Excuse me?????

the fact that movie adaptations of The Three Musketeers aren’t consistently giving me crazy cat man Richelieu is honestly so outrageous I want to see - NO I DEMAND to see the Red Eminence draw up important documents and plot to destroy France’s enemies while Soumise naps in his lap and Ludoviska tries to knock ink bottles off the table!!! Wake up how are movie studios not taking this excellent opportunity to give us Richelieu lounging on an armchair in the dark and petting cats like a moustache twirling Bond villain hello??????????????????????????????????????

would you guys still love me if i fell in love with a book series about the napoleonic wars? be honest (stephen & jack from the aubrey-maturin series)

another thing I love about aubrey-maturin is how convinced they both are (but especially Jack) that together they cover the whole sum of human knowledge. he’s always thinking, “well, I don’t know that, so Stephen will.” conversely the things he does know, Stephen doesn’t. Like the meme:
