She has a point tho. Growing up many guys would try to bully me and say mean things and when i asked for teachers help all i got was a "oh he problably likes you, he's just to shy to tell you" and i grew up with that kind of mindset until i realised that if they didn't respect me when i was a girl then they'd problably grow up to be an abusive husband. It's just really sad how older people romanticize what one day will become domestic violence. (︶︿︶)=凸

REPEAT AFTER ME. they are not blood related, it is not incest. The are adoptive siblings. It is a moral isssue rather than incest. They didn't grew up together, they didn't get to create sibling bonds. And why is it not considered insest you may ask, the same way childhood lovers is not insest. Childhood friends that grow up and end up together often times have stronger siblings bonds that those that you have with your own siblings. Sometimes they are raised as if they were siblings, but because they're not blood related, it is not looked as insest. The reason why you are uncomfortable is because of the moral that society tauhgt us. Ak what is "wrong" and "right".

I used to hate rose sooooo much, but after reading spoilers, i would had probably done the same shit. Trauma can dehumanize people. If i was her i would had stepped on anyone i had to in order to get revenge or at least to be safe aka gettig the highest satus i could possibly obtain. She's such an evil bitch, but that just goes to show that she is human and a well written chraracter at that. And i can't deny that if the story was told in her POV, i would have had agreed with most of her desions(exept killing the fl's sister, she wasn't a treath at all). Plus she is such a smart and cold-blooded. She's not that different from the fl, they both have reasons to fight until the other one is dead. I have love-hate vibe toward her. Would 100% read a version in her POV. Love this story.(づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ

This is not directed at you specifically it's just some of ur points made me want to add my own
Also this contains spoilers
My take on it is punish the guilty not the innocent. Like Rose is a victim but she hurt too many innocent people for me to hope she would get a happy ending. Like in the first timeline she killed the fl's entire family. In the second one she tried to ruin political relationships and sent assassins after the queen. But, all of that is rather unnecessary bc she already had the emperors love and a high ranking position. The emperor was literally in the palm of her hand and would've done anything for her. Also, in both timeline's the queens were rather harmless. The fl's sister just being innocent. And the fl would only retaliate if Rose provoked her first.
It would've been cooler and smarter on her part if she teamed up with the queen to take down the people who wronged her. Bc uk girl power and all

I totally agree that it was unnecessary in both timelines. But in the second one fl is smarter and is high alert, because she know what's up. In the second TL after the banquet things start to change, rosemund cant only rely on the emperor's love and trust, that would be stupid, she needs stable and unshakable ground to stand. Anything could happen and make the emperor lose his love for her. She's a gaslighter, she needs to make sure that she is the only one the emperor can trust, and that used to be the case, until the banquet. After the banquet, the comment that the other king/emeperor(? ) made that was in the lines of "she's a reliable empress, dont be stupid and lose her" (i dont remember that well), the emperor started seeing the fl with a new perspective *maybe it isn't that bad that she is the empress*. The dome rosemund built around the emperor was starting to be break, it was a race agaisnt the clock before the dome broke entirely. But at the end it did, it has arleady fallen apart.

Girls like sex too. Girls want sex too. Girls can have sex with guys that they dont have feelings for too. Sleeping with other guys doesnt make her a whore. Society has this image of girls in wich we have to act as if we are holy spirits. if we sleep with more than one guy in our entire life, we are whores, sluts and therefore we dont deserve respect from others anymore. It makes me so mad to read comments asking why she's sleeping with other guys and that lf she was so horny then why not look for a vibrator. Like it's her body, she's not doing it to find validation of a man, she's doing it because she has questions about her body that she wants to answer. LET GIRLS DO WHATEVER THEY WANT!!! #-.-)
I mean... Shin kinda right tho. The king needs an heir and he cant give him an heir cuz he's a men. I feel shin's pain. Imagine trying to choose a partner for the one u love, that must be hurting him too. But he's not a selfish being so he prefers to suffer just so the king and kingdom can prosper.
