Re: Fritz-Duhan Follow-Up

[cahn]

YAY ANNA AMALIA. I feel she is the real hero of this family for being the only one (as far as I know?) to actively decide to Parent Differently <3

So my impression was that Charlotte was one for playing it safe, punching downwards and submitting upwards. Which is why I'm intrigued she played courier for Fritz and Duhan. Of course, the personal risk for her isn't that great - she's not financially dependent on FW the way Wilhelmine still is, Braunschweig is a duchy with blood ties to the Habsburgs as well as the Hohenzollern, so if FW finds out, he's not able to harm her or her husband as a consequence - and since Fritz will be the next King, it could be a way to cement her standing with him.

That makes a lot of sense!
