I really like how they used Louise soot power of manipulating expressions to make Lou close her mouth, making her unable to recite the chant to brainwash Louise. Finally a good use of mental soot power!

Well, well, well, look who's also at the Green Mermaid tonight.
Jayne: Louise. Hey.
Louise: Jayne. Stolen any lawn gnomes lately?
Jayne: Naw. Broken any hearts recently?
Louise: Oh, you know it.
Rosalind: Ugh, I can't believe I have to sit here and listen to this. Do you see what I have to put up with from this bunch?
Bartender: I cannot.

La Mode illustrée, no. 20, 18 mai 1902, Paris. Robe en foulard. Modèle de Mlle Louise Piret, rue Richer, 43. Ville de Paris / Bibliothèque Forney
Description de la gravure coloriée:
Notre gravure représente une robe élégante en foulard crème à dessins de fleurettes bleues; la jupe, montée à l'aide de plis, tombe librement sur la jupe de doublure; le bord inférieur, découpé en courbes, est terminé par un volant plissé soleil.
Le boléro court laisse voir, tout autour, une chemisette en mousseline de soie crème, bouffant sur la ceinture drapée en faille bleue; on garnit le bord supérieur d'un fichu en foulard orné d'un volant en dentelle et noué devait sous un chou de mousseline; l'ouverture est comblée par un petit plastron et un col droit en guipure posée à clair. On borde les manches demi-longues de volants en dentelle.
Chapeau en paille de soie crème et bleue orné d'une draperie de foulard bleu.
—
Our engraving represents an elegant dress in cream foulard with designs of blue flowers; the skirt, mounted with the help of pleats, falls freely over the lining skirt; the lower edge, cut into curves, is finished with a sun-ray pleated ruffle.
The short bolero reveals, all around, a chemisette in cream silk muslin, puffing out on the belt draped in blue faille; the upper edge is trimmed with a foulard fichu adorned with a lace frill and tied under a muslin tuft; the opening is filled with a small plastron and a straight collar in clear lace. The half-long sleeves are edged with lace ruffles.
Cream and blue silk straw hat adorned with a blue foulard drapery.

Last Saturday, madame Robert, wife of a man of letters and known patriot, and she herself the author of several works, passing through Quai Théatins, was accosted by three very elegant little men that told her to put down the three color cockade that this lady had tied to her hat. She refuses. These men follow her, repeating their insolent demands. You can take my life, but you cannot force me to put away my cockade, Madame Robert responded. Still followed and insulted, she took out a small knife and threatened her agressors. One of them points a dagger against her breast, she wards off the blow with a gravure roll (rouleau de gravures) that she held in her hand. Another assassin snatches her hat from her. A fourth arrives, and, taking the braves by the arm, tells them: Scatterbrains, don't go and act like Lambesc; you know that’s not for today. And these cutters, worthy game of the lower court of the Tuileries, fled when they saw some people approaching who were going to avenge their outrages.
Thermomètre du Jour, number 222, August 9 1792
In vain did madame Robert ask for news of her husband, no one gave her any. She thought he was marching with the faubourg. “Yes,” she said to me, “if he perishes I will not survive him! But this Danton who remains in his bed, he, the rallying point, if my husband perishes I will be the woman to stab him!” Her eyes were rolling. From that moment on I never left her side. What did I know what could happen? To know what she was capable of…
Lucile Desmoulins describing her activities during the night of the Insurrection of August 10 (1792)
OK, now I have a much better appreciation for why Lucile took that threat so seriously…

My friends and I did “Friendmas” before we all disperse for the holidays, and we made one hell of a cheeseboard. This was my entire thought process as we devoured it at 11pm this evening.
