Michael Stirling watching Francesca Bridgerton-Stirling and his best friend/cousin John Stirling together in newlywed bliss… knowing she’s the only woman he’ll ever love, and he’ll never have her.
For her, it’s been burning. For him, it’s finally igniting.
( And actually his candle is already low and a liiittttle bit lit, implying the love was always there, burning so low as to not be noticed, but surely burning nonetheless 🔥♥️ )
Anthony’s confession this, George’s confession that like whatever HELLO??? QUEEN CHARLOTTE HERSELF LITERALLY DROPPED THE HARDEST GUT WRENCHING LINE OF ALL???? “I will stand with you between the heavens and the Earth. I will tell you where you are." If someone said that to me I would immediately crumple onto the floor bawling and pull out a ring cmon now
