Quick Rant-
quick rant-
ok so i just got back from camp & i told this girl i liked her. she liked me last year, i thought she was the only person to truly like me for me, & not this idea of me she made up in her head just like everybody else, (we where too scared to do anything about it last year.) she ended up having a girlfriend tho, so we had a long intense discussion about it, & i found out she liked me for the same reason everybody else did, because i’m “not like everybody else,” because “i take things & make them my own.” you might be wondering what’s so wrong w/ this, well u see here, because i’m so “different,” or whatever, people like to make up these ideas of me in their heads that they expect me to live up to, & when i don’t they loose interest. now these ideas are usually the same every time it’s either; the manic pixie dream girl, or the dark & mysterious “rebel,” which i may seem like to some people on the surface, (apparently,) but i am not at all. i’m a fucking geek. i love poetry & classical literature & art & mythology & superheroes & cryptids & classic rock & punk & video games & comedy & dnd. i’m oddly poetic & weird & honestly a mess. i’m not this fucking johnny depp character all these girls want me to be so they can piss off their parents. & im about to get a whole new one pretty soon since now for some reason i look like fem eddie munson, but at least that one i can try to live up to. idk it’s just really hard to live up to these pedestals put in place for me. people say “just be yourself & the right person will come,” but i’ve been waiting forever now. i’m in high school & i still haven’t had my real first kiss. my brother is 11 years old & has had a girlfriend for like 2 months now. i don’t know, it just feels like i’ll never find somebody. i held out for so long for a girl i was all but too late for.

Basic Lit Lesson
Most people in this fandom know exactly three lines from Euripides (Anne Carson trans.):
Pylades: I'll take care of you.
Orestes: It's rotten work.
Pylades: Not to me. Not if it's you.
Now, this is all well and good for understanding Vicky's parallelism with Orestes & Pylades, Achilles & Patroclus, and Enjolras & Grantaire and explains the dynamic well enough,
but
if we evaluate it in context, we find the good kush.
Background: A council is deciding if Orestes will be stoned to death, and things aren't looking good for him. He and Pylades have just decided to run away together.
Orestes: Beware the contagion of madness.
Enjolras: If you join me, you will die.
Pylades: Come on.
Grantaire: Vive la Republique, I am one of them.
Orestes: You won't shrink back?
Enjolras:
Pylades: A friend does not shrink back.
Grantaire:
Orestes: Then let's go.
Pylades: Let's go.
Enjolras & Grantaire:
TL;DR: Y'all're sleeping on some good content.
I've always hc R as Jewish so that makes this 1000 times sadder & 100 times sweeter
Some angst specifically for @definitelygrantaire (you know why!)
Les Amis organize a blockade against a Neo Nazi march, protesters clash with the extremists and fighting breaks out. Couple of the Nazis try to target Enjolras, R intervenes but it all goes badly wrong when someone throws a smoke bomb into the middle of the crowd and armored police goes in…
(R might or might not be getting beaten up, but Enj is always on thin ice with the police, so Bossuet is trying to drag him tf out while Bahorel, Jehan, and Eponine rush to help Grantaire)

peter has naturally curly hair. it’s literally the only thing on his person that he actually makes an effort to take care of. his mask is lined w/ satin so that way his hair doesn’t tangle, & he has tons of curly hair products. as well as a hair diffuser. when johnny spent his 1st time over @ peter’s he was literally so confused as to y there was so much god damned hair product everywhere!!! he hadn’t rlly ever thought much about how much maintenance goes into pete’s curls, but now he knows ig.
