Thermidorian Cookies--Soon to be eaten!

[montagnarde1793]

Ahem. I give you four major Thermidorians in cookie form:

Tallien.


Thérèse Tallien.


Fouché.


Collot d'Herbois.

They will be accorded the fates they escaped in life, as is suitable. 
...I'm only sorry I couldn't get more of them.

Oh, pish. You could've just made Lacoste look evil.

Are they tasty?

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

But, but--I ran out of cookie dough!

Except for Collot, yes (he got a bit....burnt).

[daughtermestizo.livejournal.com]

Ah. Awwww. *pets* Would you mind terribly if I printed some pics to show my teacher how we celebrated?

Well, it IS Collot.

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

Not at all! ...just tell them to ignore the unusual fatness of the cookies.

True, but you wouldn't think the others would taste any better...

[daughtermestizo.livejournal.com]

Oh yes! I remember now: why the extra fat on Tallien?

Ah, but Collot was ESPECIALLY bitter in real life.

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't know what it entails, exactly, but Tallien died of something called elephantine leprosy...

And Fouché wasn't?

[daughtermestizo.livejournal.com]

...I'll have to look that up.

Well, less so than Collot, I think.

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

I suppose I could ask my mom (she's a doctor, so I figure she would know).

He was with Collot at Lyon, you know!

[daughtermestizo.livejournal.com]

Oh, do! Mine's a nurse, and she's German, so I'm not sure she'd even recognise the name.

I know, but he still did less. After Collot left, nothing quite like the fusillades happened again. Not that I'm excusing him, mind!

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

Wait, the name Tallien, or elephantine leprosy? *confused*

True, but still...

[daughtermestizo.livejournal.com]

Elephantine leprosy. She's certainly not going to recognize Tallien.

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

Ah. Would she recognize any of the Revolutionaries?

[daughtermestizo.livejournal.com]

She knows the names of Maxime and Saint-Just, MAYBE Camille, but that's probably it.

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

You ought to enlighten her!

[daughtermestizo.livejournal.com]

By annoying the hell out of her?

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

...Is that not the usual course?

[daughtermestizo.livejournal.com]

Trust me, it's not a good idea.

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

Why not?

[daughtermestizo.livejournal.com]

She doesn't care, and I don't WANT to annoy her.

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

...I made my family read all about the Revolution. They didn't mean to mind so much...

[daughtermestizo.livejournal.com]

Lucky you!

[estellacat.livejournal.com]

Well, my mom wasn't that interested, but other than that...
