Did a big read today (not really in terms of pages, I guess, but definitely in terms of time 
). I really wanted to finish their meeting about the ring, so I read for an hour, took a break, then read for another hour. The way Seigi keeps calling out Richard’s beauty kills me - first he’s attracting everyone’s attention like the panda at the Ueno zoo, then he’s a walking advertisement for men’s suits, like please Seigi I stg He does seem like quite the elegant gentleman though, I have to say 
I have such a weakness for pretty gentlemen characters you guys, help me 
Also I think I figured out at least one reason why the grammar keeps confusing me - sometimes people are talking within quotation marks and other times they are talking but without quotation marks, and it’s taking me forever to figure out what’s going on when people are saying things not in quotation marks (particularly when it’s happening in the middle of a conversation that is in quotation marks) 
Like it’s paraphrasing what was said, but not “saying it” in quotes. I think. Is kind of what’s going on. Hopefully.
