oh thanks for tagging me :3. i'm new to tumblr so i'm glad someone is already including me in this activity
these are my six favorite books:
The Gray House by Mariam Petrosyan
Heaven official's blessing by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu
The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov
The Hobbit, or There and Back by J. R. R. Tolkien
Woe from Wit by Alexander Griboyedov
Fathers and Sons by Ivan Turgenev
I often find it difficult to choose my favorite books because all my favorite writers are short fiction writers ðŸ˜. like Bunin, Paustovsky, Akutagawa, Andersen
btw next year i will take exams to enter university. and for the literature exam i will have to read a lot of russian works. (also i want to read more japanese literature). so i think next year i will have a different top of books :)

richard: …so, what i was saying- i was really upset about john lennon’s death
henry: oh, i’m sorry. was john lennon your uncle?
richard:
AND THIS IS WHEN MOST OF THE THINGS HE DID CARE TO TELL WERE LIES
CAN YOU IMAGINE A STRANGER ENTERING YOUR SMALL GROUP, HE IS VERY QUIET AND MYSTERIOUS. HE SAYS VERY FEW THINGS AND IN ALMOST EVERY CONVERSATION HE LIES
Richard "Took a year of pre-med and still couldn't correctly identify his symptoms of pneumonia and hypothermia" Papen
Happy New Year of the Peacock!! 🎉
(As you know, if you seize enough territories in China, any year can become the year of the peacock)
Lord Shen from Kung Fu Panda 2
i feel like Bunny Corcoran and Peter Pettigrew just have same vibes idk i cant explain it
he is like a babygirl and punching bag to me
He makes me crash out, respectfully,,
the purpose of friends is to have people who unconditionally hate your shitty exes & relatives. like maybe YOU have a complex relationship with your father but i sure don't. i'm outside his house with a gun. he's not the unforgivable asshole who raised me he's just an unforgivable asshole
When I was little and read the myths of Ancient Greece, I thought that the ancient gods were very cruel, turning people into trees. Now I am older and I want to be a tree too.
no i dont think richard was "not smart enough" for the greek class. but lets not pretend his monetary status is what kept him from fitting in. Bunny was not rich, despite his illusion of wealth/big rich guy persona and his 'friends' knew this. Even the twins weren't well off, lol. Only Francis and Henry were wealthy.
The reason richard never became a core part of the group (unless absolutely necessary) was simply this: he was boring. he was a voyeur whose sole purpose was bearing witness to something greater than himself (nnnot really. all these guys were kind of pathetic and swept up in the tides of their delusions.)
that is part of the tragedy of richard and his entire story: he wanted, so badly, to be a part of this group, this other-worldly phenomenon that could never really accept him. he got swallowed whole and spit right back out by the very people he had built up to be these divine beings of perfection. He becomes doomed to forever feel the grief of a rejection so in-his-face and the only closure he gets is some fantasy he forces in a foggy dream.
