boots with the purr's feed

if im not mistaken:

* tia marries perez and becomes empress by TITLE, perez does most if not all of the imperial duties while tia focuses on her matriarchal duties
* on their wedding, perez announces that he'd be living at the lombardi estate with tia, to show his support for her being the matriarch
* tia gets pregnant before they even get married

also, isnt it absolutely satisfying how jovanes hates perez because he's the spitting image of his father the previous emperor, who never believed he was right for the throne? like, complex much lmao
