OK Not technically erotic but the Prince drew their spouse card for the first time in a while and I love love love all of the spouse cards. They convey so much connection and emotional intimacy and trust… it’s the best. Only real exception is the Consort for being much more generic but I suppose since the Consort is a stand-in for any kind of rubbery spouse you might imagine it makes sense that it would be that way.
Also, I agree with Kukapetal about the struggling artist. I get why it was removed but also my character very much still thought he was cute. It didn’t read as taking advantage as much as just availability. We had drifted apart, but occasionally ran back into one another under annoying circumstances, but that didn’t mean there wasn’t still something between us!
Oh, and to clarify my point from before, I didn’t read the Cheesemonger’s Daughter scene nearly as harshly as other players in the thread have, I just thought it was (comparatively) poorly done, and if it more elegantly executed on its concept of mutual manipulation (which is a compelling and interesting turn for the story imo) it might not have been so readable to people as one-sidedly exploitative and nefarious.
