To our anon going through depression and self-harm: we’re here for you. If you ever need to talk or just wanna vent your raw thoughts, all you gotta do is send a message. I’ve went through it too, and I swear: it DOES get better. Don’t give up love.

I’m going to add something to what Claudia said about Arno. According Unity novel, Arno was able to speak other languages like English, Latin or Spanish. Also before 19th Century, most of French people who lived outside Île-de-France couldn’t speak French like French people speak nowadays so… they had spoken their dialects; Breton, Occitan, Flemish, Bask, Provencal, Catalan or etc. Imagine, Arno is the google translate of the year lol.
