Aw. This is all so pretty. I love the changes you've made to this since last I read the piece - Rosalie's voice seems just a bit less refined and as such, perhaps, truer to the way you'll end up portraying her through RP.

Of course, I absolutely adore her reflections on Jeanne. The way she just forgives her for being such a greedy person because wanting something that you shouldn't want is... not that far from her own reality, is it? Her thoughts on Charlotte ring very true to her character as well; she would have nothing but compassion for her, all things considered, because their love for Oscar is so similar.

Her thoughts about Oscar... well. We've already discussed her feelings for her, haven't we? I love the way you write about them here; Rosalie's yearning for more without ever succumbing to greediness like Jeanne, the way she can own up to what she's feeling because she's a strong woman - and more importantly, keep those feelings and accept the impossibility of it all at the same time. And Rosalie isn't one to get lost in ( ... )

I'm so thrilled you like this. It's the voice of an older Rosalie than the one I will be playing, of course, but overall this is much as I imagine her voice and her reasoning to be.

About the 'isn't that so' slip - I'm so glad you caught it. I was sure I'd managed to delete them all and exchange them for the more down to earth 'right', but apparently not. Will go do so right away.

Love you and look forward to playing with your Marie Antoinette. ♥
