one of the things that makes crime and punishment so fascinating is that it’s about such a horrible thing and what comes after it but also there is just so much love all the time. raskolnikov is going out of his mind after committing murder but can’t stop thinking about how his sister is going to marry someone she doesn’t respect so their family can stay afloat financially. dunya is trying to take care of her horribly anxious mother and support her family through a humiliating marriage but she still finds time to make sure rodya is okay because something is wrong and she knows it. she knows him. pulcheria is so worried and over the top and she’s annoying her kids and she knows it but she gets everything organized so she can go see her son who she hoped could go be someone in petersburg and he isn’t and she doesn’t care about that anymore. she just wants to see him and hold him and tell him she loves him. razumikhin doesn’t really know what’s going on with his weird avoidant friend and maybe he doesn’t know how to heat up the soup he’s bringing to him but he is by raskolnikov’s side at every second and will make sure his family is ok in petersburg when rodya can’t. a thousand horrible things have happened to sonya and all she has ever known is people who will take advantage of her but she just keeps pouring out love

A thing of beauty is a joy for ever: Its loveliness increases; it will never Pass into nothingness; but still will keep A bower quiet for us, and a sleep Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing. -- John Keats, Endymion
