modern au where valjean not only gets a father’s day gift from cosette, but also from marius, eponine, and gavroche. actually the rest of the amis give him gifts too. he doesnt really know when, why, or how he became an honorary 2nd father to 10+ sorta adults, but he loves them all anyways. hes very overwhelmed and touched and happy and in at least 3 cards he is addressed as Father Supreme.
Courfeyrac sat down at a table in the Musain and sighed. It’s empty. It’s always empty now. Now that everyone’s gone. The light and warmth that had always radiated from Courfeyrac was long deceased now.
An old book lying on a table used to calm him, but now he only thinks of how Combeferre was reading until just before the end.
A piece of red fabric that he might have seen as a sign of hope he now sees as the fabric Enjolras was clinging to as he was executed.
Fiery red hair was once a sign of passion to him, now he remembers only the stark contrast between Feuilly’s red hair and white, lifeless face.
An empty wine bottle thrown on the floor once would have made him laugh, but is only a reminder of the one Grantaire had finished before joining Enjolras in his fate.
Once he would have had fun with a playful brawl, but all he can think of now is Bahorel’s fiery spirit up until the end.
The sight of a hospital used to induce compassion, while now he can think only of Joly’s fear of getting a cold on the barricade.
A spilled drink at one time made him pity, but now there are only memories of Bossuet’s mishaps even until his final one.
The happiness he once would have found in a sunflower reminds him only of the one Jehan was wearing when he died.
If all the things he once found joy in were dead and gone, what was the point of carrying on? If life is for the little things, and there is only hollow sadness in those, what is life for? There is nothing, Courfeyrac decided. And there’s really no point in life if you have no more joy. So why should I even try? Why not join my friends? Anything must be better than nothing.
Enjolras: Every so often would just get out of his chair and lay on the floor. Said he needed a break.
Combeferre: Pulled out a bag of lettuce every so often and would just eat it straight, claiming it helped him think.
Courfeyrac: Started a trend of calling the math textbooks “Bibles” and crossing himself each time he opened one
Bahorel: Begged teacher to tell class about the Charles Manson trial, and discussed it with her for a -timed- 28 minutes.
Bossuet: Attempted to get the class to sing “All I Want for Christmas is You,” but could not.
Joly: Wrote a countdown to his death on the board, starting in October and ending on finals.
Grantaire: Walked into class on the first day, saying “What’s up homies, ready to smoke crack and fail math?” And dropped the class two days later.
Jehan: After the teacher took away her calculator, she cried audibly for two minutes, then proceeded to stick googly eyes on her face and not do any more work.
Marius: Declared that doing math would not match his future career path, a lawyer, and continously called it immoral. Passed class with a 97 percent.
Cosette: Tried and failed to convince teacher that sudoku puzzles should count as math.
Eponine: Left class earlier and earlier every day until the teacher said something to her.
Hi! I’m so sorry, but I don’t know where to find a post like that. I feel like I know what you’re talking about, but I have no idea where it came from.
Welcome to the fandom!! This is going to be super unprofessional and not at all Victor Hugo-worthy, despite coming straight from the book, but c’est la vie. All these pictures come from the movie, which is why most of them kinda suck because they really don’t get the screen time they deserve but oh well. It’s the most accessible adaption of Les Mis so it’s nice to have faces to look for!
I’m gonna go ahead and put this all under the cut because it’s a lot longer than I thought it would be.
