Thank you. There is nothing coherent I can say about the Robespierre/Éléonore sex scene. It is just hideously, hideously WTF? While I can just about see Éléonore's motivations, what the heck were Robespierre's? I mean, if he needed the sex that badly surely he could have done better for himself than that thoroughly creepy mercy fuck. He was rather popular with women, after all.
I just don't get why she needs to vilify someone that badly.
Incidentally, I'm scrawling my own bad rant on PoGS. May I put a cite link to this translation?
