and again, WHY NOT THE KNIGHT AS MALE LEAD??

Because he’s too humble and wouldn’t have the mental fortitude to be her partner. He’d spend most of the time stressing over the fact that she is a noble and he is a commoner; and how it will affect her social standing. Plus Harvey is really smexy as an adult. Lucas wouldn’t be a bad alternative for ML….
It would have been hilarious if she stopped being into him when he turned younger lmao. Kinda like the Beauty and the Beast joke
