I’m in the middle of David Copperfield and had a vision for Dora so I had to make a little sketch

I got a sunburn yesterday so I’m sitting on the couch with a wet washcloth over my face and I feel like ivan karamazov

The Three Musketeers Characters as Billy Joel Songs

d’Artagnan: Somewhere Along the Line | “Well, I know it’s just a matter of time when the fun falls through and the rent comes due”

Athos: I’ve Loved These Days | “Now as we indulge in things refined, we hide our hearts from harder times”

Porthos: Easy Money | “When you’re counting on a killing, always count me in”

Aramis: State of Grace | “Granted this world is not a perfect place, still it’s the world that I’m in”

Milady de Winter: Stiletto | “She’s so fascinating that you’re still there waiting when she comes back for the kill”

Constance Bonacieux: Through the Long Night | “The warm tears, the bad dreams, the soft trembling shoulders, the old fears, but I’m here through the long night with you”

ok so I finished it and my opinions remain the same except I have a bit more faith in Athos

well fellas…it would feel wrong to skip making a father’s day post as is tradition so I’m back even though I worry I’ve expended most of the male characters I know that would work for this post

but I’m in the middle of the three musketeers so I’ll do the best I can with the information I have to work with (and yes I know there are sequels that take place decades later but I don’t know what happens in them or if children are introduced so this is just based on the first half of the first book lol no spoilers please)

without further ado…my assessment of if these male characters from the three musketeers would be good fathers:

D’Artagnan: I think he would be. he would enjoy teaching the kid things even if those things are a bit ill-advised. the kid would definitely know how to square up to a school bully

Athos: I would be concerned for the child’s emotional development

Porthos: strangely this is my most confident yes. he would be very proud of his child and when they’re a baby would probably carry them around to show off to all the other musketeers

Aramis: I think he would be I just don’t know if he would want to be. but in a three four men and a baby scenario he’s most likely to be the actual father

M. de Tréville: he basically already is one to our boys so yes

Planchet: sure. he takes care of D’Artagnan who is often quite childish

I won’t do Louis XIII or Cardinal Richelieu or the Duke of Buckingham because they’re actual historical figures. but the answer would be no

adaptation of beowulf but the soundtrack is all my chemical romance

[wretchedvulgarian]

equally amusing is thinking about him teaching kindergarteners (5-6 yo) because that’s an age where kids casually tell you stories that rival dostoevsky and I don’t know how rodya would react to that

sometimes I think about how raskolnikov used to teach lessons to children. like imagine you wake up one morning and your mom tells you that your old SAT tutor killed two people

Another drawing of them <3 I think I posted the unpainted sketch in my secondary blog. I really wanted to try a chiaroscuro effect with the colour pencils, but I always have difficulty painting with the dark browns, so Rodya's hair and coat and the wall don't look that good.

I added some effects on the first one, this is the original

fanart of a book about murder

Sonya Marmeladova from Dostoevsky’s Crime And Punishment.

She is so sweet and I really like her. And don’t give any spoilers please, I haven’t finished the book.

Hope you all have a nice day!

ok so would present-day alyosha know and/or use gen z slang? because at first I was thinking no but hear me out…so 1) he hangs out with lise and kolya who you just know are on tiktok, 2) it could highlight this separation that his brothers feel from him, and 3) it would be funny
