"Who would want to kill the thing that makes maps like this?"

i started reading book 3 of masquerade very recently but i'm still devastated about the monster baru cormorant. some notes about this piece under the cut!

-Seduces baru so effortlessly that baru concludes she must be doing a nefarious plot to out her and get her arrested

-response to the imperial accountaint uncovering her treason is to take said accountant (baru) on a romantic horse ride thru the woods

-dresses up as a man to meet baru in disguise and opens with using this disguise to hit on her???

-tain hus like "homosexuality used to be common in my culture" and baru is like "do the people still remember that" and tain hu responds with "i sure hope they do i was just fucking my way thru town last month"

-also in that converstation telling baru she needs an accountant to keep track of all the girls shes fucking

-ALL THE CONSTANT SHOULDER TOUCHES AND SHIT???

-doing the i would die for you please let me die for you shit at baru

-gets mad at baru for contemplating marrying a man even tho she was the one who suggested doing that like. an hour earlier. for gal pal reasons.
