It always looked to me she was persuaded or got caught in it by having a bit of a pushover/groupie personality, AFAICR. I don't know if that's how character alignments should work. Should they describe the character personality or the end result of actions after all the influences (which would still make it fairly neutral)? The amount of chaos/scatterbrainedness seemed out-of-character. I get this was Ashley getting her share, but it didn't seem like Pike.

Like, he genuinely was subconsciously going through thinking that nobody could be mean with Pike’s mannerisms, and the others “made her mean”, and nobody could convince him otherwise.

Purple Jewel Cake Ingredients: Purple gem dust - 1/2 cup + 1/4 cup Bicardi - 3 oz. Apple-bottom jeans - 1 pair, finely ground Fun Buns - 2, medium sized Wish - 1/2 Confusion - 1/2 cup Water - 1/2 cup Pineapple - 1/2 medium sized, sliced into rings - Step 1: In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine apple-bottom jeans, 1/2 cup purple gem dust and 1/2 a wish. Stir gently to combine. Step 2: Add the 1/2 cup of confusion, making sure to incorporate well and break up any clumps Step 3: Add the wet ingredients, continuing to gently stir until small bubbles begin to form in batter Step 4: Pour batter into medium sized circular baking pan, making sure batter is spread evenly all the way to the sides of the pan Step 5: Place on center rack in oven preheated to 450F for approximately 30 minutes, checking at 25 minutes Step 6: Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup purple gem dust evenly across top of cake. Failure to immediately sprinkle will fail to produce a perfectly mirrored sheen Step 7: Lay sliced pineapple evenly across top of cake Step 8: Place fun buns on top as decoration - Allow to cool for at least 1 hour before serving or refrigerating
