Yellow (Stoplight Stepfordization)
Added 2023-08-30 12:00:00 +0000 UTCContinuing our Stoplight Stepfordization series, we have a new protagonist, Eudora, and her own approach to being at Happy Hills Wellness Center.
Whereas Faith was a bit of a gullible sheep who didn't even think twice about the intentions of the Happy Hills nurses, Eudora is... guarded. She's a very careful, quiet, cautious type. Heavy emphasis on cautious, with the stoplight theming. She's a character who won't be caught off guard, who will always analyze the situation she's in, and as a result, is actually very well equipped for resisting Stepfordization. Not perfect, as it's sort of a war of attrition, but she has a leg up on Faith for sure.
Next time... Red!

Ye, she's got a good point in that they tend to focus on people who are either Very Receptive or Very Resistant, but someone who is just passing through with the crowd, never talking or making herself stand out? That's the best chance there is of being left alone to do what you want

2023-08-31 14:06:33 +0000 UTCThanks! With how observant and cautious Eudora is as a character, I couldn't bring myself to show them actually succeeding or failing with her lol. She's Schroeder's Stepford, always existing in an ambiguous state
