With all of yesterday behind us, I think it is worth hearing...beauty is something you notice, but charm is something that has noticed you.

The sentiment could be shared less frivolously...

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Exactly! I really don't see what was so wrong with the old-fashioned ways of going about it, anyway.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Well there is also something to be said about the court being too stiff, middleground is best.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

...Do you really think so?

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

I do. I am not very fond of arrangements. A king must marry because he is to have a queen, but he should marry first for love, how can he love what continues to be forced upon him? How can a princess for that matter?

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Oh. I see now, if it's that sort of thing. No, you're right, I'm...not very fond of arrangements like that, not at all. And I suppose I'm lucky in that my father isn't, either, so he likely wouldn't try to persuade me into one.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

You're a very fortunate princess.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

And a highly unusual one, I've found. But sometimes I think that's as much a compliment as any of the ones I received yesterday.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Unusual, unconventional, I think both can mean interesting or unique, and worth noticing.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Well, I certainly like that interpretation.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

So do I, and I am sure anyone who knows you thinks the same.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

And it's much better than the one Dr. Chase told me about having a unique personality, too.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

What did he tell you?

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Well, he said that in modern dating, you shouldn't let someone say you have a unique personality, because that means they think you're ugly.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

I have never heard of that before.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

At least, that's how I understand it, anyway.
