I think I may be too invested in Mark's write-ups.
That's what I was wondering. The phrasing seemed weird, but if you are, that's precisely the phrasing that describes it. I guess when he pours so much emotion into it, the people that like that are matching with more emotion too.
It's pretty much why I run screaming from the room.
I tend to think "Poor wee darlings, everything feels so big at that age." Then I feel old and cynical and go back to reading about the jewelry of the royal family.
It may be a reaction to apparent age, he had a very isolated upbringing.
ie: his innocence level seems higher than most.
Was he raised in the wild by Muppets? Because that's the impression I'm getting from how intensely *everything* must be reacted to.
I would think by this time some of the tropes of storytelling would be sinking in.
Mark Reads. Again, like the first time. All over again.
I just wish he wasn't so in love with Saint Cordelia. Makes me want to vomit.
