    The line of the Kings of Lucis are born with wings. Noct feels like it's just another burden he has to bear.

    Summary

    “Your name is Carlo.”

    Summary

    “I understand you worry for him. But young Romeo has been at the estate for barely a year. He’ll find his footing, and his people. You must only have faith, sister.”

    “Oh, I have faith in spades,” Sophia says, “but is it so bad I wish to give him a little push in the right direction?”

    If asked, Sophia would claim there is no child at the Rose Estate she favours over another.

    Her heart thinks otherwise, however.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    “Master Lea doesn’t know the meaning of ‘going easy on someone’, I’m afraid.” Ever the gentleman, Romeo takes the basket from her and sets it down carefully. The both of them sink down onto the blanket. “Besides, any bruises and sore muscles we suffer are par for the course.”

    “Still,” begins Sophia, “if ever she overdoes it in her teaching…”

    He chuckles. “Yes, I know: I will sic her sister onto her. Don’t worry, I won’t deprive you of that joy.”

    Laughing, Sophia pushes lightly at his shoulder. Romeo’s smile could light up the night sky, so bright is its radiance. The sight of it makes her immeasurably happy—happier than the possibility of being able to tear her sister a new one (which she would never do. Ever. Perish the thought!)

    Summary

    No one has a greater understanding of the soul than an artist. Not because art holds the soul of its subject, as some might suggest, there is no magic in oil and brush, but because being made the subject of a painting bares one's nature to the artist. It is necessary, if one is to have a truly remarkable portrait painted. 

    5 pictures of Carlo, and 1 of the boy that carries his heart.
