I love that Jeremy’s thought process is literally: oh we Trojans don’t suppress our anger it’s healthy to express your feelings! Except me :) I’ll keep all my problems buried so deep only the very edges poke out :) have you met my cardboard dog yet?

Quote
And between the two types of brightness he was inclined to favour illumination over conflagration. A fire can certainly create a glow, but why not wait for daybreak? A volcano gives light, but dawn gives even better light.
Victor Hugo, Les Misérables (transl. C. Donougher)

Untuk kamu yang sudah berusaha sekuat-kuatnya perihal segala hal berat yang mendatangimu, kali ini kamu tak perlu terburu-buru, tak perlu menjadi seseorang yang seakan mempunyai banyak bahu hingga bisa menampung segala yang membebanimu, tak perlu menjadi orang yang duluan sampai tujuan untuk bisa merehatkan badan, tak perlu terlalu membebani pikiran untuk hal-hal yang sampai saat ini belum kamu dapatkan. Istirahatlah, bersyukurlah, berbahagialah!

Bakit kahit alam mo nang may nagbago, patuloy ka pa ring umaasa na sana walang nagbago, ganun ba talaga pag mahal mo ang isang tao?

He could not make up his mind whether she was a human being, a fairy, or an angel.

So things are MOVING in The Magnus Protocol huh?? We’ve got Celia who for sure was from last universe- she knows the buried and the flesh and she for sure knows Jon’s voice.
Meanwhile Colin has gone full Gertrude and cut out all the eyes- or ears, in his case. He knows something’s up.
I do think the email is a red herring- the sender is spelled John in the transcript. EDIT: I’ve been corrected on the spelling, our boy might have learned to email. Still would be really funny if it was a red herring though.
Lena is apparently in charge of eliminating people… witnesses? Who’s tasking her with this? Who told Gwen about it???
Also the statement that Jon is reading- being overwhelmed by things that seemed helpful at first? Unhelpful authority? Who is being warned about what here?
And the security firm! I’m pretty sure we’re seeing the old Response Department in action!

Before writing Les Mis, Hugo’s beloved 19-year-old daughter Leopoldine tragically drowned. As a result Les Mis is full of drowning imagery— drowning as a a symbol of impossible grief and loss, drowning as a symbol of being left behind by a society that doesn’t care about protecting your life, drowning as a method of suicide.
The les mis letters chapter today is the first chapter where Hugo highlights the drowning imagery that becomes central to the rest of the novel. The horrible symbolic death Valjean suffers as a result of being entirely isolated and forgotten by a society that doesn’t value his life is also foreshadowing of Javert’s eventual death.
Throughout the novel, Eponine also frequently talks about her desire to drown herself in the Seine; Thenardier monologues about how “the river is the true grave” and when bodies fall in it “justice makes no inquiries;” later Valjean escapes prison by faking his death by drowning, and so on and so on. There’s this emphasis that drowning doesn’t just mean death, it means erasing yourself from existence. It means you’re forgotten.
One of the saddest references to the death of Leopoldine is the way Valjean and Javert learn about the other’s death (or “death.”)
Hugo learned about his daughter’s death not from a family member/friend, but by reading about it in a newspaper. He was on vacation away from his family at the time. He was reading the news in a cafe and happened to stumble on an article about Leopoldine’s horrible tragic drowning, which was how he first learned that she was dead.
When Javert learns about Valjean’s “death” in prison (when Valjean pretends to drown in order to escape), he learns about it by reading it in the newspaper. When Valjean learns about Javert’s death by drowning, he learns about it by reading it in the newspaper.
So…yeah :(. Les Mis is full of all these agonized metaphors around drowning (as a metaphor for death/grief/being entirely forgotten by the people around you) and part of that comes from Hugo’s own deep personal trauma around the death of death of his daughter.
