1, 9, 20 for the salty ask

1. What OTPs in your fandom(s) do you just not get?

Oh God, so many. Javert/Valjean seems most obvious–they have their own lives to lead, they’re not obsessing over the physicality of one another.

Éponine and Enjolras, too. Hugo himself basically says Enjolras is either gay or ace, and I just can’t help but feel like Enjolras and everything he does is opposite of what she wants for her life.

9. Most disliked character(s)? Why?

Hmmm…this is tricky because Hugo intentionally writes almost every character in a moral gray area (except Myriel). Thenardiers seem an obvious choice, or Tholomyes, given that they’re pretty far on the charcoal side of gray, but even they’re instrumental in illustrating Hugo’s point about society.

I’m gonna call it a toss-up between The People of Paris for staying in their beds and Vicky Large himself for living the way he did.

20. What is the purest ship in the fandom?

Bossuet/Joly/Musichetta: totally unproblematic, balance each other out perfectly, good communication. They are perfection.
