"I believe that, in all respects, women/a woman will do him good" from one gay man about another would be boggling in most circumstances, but coming from Fritz about Heinrich, it has that special extra.

Yessssss. I was at a loss for words, it's just so.... yeah. FRITZ.

Fritz: I meant that he'd have an additonal source of income, thus providing less expenses to me, and would understand my own situation a little better. Naturally.

HAHAHAHAHA okay I laughed really hard

word has reached me that my former valet Fredersdorf, who's been unwell for a while which is why he married A NURSE has died

HEE. But seriously, yeah, I wonder if he would rather have not said anything than said it in the terms that would have been appropriate and knowing he wouldn't be understood.

Awwww, I love it about the dragon statue! She really has the best sense of humor, like you say it's really nice to be reminded that she did get to be silly and sweet sometimes <333333
