It's a very detailed start and gives two very different, yet uncannily similar situations of the princes. I like how they both are adamant about marrying, and the fact that now one thinks that the other is attractive it'll be a slash. Your descriptions are lovely, and I love Vladimir - how he steals to give to the poor, and does it without a damn.
Your grammar is flawless, there's just a few slip ups in spelling and sentence structure. I probably won't be able to tune in for the rest of it, but I'll try my best.
