Epilogue
Epilogue
I finally decided to tell Tori about the charcoal sketch. I invited her, and she came to my house. I showed her the sketch of Alois Vilhelm and said that he might've been the inspiration for my family members' names.
"Interesting. Who do you think wrote the endearments?"
"I don't know. The portrait dates from 1819, so the person who wrote it must've lived during those times.."
"The naming of Louis variant names was started by your fifth great-grandfather, right?" Tori asked.
I think about it for a while. "I don't think he's the one who wrote it, Tori. He's born in 1815, so he probably wouldn't address Alois by his first name."
"You're right, Al." Tori continued, "And it couldn't be your sixth great-grandmother, since your sixth great-grandfather and her divorced a year before."
Suddenly, I remembered about the exhibit.
"Tori? Remember about that letter from 'Victor'? What if.. what if Victor was indeed my sixth great-grandfather, and this Alois.. was his beloved?"
"We can't confirm it yet. We need more proof."
I replied quickly. "I got the sketch from a secret storage under my bed! Maybe there's more things in there!"
"Let's check it!" She turned on the flashlight function on her phone. I opened the secret storage and pulled out a pile of unsealed envelopes.
With shaking hands, I opened one of them and examined the content. A love letter for 'Victor', signed by "Your Beloved". Tori held Alois's sketch, and we compared his handwriting to the letter.
"It fits," we said in union. Then, Tori quickly opened her gallery app, viewing the letter from 'Victor', then comparing it with the endearments behind the sketch, and finally, to Claus Chasterell's handwritten original script of "The Knight and The Elven Bard".
"Is it him?" I asked. She nodded. "Yes, it is Claus's handwriting."
"So, does it mean, the reason my fifth great-grandfather named his son Alois.. is because Alois Vilhelm dated Claus Chasterell?"
"Yes."
We both looked at each other. We did it. We found out who's this Alois my family members are named after.
His name is Alois Vilhelm, and he's my sixth great-grandfather's lover.
(A/N : sorry if this is so rushed, guys! I just wanted to make sure this wouldn't end up unfinished like Cosette and Louisette.. also the secret is pretty guessable isn't it?)

It's kinda baffling how some people still think that the Pompeii eruption happened because of gay people lmaooo
I'm a tea person, I guess?
Pools, because why not.
Comedy movies because I'm a scaredy cat sksksk
Rain, because I live in a place where there's no snow
Are you a coffee or tea person? Sea or pool person? Comedy or horror movie person? rain or snow person?
Nothing pisses me off as much as the genocide funding fast food chain trying to clean their name by putting up a banner claiming that they have donated a teeny tiny bit of their revenue to Palestinians
It's been a long time since I drew nicc.. and I've never post any drawing of him in tumblr.. so here's the drawing
( I know it's not really good, but well, I tried. )
WIBTA if I messed up the count's ritual on purpose so I could bring my partner back to life?
I (20sX) am a mage hired by the count (30s-40sM) who rules over my region to help find a cure for a plague that has been dooming all of us for quite a while.
There have been many victims of the plague, including my (soon no longer) deceased partner, and the count himself. As he grows more desperate, he asked me to perform a ritual involving the major arcana (like, the actual figures represented by the cards) which would transfer his soul and conscience to The Fool's body.
However, I have a better idea. What if I used the ritual to resurrect my partner instead? I mean, it's a selfish thing to do, but to do it for the count would be equally selfish thing on his side, and besides, he was the one who brought the plague here and no one actually liked his snobby, selfish ass, so.. would I really be the asshole if I were to bring my partner back to life by messing with the ritual and let that count die?
Some other OCs (no drawings tho, sorry) (Also tw for mention of murder)
•Theodore Pellerin (1848-1924), Cosette's father, a solo pianist who also gave lessons to children from rich families. Was born to a working class family, earned his wealth from hard work. Also he's quite a wild lad on his youth XD
•Astoria Pellerin (nee Cardella) (1851-1924), Cosette's mother, a choir singer who was born to an aristocratic family from Italy. She moved to France with her godparents after the murder of her father (the murderer being her own mother). Because of the horrible things her mother did, she tried her best to be a better mother to her own children (and she succeeded). Met Theodore in 1874 and married him in 1876.
•Claude Pellerin (1877-1948), Cosette's older brother, a historian who loves to travel. He is the foster father of Charlotte Pellerin. He never got into a romantic relationship and is not interested about it.
•Joseph Guillaume (1850-1919), Louisette's father, an architect. Used to go to the same school with Astoria.
•Martha Guillaume (nee Bonnet) (1849-1925), Louisette's mother, an arts connoisseur. Went to the same university with Theo and is friends with him. Heaven knows how she kept up with his bs.
•Victoria Liddell (1911-1972), a singer who really idolized Cosette. She made some covers of her songs, and one of her covers ended up being more popular than Cosette's original song.(f in the chat for Cosette) (also this situation actually happened with the historical inspirations for Cosette and Vic)

The piece he dedicated to Germi is guitar quartet no. 14, right? I found some recording of that piece! (The movements are separated though)
Movement I:
Movement II:
Movement III:
Movement IV:
Can we talk about THE GUITAR PIECES OF PAGANINI. Jisus, I can’t stop feeling like they’re so underrated, I mean- Listen, I’’m never romantic about music because of personal stuff, but damn… ‘Romanza’. ROMANZA. I feel like seeing a yard of just herb and butterflies flying around. It’s beautiful. And ‘Grand Sonata’ feels pretty nostalgic (maybe because my country took it to make a kids melody…. yikes). It’s just a safe comfort place when I listen to it. And not gonna imagine how GOOD could be the guitar piece he dedicated to Germi…
