Little Enjoltaire things

enjoltairemyass:

  • Enjolras having that one strand of hair that curls up at the end and R always tucking it behind his ear
  • long debates on whether dogs are better than cats (R for pro, Enj for con)
  • Grantaire having to do all of the cooking because Enjolras is The Worst at making food
  • He can’t even pour cereal without messing up seriously
  • Always ending up in the middle of the bed when they sleep
  • Enjolras spending late nights in bed reading with his glasses on like an old man and R teasing him for it
  • Grantaire laying his head on Enjolras’ lap as he plays with his hair just listening to him read aloud
  • Dancing in the kitchen to the Beatles at three in the morning when neither of them can sleep
  • Enjolras waking up first in the mornings and bringing coffee to R to wake him up
  • Grantaire being smitten when Enjolras runs his hands through his hair and just swooning
  • Enjolras having a secret drawer where he keeps every sketch Grantaire drew for him (this includes ones on coffee cups and cafe napkins)
  • Movie marathons

You know what the modern au Les Amis fics need? More Jean Valjean.

  • Being a politically aware and a diverse group of young people, not all the Amis have great relationships with their own parents. So, well, let’s just say that for a guy who only has one daughter, Jean Valjean gets one heck of a pile of Father’s Day cards every year.
  • Bahorel challenging Jean to wrestle with him whenever he sees him. Over and over again, and Bahorel always loses but keeps trying and is kind of offended that one time Valjean lets him win on purpose.
  • Jehan and Jean share a terrible fashion sense, they know it and they are proud of it. They take care of complimenting each other’s outfits and then snicker together when everyone else is irritated.
  • Jean Valjean once made the terrible mistake of saying something self-derogatory in presence of the Amis. From there on they made it their official mission to let him know that he is a good person. They joke about it, for example Courfeyrac makes vines in which he films Valjean doing something nice and comments sarcastically “Ugh, that Jean Valjean. Here he is baking cookies again. Disgusting” or “I truly hate that Valjean, look at him here planting vegetables with Prouvaire, he’s such an awful human being”.
  • Valjean once sees Grantaire painting, so he looks over his shoulder and notices that it’s a wonderful portrait. So Jean demands that R paints him a picture of Cosette to put on her wall, you know, what the heck, he should draw ten pictures while he’s at it! Valjean will pay well for each.
  • Jean Valjean is basically a honorary barricade boy.
  • Whenever Joly, Bossuet and/or Grantaire are drunk and they don’t know how they will get home, they can always call Valjean and he will find them and drive them home safely without judging them. One night when he was driving the three of them Joly threw up on his backseat (Valjean made them clean it up the next day) and more than once Grantaire has been so drunk that Valjean has taken him home with him and let him sleep it off on his couch. 
  • Jean Valjean will always listen to them. Even thought it’s an acknowledged fact among the Amis that Monsieur Jean is a middle-aged virgin who has never even dated anyone, they somehow always end up telling him about their crushes and heartaches. He’s also a great person to come out to. And after years of practicing with Cosette, his hugs are rare but pretty darn amazing.
  • Cosette sometimes reminds the other Amis that her papa really isn’t used to being loved or liked by so many people, and that they should try their best to show Valjean how much he means to all of them. They do. Valjean is overwhelmed but happy.
  • Just. Jean Valjean.

orestesdreams-pyladesloves:

grantaire is definitely someone who gives a million different answers to rhetorical questions joly will be like “guess who i just saw” and r just starts listing people “jesus” “mary j. blige” “that woman from home alone 2 who fed the pigeons” or marius comes into the musain like “guess what!!” and there goes r “the 10th dentist finally agreed trident is the best gum” “the government finally admitted that aliens exist”

Out of all of Les Amis, who do you think would be the most likely to randomly show up to a meeting with a baby goat?

See, this is a difficult question not because I think any of them wouldn’t but because I think they all definitely would.

Enjolras shows up in a temper because someone was abusing a baby goat and who does things like that and raging about the injustices of animal abuse while cuddling the baby.

Combeferre is goat-sitting and enthuses about the many and varied uses for goats and has his goat litter-trained and thus figures he may as well bring it out to get socialized.

Courfeyrac confiscated the kid because it was being held as evidence at the police station or something and it was bleating and really, Enjolras, what was he supposed to do, leave it there?

One of Feuilly’s neighbors had the goat but couldn’t take care of it anymore, so he took it in, and it’s still young enough to need frequent feeding, so he brings it to the meeting.

Jehan turns up with the goat following at his heels, announces he’s named it Eurydice because it followed him out of hell, and declines to explain further. When Combeferre points out it is a boy goat he only gets a withering look in response.

Joly and Bossuet turn up with a goat, Bossuet’s arm in a sling, and about six bags full of potential goat foods Joly wants to try. Both of them look very shifty. They all decide it is probably best not to ask.

Bahorel met this dude with a baller goat, and the dude was totally an asshole, so he punched him out and took the goat. The goat’s name is Rex. Like T. Rex, Enjolras, cool it, I’m not indoctrinating my goat into the monarchy.

Some model for one of Grantaire’s art classes came with a goat because they thought it would make for a good ~pastoral painting~ or something, and then left the goat there, so Grantaire shrugged and brought it with him. It’s named Bottle. Shut up, Courfeyrac, that’s a totally legit goat name.

Marius does not know why this goat is following him will someone please help him and stop giggling and taking pictures :(((((

Reblogging this in hopes that someone will illustrate it.

oh gods yes please
