Sure. Think the distinction is: you don't have responsibilities now. Who are you without those? Maybe you're still queenly. Gotta practice asking yourself what you want instead of what you think you should want.
Tell me something small you hated about being queen. Tight shoes, talking about taxes, getting up at sunrise.
The binge drinking Great Gatsby bullshit, the BDSM nightclub, that's not my scene. But sure, I indulge. Napping by the lake, smoking, expensive food. Might even have some stuff going on that isn't fit reading for the eyes of a queen.
I've had the pleasure and privilege of developing relationships here that, I dunno if they'd survive if we left. Love's my big indulgence, my selfish reason.

[ there’s no comfort to be offered, when she does not believe love can survive under all conditions, however brutal. it didn’t for her. ]
