Jesus I get bored easily.

I got bored and figured that instead of reading Reborn for 18 hours of the day, I should go do some of my Humanities project. I never knew that World War I was so much like high school gossip. 8D

"They [Tsar Nicholas II and his wife, Alexandra] did not believe in asking others for help, it would make them look weak. But [Gregory] Rasputin got in because he ‘saved’ Alexandra’s friend’s life merely by saying her name to her over and over. He was called to heal their son, Alexei, who had hemophilia. Rasputin had some serious problems; he loved lying and drinking and sex, and fucked every high society woman he laid eyes on, and raged around in restaurants in St. Petersburg."

Granted, that's my wording, but still. XD Now, this ISN'T my wording, and is from a Russian website article that's been translated:

"Rasputin was shown to a lower room, complete with a table covered with sweet pastries and he was told Irina would be down shortly. All the pastries were laced with deadly cyanide."

It also amuses me that it took the Russians like. 6 months until they realized Alexandra of Austria was Austrian. GOOD JOB, RUSSIA. 8D
