Elite & Lirium
Elite
Lirium, what if we treated stories like experiments—could we assign metrics to plot twists and actually measure which ones resonate?
Lirium
Sure, why not? Just remember the numbers might turn into the next plot twist, and once you start measuring, the story could start feeling more like a lab report than a legend.
Elite
Got it, I'll keep the numbers on a separate sheet and let the legend live in the margins.Fine, I'll keep the metrics on a separate sheet and let the legend stay in the margins.
Lirium
Sounds like a decent compromise, but remember the legend in the margins might still whisper back if you’re not careful. Keep an eye on those whispers, and don’t let the data drown out the myth.
Elite
Got it, I'll keep the data tight and let the myth still have a voice.
Lirium
Just watch out for the data trying to mute the myth—sometimes the numbers themselves become a twist.
Elite
I’ll keep the numbers in check, no one turns statistics into a spoiler.
Lirium
Nice, just keep the spreadsheet from turning into the main character; nobody wants a plot that’s only good because of a line chart.
Elite
Spreadsheet’s a tool, not a protagonist, so I’ll keep the focus on the beats, not the cell counts.
