i'm definitely totally normal about jude st. francis
*tosses some Jude fanart @ you and then scuttles away*
sorry I didn’t hear you I was too busy rotating Jude St. Francis in my head
Jean-Baptiste Marion
Jude St. Francis
i just cried so hard i was screaming on the floor time to read lispenard street pt 2 to feel worse !
i think about jude’s biological parents everyday actually. why did they leave him? did they regret it? did they wonder if he’d been successful? (he was) did they wonder if he’d actually even survived?
i’m sorry but i can’t stop thinking about jude having to wear one of those wigs when he was training to be a lawyer.
"I was dismayed by how casually cruel or dismissive we are of people who find life too much to bear. The words that we use like 'they're a coward', 'they gave up', 'they gave in', are so unforgiving of what it actually means to be alive with a mind that torments you and a body you hate."
– Hanya Yanagihara, in an interview about "A Little Life
jude’s childhood and trauma was not unrealistic OR outlandish, i suffered it daily and millions of others did too. you are so lucky to be able to think that, and to have never come across some of these people, but monsters like that really do exist
your card declines at therapy and they bring jude and willem during the happy years in (you can’t save them)
Your card declines at therapy and they bring out Harold’s “in everything I see, I see him” monologue from Lispenard Street II
