sometimes i think

Rieux is actually such a self-loathing little guy i love that for him he's so right about that frankly speaking he should pity himself even more than he already does

Jean Tarrou the kind of guy to pet every black cat he sees and walk under every ladder and plan big things for friday 13th and have an open umbrella in his house and keep every mirror he shattered sometimes only half-accidentally

really wish you guys could see all the animations with "the plague" characters i made up in my head they're so cool

it's probably just me but the way Oran is described reminds me a lot of the descriptions of PRL i've heard. the lack of colors, people not caring about anything but their own lives, the shortages of basically everything, queues that last hours, protests, the way breaking laws was handled, the hesitance to act at the beginning of the epidemic, many people losing their jobs because of the plague, even the way new restrictions were announced.... idk does anyone see that too
