after having forced me, by unheard-of seductions, to attach myself to him
I am dying.
Die some more when recalling the guy he writes this to is the same D'Argental who as far as I recall was the recipient of Émilie's "it's a pretty rivalry we have" letter re: Fritz and his attempts to steal Voltaire from her. I'm imagining D'Argental reading this and going "as I remember, you were not exactly an unwilling virgin; more like a two timing coquette!"

Re: Voltaire: will you stay or will you go?
Date: 2021-04-01 04:42 am (UTC)I read a few Voltaire letters, because I was missing some "Voltaire totally doesn't care about Fritz anymore, why would you think that??" in my life.
Hee, I totally laughed :D
What may still surprise you, is that the King of Prussia is writing to me today, and that I am busy consoling him.
Ha, yes, Voltaire, that was indeed surprising to everyone else :D
I am interested in his glory for self-esteem, and at the same time I am glad, for reason and fairness, that he is being punished a little.
Oh Voltaire.
