It's interesting but really sad that Rishar treats the emperor like a dad and Etienne never had that. Like he argues with the emperor about his wrong doings, feels safe enough that he tells him about being with Etienne, kinda does whatever he wants and easily disrespect THE king like he's just a normal dad but poor baby Etienne has to walk on eggshells around both his parents, manage the emotional whims of Rishar and keep himself safe the best he can while planning for the future... I kinda feel spiteful towards Rishar when he acts like a dumb bish without considering Etienne's position like whining about wanting his pheromones on him or smth... he's lucky Etienne is an absolute angel and loves him bro I'd be so petty...
