Summary
“Is this where you ravish me?”
It was just the sort of remark Kile knew Princess Farilane would appreciate. A disarming conversational parry combined with irresistible humour. She huffed out a silent laugh and he felt the muscles in her back relax against his own.
“Maybe I should,” she told him. “It would serve you right.” -

Summary
She could try to assemble these bits of knowledge into a father, but she would fail. It is like building a man out of spare parts: a lock of hair here, a patch of skin there. You can make a serviceable figure. It can walk around and sit and speak with you. But when you try to put its heart in, all you can find is a brick wall.
She went to England to see her father while he lived, in case the rebels killed him. She left thinking, I have seen all I will see of him, even if he lives another fifty years.
[28 July 1540. Five people who got on with their day, and one who didn’t.]

Summary
"It may also please you to advertise my lord his grace that since his repair to Richmond I have been at Lesnes, where I saw one of the most piteous and grievous sights that ever I saw, which to me before the sight of the same was incredible, concerning the breach out of the Thames into the marshes at Lesnes, which are all overflowed and drowned."

Good Order, Counsel and Equity by theviolonist for yunitsa

Summary
"So you really think the king intends to marry me?"
He thought she knew. It is the only thing they're talking about, back in London; that and the death of Anne Boleyn, the fall of one queen and the rise of another, as seems to be the cyclic tragedy of Henry's reign. But now that she says it he believes her surprise; he just does not believe that it is a sign of innocence. He has said it many times, to people who accused him of persecuting the guileless: show me an innocent man, and I will reconsider my opinions, I will change my ways. Until then, let me do my job.
"Do you not think so?"
"Is it a lawyer's trick, to answer questions with questions?"
He allows himself a smile. "One you seem to be mastering exceptionally well."
