Yesss, Courtney bends to everyone. Even her husband. Everybody is feeling bad for Richard for the wrong reasons, he's unfortunate, but their issues are way deeper than him not getting her attention when she's busy working for him and the country. They need to talk things out or seek counsel somehow so they don't stress themselves or each other thin. They need to get off courtneys back thoooo

Speak on it! Everyone here loves to baby Richard (looks wise) and pity him because of his past. And sure, I get it, he’s gone through hell because of his father’s obsession with retiring. But have they stopped to think that not only Richard’s feelings and needs matter? That guy also doesn’t do much because he dumps all work on his assistant to go follow Courtney around the palace lmao.
holy yap

Can't stand man babies. They're pathetic but in a bad way, iykwim lol.
She took her role seriously, basically everyone who saw how hardworking she is (that aunt now, her attendants and EVEN king) respects and appreciate that. And ohh, how satisfying it is, to finally have someone acknowledge how trustworthy and capable Courtney is. I love her character sooo much
Courtney doesn't have to babysit Richard, he's grown ass man, capable of busying himself

Like, after all the bullshit she’s had to put up with since childhood, her having to babysit her family and making sure they don’t get their organs harvested because of debt. She doesn’t have to carer to anyone in the palace, and that includes Richard. He’s also the backbone of the empire, and needs to act as such.
She’s “neglecting” Richard because… she’s busy! She took on this job because she wants to prove herself since most people undermined her and think she’s not worthy of the crown princess position. Richard’s not a child, he can communicate what he’s feeling at any given time. Girl’s not a mind reader.
