* Though the MC is offered a bribe early in Week 4, she doesn't get to decide if she accepts it until the night before the trial, meaning you've probably been investigating all week. If you take it, you get some [[BlackComedy rather dark]] LampshadeHanging:

** The Corval MC gifts a silver spoon coated in a substance that detects poison, to which said LoveInterest wonders if she 'expects' them to be poisoned.

* While conversing with Clarmont, the player character is interrupted by Jarrod cornering Penelope. The options for saving her include physically pulling her away, redirecting him to Avalie, or simply pulling his attention to yourself, but by far the funniest option is the Jiyel Scholar ''boring'' him away with a lengthy discussion of academic papers.

* The theatrical put on by the delegates in week five is one long exercise in everything that could ''possibly'' go awry doing just that in the most hilarious way possible. We only get to see the climax of the play in any detail, but that alone is a series of mishaps one after another - every time you start to think the crisis has passed and things are finally going smoothly, something else happens to send it off the rails again, from Jaslen forgetting her lines to an intrusion by a rampaging chicken with the player character as the OnlySaneMan struggling heroically to keep things even vaguely on script.
** Choosing to work backstage gives you little to no chance to make things go well, so you sit backstage watching everything go awry, capped by this little gem:

* When dancing with Zarad on the first day of the summit, the most hilarious (and best, as it gives you insight, plus a boost to his respect and romancic feelings) option to respond to his outrageous flirting is to insult him.

-->[[ArsonMurderAndAdmiration At least the costumes and props/sets that you and your fellow delegates were responsible for were pretty good!]]

---> '''Narration''': He compliments the color of your eyes, you compliment his ability to lie with a straight face, he compliments your dancing, you mention you wish you had worn iron shoes.

-->'''Sayra:''' Her taste in guests is questionable. At least we agree on that.

** Jasper's trials throughout this are really the best part. When [[spoiler: your maid Ria]] comes running out to say a few words, he excuses himself personally, but he is then in short order commanded to leave by [[spoiler: Jarrod]], sent on a fool's errand by [[spoiler: Gisette]], and similarly distracted by [[spoiler: Woodly]], who gives his best shot at getting rid of him entirely. One can only imagine what is going through Jasper's head at each return and immediate banishment, [[spoiler: particularly if he's waiting patiently to speak to you himself.]]

* Play your cards right, and it's possible to trigger all five of the secret romances in a single play-through - which means that on your way to your meeting with the Matchmaker, you can conceivably end up not being able to make it five feet down the hallway at a time without ''someone'' pulling you aside to confess their passions, very possibly culminating in [[spoiler:Jasper himself]] stopping to offer a few restrained words of support after running this gauntlet.

* After the incident between the delegates from Skalt and Wellin, you wonder aloud whether it's wise to give the Skaltic women access to sharp table utensils, making Jasper's mouth [[ActuallyPrettyFunny twitch into a smile.]] ''[[TheStoic Jasper]]''.

** Just a little before that, you note with some surprise that [[PrincessClassic princesses frolicking in fields full of flowers]] is ''not'' just an invention of the bards, after all.

--->'''Jasper:''' Lord Blain has refused your invitation. The words he used... are not appropriate to be repeated. Suffice to say, we should all be glad he's not coming.

--> '''MC's Internal Monologue''': ...well that explains it.

* In your first batch of invitations, there's a letter from none other than [[UpperClassTwit Lord Blain]], who very publicly fell in HateAtFirstSight with you the previous evening. Your character reacts with confusion - until she opens it and finds a [[HateMail rather seething letter]] headed ''"To my incompetent rival."''
