An imperial breakthrough
Caesar Inu
He tried honesty. The citrus took it personally.
The Opening
A private breakthrough became a public maintenance problem before the morning audience had finished.
One Small Admission
He confessed the oranges were never ceremonial.
First Strip Falls
A curl of peel landed beside the throne.
Audience Continues
No senator acknowledged the growing citrus perimeter.
Marble Disappears
By dusk, the floor had become entirely orange.
Imperial Solution
Caesar declared the mess a protective border.
Court Wisdom
He opened up; the oranges did the rest.
Imperial Habits
His rule is simple: sincerity first, cleanup delegated, eye contact strictly optional.
Peels Deliberately
Each orange gets one continuous strip and a formal witness.
Never Looks Down
The floor is beneath both notice and imperial concern.
Blames the Senate
Every sticky sandal receives a constitutional explanation.
The floor remains an internal matter.
