this comment right here!! his trauma is extremely valid
I meant to upvote not downvote!! His trauma is completely understandable
I guessed as much. He sees traumatised and his first wife seems to have a lot to do with it. I hope he'll heal.
Yeah he was practically assaulted
Actually he was 13 years old and Pulaski was born when he was 14. Which makes it worse because you're 13. That's a preteen! You're supposed to be playing with Legos. Not having a baby. Oh my God. A baby having a baby. I know he was a preteen kid, but when you see the picture, he looks like Abigail holding a baby. Oh my God. It's cute but also sad because, that's something you would think he was holding his little sister, not his daughter. Just look at his sad little wide eyes, so lost and confused. Oh my God. I want to cry
yeaaa i remember it and when i read the novel and imagined a 15-year-old taking responsibility not just of the child he was forced to have but a nation too made me tear up. also imagine the eyes of power-hungry nobles on him. his life is tragic im glad he has abigail now
please dont sabelian too much. his reason is very valid and his backstory is actually sad :((. he was forced by the grownups to have concieve a child with the previous empress when he was 14 so they basically threw both of them in the room to do that. so he had blanche at 15 years old and it was pretty much very traumatizing to him. he was forced to do it because he became emperor at that age. his wife died pretty early too and he was barely an adult. stop hating him !!
