Virago Art Challenge 2018: Day 31Combeferre had just joined us, and at this, he said, “The dormitory at Louis-le-Grand was nothing to remember with fondness, that I can attest to.”“And yet we always found ways to amuse ourselves there, in that horrid freezing old room,” said Courfeyrac, and for once, there was none of his usual coquetry in this comment.“Like the Great Dormitory Uprising of 1819, I suppose?” said Combeferre. “You found that awfully amusing at the time, as I recall.”“Uprising?” I said with a smile.“Our class barricaded the dormitory,” said Courfeyrac.“And narrowly avoided being dismissed from the school,” said Combeferre.“They had to bring in the gendarmes to pacify us,” said Courfeyrac proudly.“I lived in dread of my parents getting that letter from the headmaster,” shuddered Combeferre.“You know,” I said placidly, “Agnès was quite correct in her assessment of you two. You are, and always have been, utterly shameless troublemakers.”–Virago 1831.19Combeferre and Courfeyrac as little Louis-le-Grand scamps, back when everyone still had Napoleonic hair. :3Find Virago here! -- source link
