Oh, Jonas, there's hope for you yet. It's not just you. I don't care for the prince in this story.
[ his takeaways are pretty on point. sometimes, a modern teenage boy can be good. is it love, if the person only hones in on appearances? beauty is important, but it's what beauty is to someone that makes a distinction. ]
He chose to die with her in the end, but it was his fault in the first place.
[ .... ]
If you think about what love could do for her, it's something that can apply to many.
[ there's a slight huff at that. sometimes a modern teenage boy has opinions on these things that just so happen to line up. ]
Doesn't sound like there's much likable about the guy, so I can't blame you. I'm sure it's supposed to be, like, noble or romantic that he chose to die with her but when you think about the part where she could have lived if he hadn't been involved...it was more inevitable. [ perhaps the prince should have died, period.
but he's quiet, watching the shadow audience fill into the theater as he mulls over that. ]
Love, if it was actually real, probably could've set her free. It could have been something to give her a better life and a better chance of doing something else. And instead, somebody else's idea of love took away everything. She really didn't even get a choice. I wouldn't say you're wrong about that though. It's something that can apply to...a lot of people.
