As we roll into december, i am finally posting our winter prompt list! so, here’s to 12 days of les mis!

please ensure you tag me or use the #seasonalbrick for me to see your work!

WHAT IS THIS? more information below!

basically 12 prompts based around les mis and winter overall to help get the creativeness flowing if you’re struggling with a creative block! I know i struggle with them quite regularly and having prompts helps me build up motivation, especially if i can do it with an interest so i hope it serves to help! i plan to do this with every season, minus autumn where that will be focused on bricktober!

DO NOT FEEL PRESSURED TO DO EVERY PROMPT HERE. these are just some simple ideas that may help people out!

i aimed for these to be as ranging as i could so you can mix prompts together hence the fact nothing is numbered, this is so it’s easier to select which ones you want to do (e.g. fireplace and stories!) so it’s all up to you how you go about this! there is absolutely no rules as to what media you create and i’ll be reblogging as much as i can, whether you do fanart, cosplay, editing, etc!

Happy december and happy holidays to those who celebrate, i hope these can help anyone who needs a lil boost of an idea!

Teachers ranked by how scared the kids are of them in the Les Mis teacher!AU, from least to most:

Marius (substitute teacher)

This man does not muster enough displeasure to scold his students enough to scare them. Once a student argued back and Marius replayed it in his head for two weeks straight.

Bossuet

Ridiculously cheerful all the time; no student has ever angered him because if he does get upset with them, he just looks like this:

Valjean (Principal)

Only managed to get this high bc of his authority status as a principal. Otherwise, the students LOVE him. He's like the grandpa everyone always wanted. And they can detect a distant aura of sadness around him too, so they don't really wanna prode him too much.

Joly

Very cheerful, but when he gets upset he goes "hey guys :-( you are being very rude; please let me finish my slides, alright?" and he sounds SO earnest that his students just quieten down. He gets frustrated on other people's behalf though, so he gets more snappish when students are interrupting a classmate's presentation, for instance.

Grantaire

Students aren't frightened that he scolds them; they're frightened that he's going to lecture them for forty minutes straight and never let them go. There's a folk legend about a student who was half an hour into a scolding when Grantaire paused, forgot where he left off, and started his tirade all over again. No one dares to try and recreate that.

Javert

He's only intimidating because he's the Discipline Master and can therefore easily give them detention/suspension. Otherwise, his lectures are always the same words, in the same inflections, and contains the same ol boring "respect your elders" message. The students have a bingo sheet to secretly tick off the Common Javert Phrases during his scoldings.

Fantine

Has a soft spot for children so she doesn’t get too harsh when she lectures them. Still manages to lock down the Silent Look of Displeasure with the Finger Point though, and has won enough terse arguments with Javert to be placed higher than him.

Combeferre

The master of the "I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed" face. Any student who tries to argue back always gets hit by a devastating retort that has them rethink their life's decisions for a full day. Takes off his glasses and sighs and shakes his head. Says "I expect better from you" and whatnot. Very soul-crushing but ultimately not terrifying.

Éponine (substitute teacher)

Similar to "I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed", but it's more like "I'm not mad, I just find it embarrassing you're doing this right now". Very sarcastic and just laughs when students try and derail her classes. Students are more afraid she'll just snap one day because she doesn't actually scold, she just rants into thin air until her students quieten down and focus again. A real enigma, that one.

Prouvaire

It's because theyre so sweet that makes their angry moments a lot more frightening. Alas, their lectures tend to veer towards weird and unfathomable analogies that confuse the students rather than frighten them, but the tone of their voice still sends shivers.

Bahorel

Students are prematurely frightened of Bahorel because of his height and his loud, booming voice. He doesn't scold as much but when he does, he does use his voice to his advantage. Bahorel also personally brings them to Valjean’s office if they’re being real jerks, and his STOMP STOMP STOMPs down the corridor can send anyone running, teachers included. Otherwise, he’s nice!

Courfeyrac

Similar to Prouvaire, Courfeyrac is this scary because no one really expects him to be able to get /this/ scary. He oscillates rather quickly between the Cool Teacher you can goof around with to being quite impatient and snappish, especially if students cannot tell when it’s time to have fun and when it’s time to get serious. Is the one who argues with Enjolras the most often during English department meetings, which is a scary enough feat by itself.

Feuilly

Quiet and reserved, and doesn’t like it when students goof off in the workshops, so his reputation for being strict is already there. He also argues loudly and publicly with Javert and even other teachers, so students know he’s not one to mess with. Also seeing Mr Enjolras be so subservient to him freaks them out, so his students are a little nervous at first but they eventually end the semester absolutely in love with him <3

Enjolras

Similar to Bahorel, it’s mostly his looks that gets him this reputation 😔. Very Psyche-esque where students and other teachers are afraid to get close to him because he’s too pretty to make eye contact and strike up casual conversations with. Also doesn’t help that he’s rather quiet and only really speaks when he's refuting an argument that he will. not. back. down. from. Has the perfect Look that will freeze hell twice over (à la 3.4.1 where he glares at people who try to flirt with him) and his classes and debate club are run almost Socratic-like where he will push for his students to expand on their answers more and more until he's satisfied with their responses. Ironically, he rarely gives a good, proper scolding and his voice never rises loud enough to be considered a yell; he's captivating no matter what tone of voice he uses. Absolutely nerve-wrecking, bullets-sweating stuff, but at the end of the day, the kids still know he's quite lovely.

Enjolras gets flustered when he learns he's deemed the scariest teacher in school; he isn't trying to be!! But the students are also quick to assure him that he's one of their favourite teachers of all time (though they don't share that it's mostly because it's funny to see his shenanigans with Javert/Grantaire/other Amis)

Is Musichetta floating around in the Teacher au somewhere? :O

I do!!! I've been trying to find the spoons to draw her, but I still can't muster much 🥺 so heres a little group doodle I had of all the ladies!

Musichetta is the outsourced dance club instructor, so not an actual teacher in the school! The dance team trains in the studio right opposite the classroom where Joly and Bossuet's St. John Ambulance club practices in, so the Bini keeps accidentally-on-purpose bumping into her in the hallway like "omg hiiiii Miss Musichetta!!!!! oh wow are those the new costumes for the team? let us help you carry it in!!!" and Musichetta finds it hilarious.

And ofc, Éponine is also in the AU! There's an actual proper backstory about her and Gavroche coming to the school that involves a lot of Bahorel and jail-time shenanigans that ik Emile you have already heard; hopefully I'll be able to post it on Tumblr one day 😭 She's a TA/substitute teacher/teacher assistant/odd jobs extraordinaire at the school. They have a lack of maths teachers so she subs maths alot, to the point where she's a regular at the Maths department meetings and Javert unwittingly gets closer to her. She takes advantage of this to get Gavroche out of classes sometimes.

Hopefully more actual world-building info for Teacher AU shall be shared!! 😭 once my sad little brain decides to cooperate :p

[combeferres-mothematics]

Marius and Javert are friends now apparently (They decided to have a dance-off, then went stargazing???)
