*sporfle*

All of you really need to read Le Chevalier de Saint-Just, if only for passages like this:

—Ainsi, vous vous appelez Louis Léon Antoine Florelle… Vous voyez, je me souviens. Et moi Maximilien Marie Isidore. Mais mes proches m’appellent Maximilien. Et vous, quel est celui de vos prénoms que vous préférez ?

Saint-Just parut un peu décontenancé.

—Que vous dire… Mes parents m’appellent Antoine, mais moi je préfère Léon.

—Et moi, Florelle. Voilà un prénom charmant, et peu ordinaire ! N’évoque-t-il pas Flore, la déesse des fleurs ? L’épanouissement des qualités physiques et spirituelles de l’homme ? Comme il vous va bien ! Vous permettez que je vous appelle Florelle ?

Saint-Just, maîtrisant sa confusion, répondit simplement :

—Avec plaisir. Ce qui vous plaît ne peut me déplaire.

All the more reason why thinking is important!
...You must have some thoughts on the random conversations...come on...

I do wonder why you insist on getting my opinion about this random convo you had with DM...

Well, okay, I liked to know about this part:

—Alors, ça ne serait pas plus mal de l’établir. Tu es minutieux et féru d’ordre ; tu as une liste de « patriotes éprouvés », tu dois en avoir une des « ennemis confirmés ».
—Tu es insupportable.


BWAWHAHAHAHAHA. It sounds like a couple row ¬_¬'

It's not the random conversation, it's the quotes! *sighs*

Precisely.
...although Maxime was kind of right about that. XD

Which makes it even cuter.

Awww, insupportable Saint-Just. One you must not death-tickle.

*snickers*

...You might not want to do that to any mode of Saint-Just.

...the thought was pretty amusing though :P

He certainly wouldn't think so.

[identity profile] estellacat.livejournal.com 2006-06-22 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
I think he would glare.

Glaring would be a nice change to vapid smiles and false cheerfulness.

Well, if that's what you want you'd be in luck hanging around Saint-Just. Vapid smiles and false cheerfulness are not his forte.

That's what I've been saying, you know. And I'm pretty sure many share my thoughts here.

Well then, your problem is solved, is it not?

[identity profile] maelicia.livejournal.com 2006-06-22 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
It would seem.
