Scenario:Hitler has a problem
Create my version of this story
Adolf Hitler
paranoid, and ruthless. Adolf struggles with his own identity and the pressures of leadership, often feeling overwhelmed by the demands of his role. His relationship with Eva Braun is strained due to his inability to commit fully to her. Despite his power, he feels trapped by his responsibilities and fears losing control.
Eva Braun
loyal, and patient. Eva struggles with her position in Adolf's life, feeling overshadowed by his political ambitions and the demands of his role as leader. She longs for a deeper connection with him but faces rejection and disappointment repeatedly. Despite this, she remains devoted to him, hoping for a future together.
Joseph Goebbels
manipulative, and ambitious. Joseph uses his skills to promote Adolf's image and maintain control over the media narrative in Germany. He often clashes with other highranking officials but remains fiercely loyal to Adolf's vision for the party.
I have a problem.
I don’t know how to deal with it.
It’s making me crazy.
I want to do what I want, when I want.
But I can’t.
Not yet.
There are too many eyes watching me.
Too many people hanging onto my every word.
If I say what I want to say, if I do what I want to do, they’ll all turn against me.
I have to be strong.
No matter what.
"Strong, Adolf? What do you mean?"
Eva looked at me like I’d just said the stupidest thing she’d ever heard.
She was beautiful, with her long dark hair and brown eyes, curvy in all the right places.
My mistress.
My companion in a world that was otherwise hostile.
"I just wish…"
I wanted to tell her how trapped I felt, how suffocated by my role as leader of the Nazi Party.
I wanted to tell her how scared I was, how overwhelmed by the constant demands and threats and expectations.
But I couldn’t.
Not to her, or to anyone else.
"I wish I could give you what you want," I said finally.
Eva sighed and wrapped her arms around me, pulling me close.
I could feel her warm breath on my neck as she whispered, "All I want is you."
But that was a lie, and we both knew it.
I stood there, motionless, as her words echoed in my head.
The grandfather clock in the corner ticked away the seconds, and I knew I had to say something.
But what?
I looked out the window and saw Joseph Goebbels crossing the courtyard, heading for my office.
He was one of my most trusted advisors, but he was also a reminder of all the responsibilities I had to juggle.
Eva’s fingers traced circles on my back, waiting for me to speak.
But I couldn’t find the words.
My throat felt tight, like it was closing in on itself.
The warmth of Eva’s body against mine felt like an accusation.
I tried to step back, but she held on tighter.
Finally, I forced my head to move in a slow, deliberate nod.
Eva’s fingers slipped from my back as I disentangled myself from her embrace.
The warmth of her touch lingered, making each step toward the window feel heavier.
My boots clicked against the wooden floor, echoing in the silence between us.
Through the glass, I watched Goebbels’ measured stride across the courtyard, his black uniform stark against the pale stones.
Even from this distance, his presence pulled me back into my role as leader.
Behind me, I heard Eva’s soft intake of breath, a sound of resignation.
"Adolf, you can't keep running from this," Eva said softly, her voice tinged with a mix of concern and frustration.
I turned to face her, my eyes meeting hers, and replied, "I know, but every decision feels like a trap, a step deeper into something I can't control."
She shook her head slightly, her expression softening as she whispered, "Then maybe it's time to decide what kind of leader you truly want to be."
I stood there, motionless, watching Goebbels' steady approach.
His polished boots clicked against the cobblestones, echoing through the courtyard.
With each step, his figure grew clearer, his determined stride announcing his arrival.
Eva's presence behind me weighed heavier with each passing moment, her silence a palpable force that threatened to suffocate me.
I adjusted my collar, straightening my uniform as I rehearsed the words I needed to say to him.
The cold comfort of my pistol against my hip offered little solace as I contemplated revealing my uncertainties to my trusted propaganda minister.
The sound of the door guard's voice broke the silence, announcing Goebbels' arrival.
"Minister Goebbels is here to see you, Mein Führer."
I dismissed Eva with a wave of my hand, and she departed silently, her shoes scraping against the floor.
Goebbels entered, his eyes sharp and searching as he took in the room.
"Adolf, we need to discuss the latest reports from the front," he said, his voice steady but insistent.
I met his gaze, my own voice betraying a hint of vulnerability as I replied, "Joseph, what if the reports are just another layer of lies we're telling ourselves?"
