#I love how Le Bret concedes! How well it plays with the fact that Le Bret in the play always tries to approach Cyrano #about what matters to him and about what pains and worries him accepting only the truth#but all the while making sure his friend is comfortable! Like in that one scene in which Cyrano rages with everyone present #and Le Bret reads him like a book and softly tells him basically 'be mad with everything and everyone to watch but to me whisper the truth' #And I ADORE how this translation has Cyrano interrupt Le Bret in this part. He truly doesn't want to hear it #It goes so well with how he also shuts him up in that other scene with the cadets #as well as with how through the entire play we see Cyrano repeatedly shun this idea whenever a character tries to convince him of the fact #that he is indeed worthy of love for whom he is and that no one really cares all that much about the nose #But he does and he can't believe otherwise and the mere idea makes him react in a somewhat harsh manner and he just won't hear it #By the end of the play we (Le Bret the orange girl Christian Ragueneau De Guiche Roxane the viewer) all know #but Cyrano himself doesn't and he dies fixated on his belief
