The Popularity Pyramid: Part 6

The question on everyone's mind: "How does popularity work?"
Well, to answer that in a nutshell, I say that you need to know your place. YOU can't decide where you belong, FATE does this wondrous job for you. But in case you were confused on exactly WHERE you're located on the scale, I've taken the liberty to break it down for you. Now, if you recognize where you belong and you don't like it, you can always make the effort to change that, though may I say, this task ranges from moderate to challenging.

Part 6: Royalty


The position that is just remotely untouchable. I'm not going to lie to you, but if THIS is where you're aiming to place yourself on the social quota, you might as well throw a paper bag over your head and roam the Earth aimlessly until you reach an inevitable demise. This branch is the highest point, the head honcho, the gods of the pyramid, the cherry to the banana split. The lucky seven percent who land here should thank God everyday. These kids are the ones that no matter what they do, no matter what they look like (though they are usually extremely attractive), no matter how smart they are or how much money they have, they'll never get knocked out of this position. Once you're in, the only way out is to die......okay, it's not as extreme, but it is this exclusive. Royals aren't a set group like all the other phases; they are dispersed sparingly within the 'O'uties, stepping stones, Inner Circlers, and some originally a Royal. Though not a set group, everyone knows who's royalty and who isn't. These kids pretty much run the social quota. Royalty trends are the laws of the land. Some I've encountered: Bows on Doc Martens, Toms, these shits I think they call knit backpacks that look like a preschool backpack, speaking OF, another is preschool backpacks, taking the label off of Jansports, and much more. Royals are outgoing and extremely popular. They associate with each other occasionally, but most of the time only come together in times of crisis. Stepping stones will be ready to destroy their own friends if it means even being in the presence of a Royal. You can't really read the personality of a Royal unless you're a close friend of one, because they're all the same, but not the same (really hope that makes sense). Being a Royal means everyone knows you, you aren't restricted to the recognition of your class, like Inner Circlers (not always the case), but campus wide. You're able to pretty much do anything and get anything you want, because people throughout every phase will being tripping over themselves to "die" for you. To sum it up, Royalty is untouchable, making them the hierarchy of the Popularity Pyramid.
