Re: your tags on that post about villains being ugly and stuff... so the Denouements are a f*** you to this concept since they look and dress identical and have one ‘villain’ and two ‘heroes’
see it’s not that the denouements are ugly it’s that they’re all pretty normal bc that’s how you blend in by being normal and if the kids are told to tell based on looks and mannerisms, and they’re all the same, then how do they? If anything that’s why klaus trusts Ernest bc ernest is super nice to him and treats him with respect so that can’t be evil. ernest uses his earnestness to his advantage. but maybe the villains and noble peeps think the same thing, which is why people can trust ernest, or not trust frank, or trust frank and not trust ernest. ya know. we all thinking nice = good don’t tell me you haven’t. I know I have. that’s how I ended up with shitty roommates twice I trusted nice equals good but nope
