I feel like the theme of this so far is "people shouldn't covet what isn't meant to be theirs", and like that's very obvious with Kanna. Kanna basically asks the question, "what if Cinderella didn't deserve it actually, what if instead she was selfish and lacking self awareness to the point of delusion". Argos I think fits this theme too? I think it's not that he doesn't deserve to be king or doesn't deserve to have love with Lynette, just that he would be much happier if he didn't have those things. Politics stresses him out, the burden of the crown has been placed on him by his late mother and the competition with his golden child brother, and he's deeply insecure. In his first life, he used Lynette to ease that insecurity but it just made him vulnerable to Kanna who wielded his insecurity to get what she wanted, and what he thought he wanted. I think that Argos sincerely would be much happier, if he was just able to live in the countryside and paint. Not that he doesn't deserve more, but that it's not what meant for him, you know?
