Bookwhispering

perfect crown headers.

That said, the ‘Curse of the 12 Eps’ is real - some of you observed that much earlier than me and you were right. The show was so deep and well-observed in its first half and it really lost that in the final episodes where characters were less precisely drawn and motivations got muddled and rushed.

Still, I am so glad this show exists. An imperfect highlight 👑

As prince, all the hair gel:

Abolish the monarchy? No more hair gel for you!

This is great. I was feeling cooped up anyway.

So get me out of here.

This is how you protect someone. You go on the offensive. You fight back.

I like you. Stick to one thing. I'm getting confused. No, you're not. You know I like you. And that I only asked for a divorce to protect you. That's why you're mad.

I'm just reassuring you. I'm right here.

bickering about parenting styles

her taking off the cufflink

him coming over with food to check on her

their laughs

him bringing her home the minute he heard people got into the building to egg her

her using him as a shield (she wouldnt do this with anyone else)

phone calls

making sure shes protected even when hes not there

bringing items for her man

kissing his wife

Stay still.

You should hold your ground and puff out your chest so I can feel reassured.

We don't need to maintain decorum now? Yeah. No more decorum.
