the world is quiet here

a series of unfortunate events, by lemony snicket

[amiserableseriesofevents]

Reading ASOUE as a child, I didn't end up with a Violet Baudelaire complex (tying my hair up every time I have to think), or a Klaus Baudelaire complex (reading a shit ton of books about everything), but a rarer third thing I like to call a Lemony Snicket complex (I am very very sad, I write, I love desperately, and I still hope for the best)

The above, but also I ended up with a Sunny Baudelaire complex (I am sensory seeking and love love love to bite)

“You never love a book the way you love a book when you are ten. It is an honor to be in that sacred space in some children’s brains.”

“I’m not a baby,” Sunny said, and hugged her. It was the longest sentence the youngest Baudelaire had ever said, and as Violet looked down at her sister, she saw how true it was. Sunny was not really a baby, not anymore.

“Cliffhanger” Lyrics - Cut Song from ASOUE Season Two

Lemony Snicket Sometimes a story is over But it only seems just halfway through There’s unfinished business Hair-raising suspense And lingering mystery too

You might feel upset with an ending like that If it’s really an ending at all You might feel as though You’re on top of a cliff And nobody knows if you’ll fall

Lemony Snicket/Violet/Klaus It’s a cliffhanger, a cliffhanger A story that cuts off midway The world is like this, it’s a cliffhanger Day after uncertain day

Violet You might think you’re a hero So it follows the hero will win But now you’re tumbling Goodness knows where It’s a nerve-wracking state that you’re in

Count Olaf Or you might think you’re a villain With a scheme that you hope will prevail But with this and with that You don’t know where you’re at Except midway through some anxious tale

Count Olaf/Esme Squalor/Troupe It’s a cliffhanger, a cliffhanger And it cuts off before it’s polite The world is like this, it’s a cliffhanger Night after uncertain night

Hook-Handed Man Maybe the villain has henchmen

White-Faced Women Henchwomen

Henchperson of Indeterminate Gender Or Hench-I-don’t-know

Bald Man/Hugo/Colette/Kevin They’re stuffed in the back of a car They can’t drive

All the Henchfolk And they don’t know where next they will go

Esme Squalor Maybe somewhere there’s a beautiful dame Who’s riding besides some smart guy She’s had quite an exciting Time on the road But now she might leave him high and dry

All the Villains It’s a cliffhanger, a cliffhanger  It stops when the end is near The world is like this, it’s a cliffhanger Year after uncertain year

Mr Poe Maybe you work for a powerful bank

Mrs Poe Or a newspaper everyone reads

The Poes Maybe you try  To do everything right But surely we know where that leads 

Jacquelyn Maybe you’re part of a secret

Larry A secret that holds you in thrall

Lemony Snicket But the truth is a secret that everyone shares

Jacquelyn/Larry/Lemony Snicket The whole world knows nothing at all

Entire Cast It’s a cliffhanger, a cliffhanger We’re all on the edge of a knife The world is like this, it’s a cliffhanger Life after uncertain life

It’s a cliffhanger, a cliffhanger When it’s night, when it’s noon, when it’s dawn We’re all in suspense which is why we look tense It goes on and on and on (it’s a cliffhanger!) On and on and on (it’s a cliffhanger!)  On and on and on and on and-

Violet Baudelaire Aesthetic

Anyone who knew Violet well could tell she was thinking hard, because her long hair was tied up in a ribbon to keep it out of her eyes.
