I'm honestly shocked that since Emotion/Representation aired I've yet to see anyone do anything at all with Felix and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein??? I think about it every day it's literally THE Felix piece of media. It's his entire character thesis. What are we doing guys

I KNOW I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT IT THE OTHER DAY

To be fair I have seen a few people headcanoning it as one of Felix’s favourite books (Which yes. Absolutely. 1,000,000%) but there hasn’t been any fics/art/edits/etc. about it yet to my knowledge. My copy is at my parents’ and in French but I am tempted to find an English PDF since it’s been public domain for a good while now. The web weave potential is insane.

I have many thoughts about Felix and literature in general… I have him quote Cyrano de Bergerac all the time in my fics, for example. I was thinking of starting a list of works of art and literature he’d enjoy, so I’ll take this as a sign to get writing! I can get my fandom friends to make some suggestions as well! 📝

Edit: @bittersweetresilience got us covered, our honour is safe 💜🦚

#For now I really need to go to bed but here’s an overview:#Frankenstein and Cyrano of course #The portrait of Dorian Gray for Emilie #Ovid’s Metamorphoses (my sister and I actually wrote a fic about it!)#L’Albatros by Charles Baudelaire (see: web weave)#Psychopompe by Amélie Nothomb (see: other web weave)#J’aime l’araignée et j’aime l’ortie by Victor Hugo #She walks in beauty by Byron for Kagami #East of Eden (I’ve yet to read it but the movie is one of my favourites to this day)#Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux #The Odyssey and EPIC #All of Magritte’s art but especially La Grande Famille & L’Empire des Lumières & La Trahison des Images #Stuart Semple’s entire vibe #I wonder what he’d think of Bauhaus art actually. The entire philosophy would create conflicting feelings I’m sure #Danse Macabre by Camille Saint-Saëns #Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D minor #He’d also prefer Salieri to Mozart while also detailing how Salieri actually made a name for himself every time the topic comes up #OH and he has the biggest crush on Milady de Winter #And Zagreus from Hades #miraculous ladybug #felix graham de vanily #tumblr asks
