...ou la mort.

it seems that everyone tends to focus on the events of the radical Revolution, and pretty much ignores everything from 1789 up to the CPS coming to power. i shall be even worse, though, and start from just before the Great Terror, for the sake of conceitfic. also ended up simply using their names - as a result the fic manages to sound both pretentious and incredibly silly at the same time - and chickened out on drawing direct parallels with specific historical characters. :\ i confess to writing this mostly for my own amusement.

i suppose i should probably go off and eviscerate myself with an orange-peeler, now, but i haven't the energy.

( the french rev AU i swore i would never write. yes, like the lokislash fic i swore i would never write, and the ginko&adashino backstory fic i swore i would never write, and so on. )
