“I’d date more, probably, as well.”

Alex can’t help laughing again. “Right, because it’s so hard to get a date when you’re a prince.” Henry cuts his eyes back down to Alex. “You’d be surprised.” “How? You’re not exactly lacking for options.” Henry keeps looking at him, holding his gaze for two seconds too long. “The options I’d like…” he says, dragging the words out. “They don’t quite seem to be options at all.”

Alex blinks. “What?”

“I’m saying that I have … people … who interest me,” Henry says, turning his body toward Alex now, “But I shouldn’t pursue them. At least not in my position.” Are they too drunk to communicate in English? He wonders distantly if Henry knows any Spanish.

“I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about,” Alex says.

“You don’t?” “No.”

“You really don’t?” “I really, really don’t.”

Henry’s whole face grimaces in frustration, his eyes casting skyward like they’re searching for help from an uncaring universe. “Christ, you are as thick as it gets,” he says, and he grabs Alex’s face in both hands and kisses him.

"Anyway, I found this part of a letter Hamilton wrote to Laurens, and it made me think of you. And me, I guess:

"The truth is I am an unlucky honest man, that speak my sentiments to all and with emphasis. I say this to you because you know it and will not charge me with vanity. I hate Congress—I hate the army—I hate the world—I hate myself. The whole is a mass of fools and knaves; I could almost except you …"

Thinking about history makes me wonder how I’ll fit into it one day, I guess. And you too. I kinda wish people still wrote like that.

History, huh? Bet we could make some.

Affectionately yours, slowly going insane,

I feel like Loki does have true feelings for Sylvie and she doesn't reciprocate them??( or she thinks of him as a friend at best ) Because he thinks that the only person who will ever trust him is himself/ a version of himself,, but when Sylvie pushes him through the portal thing she clearly says "I'm not you." And Loki kind of figures it out that they're not meant to be since they'll never truly trust each other- "Because you cannot trust and I cannot be trusted" was sort of an epiphany more than an accusation?

Even though I'm still rooting for Lokius, I think it'll be interesting to see if Loki x Sylvie work it out? They could have a complex relationship dynamic for sure. ANYWAYS SYLVIE SWEETIE WHAT DID YOU JUST DO-

At first I was like ✨Freddy carter✨ AS A JOKE.........but broo......I don't think it's a joke anymore........

“Apologies, Lady—” “I’m twenty-two,” she said flatly. “And I think we city guards see a great deal more than you palace princesses.”

But Nesryn turned back and leaned a hand on the table. “I saw her face last night, Brullo, and it’s as pretty as before. Don’t you have a wife to ogle, anyway?” Aelin snorted. “I think I rather like you, Nesryn Faliq.”

“How good’s your accuracy, Faliq?” “I don’t miss,” Nesryn said.

Nesryn said, “Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Stay the course, but also plot another one. Adapt.”

Never wanted love
