She doesn't know how to act in social settings when something out of the taught norm happens, she doesn't know how to control her expressions right, despite practicing - but she is quick thinker otherwise and can analyze deeper meaning when it's one-in-one conversation.
And she LOVES rocks.
Hey guys... This is a check list... I think we have neurodivergent female lead. \o/
FL is on the spectrum. Genius but really bad at explaining or expressing herself which causes misunderstandings all around.
FL is a bit stupid when it comes to gauging social situations, but i like that it's not glossed over. it's kind of known to be her flaw. the story's interesting for now
Interesting premise. The FL is obsessed with gemstones and is a genius in that field of knowledge. Like most geniuses, it leads to social awkwardness but hers only appears when issues with jewels or gemstones are involved, Her passion rises too quick to the surface and she makes mistakes that could become quite dire socially and, because we are talking royalty here, even coast her life. Other than that, she is savvy and smart as they come. The ML is also in interesting character that is developed here. We get to see his inner thoughts and his process. I'm looking forward to see how things are going to pas out from here.
Pfft! Whatever!! 😒
This is beyond frustrating! Even if something wrong will happen after explaining it, you still shouldn't assume something will go wrong before you even explain. Explain it to the prince, then let the prince decide whether he reveals it or not, he brought you there for that reason! Whether he'll be horrified after learning the truth, it's his own judgement! And yet that prince, is he for real!? Even if he doesn't believe in the rumours, since he brought her there, the least he could do was to de-escalate the situation so that it wouldn't make her impression even worse! What, "it's your own undoing?" The hell!? I thought he should've at least investigated her or something, about her personality or her character! At least his understanding enough that her not explaining immediately has a reason but still!!
