"You've got blood on you"
"So do you"
(blushing ensues)
...lemme just check the genre REAL QUICK
Some people would rather invoke potentially lethal ancient magic than go up front and ask a simple question.
... hand me a magic circle, I got social problems to solve.
LOL
Nono he just remembers her.
Though going by the concept "I am spying on my crush by providing a safe haven for her stress-induced mini-me-form and getting her to relax and talk over some sweets" is like, upfront brazen and cunning rolled into one madelaine
He probably reasoned along the line of
1. even if I could approach her, she's engaged
2. even if she wasn't engaged, I'd be blocked by her impenetrable outer layer of civility
3. (she doesn't remember me)
4. how to approach her without causing 2 scandals and approx. 12 misunderstandings??
5. she's so stressed, she ain't got no time to be wooed (which, like, stalls competition but also keeps everything in a stalemate)
... why does this child look like my my crush years ago and TALKS LIKE HER
I should eat some Madeline’s…
Oh she's adorable. And falling asleep after she couldn't properly sleep for a week was to be expected (somehow) but the timing was impeccable.
Recommendation: Throw the whole man away. He's only fictional and I know him for all of one chapter and I enjoyed none of them.
I love that this family goes "he's a little weird but he's doing what he loves and what he loves yields UTTERLY IMPORTANT RESULTS so we're torn between cheering him on and knocking him out so he can rest"
And just let him do what he loves. It's fantastic
Slap him some more on my behalf. I'm just as annoyed and I'm not even involved.
Ok, no matter what - this guy is the epitome of uselessness and cowardice. I can let cowardice go, everyone's a coward every now and then, and that's fine. But he didn't pull his head out of his ass for long enough to do something about his cowardice and dares to sulk and whine? After a DECADE of being passive?
"I can never see you as a woman."
That's understandable! How about you act like the grown-up you're supposed to be and OWN UP to the responsibility you took.
"I was a child myself"
yes, well congrats! 10 years passed and apparently you matured not a single minute
"Oh I cannot process this as fast as you...?"
my god, he's gotta be some damn useless aide to the prince, then. Or is his inability SOMEHOW precisely shaped like "regarding this woman"?
Nah.
The story is mid. The real masterfully chosen thing is this guys persona which is ABHORRENTLY real. I know at least 5 guys like that.
Thank u your comment, kinda made my mood better like the ml is so annoying and I somehow also wish the girl would be more I don't know steely?(say not my main language), I just Linda want her to say that she overheared him or something cause it's frustrating me
