What I say: I’m fine (:
What I mean: In the 2018 production of Les Misérables in London, during A Little Fall Of Rain, all of Les Amis look at Ponine and Marius, except Grantaire who after a while just stares longingly at Enjolras, as if he wished for the two of them to be in their places, just so he can feel loved by E at least once in his life. Or maybe he’s just now wondering whether his faith in Enjolras is deserving and whether it would have been better discourage him from revolting

NOW LISTEN
I have no idea if this has been said before but anyway. As we know Grantaire was sleeping during the whole fight at the barricade but he woke up the moment Enjolras was ready to be shot to death and died with him. So, what if Grantaire sleeping and then waking at the right time was a parallelism with the people of Paris? We can easily reach to that conclusion considering the uprising of 1848. Like Grantaire, the people may not have been present during the June Rebellion but they actually rose when they felt the time was right. Grantaire was not there in the fight, but rose only when his instinct told him it was the right time. And Enjolras saw it. He saw that despite doubt and despair, in the end there would always be hope. And he smiled before he died, not only because Grantaire had finally joined the cause, but also because he would not be the last one to do so.
The Brick: *anything about Les Amis*
The Fanbase: yes, having read this passage over 150 times in French, English, and Italian, I can deduce that… *rants for an hour*
The Brick: Grantaire was ugly
The Fanbase: I’m sorry, I don’t know what this says, I can’t read

for @williamvapespeare for asked for “grantaire getting the hug he deserves”
Grantaire in Ravenclaw? Are you high? No way.
Grantaire: “I’m an idiot!” Proceeds to go on five page rant proving that he’s intelligent, including classical references up the ass
yall i remember that one post that said george blagden’s bottles were filled with grape juice while filming les mis and CAN YOU IMAGINE what if R actually just drinks bottles and bottles of grape juice and everyone just assumes it’s alcohol no one actually knows what’s in it and R never bothered to tell anyone so every time someone gives him the Disappointed Look™️ when they see him drinking he’s like???? why do they have a problem with me drinking juice?? why do all my friends hAtE mE????
AND ONE DAY during a meeting someone (let’s say courfeyrac) goes hey R can i have some of that and he’s like yeah sure and the MOMENT he realises what he’s drinking he spits a mouthful of GRAPE JUICE all over the place and he’s like “R IS THIS??? G R A P E JUICE??” and R just?? yes?? what did you think it was?
“and you’ve been drinking THIS the whole time?”
“uh yeah?? i just never understood why all of you have a problem with it. i mean yeah it’s not the best fruit juice yknow like apple juice is great and all but i personally pre-“
“R HAVE YOU BEEN DRINKING GRAPE JUICE AND ONLY GRAPE JUICE IN THOSE BOTTLES THE W H O L E TIME?”
“yes? did you.. did you only just find out?”
“GRANTAIRE WE THOUGHT YOU HAD A DRINKING PROBLEM WE WERE ALL GENUINELY CONCERNED FOR YOU”
“I HAVENT HAD ALCOHOL IN 2 YEARS”
and everyone just.. the meeting doesn’t even happen because everyone just needs to lie down.
BONUS:
“wait a minute… if you’ve been sober all this time then why do you.. you know.. why have you been acting so?? intoxicated? we were all so convinced you were always ALWAYS drunk because of how you act”
“THATS MY PERSONALITY THATS JUST WHO I AM”
ok so has anyone ever considered stage actor enjolras and techie grantaire???
some important points
– grantaire most definitely plans his lighting cues exactly when they make enjolras’ hair glow like a halo
– enjolras always playing the leading man/love interest characters because he’s just so beautiful and has the voice of an angel
– because of all the women that he very convincingly kisses on stage, grantaire is so sure he’s straight
– this doesn’t stop grantaire from flirting with him whenever possible (and most definitely missing sound and light cues because of it)
– when costumer jehan tells grantaire that enj is gay as hell, he couldn’t be happier
– stage manger combeferre is definitely done with all of the pining and shit like come on guys its distracting from the show
– enjolras’ fellow actors cosette, courfeyrac, musichetta, and marius keep trying to tell enj that grantaire likes him, dammit, but enj is having none of it. theres just no way, and besides, itd distract from the show
– the very small pit of éponine, joly, bossuet, montparnasse, and floreal (who i really should talk about more)
– feuilly is the set designer and he builds them with the help of his boyfriend bahorel and they are killing it
– valjean is the director
– no, cosette got in on pure talent
– valjean aint about that favoritism life
yes he is
remember how whenever grantaire was around enjolras the words describing him were “gently” and “sweetly”
#inDESCRIBABLY SWEETNESS #TENDER GAZES #THE LIGHT AROUND ENJOLRAS SOFTENED IN RESPONSE TO HIS STEELY FOCUS #GRANTAIRE PERCIEVES ENJOLRAS AS A WALKING SHOUJO BUBBLES MOMENT WITH CHERRY BLOSSOMS FLOATING EVRYWHERE #I JUST #flutters hands. pinches bridge of nose. tries not to cry. #awful awful awful
Courfeyrac: What’s the gayest thing you’ve ever done?
Grantaire: Your leader.
