a series of unfortunate events is really the blueprint for characters doomed by the narrative like i think that series changed my brain chemistry forever… the title tells you how the story will end and the author repeatedly tries to warn you away but still you pick up the book. the first sentence is that it’s a tragedy and you keep reading anyway.. you read through the whole story and it’s terrible and tragic and unfortunate and then after you’ve stayed up late reading it under your covers with a flashlight, you go to your school library as soon as class is over and check out the next book in the series because you need to know what happens even though really, you already know. the end is right there in the title, it’s there in every page .. before the story even begins you know it’s a tragedy and you read it anyway and—

I was cleaning out a flat file and these Unfortunate Events drawings. I don't remember how they were used but thought they were fun.

Happy (???) 25th Anniversary to Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events!

(It was yesterday actually but I was to overwhelmed by a few things to post this across every platform)

[drowninginredink]

The one detail in Penultimate Peril that I will never, ever get over is that Lemony Snicket smokes. He shows up and offers to take away the Baudelaires, and he's smoking a cigarette.

All through the series, fire is the ultimate Bad Thing. The good guys are firefighters and the bad guys are firestarters. Arson is the worst crime. And the Baudelaires' descent into moral ambiguity is shown through them starting multiple fires.

Lemony Snicket might as well be the poster boy for VFD. He was raised in it since infancy. He lost Beatrice because of the consequences of being a volunteer. He has been on the lam for at least fifteen years because of his dedication to it. He lost both of his siblings to it. There are plenty of people in the series who question VFD and its motives, but for all it's done to hurt him, Snicket is very loyal. He does point out some flaws, but not as many as you'd expect.

And yet Lemony smokes. Lemony starts fires every day to feed his own addiction. He carries a lighter or matches with him at all times, just like the villains do. He regularly engages in a massive fire hazard. He says himself that a man who smokes cigarettes is somewhere in between wicked and noble. I want to know how someone so deep in VFD even started smoking.

I think the one thing I am the saltiest about Netflix not including is that. Truly Lemony being a smoker is everything to me.

asoue hit different when you were like twelve and had emotionally abusive parents but you grew up homeschooled and isolated so every adult you had access to was friends with and/or exactly like your parents so when you told them you were met with "oh that's normal" and "your mom's a really nice lady though" and you just kinda looked at the baudelaires like "fucking same though"

something I respect about A Series of Unfortunate Events is that it both never talked down to children—either in terms of sugarcoating dark & tragic subject matter or avoiding long words & complex concepts (like, the first book revolves around a child marriage in which the villain forces his adopted daughter to marry him so he can steal her fortune, & relies on explaining multiple legal concepts in family & marriage law)—AND still found a way to mature with its readers, with each book building on the complexity & maturity of the previous one
