#enjolras forever

At the 85th Academy Awards, the cast of Les Miserables took the stage to perform a rousing rendition of One Day More from the 2012 film. Eddie Redmayne, starring as Marius, was among the ensemble that sang the live number at the awards ceremony and the actor recently reflected on his nerves right before he went onstage for the performance. "I was getting pretty nervous and I could see Amanda [Seyfried] standing in front of me and we were about to sing our little duet," Redmayne recalled during an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show. Right before the actor went on, he heard the stage manager tell him that a billion people were watching the show. "I sort of survived," he said of his performance, adding that he was impressed by his co-stars Aaron Tveit and Samantha Barks. "I remember after my bit, Aaron came on and just flipping owned it! I was like 'That is how you do live performance!'" x

the thing is it's such a shame marius never went back after the whole defending-napoleon-fiasco bc I genuinely think enjolras likes him. and that he genuinely thinks he has potential in an 'he's a little confused but he's got the spirit', 'i could work with this' sort of way. like yeah he's a very serious sort of guy w strongly held beliefs but his behavior (to me at least) really reads like was interested to have him around & develop his politics. like in the post-napoleon-speech scene when combeferre has had his really good line & the rest of them have all walked out of the room & he stays behind:

and:

the 'gazing gravely at him', the staying behind, the hand on his shoulder, they don't read to me like he has any dislike towards marius even if he obviously doesn't agree w what he's said, he seems like he understands marius' confusion. he's not giving any ground politically but he's interested in marius. a sort of 'missed the mark this time but let's try again' thing. and then way later (chronologically) he's still obviously thinking of marius in this bit & seems to genuinely think he'd do a good job & regrets that he never came back:

unfortunately I don't think marius picks up on any of that though

a footnote will do

“Citizens,” said Enjolras, “what that man did is frightful, what I have done is horrible. He killed, therefore I killed him. I had to do it, because insurrection must have its discipline. Assassination is even more of a crime here than elsewhere; we are under the eyes of the Revolution, we are the priests of the Republic, we are the victims of duty, and must not be possible to slander our combat. I have, therefore, tried that man, and condemned him to death. As for myself, constrained as I am to do what I have done, and yet abhorring it, I have judged myself also, and you shall soon see to what I have condemned myself.” Those who listened to him shuddered.

“We will share thy fate,” cried Combeferre.

“So be it,” replied Enjolras. “One word more. In executing this man, I have obeyed necessity; but necessity is a monster of the old world, necessity’s name is Fatality. Now, the law of progress is, that monsters shall disappear before the angels, and that Fatality shall vanish before Fraternity. It is a bad moment to pronounce the word love. No matter, I do pronounce it. And I glorify it. Love, the future is thine. Death, I make use of thee, but I hate thee. Citizens, in the future there will be neither darkness nor thunderbolts; neither ferocious ignorance, nor bloody retaliation. As there will be no more Satan, there will be no more Michael. In the future no one will kill any one else, the earth will beam with radiance, the human race will love. The day will come, citizens, when all will be concord, harmony, light, joy and life; it will come, and it is in order that it may come that we are about to die.”

Enjolras ceased. His virgin lips closed; and he remained for some time standing on the spot where he had shed blood, in marble immobility. His staring eye caused those about him to speak in low tones.

Jean Prouvaire and Combeferre pressed each other’s hands silently, and, leaning against each other in an angle of the barricade, they watched with an admiration in which there was some compassion, that grave young man, executioner and priest, composed of light, like crystal, and also of rock.

im currently thinking about how forcfully my schools production of les mis's Grantaire threw all his body weight onto its Enjolras when they all died and how much VISIBLE pain and discomfort and rage was conveyed on that supposed to be dead face.

[ID: Three digital drawings of Enjolras and Grantaire from “Les Misérables.” One is a sketch of Grantaire leaning on Enjolras’s shoulder with his head in his hand, while Enjolras stands staring forward with blood on his cheek. Another is a sketch of Grantaire sitting with his head down, next to some wine bottles. The last is a drawing of Grantaire kissing Enjolras’s hand while Enjolras looks at the viewer with a neutral expression. End ID.]

It was an accident. Grantaire had been out with some friends and it was so easy to just. Fall back into old habits. One minute he was talking to Bossuet and Joly, the next he was puking his guts out in the bathroom.

He ended up getting home a lot later than he said would. He knew Enjolras was going to be mad. But he just couldn't bring himself to care.

When he walked inside he tried his best not wake Enjolras. Upon entering the living room, however, he realized it was in vain.

Enjolras was sitting on the couch staring at him. Grantaire could tell he was upset.

"'Sup," He said weakly.

"Really? That's all you have to say? 'Sup'?" Enjolras responded angrily. "I was worried about you. You said you'd be home hours ago. You haven't answered a single one of my calls or- Are you drunk?" He asked incredulously upon seeing Grantaire swaying where he stood.

"Maybe," he giggled.

"Grantaire, you told me you would stop drinking,"

"Ok? It was just tonight! I was having fun!"

Enjolras sighed, grabbing Grantaire and starting to pull him towards their bedroom.

"Oooh~ you're what are you going to do me?"

Enjolras responded exasperatedly, "You are going to bed."

"Aww but I just got home! We could do some other things in bed instead," Grantaire pouted as he let Enjolras pull him into the bedroom.

"No. You are going to bed, and we are going to have a talk in the morning."

"Ugh ok,"

Enjolras helped Grantaire put some pajamas and gently led him to the bed. As he turned to leave, he felt his arm being grabbed.

"Where are you going?" Grantaire asked, confused.

"I'm sleeping on the couch."

"Oh,"

Neither said anything else as Enjolras left the bedroom

"I wish I knew how to quit you."

"Well, why don't you?"

Guess who rewatched Brokeback mountain.. ignore how i changed Jacks pose from the poster I couldn't do it LMAO

I might finish it, might not, idk yet

[seesboy]

when i first got into les mis i was under the impression that enj and marius were best friends (blame my music teacher misremembering lol) and even though that might've been wrong i still think there's a lot of underutilized comedic value in their dynamic

[knightoflove]

You simply Can Not tell me about headcanoning a character as asexual/aroace/aromantic because it fundamentally changes my view on that character.

It welds me to that character forever. I don’t get a choice in whether or not I like them because I HAVE TO NOW!!!

[feverofthyself]

self-proclaimed les mis musical haters when who cares about your lonely soul we strive toward a larger goal our little lives don't count at all
