Les Amis as things my friends have done at university:

hapless-and-hopeless:

Enjolras – Made a group chat purely to bitch about Rousseau. Frequently refers to him as ‘That Punk Ass Bitch’

Courferyac – Spent forty minutes applying body glitter to go to a Eurovision watch party

Combeferre – Added footnotes and academic citations to his protest placard

Grantaire – Roamed the city covered head to toe in red paint. Had a photo shoot like this in front of the landmarks purely to confuse the tourists

Bousset – Missed out on Halloween because he fell asleep at 7pm after eating too much pot noodle

Joly – Keeps a box of human bones in his room to study, and failed to mention this until I’d used it as a chair all evening 

Bahorel – Had a light saber battle in the post room, complete with cloaks and Duel of the Fates blasting from his phone. Made lifelong enemies with the porters in the process

Feuilly – Becomes 300% more sassy when he puts a certain pair of sunglasses on. No one is quite sure why, least of all him.

Jehan – Only owns one suit and it’s made of bright purple silk

Marius – Turned up to a supervision in exactly the same outfit as their supervisor (of the opposite gender) Neither of them mentioned it for the whole hour. Hasn’t worn that shirt or jacket since, just in case

Bonus:

Cosette – Broke into three separate colleges just to leave chocolate anonymously in their friends’ pigeon holes and cheer them up

Eponine – Turned up to a protest (same one as Ferre) with a sign that just said “Fuck Off”

Musichetta – Names all the locusts and worms she has to experiment on in labs. Refers to them as ‘her children’ and has a family photo album

Valjean – Sends a homemade meme to notify all their friends whenever the cafeteria is serving garlic bread

Javert – Dragged the entire group out to a field at midnight to watch a meteor shower. It was cloudy
