When I was more active on this blog I used to get people bombarding me with deranged homophobic messages because I call Frodo and Sam gay, and I’ve realized they were upset because I am objectively correct. “Frodo and Sam are canon gay”— tolkien in the secret copy of the book only true fans have read (if you haven’t read this copy it’s because you’re not a true fan)

[chronotopes]

it’s so so funny silly. “grantaire is a working class person who inspires enjolras through new perspectives” so close, that is feuilly. “grantaire is enjolras’s intellectual equal who has complicated and conviction-informed feelings about revolutionary violence and his articulations of these feelings round out and supplement enjolras’s perspective” so close, that is combeferre. “If grantaire had joined in the fighting he would have been super awesome at it and earned enjolras’s respect and admiration” so close‼️‼️ that is MARIUS!!

OKAY WAS NO ONE GOING TO TELL ME THERE IS A DISNEY LES MISERABLES COMIC?!

HELP I AM CONVULSING

[talkingadult]

Jean Valjean Les Miserables is just like me because when I am faced with two tasks that I could probably complete in a 24 hour timeframe I also crash out

Maybe im too woke but i im lowkey tired of seeing grantaire, the guy described as extraordinarily "ugly", offten drawn as a poc/with darker skin , in contrast to Enjolras, the guy described as beautiful, who drawn as a white person/with pale skin. It always feel so icky to me as a black person lol, especially with how commen it is.

i think there is always going to be some weird problems when people try to draw a "ugly" and "pretty" character, because beauty standards are so very rooted in racism and colorism, and are also different everywhere, but to have a character who is canonically ugly and white be drawn so offten as a person of color with brown/dark skin, somthing that has historically been deamed as ugly, is very bizarre.

I dont think people do it intentionally, and im not going force you to change the way you draw characaters, draw Grantaire as a poc and Enjolras as white if you want! Who am i to stop you! But like, maybe think about the iffy implications when doing that while drawing him next to a pale ass enjolras LOL

Anyways sincerely- a black les mis fan who is TIRED of seeing black people and other people of color deemed as ugly 😭
