are three of them on stage. The complete Kashira Players troupe. The one with the giant hair bow, A-ko, is dressed as a princess and high above the other two, leaning out of a window.]
Oh, won't someone let me out of this tower?
[B-ko, the one with braided pigtails, is dressed as a prince with crown and poofy pants and all. She forms a heroic pose.]
Never fear! I shall use my enchanted rope to reach the top of the tower and set you free!
[And the familiar shadow with the ponytail, C-ko, steps forward as a cackling hunchback witch. She holds up a piece of rope.]
No, you won't! For I have stolen your rope!
[Princess A-ko clasps her hands.]
Oh no!
[B-ko resumes her princely stance.]
Never fear! I shall use my enchanted ladder to reach the top of the tower and set you free!
[Witch C-ko pulls a ladder out of nowhere.]
No, you won't! For I have stolen your ladder!
[Princess A-ko puts a hand to her forehead.]
Oh no!
[B-ko's cape flutters in the breeze.]
Never fear! I shall use my enchanted pogo stick to reach the top of the tower and set you free!
[Witch C-ko is now bouncing on the pogo stick.]
No, you won't! For I have stolen your pogo stick!
[Princess A-ko leans further out the window.]
You horrible witch! Who are you?
[Still bouncing, C-ko pulls off her witch's cloak to reveal a princess' dress.]
Didn't you know? I'm your younger sister!
[Gasp! Horror from Princess A-ko.]
But why would you betray me like this? Are you trying to steal my prince away from me?
[Bounce bounce bounce.]
You can keep the prince for yourself. His toys are much more fun!
[Prince B-ko looks from C-ko to the tower.]
Could you at least give me a boost up?

[PERMAVID I mean]
I'm the prince! Can't you see?

DON'T WORRY I'm not taking time out of more important projects to work on this but I had a quick algorithm cross-reference these weirdos' last posts against other events. I can't tell which princess is supposed to be our porter but...that's what the program spat out as a likelihood.

The algorithm was only 68% positive anyway. Not solid.
