women have such a beautifully unfiltered way of describing people when they're writing from their characters' pov i cant almost never tell whether the characters are really deeply marveled by everyone they see or they're just queer

#i am reading babel guys #are robin & ramy.... u'know.... 💅🏽? #bc honestly from the very first moment they spoke to each other i doubted they were straight #i think im on page 60ish? #😭😭😭 #u better not spoil me anything u rats #but answering that would be nice #this also applies to the secret history tho #like richard describing all the boys?? bro u got something to confess to the class (🏳️‍🌈🧐) ooor... #babel #babel rf kuang #babel by rf kuang #the secret history #richard papen #books #the song of achilles #tsoa #madeline miller #donna tartt #rf kuang #dark academia #annotated books #yes grecia reads sometimes

how am I supposed to finish reading a book and then just move on with my life as if the past 400 pages never happened

#if we were villains #iwwv #dark academia #<- sorry I’m a sucker for that now #reading #why is reading such a pain #julie is rambling #this also applies to #babel by rf kuang #it still lives in my mind rent free and it’s been months since I read it #possibly also #the secret history #tsh #purely because the dark academia vibes are always the same #books #reader

Dead Poets Society but make it Ms. Peregrine's Home but also make it Babel and perhaps Alice in Wonderland:

A school for the quaints and the peculiars, deep inside the forest but also near the sea. You get there with train and get off the station where none of the kids ever come back. Your parents, concerned, not sure what to do with you, send you there. It's the place where there are kids like us. They wish you a nice stay, maybe nicer than home... (be it with the kindest intention, be it not).

There are teachers... I mean of course (adult supervision!), the kind professors or the funky chefs or the kind gardener lady. But here's the catch: the only subjects they taught are humanities. They teach you how to Mozart or Monet, how to Poe or Plato. Dead languages, ancient excerpts, and maybe pentagrams and reliving myths (as long as you don't get caught).

But also here's another thing: you and your funky friend groups (who does not only recite poems or memorize lines or speak 3 languages) (but also talks to the dead, and can float, and could converse with the rabbits) have questions you ought to answer. To where does the rusty door behind the wild grape vines lead? What's behind the towering, dusty bookshelves? Shouldn't you take a closer look at the cave near the beach?

Yes. Maybe it will take you somewhere, another place like this school. A place where there are kids like us. Maybe, just maybe.

That's just what translation is, I think. That's all speaking us. Listening to the other and trying to see past your own biases to glimpse what they're trying to say. Showing yourself to the world and hoping someone else understands.

I kid you not, babblers are prone to lose their mind over languages almost equally to a mixed childs brink of lunacy when they aren't able to express themselves in all languages they know.

there's something really sad about so much of our lives being based around computers and having the language that you need in order to use computers being english

#it gives me the feeling of #well #babel by rf kuang #the deep melancholia of knowing there is something that is almost like magic the intersection of so much human thought #and there being dozens of languages and schools of thought to do stuff with that power and its all in fucking english

«They became what they’d aspired to be since their first year – aloof, brilliant, and fatigued to the bone. They were miserable. They slept and ate too little, read too much, and fell completely out of touch with matters outside Oxford or Babel. They ignored the life of the world; they lived only the life of the mind. They adored it».

«Babel», R. Kuang

His friends: We'll help cover up the murder of your dad.

Robin: But...don't you want to know why I murdered my dad?

His friends: No, dude, we get it.
