"I never wanted you to look at me the way you're looking at me right now."
I am so sick

the James and Meredith acting scene DAMN i stopped breathing there 😮‍💨😮‍💨

I think I stopped breathing during the James and Meredith scene that was so hot in such a fucked up way BUT ALSO PLEASE NONE OF THESE PEOPLE ARE OKAY I am so scared for the ending

where are the Howl vibes Sylvester is so boring 😔😔

I don't care if it is Foss's (is that her name??) curse that makes her in love with the sorcerer why did we just have a deep traumatic conversation about Sylvester's past and at the end she's like "it looks like I snuck out of his room after a night of debauchery....I wish it was a bit of debauchery" BRO just spilled his heart out to you and you're just so horny wtf

Act 4 here I come!!!

thank you hoopla 😛
PLEASE HOWLS MOVING CASTLE AESTHETIC PLEASE DELIVER

HOOOOOLY SHIT

And, scene:
finished with act 1!! HOLY CRAP IT GOT INTENSE RICHARD WHAT THE FUCK I am so scared for James honestly I have a bad feeling about him

only 60 pages in but it is getting INTENSE
(It would be really helpful to have read ANY Shakespeare)

"What is more important, that Caeser is assassinated or that he is assassinated by his intimate friends?"

But also...I fear this is when I admit I have never read any shakespeare AT ALL

I just realized the last 20% of this is the footnotes which means I am (technically) 73% done not 53% LETS GOOO I legit thought I was going insane for reading it so slowly while reading so much but I get it now

release me from this booooooook (not even that I hate it or anything but I kind of didn't realize how long it was when I accepted the arc I WANT TO READ SOMETHING ELSE)
not me accidentally signing up for an almost 500 page book that I thought was like 350 pgs max

Ok I am enjoying this so much finally
ALSO LOL Hades told the gods that if they have any problems w him marrying Persephone to direct all missives into the Phlegethon (which I know is the river of fire from PJO 😝😛)

"Basically, the king of the gods created a generation of mankind who would always have a friend. From birth to death, they could never be lonely. [...] Did they not see this boy who was so alone, who couldn't admit a single moment of weakness? Who wanted more than anything else to have someone he could trust? Did they not feel it too?"

using my percy jackson + goddess girls + d'aulaire's book of greek myths childhood for this one!!!

I feel like it has been forever since I have read a fantasy (even though it literally hasn't) sooo may as well start my arc 😏😏 also bc I desperately need something digital to read

"I entered the room where the corpse lay, and was led up to the coffin. How can I describe my sensations of beholding it?"

I am literally tearing up (AND I KNEW IT HAPPENED) this is so painful 😫 GODAMNNNNNN

"No, it is not thus; your form so divinely wrought, and beaming with beauty, has decayed, but your spirit still visits and consoles your unhappy friend."
and
"these ineffectual words are but a slight tribute to the unexampled worth of Henry,"

SOBBING ☹️☹️☹️☹️ victor and henry.... this is so painful....

"The crime had its source in her: be hers the punishment."

crime and punishment like the famous russian novel by mr fyodor dostoevsky?!?!?!?!?!?!??

"No, but I was educated by a French family [...] I am now going to claim the protection of some friends, whom I sincerely love, and of whose favour I have some hopes."

Sobbing bc creature he is so hopeful...the way he keeps referring to the family as his friends I am so sick....VICTOR YOU STUPID MAN
also the way Victor is definitely going to hear all of this and be like "idgaf you horrid demon w/ no empathy!!" bffr
