"it is not fair at all, i feel as though women should have the same options as men to and not be outcasted for their choices, i know i would never outcast my sister if she were to make some of the same choices i made. i could be disappointed if it were to lead to an unwanted situation but who am i to control someone else's life?" he mused softly as he looked at her. "i thank you for not having an opinion for i think i have found myself truly smitten."

❝ you're sister, odette ? is it not ? ❞ a cheshire like grin spread across her lips, oh she knew of odette. ❝ many of brothers would surely not share your views, it looks as if your sister and your love are lucky to have you. ❞ she chuckles softly. ❝ to find love that is entire pure is a god send, cherish it well. ❞

"oh my apologizes, i did not mean to run into you, are you okay?"

practically unfazed but the bump, elizabeth waves off the apologies with ease. ❝ no blood, no foul. ❞ the prussian muses with a smile. ❝ you're okay ? ❞

"how can one argue with that for if a man were to say the same words there wouldn't be a second thought so there shouldn't be if said by a lady," he shrugged. he could care less about the happenings of others so long as he was happy and his family were alright. "society has a backwards way of thinking, they think and feel as if everything should be proper and on the straight and narrow, could only imagine how some would feel if they knew that someone of my status was courting a barmaid."

❝ most truly, i find it repulsive that men are free to do as they wish with little to repercussions, and yet they seek women who are untouched and pure. ❞ she could not help but roll her eyes at the thoughts. ❝ i suppose you are not like them, i much prefer that about you. i could care very little who you court, certainly none of my business, so bless your courtship with all the best. ❞

"it truly doesn't make any sense what so ever, you chase after one and then come to find out that there are far better options out there waiting to be scooped up," he sighed softly. "ever since i moved here i too didn't understand the concept but if it wasn't for the fact that i must marry eventually i wouldn't participate in any of it," sebastian confessed as he looked to the other. "there's nothing wrong with that, you like what you like and you will not settle for anything less. it's natural and normal, anyone who says otherwise is a fool."

❝ you and i both, though i'm not looking to marry. ❞ for frankly if the suitor didn't have long blonde hair, taste of pomegrante and strawberries and say her name in such a away, she rarely held more than a passing interest. ❝ i couldn't agree more, though i've found it is often frowned upon and i don't know why. ❞

❝ i can't say that i don't agree. ❞ of course, she'd never even met this season's diamond, and frankly she also didn't see the appeal of this one at least. ❝ she's not for my tastes either, to be frank, to boring. ❞

"if my secret is safe with you than yours shall be safe with me," it was nice to know that there were a few who understood where he was coming from. it was never the diamond that caught his attention when the seasons came and left, it was the one's who stepped out of the box. "and what is for your tastes, if i dare ask?"

❝ princess alexandra once explain to me, the whole diamond thing, and i truly cannot understand why men would fight for one girl when there are that many eligible women that are simply ignored. ❞ she shook her head, thankful that it seemed the man was on the same page. ❝ my tastes ? i suppose whatever passes my fancy at the time. ❞ though it was often in the form of the before mentioned princess.

sebastian found himself nodding in agreement, "we all have what we enjoy and what we don't, for it is the same with me in regards to his sister. i know she is the diamond of the season but she has not caught my gaze," he shrugged lightly. it was true for his sights set on something far more interesting and wild. "i will hold no judgement to you and your secret is safe with me."

❝ i can't say that i don't agree. ❞ of course, she'd never even met this season's diamond, and frankly she also didn't see the appeal of this one at least. ❝ she's not for my tastes either, to be frank, to boring. ❞

❝ i find that paint drying is more exciting than this. ❞ the lady in waiting muttered softly, curling a lock of orange hair around her finger. ❝ honestly, i would much prefer anything but this. ❞

with a purse of his lips he nodded slowly, "that would be unfair to them, i wonder how they deal with him in the end." there was no actual answer he was searching for but the curiousness was still there. "you truly do not like him do you?"

elizabeth chuckles lightly. ❝ it is truly not that i don't like him, but rather i don't see the appeal ? ❞ she rolls her eyes slightly. ❝ i am not a lady to fall at the feet of men because they are pretty. ❞ women on the other hand.
