rushing to him VEILED AND DISGUISED as he has been doing AND UNMASKING HIM not for him or herself but her son

i will never experience such a high omg they might have literally outdone odysseus and penelope right then and there

idk what more the count has in store for his enemies but holy shit he has driven villefort insane and i'm pretty sure it can't be traced back to him and even if it somehow were i think villefort is approaching his 13th reason

noirtier's past really came in a clutch for valentine and maximilien

"Doubtless she thought that the count would say something; and doubtless, on his side, he was expecting her to address him. But both remained silent, each surely feeling that a mere commonplace would be unworthy of them."

they're transcending the game

i'm kicking my feet!! edmond and mercedes are SO FATED i'm expecting odysseus penelope level reunion honestly

"A Domestic Scene" nothing about this chapter has been domestic but love to see Danglars suffering

the dinner is the most drama-filled scene i have ever read like two affairs, affair baby, murderer, victim, opps, secrets lovers I'M ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT

"How to rescue a gardener from dormice who are eating his peaces" wonder what this chapter could be about🫤

feels like a feat to reach this point of the book

(also who are the cavalcantis and why are they important to dantes and enemies?)

i fear valentine and maximilien just topped julie and emmanuel, but i stand by what i said: the morrels are THE best household and characters and that includes valentine
