Made this meme on my Tiktok page recently about the Jellyfish Sandy skins and how when I went birthday shopping wih my grandma the other day I got a playstore card to get Brawl Pass+ next month for them

Also Classic Brawl is in 5 days and it'll be my first time I'll ever get to open boxes on Brawl Stars (I started playing during Candyland Season- Early 2023) I made an agreement with my siblings that if I don't get Sugar Rush Sandy from the boxes within a week (if the event lasts longer than a day- at least somewhere around or more than a week) that I'd buy the skin with bling because I more than enough bling to get it and have all of Sandy's skins before next month so I'm hoping I can get some luck from Supercell with that

Les Mis Hidden Name Meanings: "Fantine"

Every character's  name in Les Mis is either an elaborate pun or has some deeper symbolic thematic meaning — usually both at once. 

One example of this is “Fantine.” There’s a wealth of hidden meaning packed into to her name, and some of those meanings are explicitly discussed in the original novel. 

The name “Fantine” comes from the french word “enfantine,” meaning  “childike, infant-like.” Her name basically means “Baby.” And obviously this speaks to her innocence and naivety. But also “baby”  is kind of,.,, well, it sounds more like an informal term of endearment than an actual legal name?  

And that’s because– Plot twist– Fantine isn’t her legal name!

 What is her legal name? She doesn’t have one. 

And the reason she doesn’t have one is directly tied to political turmoil of the era she was born into. 

Fantine grew up an orphan living on the streets, without a family without parents. Hugo tells us the origin of her name: 

“She bore on her brow the sign of the anonymous and the unknown. (...)She was called Fantine. Why Fantine? She had never borne any other name. At the epoch of her birth the Directory still existed. She had no family name; she had no family; no baptismal name; the Church no longer existed. She bore the name which pleased the first random passer-by, who had encountered her, when a very small child, running bare-legged in the street. She received the name as she received the water from the clouds upon her brow when it rained. “

This moment is adapted beautifully in the Manga adaptation by Takahiro Arai: 

But now let’s talk about the Directory. 

To wildly oversimplifly a lot of complex history: Before the French Revolution, the Catholic Church’s records of baptismal ceremonies were often used as a�� registry of people’s legal names. During the French Revolution, the Revolutionary government– including the Directory– put in place a series of policies we now call “dechristianization,” where they attempted to dismantle the power of the Catholic church. 

Fantine was born during the age of these dechristianization policies. So she was likely never baptised, her baptismal name was never recorded, and so she has no documented legal or family name. She’s slipped through the cracks of the legal system, and ended up completely anonymous.

This sets Fantine up as this anonymous child of the Revolution– a stand-in for everyone who was left behind when the Revolution was left behind, and kings were restored to the throne. 

Fantine’s namelessness is meant to show her isolation. She has NO support system. She has nothing to connect her to other people, nothing to connect her to a support system. 

Finally, the way Fantine tends to “slip through the cracks” is something that follows her throughout her life.  When she’s fired from her job at a factory, Mayor Madeleine never learns  of it– Fantine has this tendency to be overlooked and forgotten in official records.  At the end of the story, she is buried in an unmarked grave, with not even the name “Fantine” on her headstone. She is born anonymous and she dies anonymous.

It ties into the novel’s questions about  which people we consider worth remembering, whose lives are worth being recorded.

so people have been reposting my art :/ it's only happened a couple of times (once on Instagram and now once on Pinterest) that I know of. but this is me making a formal post: if you see my art posted on anywhere that isn't: on tiktok or Tumblr, or under MY account, know that this was reposted and that I did not give my permission. this goes for my writing as well. i do not post anywhere but ao3. if you see it, please report it or send it to me. that doesn't mean to harrass anyone, but just take it down please

[elbdot]

just wanna let you know that a user on DA is reposting your eeveelution design, and others, without credit. they've done the same to me and even removed my watermark so i'm trying to get the repost taken down. do with this what you will https://www.deviantart.com/abifoxgreencrystal/art/Hawkeon-1135171006 i'm trying to track down all the artists this user is stealing from, they evidently know what they're doing since they've cropped and edited mine and other people's work

Thank you SO MUCH for acting on this on my behalf!! I'm like 11 days too late to your message, but I'm glad to see that I can no longer access the page you linked me, which means everything got successfully taken down. I hope the reposts of your art have been taken down as well!

I'm incredibly grateful that I have a community that looks out for me like this, as it's incredibly hard to track down and report all reposts online (with tiktok it's nearly impossible to successfully claim copyright and that sucks A LOT)
