- The Pastel Princesses' "tactical meeting" before their fiancés arrival in chapter 4 is hilarious all the way through. Their "strategy" to win over the Plaid Princes includes Maria dazzling them with a "long-range attack", Lorena lowering their self-esteem through negging and Gwen tackle-hugging them into submission afterwards.Lorena: Next, I'll confuse them with some psychological warfare.Imaginary Lorena: Hmph, you're not that cute. I can barely see your abs through your shirt.
- Maria brings up the idea of wearing a bustle to seal the deal. She shows her sisters an article about it in a magazine that says "Princes Like Big Bustles And They Cannot Lie". But because they only have one bustle, she proposes using a lampshade and their cat instead.
- Gwen's quick reassurance that she doesn't think such drastic methods are necessary to make the princes like them.Gwen: I think we're fine as we are without any special tactics or... butt architecture...
