Check out the opera clips at Rheinsberg!

(both the real-life place, which [personal profile] selenak found out hosts a festival for young opera singers! and the community [community profile] rheinsberg)

Also! our fandom has been producing lovely fic at a rapid clip (okay, well, [personal profile] selenak has):

Sibling dysfunction: Promises to Keep and My Brother Narcissus

Sibling dysfunction PLUS sibling M/M love triangle: The moon flies face to face with me

being Voltaire, would believe he can have his cake and eat it.

This I can believe.

Naturally, younger Voltaire would not listen to this advice, either.

This too.

Younger Voltaire: God, I hate that man and his interminable verses.
Older Voltaire: Good. Give me the book. Trust me on this one.
Younger Voltaire: Hell, no. I *earned* that godawful poetry. I'm keeping it so I can look at it every day and reminisce about how he is the WORST.
Older Voltaire: But you just said it was godawful.
Younger Voltaire: What does that have to do with anything?

(Yes, I know he didn't have it with him in Frankfurt, but he also still owned it and he was traveling, so...I submit that once he settled down and had all his belongings, he was going to be reading excerpts every day so he could get himself worked up and maintain that dysfunctional high. :P)
