Liveblogging Henri de Catt's diary! MAN I wish my French were better, I'm sure I'm missing a lot of good stuff. But this little gem jumped out at me.

You know Fritz had a totally paternal love for Fredersdorf, three years his elder? He's now being paternal toward Voltaire, seventeen years his elder!

Voltaire: *writes whiny letter about how Fritz doesn't love him*
Fritz: *responds like a tender father who wants to lead his son back onto the right path*

That's Fritz for you, always the tender father and chill older brother.
