I Just Think They’re Neat

Perfection🖤

yes all my favorite characters are desperate to be loved. no i don’t think that says anything about me

Literally read and watched C&P after a breakup because I needed him. My mom heard me from the other room: “Come, Rodya. Let’s suffer together.”

"My child is fine."

"Your child's comfort character is Raskolnikov."

@cuddlesforerik Thank you for tagging me!

Yay, this one is about BOOKS. Let’s see…

1. Currently finishing up The Count of Monte Cristo. (Took nine hundred pages for the story to actually start, but dear goodness, it’s so good.)

2. Next will be The Gentle Spirit by Fyodor Dostoevsky (my favorite author to ever exist). This is one of the few stories of his I haven’t read yet, so I’m very excited and have been preparing my soul to be crushed once more.

3. Les Misérables is a must. Finished Notre-Dame de Paris a while back, and I’m in love with his writing style. Truly a master at his art.

4. Bleak House by Dickens. Because nothing that man writes is bad.

5. The Turn of the Screw. A recommendation from my sister, so we’ll see.

6. And finally, Fear and Trembling by Kierkegaard. I started it a while ago, but I was too busy to give it the attention it deserves (30 pages in and could already tell it was a masterpiece), so I’m going to start from the beginning now that I have more time to absorb it properly.

Any other lit nerds out there always associate this quote with Erik?

“Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. The really great men must, I think, have great sadness on earth.”

Crime and Punishment, Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Can we talk about ‘The Siren of The Opera’?

Plus, a doodle sketch of Erik and Daroga when they’re both in Persia…i think🥺because i luv my ghostly magician Erik
