if you're wondering what the big deal is about the louis-philippe sentence in les misérables, it is, in the original french, 760 words long. the subject of the sentence doesn't appear until 95% of the way through, at word #711; the main verb is word #712. the sentence contains 91 commas and 49 semicolons and is almost entirely a list of laudatory adjectival phrases describing the erstwhile king of france. this is perhaps especially notable because les mis is, shall we say, not known for being particularly gung-ho about the monarchy.
this sentence copied and pasted into Word takes up more than one page single-spaced. in the 1800-page folio classique edition, it is fully two and a half of those 1800 pages. that means that les mis is 0.14% this single sentence. more of les mis is made up of this sentence than earth's atmosphere is made up of carbon dioxide (0.04%). if the page count of les mis stayed the same but every sentence was the length of this one, les mis would consist of only 720 sentences total.
incidentally, guess who named hugo a peer of france 17 years before the publication of les mis?
#he also goes on for another six pages after this but by then he has remembered the existence of the full stop#the endnotes say that hugo 'se devait de faire [ce portrait] aussi favorable que possible à la personnalité de l'homme#qui avait favorisé sa carrière' (had to make this portrait as favorable as possible to the character of the man who had favored his career)#in fairness to hugo it's not like louis-philippe was alive to read this. so he wasn't just sucking up to get something out of it#he says at the end of the chapter that this description is 'entirely disinterested'. which like on the one hand i get#bc like i said louis-philippe was not in power and reading this. but otoh victor 'ancien pair de france' hugo u r not exactly unbiased. lol#les mis#lm 4.1.3#i just looked up the english translation and gasp! hapgood turned it into four separate sentences!!!!#so i think y'all who are reading it via les mis letters (which uses hapgood i think?) are gonna miss out on the full experience :/#my posts#linked to#syntax#idk if i got this across but the worst part is that the subject of the sentence - the beginning of the independent clause -#doesn't occur until the very end. so for the first 95% of the sentence you're just waiting for the bass to drop!!!#like reading it out loud you have to raise your pitch at the end of every dependent clause because you haven't gotten to the subject yet#AND THERE ARE SO MANY CLAUSES!! 49 SEMICOLONS PEOPLE!!! FORTY-NINE!!!!#victor hugo would be TERRIBLE as a hype man. he would take so long that the crowd would tear him to pieces with their fingernails#before louis-philippe could come out on stage. and then they'd be so mad at louis-philippe for inspiring him that they'd tear LP apart too#actually i think i'm using hype man wrong. i'm thinking of the guy that gets the crowd hyped up for the main guy before the main guy#makes an appearance. a hype man is the guy who makes interjections during a song. victor hugo would be bad at both of these#like just imagine the announcer at the beginning of a basketball game. and now...your starting lineup...at power forward...#and then he just says the 760-word louis-philippe sentence.#dead. murdered at the hands of the fans. microphone shoved down his trachea.

Je connais pas assez de francophones IRL à qui je peux envoyer ce genre de truc out of the blue mais j'aimerais que vous mutuals FR vous sachiez que je suis en train d'écrire une fanfiction Louis la Brocante où le seul truc important qui se passe c'est que Louis pète un câble et tabasse Macron. Mais y a une intrigue et tout. Voilà

Like the rest of you, I think there is SO much good going on in Amy Manford’s Star Princess costume in the Restaged Aussie Tour. Nice silhouette, lovely twirl, gorgeous neckline ruffle echoing the pointed bodice shape (look at photo 4 and 6!), star-and-moon tiara, actual boots, no ballroom gloves to distract from the overall look. Yet... yet I have one complaint.
No, it’s not the lack of beading in the costume. I know that’s not the Restaged look. Here they’ve really maxed out what they are probably allowed to do within this scheme. It’s also not the neon colours, which just is what’s to expect from the UK style. I don’t even bother commenting on that these days.
But... no decorations whatsoever in the back? That is a carnal sin. That’s where Maria Bjørnson always excelled. She did not make frontal looks, she made sculptures. Always details in the back, the sides, the front, from above, from underneath, so the costumes look splendid from all angles and almost double as set-pieces. In Manford’s dress the ruffle stop at the shoulder, and there’s not a hint of hotstones or stars or any sort of ornamentation in the back. Nothing to rest the eye on, nothing to add a hint of “kritzy-kritzy”. Which also makes the bulky closure stand out like a sore thumb. Continuing the ruffle and maybe accentuate the pointed back, like in the front, would have made such a difference.
And I KNOW this costume is not meant to be dissected to death in photos, it’s meant to function in a live setting, dancing, twirling. But I still think those simple touches would have made it so much more vibrant. Because that front and those accessories are gorgeous, and the back should live up to it.

Hello!
A Calum Hood request please where the reader is just feeling a bit sad and he does little things like holds her hand and gives little pecks etc
Anything sweet really because I just feel a bit sad too haha
Suree!!
I hope you feel better soon <333
Pairings : Fem! Reader x Calum Hood
Warnings : Sadness, crying
She didn't feel like it was her day today. It had been happening since morning. Maybe it was the dream she saw at night. Or her constant turning in bed. Calum was nsoring away to glory and that was one way to keep her at bay for some time.
She felt peace whenever she saw him.
It had been a few years since they started dating. They now have a house together. And 3 dogs. The boys and their partners crash at their home sometimes. She felt happy indeed but there are days she feels helpless. She knows Calum is there with her and for her but it has been hard.
While she was razing her legs, she got a tiny cut but it hurt. While she walked out of her house, her pants got stuck in the door while she was closing it and saying "bye" to Calum and her dogs. Her car was less on fuel and she had to reach her office on time. She had to meet with important clients for her company. She met them. That part of her day was still fine. Lunch came, she realized she ordered the wrong takeout food dish. And then a small cactus plant in her office poked her finger. That small poke gave way to so many tears she burst crying. Evening came, her colleagues bade "goodbye" and "see you tomorrow Y/n".
She replied with a very tired hug to them and s small little smile that could've been found only with a magnifying glass.
"Honey, I'm home" she called out entering her home.
Calum ran towards the main enterance to greet her. He seemed so happy. He gave her a long hug and a cute kiss on the cheek. He led her to the sofa in front of the TV.
"Heyyy baby. How was work? I have so much to tell you. Oh my god." Calum was so excited to tell her what he did.
"Wait. I'm coming."
He knew her too well. He got her a water bottle and a tiny choclate.
They were both sitting on the couch. Calum looked at her from his side eyes like a small boy and took her phone. He kept it aise with his and took her hands in his. He looked hesitant at first but then realized it was y/n.
"Soo, Valentine's Day is coming up" he said.
They didn't like Valentine's Day but she guessed he was in the mood. They hadn't gone out in so long maybe he might not have that bad an idea.
She was just about to interrupt him when he shut her up.
"I know you don't like Valentine's because"
He took a small pause, smiled a little and then mimicked her "why would you want to show your partner love one day and treat them not lovey the next day or other days. But we should go to this super fancy place babe and-"
She got so lost in his words and then snapped back to reality when Calum saw her smudged liner and kohl under her eyes.
"Y/n, are you okay?"
That question triggered her that she started to cry in front of Calum. She was obbing so loudly Calum's heart hurt physically. He didn't like to see her cry. She was so precious to him. Almost his wife.
He took her in his arms and hugged her lightly. He stroked her head. He held her cute tiny hands. But no wait. They were the same size? No? Anyway, he looked at her small face and kissed her so passionately. He ran her fingers through her hair and scratched it soflty. They were sitting face to face on the couch. When she stopped crying, she laid her head on his arm. Calum stroked her wet cheek and she closed her eyes. She felt a little better after she saw Calum.
"Do you want to talk about it?" he asked her calmly.
She shook her head saying no.
"Maybe later. Thank you Cal. I would probably be devasted without you."
"Cmon y/n who isn't?" he threw his hands in the air laughing.
They laughed lightly in the calmness of night with their dogs.
