I've said this before but valjean's view of the bishop throughout the book gets me so bad because like. he knew him for what, a day maybe? and it absolutely had a vast & profound & positive impact on him. but then he goes on to spend the whole book comparing himself to his idealized vision of the bishop & finding himself wanting & feeling guilty and miserable about every petty or selfish thought that crosses his mind. but it's so fucked up because like we as the readers know the bishop better! we've read the whole first book and we know he came from a privileged & wealthy background, that he was a rake when he was young, it wasn't til he was in his 40s or 50s to have some sort of change of heart & become a priest (a similar age to valjean when he met him!), that he has moments that seriously shake him, that he has some dubious politics left over, that he still has moments of pettiness he has to work through on the page (his initial approach to the member of the convention, e.g.). and also he's just kind of a weird old guy (affectionate). and like this is not to criticize the bishop, I think he's a genuinely really good guy, just that while the bishop has a realistic view of himself & his past ("he described himself with a smile, an ex-sinner,"), valjean is not getting any of this except maybe like. what would be mentioned in the newspaper when the bishop died. so his whole view of him is of this one shining moment where he changed his life and he feels he doesn't live up to that. which is sad! because the bishop understood him more than he realized & wouldn't have wanted him to feel that way

The Players Of The Last Game Of The Marvellous
So last summer I did a lineup drawing of The Light Fingers crew, so i thought it'd be fun to do another lineup this year.
This time i tackled the main characters from Heart's Desire, including my own PC in order to not have the poor monkey tiny on the ground next to everyone

Natasha: [reading a book as she walks and glances up] Morning.
[Peter, standing on the couch and holding a vase full of flowers over his head; Yelena, lying on the ground holding up what is clearly Clint’s bow; Kate, jumping around the room and attempting to grab it back; Wanda, holding a katana over her head and spinning in a circle]
Peter, Yelena, Kate, and Wanda: Good morning!
Natasha: [keeps walking and reading]
Natasha: [pauses]
Natasha: wait, what-
Peter: Don't worry about it.
Natasha: Okay, then. Don't get yourselves killed.
