Someone the other day tried to compare Alexander's relationship with John to his unrequited romance with Kitty like I would really like to see how that works lmao.
I hope you enjoyed that mention of John because if I'm being 100% honest with you guys this chapter is just Mary Eleanor being awesome.
I'm sorry.
SO
MARY ELEANOR
When Mary was six years old, John told his dad "Polly thinks the restraint incident to her sex, very mortifying, and asked one day with as much gravity as innocence, if they would not let her wear breeches & become a boy.", "She envied Harry his freedom very much and would wish to be upon the same footing with him. When she was told that this change would not be effectual, she proposed what she thought would infallibly answer the purpose, to be re-christen'd, and have a male name.
And of course since Henry sucks he responded "a narrative of the history of Joan of Arc may cure the little maid's ambition for breeches."
I love Mary Eleanor.
