Context for Line 1- Cinder has just agreed to fix Prince Kai’s android. Peony hears about this and starts fantasizing about what may happen between him and Cinder: "And you’re going to wear your cutest cargo pants, and the prince will be all like ‘Hey,’ and you’ll be like ‘Hi’ and then you’ll hand him the android in the sexiest way possible, and he’ll ask you out to the ball!"
Context for Line 2- Peony has just realized she has a dark welt on her hand, a sign of the first stage of Letumosis, a plague that is 100% lethal. "It has to be a shadow, right? (Beat.) I can't have the plague. I’m going to go to the ball. I'm meeting the Prince. I don't want to die. I don’t want to die. I don’t want to die. I don’t want to- (She begins to hyperventilate.)"
