so does hope;

[LONG HIGH-PITCHED GASP OF REVERENCE]

NO! it is NOT the same as the short stories!!! The Infamous Chapter 19 And A Half was a bonus chapter at the end of the Prince’s Gambit paperback (there’s also one in the Captive Prince paperback called The Training of Erasmus, which is about – you guessed it – the training of Erasmus). it’s basically just an extra scene at the end of chapter 19, which doesn’t SOUND like much, BUT GO BACK AND CHECK WHAT CHAPTER CHAPTER 19 IS.

I originally read the first two books on my kindle so I didn’t have The Infamous Chapter 19 And A Half, either. blessedly, the glorious and ever enabling @camp-four happily took photographs of every individual page and text them all to me, in order. I still have them all in an album on my phone. sometimes I read it before I go to sleep in order to have sweet dreams and wake up refreshed and buoyed by the knowledge that true and good love is real and it’s out there. 

DON’T SAY I NEVER DO ANYTHING FOR YOU!
