Comment on A Cabal of Paris

  1. Noooooo don't hurt him! My own tender heart won't be able to take it! (*evil snicker* oh who am I kidding, I'm so here for this pain!)

    1. Listen, the hurt and the manful swoon are at the heart of the request!

      1. He does excel at the manful swoon, just like he does at everything else. And he's very excellent at getting himself in trouble!

        1. Oh yes. It is the manfullest. And the swooniest. Somebody might kiss his pale tender handy-wandies to help him recover

      2. THERE WILL BE MANFUL SWOONING???

        Hurrah for the return of the fainting maiden! Is this because of blood loss, traumatic injury (to himself or others) or the bruising of his tender susceptible heart? I don't care if a few proles bite the dust, but be careful with the tender heart! Don't batter it too hard :-)

        1. Yes indeed! This was was commissioned by Ysande, who requested Athos getting hurt and suffering manfully, and that's what this is all about (poor Descartes just got dragged in to flesh out the background a bit :D). There might be some deaths along the way, but nothing serious, and worry not: the tender heart cannot break yet! That wouldn't be canon.

          1. Your patroness is a person after my own heart! And remember, Athos: we only hurt you because we love you so :-)

            (I'm sure that was a great consolation when step-mother's curse worked itself out - love means pain!)

            1. I'm sure Athos' understands. He suffers so beautifully, he only has himself to blame for our desire to witness his pain over and over again.
