This is one of those comics where the overall tone is light and sweet but they're not afraid to deal with serious subjects.
The main characters are a prince and princess who are both gay, and their parents won't get off their backs, so they've decided to solve their problems by marrying each other and having romances off to the side.
This plan goes flawlessly. /sarcasm
There's a supporting character who's clueless about her own sexuality, a woman who's very enthusiastic about wielding a sword, a himbo who learns to read, and a supportively snarky trans man.
There's a few uncomfortable advances--one is a genuine misunderstanding and the other is ignorantly malicious. If the latter triggers you, run when you see the green haired guy.
Sapphia (the princess) is also disabled! She has a prosthetic leg, and she gets to flaunt a decked out one at a ball.
This is fun because apparently it started as a running joke--in the original comic, you just never saw her legs, so the readers speculated that she might not have them. The author took this and ran with it, which I think is very neat.
There's some ableism with regards to that when she's in her home kingdom. Nothing too bad yet, but it's very uncomfortable.
Overall, it's a super fun read. I didn't know what to make of the title until I just dove in, and the experience was delightful.

Note to Self - Speaking without Words with Word Balloons
Word gallons are for more than just words. They can be used to emphasis and even add emotions and to a scene
Feeling dizzy? About to pass out?
A lilting playful swirl (Time and Time Again by Deo I)
The white and black of the text has been replaced with a sinister black and the words are off tilter (Sword Interval by Benjamin Fleuter)
The voice is coming from a place deeper and more unsettling and the text is uneven and handwritten
A dismissive comment literally (metaphorically) stabs someone (Marionetta by Míriam Bonastre Tur)
Being interrupted before finishing what is being said
A withering and icy reply (The Secrets of Soulford by the Quincil)
Wobbly uncertain bubbles that even break apart in some parts from dizziness (The Blind Prince by cozycroww)
Pain almost appears to be breaking the usually round bubble into uneven and broken balloons. The little smaller balloons around it are reminiscent of sweat or tears (Heir’s Game by suspu)
