istg if it a "this is a misunderstanding, i love you but i was too shy to talk to you and after your death i went crazy" scenario, i don't want it. bc even if you're too shy or awkward to talk to her, you have to be an absolute dumbass to be unaware of the rumors of her being a decorative fiancee and that dumbassery is what cost her life. ultimately it is and will always be his fault that she died and he's probably the one who bound her soul too bc of how utterly selfish he is

the fact that it's sooo obvious to us that the foreign royal just recognized Edith's knight and wanted to talk about that but blondie bitch is so obnubilated that she saw him staring at the knight with concern or surprise as him wanting to flirt with Edith's and she wants to create a "caught you red handed" moment

sorry but the second he started talking about only marrying a virgin I'd have responded "so you can be a whore with a body count as high as the distance from here to the moon, but a woman who had one partner while she was daring is unmarryable to you? why should her chastity matter if yours don't? ew." and break up with him right then and there, those kinds of things is like a waterhose to the fire of passion to me.
this pisses me off so bad when they're obviously so in love but never confirm what they feel to the other bc they keep "testing the water" but the more you test the water by shaking your hand in it, the murkier it become and nothing is clear and it hurts everyone. so let's both grow a pair and be honest and have a real conversation instead of being something like "more than friedns but less than lovers" bc you can kiss, make out and fuck but saying "I'm in love with you" or "i wanna date you" is too hard huh? bunch of idiotic dumbass buffoons
