I somehow forgot to comment on this! (I seem to have gotten a little lost, oops.)
Fritz defends himself by saying he has super secret sources for both anecdotes and so he KNOWS it's true, which is typical
LOL
then he adds fine, a beginning has been made, who, asks Lu, and Fritz says "Canitz", a poet in his grandmother's time.
HAHAHAHAHA oh Fritz, never change.
- Fritz' Gluck dislike is based on having the first act of Orphee performed on an arrangement for Cello, piano and violin. That's it. Totally qualifies him.
This is the bit where I just kind of choked. I... what? Fritz! You're a musician! I expected better of you! I could also totally see Gluck's charm not coming through at all in a trio arrangement, omg.
- if you're wondering how Fritz handles dead Voltaire: Voltaire was the worst! The WORST! Let me read this letter of Voltaire again, and mine to him to you out loud, because there's some fine poetry in it. Also, here's a story of Voltaire being witty. We haven't read Voltaire enough recently. Did I mention he was THE WORST?
...speaking of Fritz never changing!
- at one point they talk about vampires, I kid you not; Fritz of course calls them a total superstition and wonders that there are people who are otherwise sound sceptics who still believe in that stuff, which makes Lu think Fritz might be one of those people after all. (Basis for a vampire AU?)
So I think you meant "those people" to mean the people who still believe in that stuff, but the first time I read it I parsed it as "Fritz might be a vampire." Which I guess doesn't exactly fit (he goes out in the daytime, he probably liked garlic) but would definitely make for a hilarious AU.
MT: All right, generals, prepare to move out. Everyone got their standard-issue silver bullets?
