Alice in "WELL, SHIT"land

"Ah, please allow me to rely on you, then."[break][break] 
 As the first person to run into Ruler, please be so kind as to become great friends. Well, perhaps not so great friends, but at the very least a player Ruler can look to for a familiar face, and someone he knows won't just turn him aside.[break]
 Ii is two years her elder, so he likely won't be one of her classmates, but it's possible he's her senpai at school. Ii himself shouldn't have enough of a reputation for her to know him, but he has heterochromia which makes him stand out (and bullied a little when he was younger).[break]
 The two don't necessarily need to know about each other, but if either are given an opportunity to talk about school, they might find they go to the exact same school.[break]
 As a senpai, he's rather approachable, and acquiesces to any requests made of him. So long as it is within his power to do, of course.[break]
 He favours stealing away to the courtyard and finding a quiet spot to eat lunch (having found one behind the gym supplies shed), and if Alice has ever sought one it's possible she ran into him.[break]
 But in-game, Prince can be Ruler's senpai and teach a non-gamer all about the game. I would be very pleased if Prince could also become Ruler's confidant whenever he needs advice on quests, or game mechanics.

"You, um, y'looked a lot older when we first met. Manlier, too."[break][break] 
 I think Ii is the sort of kid who'd stare at the foreign kid from the window or something, and quietly snort about how being a rich, stuck-up foreigner got her all sorts of attention.[break]
 So the two sort of lived in different worlds, with Ii being able to get his alone time, and Alice probably barely even being aware he existed, unless someone had talked about his eyes or one of her 'friends' had fallen madly in love with Ii-kun's dashing good looks.[break]
 That was a joke.[break]
 I think the post-announcement dynamic would completely change, anyway. Ruler'd be much more aware that he's not Ruler anymore, but that everyone can plainly see who he really is.[break]
 In that sense, relying on a shortstack girl would probably hurt his pride somehow, haha... ha. But as schoolmates, he'd stick by her at least, and probably awkwardly offer help if she'd need some.[break]
 He'd probably try to get her to stop crying, though. Ruler doesn't do well with crying. How- what is- why─?! The world's worst cheerer-upper, if that's even a term, will make his appearance.[break]
 Ruler'd probably comment on the complete mistmatch between her avatar and her, though. It's okay, she can comment on how he pretended to be old, when he's just a brat.[break]
 EDIT: I made some changes to personality, retconning Ii to be more sociable, but still he goes home alone and never hangs out. It shouldn't change overly much, but Prince might have caught sight of him being rowdy with classmates, or something similar. Since his friendships are pretty superficial, it changes not much about him, but I think this makes him a bit more approachable.
