I’m not fully in the Les mis fandom so sorry if this is a dumb question but I noticed most people hc grantaire as bisexual. I was just wondering if there’s a reason based on text or if it’s just vibes
Cause obviously he has romantic implications w/ enjolras but does he have any references to liking women too? I haven’t read the brick and I’m truly just curious
so you're not doubting grantaire's sexual attraction to Enjolras, you're just doubting his attraction to women. normally it's the other way round, humanity has truly come so far

Rewatching dr strangelove right now and it reminded me that i was drawing this. I'm posting it because i fear i'm probably never going to finish it 😓😓 full metal drama if it was good or whatever
[ID: 5 separate drawings of total drama characters in place of dr strangelove characters in certain scenes. the first is of beth and lindsay. beth is looking up and lindsay and lindsay is looking forward and has a very sad expression on her face, her hands clasped in front of her chest. she's saying, "He'll see everything. He'll see the big board!" there is a marked-up map behind her. the second drawing is of jo and brick as jack ripper and lionel mandrake. the third drawing is chris mclean as dr strangelove. the fourth is of heather and duncan getting into a fight on the ground. they both look angry. harold is standing in front of them, also looking angry, and saying, "gentlemen, you can't fight in here! this is the war room!" the fifth and biggest drawing is of izzy sitting on the bomb like at the end of the movie. End ID]

Really?
Bakugou should be reevaluating his entire relationship with Izuku since Izuku just directly spelled it out that of course he knew he didn't have anything and that he never looked down on Bakugou. But somehow all Bakugou got out of Izuku's speech was "he thinks he's better than me" still.

Oh God, you guys, I forgot Bridgens had his own journals...!!!
In the book, Bridgens had his own journals, kept throughout the Expedition and possibly beforehand. There's one purposefully left behind in his tent when he goes for his final walk, and five even longer ones purposefully left far behind on Terror!!!
Just consider that for a single goddamn second!
John Bridgens, a man who loves literature and stories, and has defined his entire life by them, specifically destroys his own story, deliberately leaves it all behind to rot, in order to carry Peglar's forward with him instead...!!!

I’m a small blog and idk if I’ll get responses for this, but let’s see.
For context, I read the Brick ten years ago and I still own the physical copy. I usually prefer physical books because it’s easier for me to focus when it’s not on a screen, but I like that LM Letters breaks it down into small manageable chunks that maybe I could focus on.
I’ve also been wanting for a long time to plan my own Les Mis tour and go to Paris, and I need to reread or sift through the Brick anyway to plan that (yes I must plan it by myself for the customized experience, I do not want to use google, I work hard not smart and it’s possible this is a character flaw of mine). Being able to ctrl + F location names on a screen might make it easier for me to do that.
However, if I subscribe to LM Letters and miss a couple days I might just mass delete my emails and not end up rereading some chapters.
Is it worth it??

Have you read The 70 Days After Groundhog Day by Ptelea? Very Good, long, plotty, and Dick-centric. Ptelea has other good ones too.
I have indeed. The story where Dick throws a brick at Jason lmao. Will have to check their profile for other fics. Thanks for the rec!

Dear Chabouillet,
Is it gay to be so obsessed with a man that you recognize him by the strength of his shoulders alone?
Asking for a friend.

How many times do you have to read a book to remember details? Like honestly. I admire you guys so.much. I have read the Silmarillion and the Unfinished Tails once in highschool and I don't remember shit and everwhere I see Silmarillion posting and I feel so sad that I don't remember absolutely anything apart from like the Gondolin storyline and Beren and Luthien and the fall of Numemor but very very vaguely. And I loved that book so much I used to obsessively draw the maps during class for two years straight, and now there is nothing left in my memory anymore. I'm not even talking about asoiaf where I don't remember shit apart from the chapters that I love and even there I forget details. I'm rereading les Mis right now and I it's like I'm reading a new book. How do you guys manage?? Because the books I loved, I want to read them again since I forgot everything about them and then there are so many new books I wanna read it genuinely stresses me out. So much to do, so little time. Is it my ADHD that prevents me from remembering or is this normal? At least I definitely remember how I felt while reading these.

Ultimately it's very funny to me the "character xyz did nothing wrong actually!" fans of every character that gets any degree of hate. OK. Sure. Have you considered though that it's vastly more entertaining and interesting if they *did* do something wrong though?
Said it before I think to sun and sage, and this isn't to pick specifically on Caithe fans, but-- blah blah, never ask a man his salary a woman her age or a Caithe-did-nothing-wrong fan what happened to the centaur settlement in the Silverwastes in 1304 AE! She did help do a massacre there. That's pretty bad overall.
And yet I really like Caithe! I think she's fun and interesting and she's nice to get to know throughout the game. I think these two ideas of "Caithe Did Something Pretty Bad" and "I Like Her" can coexist. Like it's great that she doesn't massacre villages anymore overall but also I think it lends more to her character that she actively participated in this brutal act than if we pretend that she's got mega girl power but only when it's convenient to some morally upstanding end, and otherwise she was just completely at Faolain's dastardly whims. Somehow!
Something about how every character needs to be morally upright and can-do-no-wrong for us to like them, and if they're not they must repent and atone and seek the ultimate forgiveness-- overall it's all very christian in nature and boring and it sucks. You reinvented catholicism is what you did. You made Rytlock confess his sins eat a cracker and atone. You shouldn't do that, he's more interesting without doing that. Personally I think Rytlock should get another divorce and kill another son. And Eir should have also had more secrets she kept, and Caithe should steal a full baker's dozen of dragon eggs from me, and Braham should actually be even worse at handling grief and take it all out on the Commander. These are all what's known as conflict in a story. And they make it sooooo fun. It's almost 2 am, are you rocking with me⁉️

Wild that anytime I post an update a lot of people read it and are even excited about it and have their own thoughts and reactions to it that I'll never know.
Comments are only the very tip of the iceberg with it. And I am Very grateful to commenters for letting me in on it. But in the same way that I'll be excited with my friends when a fic we love updates, it's likely that Other people enthuse with Their friends when my fic updates. And it's just so strange. An experience I'll never have access to.
Everyone's relationship with my fic is unique. So many different people with so many different circumstances and preferences... and the number of people that have told me that my fic is one of their favorites, some even saying it's their Favorite favorite... every single one of them have their own relationship with my writing.
It's just interesting to me. I think and think and think on my writing. I have my plans for basically the entire fic, the way I want it to end already thought out, all the major plot beats and the relationship progressions, All of that thought out. I love my writing so very much, but I'm on the inside looking out. This is my mechanical horse, and I'm in here laying out the groundwork and pulling levers and constructing limbs, puttering away making the horse move. Forever and always, my relationship with it will be more intimate than anyone's, and yet more clinical. Because I know it better than the back of my own hand, but I'll never have the experience of reading it fresh. Of reading it without knowing everything that's going to happen from now to the end and beyond. I won't have the thrill of the plot twists I have planned, the delight at seeing things progress, the horror at seeing things go wrong...
This is my mechanical horse, and I'm making it move.
I just always wonder what it must be like to see it from the outside. I hope to others that it's a pretty horse.
