crime and punishment: dunya and marfa petrovna / dunya and sonya anna karenina: kitty and anna / kitty and varenka
every great russian novel needs a naïve but ultimately sensible young girl who has weirdly explicit homoerotic tension with an older unhappily married woman of dubious morals, and subsequently also becomes completely captivated by and devoted to an extremely pious young incarnation of virtue and charity cast to the margins of society by some nebulous misfortune within instants of meeting her

reading a tolstoy and a steinbeck back to back is actually giving me so much whiplash bc i went from anna karenina where tolstoy gives the point of view of the upper class landowner being ohh so saddd bc hes so upset he exploits his workers feel bad for himmm and puts his own hypocrisy and fetishization of the working class on display vs grapes of wrath showing the true depths of the strength of the working class and the real tragedy of the dehumanization of workers and complete disregard for human life by the wealthy... lets just say i feel even more ire towards anna karenina today AKNSMDMDKDK
#typing this from an amazon warehouse so u can see how i feel abt it#oh theres so much more i could say but sighs..#its really wild how i still see this. today. with rich leftists acting like tolstoy on the fetishization of workers#anyways#amory rambles#john steinbeck#i dont wanna tag this as tolstoy bc im being mean..sowwy.. i dont like him..#KDMDMD

In chapter 111 we were introduced to 'that man' if you all remember. That mystery man was the most formidable foe of Fyodor before Dazai. Most of you must have wondered about the mysterious man who was able to tackle Fyodor far back (the newest chapter had it confirmed that Fyodor is a old rat) before Dazai was even born. However, your attentions might have soon drifted off to Dazai and Chuuya because they are alive and the events that have forth occurred. A few hours ago only I had read the whole chapter again and after looking into it I suddnely had the urge to write this article. Hence, here I present you with a theory about who the mystery man could be alongside some insight in the possibilities of Fyodor's ability as well!
My first guess about the mystery man was, Leo Tolstoy. if you got interested in literature after watching bsd just like me, then you must be familiar with the name. Don't worry I too haven't read anything of him but i figured that some research won't hurt :3. so, where was I? right, you may now question why had i jumped to this conclusion? well to answer your query i would like to ask you the name of the newest bsd chapter--right it's ressurectio or-if you happen to read some other translation-ressurection. Now, guess who have a book named resurrection? Yes! it's none other than Leo Tolstoy!
And hey, now we are going to be introduced to Fyodor's ability soon if I am correct. so, it's damn sure that the ability is not crime and punishment so...what could it be?
let's try looking back to the name of the new chapter. I think you get it! what if Fyodor never existed? what if it's Tolstoy in Fyodor's body? theories about Fyodor having a ability to transfer his consciousness through blood are circulating around internet, but what if Tolstoy is the one transferring his consciousness through blood?
There is also a possibility that Fyodor can steal other abilities because in the book crime punishment raskolnikov, the main character, stole an axe from another character and murders some other characters. (I haven't read the book and all this information is from wikipedia) so there can also be a possibility that with his ability crime and punishment, Fyodor could have stolen Tolstoy's resurrection?
Ofcourse, it is very likely that my theory can't be correct and may sound stupid but this all is written for fun and to share my views to others! whether you would like to think about it or not, it's your decision reader ^^ .
funfact- tolstoy didn't liked Dostoevesky's writing style but liked his book notes from the house of the dead meanwhile Dostoevesky was pretty chill about it and liked Tolstoy's book anna karenina and even called it perfect!if somehow Tolstoy do end up in bsd then i would love to see their dynamic ><
Then, I shall take my leave to give you some time to think!
If you liked my perception, i can also give you a theory about who Mori could want in the pm! i would write it anyway but if you wish then i will write it sooner :3

I wasn't prepared to be a scared young boy
I wasn't prepared to be read like Tolstoy

You kinda scare me and I wanna let you

what is your opinion on pebill… do you love my babies 🥰 (if affirmative response then details 😓)
i don’t know enough!! if i am to answer in complete honesty, i must declare i think sybill is a bit too cool for peter…two key defining traits i associate with each of them are sybill’s complete lack of regard for What Anyone Thinks Of Her, and peter’s complete contrast to this. even in canon i feel like he is a character who is very self-conscious, and extremely fearful of being ‘left-out’. i personally don’t think he actually was left out, but being amongst strong characters like james and sirius is certainly enough to strike the fear of being on the outside into someone, and so i see him (and remus, to an extent), of being very aware of ‘How He Looks’ to others, and developing a very severe case of ‘Caring What People Think’, which is nowhere to be found in the carefree, free-spirited sybill trelawney.
but whilst i see them as having two fundamental differences in character, perhaps that is a reason they can work so well together. sybill’s complete lack of interest in Upholding Images or Trying To Fit In could be so liberating for peter, who frequently worries about doing the Socially Appropriate thing. when he’s with sybill, he doesn’t need to worry about impressing james or making sure sirius likes him- he can be himself, and she will like him for him. as for sybill, i think, whilst i stand by the fact that she is and always will be much cooler than him, i also think that her being with someone like peter could be really good for her: being with someone ‘normal’ (ie- no prophetic visions, no fascinations with animal corpses, no obsessions with various types of poisons…) is an excellent way to keep her grounded. peter is able to calm her down from any fits, he is able to remind her of the small things in life that are still important, he is able to make her feel like she is living a worthwhile life outside of her visions. peter makes HER feel special- he doesn’t care for her because of her Gift, he cares for her because She Is Her. the same way sybill cares for peter because He Is Him, not because he is bending himself in shapes to make himself more appealing as he often does with his friends.
in conclusion my dear eva, this ramble started out with me claiming to not know enough and then proceed to think about it for a few minutes and form my own gorgeous image of pebill in my mind. they remind me of bartylily (forgive me for mentioning that blasphemy in your presence) in the way that they are a pair that Truly See Each Other, in a way that all of the others around them don’t, and that is why they find themselves drawn to each other.
#a#on another note they’re both just little freaks who bond over collecting rocks or old russian literature#↤ peter pettigrew would unironically LOVE war and peace and feel so smart for liking it#and sybill trewlaney would connect with tolstoy on a spiritual level at the age of 14 but nod her head enthusiastically as he rambles on#she makes him a patchwork blanket and he adores it but leaves it in his bedroom at home because he’s scared it will get ruined in his dorm#peter pettigrew#sybill trelawney#pebill#eva tag#t
