cahnIn the previous post Charles II found AITA:
Look, I, m, believe in live and let live. (And in not going on my travels again. Had enough of that to last a life time.) Why can't everyone else around me be more chill? Instead, my wife refuses to employ my girlfriend, my girlfriend won't budge and accept another office, my brother is set on a course to piss off everyone (he WILL go on his travels again), and my oldest kid shows signs of wanting my job which is just not on, sorry to say. And don't get me started about Mom (thank God she's living abroad). What am I doing wrong? AITA?

Re: Philippe and Liselotte gossip
Date: 2022-04-07 05:20 am (UTC)Hee, yes. And, I mean, I suppose Philippe hardly cares now, and we definitely do :)
Philippe's wedding night with Minette featured him being angry that she had her monthly bleedings.
Oh right! Ugh, Philippe. No one's fault that started out on the wrong foot, but... (And of course, very much Philippe's fault that he was angry about something she couldn't at all help and also super natural, though that quote Mildred mentioned before about having to marry makes me a very small bit more sympathetic. Argh, human beings.) And presumably either Liselotte's marriage didn't start off on that particular wrong foot, or if it did Philippe, being older and having gone through it once already, was a little more blase about it, or else Liselotte made a vulgar joke about it which went over well :P :)
she had for exmaple told the Dauphin that even if she saw him bollock-naked from the soles of his feet up, she would not be tempted by him (nor anyone else).
Aw, I am charmed by this :P (And, like, isn't the sentiment a good one? :) )
She had allowed her ladies to indulge in gallantries
Oh noooooo! Anything but that!
It's just as possible Louis didn't want to say "you're supposed to cheer me on, you're French now, not be bitter about this, and also, how dare you say my piety consists of not having sex with young women anymore?!?
Heh! this seems extremely plausible.
