I fucking knew it, Henry you accursed little bitch

Is Henry dying? Like from a terminal illness?

The chapter with Remy again was great. A super upsetting ending, but obviously she was going to be forgotten no matter what. The payment was crushing, taking a moment of genuine physical connection just like all the others—even if only to him. Even knowing the actual truth, it's still so sullying

Received a MAJOR spoiler. I mean, I still don't have context for it, but... like...... my night is ruined.

Addie and Henry's date was cute. I loved Addie's interaction with Remy—that whole scene was a joy for some reason, innocently sweet and fun.

Luc and Addie's dynamic is interesting, a kinda rivalry. Luc is in some ways likable.

Gosh, I'm so pissed...

I am more confident that Henry's cursed but I don't think it's plainly attraction, maybe a matter of perception.

Anyway, the flashbacks to France are bleak—so desperate feeling. I'm super interested in Addie and Henry getting to know each other, character dynamics are some of my favorite things and until now they were flatter, a one way street. I'm excited

Hmm, so Henry's ought to be the rememberer based off the synopsis, but does he have his own curse thing going on? Like a foil to Addie's, where he attracts people or something along those lines. She's a shadow and he's a spotlight—something like that. I hope the two finding each other brightens the mood, helps them with their troubles.

I'm somewhat curious about the mechanics being entirely unmemorable, but it does seem so incredibly lonely. I like this nice temporal back-and-forth going on: the now and her origins. It gives Addie more characterization than otherwise possible (you probably can't change much at 300 years old with an inability to inspire memory).

Kay. So the ring and an after-dark god will be a part of her deal/curse, yeah? I find the basic concept super intriguing: an unaging undying woman who cannot be remembered at all.

It's like dying in reverse, normally your body dies and then eventually your memory dies and you end up really dead. But her memory died long before she will, if she will at all. I dig that
