Oh, it's simply lovely to make your acquaintance, M. Candide! I'm Jehan Prouvaire; just Jehan is fine! :) <-- look! it's a smiling face!

...Everything happening for the best... that's an encouraging thought. :) I rather believe that things happen for a reason, but not... always for the best. Still, it's so lovely to see an optimist!

Typist: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH.

Tell me who you are so I may die happy and worship you even in death. THANK YOU. OMG. ;_; It's Candide.

*he bows politely and smiles* Greetings, sir!-- Jehan, I mean.

But, you see, it isn't quite optimism; it's merely a way of life, and a result of how I have learned to live. Everything happens for a reason, and not all those reasons are good -- that much is true. However, in the end, everything is also ... not necessarily happy, but at the pinnacle of its progression. ... O, if only I could find Cunégonde again; then I would prove myself right. *he starts to fret again*

T/N: *waves and is evilly secretive* ♥

Oh, I see! *thinks for a moment* Well.... perhaps it is true. Ultimately, it all depends on how one looks at situations. It could all be for the best...or all for the worst, or -- anyhow. Haha.

Oh, I am certain Mlle Cunégonde will make an appearance soon! Don't worry. *attempts a reassuring smile*

Typist: Oh please oh please oh please. I'll write you a fic. I'll jump off the Empire State Building. I'll juggle. I'll do anything. Pllleeeeaaasse, my darling evil typist?

The absence of the fair Cunégonde, my dear boy, is for the best. Her presence would not be possible in the best of all possible worlds, for is this not the best of all possible worlds, and is her presence not lacking here and now? Ergo, the absence of the fair Cunégonde is absolutely needed for this world to retain its position as the best of all those possible, until her presence is required for precisely the same reason.
