A little beyond the black corner of the alley and the Rue de la Chanvrerie, which threw a broad shadow, in which he was himself buried, he perceived a light upon the pavement, a portion of the wineshop, and behind, a lamp twinkling in a kind of shapeless wall, and men crouching down with muskets on their knees. All this was within twenty yards of him. It was the interior of the barricade.

The houses on the right of the alley hid from him the rest of the wine-shop, the great barricade, and the flag.

Marius had but one step more to take.

Then the unhappy young man sat down upon a stone, folded his arms, and thought of his father...

...He saw civil war yawning like an abyss before him, and that in it he was about to fall.

-Tome IV, Book 13: Marius Enters the Shadow

This is what Napoleon III wants to take from you

I know this is old discourse, but the way that duty has to be put before emotion in the Terror is so tragic.

The Lieutenants having to put their feelings aside and use Irving's body as evidence. Gore, clearly well-loved, never getting a proper send off because Franklin died so soon after. The whole crew having to push on after the deaths at Carnivale, and the massacre after the failed hangings, without catching their breath.

The we’ll mourn when it’s over of it all, but they never did because it never was. Not until it was their turn.

I woke up at 3am, wrote this, then fell back asleep. I don’t know what it means:

“Leave my weapons not scattered in the woods. Let them not be found discarded that they may never find their way into the hands of another desperate man, hellbent on vengeance. May they never take the life of another mother’s son, of another father, brother, innocent. May they rust where they lay, cold and bloodstained at my hands alone.”

Nebulous AU idea I had where Fitzjames and Crozier are both taken prisoner by the mutineers
