Well at least he was honest. He knew it was a complex topic and easy to have opinions. He certainly did. And as someone who wanted to change things quickly, it was difficult not to see similarities between himself and Edelgard, even if they may or may not have been there. No, Kelson decided to stop trying to draw conclusions between their words. He did not know enough to make an informed decision. There were obviously extraneous factors at work, and any number of them could help or hinder. He simply didn't know enough.

But it did bother him that Linhardt didn't have a clear sense of what he believed. Perhaps that was a byproduct of his lack of duty. Or sense of duty. One couldnt just have fun all the time.

"I'm glad you realize that at least. Do you intend to abdicate then?" Kelson asked the same question that had been asked of him, and then shook his head.

"You are right. Let's turn to other, less tedious topics." Although Kelson loved politics. He understood them. Still, he was also known to get bored during court and council meetings.

"Sorbet? No, I can't say that I have. And no, I have not slept in odd places." While deprived would not be a word most people would use with respect to Kelson's position or live, he certainly hasn't been free. Or it seems, exposed to sorbet. And yet, yes, he totally did expect Linhardt to be his doctor. Wasn't that the way it worked? He was the king! Okay. A king. Perhaps not Linhardt's but. Still.

"Some physician you are."
