i just had the weirdest moment, i was feeling my front teeth with my tongue because they’re the tiniest bit crooked, and then i had the thought “i’ll check if they’re also crooked in my other mouth” and then i realized to my shock and confusion that i have only one mouth, leading me to believe that in a past life i was a terrible monster with two mouths
A few months ago, I thought to myself “Mmm I’m so tired… how much longer in this one again?” and I knew instinctively what I meant by ‘this one’ was this body and this life. I then spend a few wide-eyed moments having an identity/existential crisis like how many times have I been on this earth to have such an instinctive response to being bone-weary to my soul? No one can really answer, especially not me.
one of the nice things about heterosexuals i never see talked about on here is that they haven’t already heard all your gay jokes yet. i just really appreciate having a new audience sometimes for my completely automatic responses to phrases like ‘i’ll be straight with you’. so, shoutout to all the innocent hets out there who have a genuine giggle over lame quips that a fellow queer would groan and hit me for. ilu guys.
I recently no scoped my coworker when she asked me “What’s in the closet, anyway?” and I automatically said “me”. She lost her mind. Full cackling in the middle of the store. I never thought I’d see the day that joke would work but here I was, blessed with an unexperienced heterosexual. It was transcendent.
one time i had to go to the utility closet at work to refill my waterbottle and i said “alright im going into the closet…just like high school” and my straight coworker lost it. she started crying she was laughing so hard
I say this out loud so I can hear it as well and remind myself. It can’t be about ego and it can’t be tunnel vision. You have to experience life as best as possible and don’t panic and rush. These are things I would tell myself ten years ago for sure. — Ramin Karimloo
Maybe the reason for Jehan and Marius being the only ones known by first and second name is that they are the only ones who get the “misbehave and I will call you by your full name” treatment.
As in “Marius Pontmercy step away from that tree right now!”
I am not saying they are the only ones who deserve it.
This is brilliant and I adore it. You can never have enough of exasperated friends trying to deal with their r/Romantic friends’ nonsense.
“Jehan Prouvaire, get out of my garden, there are better things for you to be summoning spirits at half-past midnight!”
“Jehan Prouvaire why are my medical skulls covered in flowers? No, I don’t care that it’s asphodel, you’re going to break them.”
“Jehan Prouvaire, stop looking at the sky! No, I do not care that the clouds are the image of a lobster, you’re going to walk into a lamppost!”
“Marius Pontmercy, you have not slept for three days reading Goethe; go to bed! No roommate of mine will look so dishevelled in public!”
“Marius Pontmercy if you spend any more time sighing wistfully over Napoleon you shall run out of air all together!”
Feuilly definitely deserves this sort of thing (see, the sword), he’s not the most responsible of people, but he seems to kind and wise to be upset with (also everyone fears Enjolras’ wrath). Also, they’re all a bit awkward about the class difference so they’re not too fast to criticise him.
Bahorel would deserve it too, but he’s charming and hilarious so everyone forgives him, although he tends to some Jehan’s chaotic romanticism.
Courfeyrac and Enjolras only need a particular glance from Combeferre for the desired effect (before he turns away grabs another book on the minutiae of honeybees).
Combeferre doesn’t need to be told he’s a mess. He knows. But did you read the journal on ancient surgerical practise, Joly, my the Egyptians sure were advanced, did you know they performed eye surgeries using….
Bossuet has too many names to begin with – which would you use ? Bossuet Lesgles de Meaux is already a mouthful, and if you dared try there’s no way he wouldn’t have you both on the floor laughing about it within the minute. Dangerous.
Joly is sweet and a bit of a catastrophe and if you use his name he’ll either panic about whatever you’re saying – oh, but I heard onions had been used as a blister treatment, you don’t think it works? No, no, that’s not good; what if they spread to my brain, I’d die!
Grantaire is messy enough a soul that there can be little attempt to stop him; only to try and reduce the damage.
hey friendly reminder incest is bad, adult/minor relationships are bad, and any nsfw involving minors is literally child porn (no matter their age) and also illegal to possess! the fact that these are controversial opinions blows my mind and if any of you support any of these things block me bitch!!!
