Cw: long discussions about religion, abuse in a religious context, religious trauma, orientalism, racism, islamophobia, suicide mention,
Hugo finds a way to specifically make both Stevie and Nemo inscened in 1 (one) paragraph when he totally doesn’t go off at an “unreasonable length” about religion, both local and foreign (racist). The USA says they’ll take abuse from Daddy Britain, nuns’ breasts are crushed in baskets and there’s a harem for God.

Being older than twink faceclaims, bad acting, worse word play, some highly erotic amateur softcore porno and the heist finally gets PLANNED. Warning for some extremely English cold reads of words in French, Latin AND Spanish.

We struggle once again to pronounce French words, there’s a frankly unbelievably good dad and go on the most hijinks-iest Cemetery adventure, except Hugo says Tell don’t Show! Though to be fair, we do our words bad too.

Foot fetish on main, high speed shuttles, salamander hell, and we dunk on Marius continuously for nearly an hour. Also, the state of theatre, and Gavroche is there. Also, Nemo keeps saying Royal National Opera, but actually means Royal Opera House

cw: homophobic slurs, discussion of ableism, classism, racism, police brutality mention,
From a bundle of sticks to a slur, a smattering of Orientalism, we follow some children and we really, really should know who Voltaire is by this point. Also, a monologue on fandom and a conversation about nationality.

More of the same, says Hugo, leading up to the last chapter, the whole point, the boy, the legend, Gavroche, and we meet our new favourite totally-recurring character: Madame Burgon and her three parrots.

cw: references to anti-Blackness, anti-Asian and anti-Indigineous thought, descriptions of child abuse, death mention, brief conversation about Christianity
We CRACK this novel WIDE open once again. Voltaire makes his goddamn presence known again, we take more stabs at terrible French pronunciation, and we fantasise about another really really tenuous old man (derogatory) ship.
