Social hierarchy I’ve found works similar to alliance rank in mobile games. It goes Rank 1-5, with 5 being the landlord and the repair person, 4 being the house manager, 3 being the people with special privileges, 2 being the people who don’t cause issues, and 1 being anyone new or who causes issues or guests over the house.
I’m rank 2, I can get away with taking questionable medicine and can barter the landlord if she can’t prove I owe her money. I have high favor in rank 5 but not enough to protect me from being scapegoated to hell. I’m blamed for “ripping off” a rank 3 by sharing food with her, even though I pay more for the food she eats more of. I’m looked down on for feeding people when I’m not the designated cook, which is a rank 4 position. But rank 4 doesn’t provide food for us to survive and live healthy, I do, and as such I am looked down on because I’m rank 2.
As a rank 2 I can have my guests told to leave in any manner of way, be that leave the couch, or leave my room, or leave the house. As a rank 2 if I go with a date and don’t come back I can’t guarantee my body will be returned to my family. So I don’t leave the house. Ever, unless it’s to go to the gas station, or a doctor appointment I’m not able to do virtual such as the dentist. Therapy wants me to go in person or not at all, so I simply don’t do it at all.
Rank 4 is allowed to do whatever she wants, but she also hands out quality of life privileges, so long as she’s not under order of rank 5 to do otherwise. Rank 3 can do whatever they want, because they’re elderly and were teenagers during the Apollo missions. This includes smoking crack, which I have another blog on the drama of that. Keep in mind rank 1 gets locked up for drinking, whereas rank 3 can do hard liquor and so long as it’s cool with rank 4. As rank 2 I only have my Tianeptine vapes, which is okay because it’s a legal substance, whereas if I was rank 1 I would get in trouble for using that.
