*sarcastic voice* Oh yeah how embarrassing a young guy that literally never had a relationship so he never kisses anyone and that wants to take things slow and respect her fiance, oh yes the scandal, the betrayal, how horrible for the girl that her future husband maybe wants to take things slow, and is as inexpensive as her yet doesn't force her or is a creep *end of sarcastic voice*
But seriously, I support people that want to take things slow and don't want to force themselves to "gain experience" to search for certain social expectations. And actually I'm surprised because usually historical speaking usually royals go to certain places to "have fun" especially men, maybe prince is the type that wanted to do stuff with someone he actually likes not just some random pretty stranger, which again is valid.

It's curious he mentioned how inappropriate it is to do that with a maid (which again sadly in history and in real life is very common with people in power positions, not many of those fling are consensual) because I remember how he tried to ask certain satyr maybe for a first kiss, so a maid isn't ok to do but with him it is? 🤔 It's interesting because this could mean he really doesn't think he was doing something inappropriate with Atlas since he thought they were at least friends? The power imbalance is huge in both cases but maybe it's more obvious to him with others because "humans" and the whole stereotypes of satyrs mixed with his little crush? I don't know maybe I'm overthinking 😅
