“snort...snort...” snorted Prince Nikolai Andreich

every day since i finished war and peace i think about how leo tolstoy was a misogynist

rip natasha you should've been born in 2003 you would've loved calling things girl dinner and filling your closet with swiftly abandoned microtrends

It's don don me suddenly

Tolstoy was just dead wrong about Vera and Berg. They were just having a bad week at that soiree Pierre went to, but otherwise they’re in love and happy okay

Re: Verg im bringing this one back. Rule #1 of reading War and Peace is to not trust anything Leo Tolstoy tells you that man is a liar and he hates women. No relationship is stronger than the one between two haters who judge people together come on now

verg BASED proposal. knew each other for five years before getting married BASED berg waiting until he's financially stable enough to live in petersburg and support his parents BASED vera getting out of her family home the moment they started going broke BASED berg marching up to ilya and saying you Will give me a sufficient amount of money to support my wife BASED

really obsessed with the contrast of post duel 17 benadryl induced ramble dolokhov telling nikolai he's only still alive because he's waiting to meet his perfect other half who will be a perfect woman who's done no wrong and will fix him and make him clean and new vs his bestie being literally anatole kuragin

hyperfixating on a fictional woman who went underdeveloped in canon is literally FUN and the 80-90% of fandom people who only do the same for background character men have no idea of the degree to which they are fucking missing out

ngl having opinions on classic lit is intimidating because people have been studying these books for like one william years and i'm over here on tumblr instead of making sure i don't get kicked out of school. but also who cares here is ivan karamazov's fursona

My secret is revealed…

i thought this response weird because i can clearly see your name floating above your speech so it's no secret at all, but then i remembered that's probably just me and the shinigami thing. you have negative lifespan left btw. around -100 years

re: your tags i do not in fact understand the reference but honestly that makes it better i can’t stop laughing at the absurdity of this response. i have -100 years left to live because i’m leo tolstoy. sure i deserve that for the second epilogue

do you think dolokhov ever actually died.

do you think he's died yet

Funniest line in all of classic literature comes in War & Peace when Nikolai Rostov, shocked by the fact that people in a war zone are shooting at him, says "Are they trying to kill me?? Me, who everybody loves???"
