I am once again thinking about this

Today I present to you this gem from the Belgian les mis account, asking us what our prison number would be, which is. Certainly a move.

Translation : 24601 - Nordin (Javert actor in this production) explains why this is such an important number in Les Misérables. What would be your prison number? 🤔

Note : thanks again to @javertautismtruther for letting me know about this one ! I try to share the posts I can find, but I must admit Instagram posts and posts of non-english speaking les mis account often fly under the radar so if you ever see something like this, a heads-up is always more than welcome !

So this whole year for me has just been autistically swinging between Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Les Misérables as a hyperfixation, so can you just imagine what it was like for me when we got a sewer scene in the new Wonka movie

enjolras is really the character of all time. he's the most attractive man ever. he's a virgin. his girlfriend is france. he's gay. he was born into wealth. his entire purpose in life is to lead a violent rebellion. he has a martyr complex. he loves his friends so much. he leads them to their deaths. he's angelic. he's only human. he's deeply repressed. he's entirely full of love for humanity. he understands violence to be necessary to the cause. he abhors it. he can be quite unthinkingly cruel. he's a charming young man. he's capable of being terrible. he's even blond

In my Javert era

[javertautismtruther]

“He is a man who does good by gunshots.”

The description of Jean Valjean’s marksmanship as “the shot which misses nothing and kills no one” has always stuck out to me as a metaphor for his character as a whole. He’s highly skilled at violence, but chooses to use his skills for pacifism instead. He fires a gun expertly,—but only to hit off soldier’s helmets or knock down furniture for the barricade, and never to kill. It’s similar to how he uses his ‘frightening’ convict strength to save Fauchelevent from under the cart. He’s very “Iron Giant”-like in the sense that he’s been ‘built’ for violence and is in a system that repeatedly tries to force him to be violent, but is determined to remain peaceful at any cost to himself; it’s about all the great “terrifying” power being used only for gentle pacifistic reasons….

when people are like “oh so you’re just gonna judge someone for their political beliefs?” yes actually. I think someone’s values and opinions is a pretty reasonable thing to judge them for.

Shoutout to my colleagues who saw this the day after we took Les Mis out of our theater and were like "yeah we have to give that to Autism Creature™" (it's the original sign from the Les Mis tech booth here) (it's on my bedroom door now)
