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.
Super quick scribble that was going to be part of a really short comic.
The scene from my fic ‘Chasing A Ghost’ where eight years after the fall of the barricades Combeferre discovers Enjolras alive and living in a small town outside of Paris. This is the scene where Enjolras introduces a very shocked and confused Combeferre to his son, Camille, making Combeferre wonder just how much has changed in those past 8 years.
Basically,
Combeferre: Enjolras why is this small human here.
Enjolras: I made it.
Combeferre: *shocked Pikachu meme*
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
Monsieur, this is my emotional support tree. :-v
everybody’s talking about the sex scene when the real question is if tholomyès is gonna sing a spanish song or not

“My version will be more accurate than that awful musical!” Andrew Davies proclaims as he desperately reads through sparknotes on Les Mis
thoughts on the bbc trailer
- some of the visuals (most stunningly jean valjean on parole and the barricades, but also the costumes of jean valjean as mayor and fantine in general) look strikingly similar to the 2012 movie?? i’m not even mad i just don’t understand how we ended up here again after all the bashing
- we’re also back at trying to pretend there is a happy end…please protect the first time viewers…i went to the cinema unprepared in 2012 and i know how it feels…
- on a positive note, i like that it seems we’ll see fantine before things start to go downhill as it could really add to her as a character that’s not solely defined by the things that happen to her. on a negative note, i feel the sex scene with tholomyès creeping up to us. it’s lurking out there…waiting…
- is this…is this a waterloo flashback…are we actually doing this because i’m genuinely here for it
- mentally preparing myself for a total of 15 minutes les amis de l’abc and insurrection without any historical context though. but possibly the trailer just doesn’t want to scare people off this family-friendly christmas series
- i told myself i’d just watch this series as another adaption that i didn’t really care about, why do i suddenly care
- weirdly annoyed by the valjean & cosette scenes
- not 100% sure why
- my man mabeuf ups my total score of this trailer by at least two points
- seriously though i’m not over how much this looks like the 2012 movie
