Sebastian de Poitiers quotes from Reign

Sebastian

To see you smile is to feel the sun, your grace.

Mary

Do you flirt with everyone?

Sebastian

Absolutely everyone.

Sebastian

We just need the courage to fight.

Lady Kenna

Not if fighting means dying. I won't risk the loss of you. I can't.

Sebastian

And Mary?

She can never know. She must be able to deny, on oath before God, that she knew anything. It's the only way to keep her safe.

Lady Kenna

This castle used to be fun.

Sebastian

Well, on behalf of France, I'd like to apologize for the plague, famine, and religious violence.

Do you think he was convinced?

Sebastian

I'm not sure I want you to be king anymore.

Queen Catherine

Why are you helping me?

Sebastian

That's a very good question.

Queen Catherine

So much for your investigatory skills!

Sebastian

I helped you and Claude!

Princess Claude

You're just angry with him because Diane was here.

Sebastian

Let's go to Paris.

Lady Kenna

Paris? Why?

Sebastian

Because you love Paris.

Lady Kenna

But you hate it.

Sebastian

I will love it for you.

Why is Catherine doing this?! I'm her child!

Sebastian

I'm doing this for her other child, your brother, the king.

Sebastian

You mean that you encouraged the love of a man below you in rank? Because he found himself drawn into political intrigues he knew nothing about, with enemies he'd never had before? Because he found himself doing things he'd never contemplated, getting in deeper and deeper.

Queen Mary

Oh, God, Bash.

Sebastian

Yes. I walked this road first.

Sebastian

Renaude? The mercenary?

Lady Kenna

Former mercenary. Quickly becoming Francis's right-hand man. No offense.

Sebastian

None taken.

Now is the time to attack.

Sebastian

Attack? Even if half his army runs, Condé still outnumbers us. Our men will balk.

Which is why I'm going to lead the charge.

Delphine

You will survive this, I promise you.

Sebastian

I'm trying to forget the alternative is an option.

Sebastian

My men will be stationed throughout the tavern, posing as customers.

[Points at Leith] That customer's mine.

Queen Catherine

You are offering me a kindness and consideration I have rarely shown you through the years. Why?

Sebastian

Someone recently came into my life. She taught me to trust where my feelings lead me. I feel love toward my dead brother and anger that people think you could harm him. Those feelings lead me to stand here with you.
