It will get cold again eventually. The summer will not last forever. I’m not doomed to live in this unbearable heat for all eternity. <- said while gripping the countertop so hard that the tile is starting to crack

Once the dead man is revived, we can ask him five questions, at which point he will die again, never to be re-revived.

I am what you want me to be And I'm your worst fear, you'll find it in me I am flame and I am fire I am destruction, decay, and desire

Actual quote was like, "He should have been dancing at the Chaumière, as young people have a moral obligation to do."

One more late contribution to Barricade Week. I think M. Gillenormand is one of my favorite characters from the book. He is not a very good guardian, but everything he does is so funny. I had to pause at the end of this chapter to draw this.

it's so fascinating how we joke about barricade day like it’s a time loop. are any other fandom holidays treated as such? are other holidays in general celebrated this way? every year by our own fanaticism it resets and we go down the same path and make the same jokes. "surely this year the people will rise." but that's the point isn't it ? we keep on going, just as the stage show is performed again and again. revolution does not end. injustice persists, the fight for change persists, and therefore so does our need for this story. "So long as ignorance and poverty exist on earth, books of the nature of Les Misérables cannot fail to be of use" and such...

« His beauty, at that moment augmented by his pride, was resplendent, and he was fresh and rosy after the fearful four and twenty hours which had just elapsed, as though he could no more be fatigued than wounded. »

(imagine being so hot that even the guys about to execute you hesitate for a moment)

happy barricade day! I can't believe I actually managed to finish something in time this year. anything for this charming young man capable of being terrible I guess <3
