What she says: Im fine
What she means: in “bring him home,” Jean Valjean implores God to rescue Marius, keep him safe, and bring him home to Cosette, but in the end, it is Jean Valjean himself who accomplishes this feat, implying that Jean Valjean himself has somehow taken on the form of God. Later in the musical, the ensemble sings, “to love another person is to see the face of God,” meaning apparently the face of Jean Valjean. basically what I’m saying is, you don’t truly love someone until you see Hugh Jackman, crouching in the distance, perpetually in your peripheral vision. He’s not there? You don’t love anyone sorry I don’t make the rules

Feuilly and Valjean are best friends

It’s obvious that it must be so.

  • Both are hard-working people.
  • They like to sit around and complain about all the noisy, naive students.
  • They’re working on a business plan together so that they can start a company with Valjean’s money and experience and Feuilly’s skills and determination.
  • Even though JVJ likes Marius, he can’t help to wish sometimes that it was Feuilly who was marrying his daughter.
  • He’s just such a fine young man and sometimes he gets teary-eyed thinking about how amazing and kind and clever this boy is.
  • Sometimes when Feuilly comes into the musain, the Amis jokingly says “oh look, Cosette, your new dad is here!”
  • They go fishing together
  • Feuilly absolutely adores JVJ because he’s just such a good man okay and he looks up to him like the father he never had
  • And Jean Valjean just loves having him around because he’s so clever for his age and he comes with great advice.
  • They share the same horrible humor and Courfeyrac will actually leave the room when they both show up because he “can’t handle this madness!” (if he doesn’t leave he’ll end up crying of laughter in a pile on the floor)

Feuilly and JVJ constantly making dad jokes.

Jean Valjean is the master of doing suspicious and/or strange things with really good intentions like he literally broke into people’s houses in the middle of the night and left them money like he does others so many kindnesses but he goes about them in the worst ways omg what an absolute star 

Musical!Valjean: He’s like the son I might have known, if God had granted me a son!
Book!Valjean: I can’t believe I’ve gotta drag this shabby fuckboy all the way through the goddamn sewers… doin’ it for Cosette, though. Doin’ it for Cosette.
