(isn't Glasow supposed to have killed himself in prison, too)
Hmm. Not that I remember? I only remember him dying of a weakened body. The one I remember killing himself in prison was the Saxon envoy, Count Hoym.
But we've seen multiple accounts of Glasow, so it's possible there's one that I'm forgetting.
So: a witty pretty, but evidently with nerves of steel (anyone making it out of a triangle with Fritz and Heinrich alive and on (intermittent, in Fritz' case) good terms with both parties would have to be!) and good job skills.
Very true!
(which we know from Henckel as well as Lehndorff - am still thrilled about this discovery!)
And here we were complaining about the endless reuse of royal family first names…
Ha! Be careful what you wish for. Well, as someone who keeps a running list of ways people have misspelled my r/l name, I can definitely see an advantage in everyone being called Sophia, Dorothea, or Elisabeth. :P (Though I like my unusual name and refuse to go by something simpler.)
Algarotti to Lord Hervey: Look, if it works out, it's win win for everyone! She stops pining for me. He gets an additional sponsor and some free education, given the sheer range of her knowledge. Sure, there's an age difference, but clearly that's not a problem for her or you. The Queen has one poor guy less to sponsor and could consider advancing my career instead. Mary/Peter OTP!
Heee. How can you argue with this logic? I'm sure if Peter hadn't left within a few weeks of Algarotti's arrival, we'd see "And stop trying to hook me up with the Prussian guy! I am your Penelope!" in Lady Mary's letters. ;)

:D Detective librarian + reader = winning combination yet again.
