“it would seem a great paradox, the fact that after everything they had told Letty, all the pain they had shared, she was the one who needed comfort.”

I can write entire articles about this quote and it still won’t be enough to translate all the rage i feel whenever i read this

‘Will you be spreading the gospel back home as well?’
‘Home is Oxford,’ Ramy said, blinking innocently. God help us, thought Robin, he’s snapped. ‘Do you mean that Oxford is full of heathens? Good heavens. Has anyone told them?’
😭😭😭

“Do you go to Sunday services?”
Of course.” Ramy did not miss a beat. “I go because i’m forced, where i mumble apologies to Allah whenever possible.”

Peak comedy i’m crying

Ramy my beloved 💔💔

Oh they had it all

“Why are you girls?”
“I suppose we decided to be girls because being boys seems to require giving up half your brain cells.”
The only time letty🚽 had a point

Ramy calling robin birdie since day one and them already reciting poetry to each other the very first night they met 🫩🫩🫩

Annotating this because i feel like crying let’s go
