"I ship like almost everyone with Garderobe"
SHARE!!
i mean. she's hot, right? we're all in agreement that she's hot.
adam had a boyhood crush on her when he was like 11 and fliers announcing her latest tours would arrive in the mail. lumiere would complain when his music magazines got swept away by mysterious little hands and would only crop up later with the good pages ripped out
belle has a little fluttery-heart moment when she actually comes to terms with the fact that the wardrobe that's seen her getting undressed for at least a year and a half is The Greatest Singer of Her Generation. like how would you feel if your closet suddenly came out and casually mentioned she's Florence and the Machine. Would that make you happy or would you be unable to maintain eye contact for a while
congratulations! celine dion has seen you putting your bra on backwards. why are you acting like this isn't wondrous news
mrs potts and garderobe? ooh baby that sings. hot italian romance vs prim-and-proper austen level courtship hijinks. i think this can only go well
cuisinier is actually a super huge opera fan!! he's so happy to finally be able to pull himself out of that kitchen (he never wants to see that kitchen again) and go up and shake the great diva's hand. they sing a duet from the mariage of figaro together and collaborate on the first Entirely Sung Through Cookbook™
listen. listen. i'm not saying all europeans are hot feisty little devils who just love to make out behind curtains, but what I am saying is there's a moment when garderobe and lumiere lock eyes on a certain debauched drunken night and there is. shall we say. a Frisson™
cogsworth is too gay to be involved in any of this (i mean come on now really) but i would pay good money to read the love potion fic where cogsrobe is a temporary reality and we're all blissfully living in it
listen. listen. i like beautiful ladies. i will not fuss if you put garderobe and plumette in a room together. i will not fuss if there are small soft kisses. i will not fuss if the kisses turn into something softer, gentler, wilder. i might pass out though
i have nothing to say about chapeau + garderobe as a pairing besides that I think she could pick him and carry him bridal-style over the threshold while wedding bells chime
garderenza we already know my thoughts on. my thoughts are that i'm in love with it and stanley tucci gets my pension

Positive-ish Things that Happened During the Curse
I feel that I’ve made a lot of posts about how terrible the curse was for the staff (I’m not mistaken in doing so, the curse was definitely bad for everyone) but that little voice in my head got me thinking: what if I made a happy post about it? So without further ado, here are a few headcanons about the curse that will (hopefully) make you smile.
Chip teaches Froufrou some new tricks. Garderobe and Cadenza had already taught him the basics, like “sit,” “stay,” “quiet,” and a few other general ones, but Chip decides that “roll over,” “play dead,” “hide and seek,” and a few other fun ones should be added.
In the first few days, Plumette and the other maids cleaned the entirety of the castle. Obsessively. And while this served as a healthy distraction, it was also a way to remind themselves that they weren’t forgotten. It was their own rebellion against the curse, and everyone thanked them for it. The only two places left avoided were the West Wing (for obvious reasons) and the East Wing, because Adam forbade anyone go near it after his mom died.
Cuisinier had control over most of the knives in the kitchen, and with some help from more mobile residents, he carved toys for Chip and Froufrou.
Yes, telekinesis exists. Cogsworth confirmed that some objects are just objects, so I imagine Mrs. Potts can push her own cart, Lumiere can light every candle in the castle, Plumette and the other maids can control the sheets and pillows, Chip can use his saucer like a skateboard, Garderobe can make a dress with a thought, etc.
On the subject of dog toys, the Madame wasted no time sewing little trinkets filled with rice and beans from the kitchens. Though she couldn’t leave the East Wing, Mrs. Potts provided the necessary materials on her cart. It was through this love of crafting (and the precious dog, of course) that Garderobe and Cuisinier, the two stationary residents, became good friends.
They all became snow artists over time. Think about it: the whole castle is blanketed in an enchanted winter, which means an enormous amount of snow. As Lumiere put it, they were doing nearly nothing before Belle arrived. But I can imagine that the staff members--Chip, Chapeau, Lumiere, and Plumette especially--learned how to make the best snow-sculptures ever.
And for those who immediately call baloney on Lumiere being good at it because of his candles, he can and does put them out. And even so, you know you can form ice by melting away parts of it, right? Imagine him making abstract, curving shapes out of icicles, or beautiful, water-like patterns in ice blocks.
Not to mention, any time Chip asks for a snowball fight, the team who has Chapeau with them always wins. And it’s unfair. But it’s fun.
There have been times when Chip has been buried in the snow. It’s all in good fun, but Chapeau insists on watching him every time. After all, porcelain/fine china can crack if exposed to enough cold.
There are some dogs out there that aren’t smart enough to recognize their own reflections, so I like to think Froufrou has no idea what’s going on. Like sure, his mamma and papà look different, but they smell the same, so what’s the big deal?
I think I’ve mentioned this in other posts, but during pre-curse times, Lumiere hosted little midnight parties with music and dancing. He keeps that up, obviously, and after the curse falls on the castle, those meetings descend into chaos (since the walls of the ballroom have playable instruments on them, and the maids can fly). Chapeau usually provides the music, and sometimes the maestro joins in (when he feels up to it--after all, he’s incomplete without his dear one).
Cogsworth hates it, but has absolutely no say on the matter, because he’s outvoted by everyone else.
Lumiere could and did light candles from far away. Maybe it’s just the 1991 version knocking on my brain, but I love the idea of Lumiere just blowing out one of his flames and then having all of the candles in his vicinity flaring up instantly. You need a ballroom lit? Give him five seconds. Done.
Plumette and the other maids tested their wings. On a calm day, they just decided to see how high they could fly, and Plumette made it pretty high before the winds picked up. The quest to find her around the castle grounds was pretty funny...for everyone but Plumette. And Lumiere. Poor thing went cold with worry.
Of course they found her, and of course she wasn’t hurt, but from a bird’s-eye perspective, seeing the staff scramble to “catch the maids” just makes me laugh so much.
Under Mrs. Potts’ strict instruction, Chapeau taught Garderobe and Cadenza Adam’s favorite lullaby, the one his mother sang to him when he was little. If the Beast slept inside the castle, whoever was closest, and whoever was awake, would play it for him. He’d rage and silence them if he was awake, so in that way, his mother visited him in his dreams. It was a sign of the servants relearning to care.
The first big reunion with the beast and the servants was a few weeks into the curse:
For the first few weeks, the Beast was so filled with self-loathing he would avoid the staff on a daily basis, killing things in the forest and eating them, like a real animal. Once Mrs. Potts and Chapeau found out that this was what he got up to when he left, Cogsworth nearly had a stroke and put his foot down. The Beast was doing the exact opposite of what he was supposed to be doing; disappearing into some wild thing was absolutely unacceptable.
They didn’t pull out every stop. To do so would mean pretending like nothing was wrong, and they weren’t about to start that. But they made him dinner--a childhood favorite--and locked the doors of the castle, forcing him to eat what they made. They hovered, out of striking distance, but present in case he needed them.
He ate. He trudged up the stairs to the West Wing. Looked at the rose. And cried. His first good cry in years, one that eventually lulled him to sleep.
He never missed dinner after that.
tagging @lumiereswig and @lumiereandcogsworth because I feel they’ll enjoy this

NOUVEAUTÉS CHEZ VÉRONIQUE ROY JWLS POUR LA SAISON AUTOMNE-HIVER
La marque de bijoux montréalais Véronique Roy Jwls lance sa nouvelle collection, ASSUMÉE, du 1er au 12 novembre, juste à temps pour le Black Friday. Pour l’occasion, un rabais de 15% sera offert sur les nouveautés, ainsi que des rabais sur l’ensemble du site web, incluant une section pour les dernières chances, les imparfaits et les prototypes.
Les 15 nouveautés complètent les collections existantes en s’ajustant aux nouvelles tendances de la saison. Les clientes pourront ainsi mettre facilement à jour leur collection de bijoux. Pour répondre à la demande grandissante, la marque ajoute entre autres 6 nouvelles manchettes d’oreilles en argent sterling ou en argent plaqué or.
La clientèle a un grand intérêt pour les bijoux pour le haut de l’oreille, mais les perçages dans le cartilage sont douloureux et longs à cicatriser. Les manchettes d’oreilles permettent d’obtenir le look désiré sans avoir à souffrir.
“Je veux que mes clientes puissent créer des looks originaux en combinant plusieurs boucles d’oreilles, sans avoir recours aux perçages supplémentaires.” – Véronique Roy
Les gens peuvent se procurer les bijoux en ligne ou lors de deux grands salons d’envergure: le One of a Kind Show de Toronto et le Salon des Métiers d’Arts du Québec à Montréal.
