SOME ILLUSTRATIONS FROM A LES MIS BRICK THAT I FOUND ON A SECOND HAND BOOKSTORE (printed in the early 1900)

MONTPARNASSE AND AN UNKNOWN MAN (also known as Jean Valjean)

GAVROCHE AND HIS ADOPTIVE KIDDOS

AND FINALLY, BUT ABSOLUTELY NOT LESS IMPORTANT...

THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE LEGEND.... ENJOLRAAAAAS

I JUST FINISHED LES MIS AND IM ACTUALLY SOBBING THEY DIED HOLDING HANDS???

[syrupsyche]

Combeferre had cursed, standing to grab a bedsheet to gather the glass shards, when Enjolras’ eerie stillness stopped him in his tracks.

“Sébastien?” He murmured. “Sébastien, are you hurt?”

Enjolras, still sitting amongst the sharp and sticky mess, lifted his head and stared at Combeferre, his blue eyes wet and rimmed red.

“I…I—” Enjolras choked, his face crumpling. “I’m sorry!”

And he burst into tears.

Or; Enjolras has never drank, not since his disastrous first drink with Combeferre as children. That is, until years later, where Combeferre finds him stumbling back drunk, brimming with emotions left unsaid.

So this is it, that's how it ends I guess there's nothing more romantic than dying with your friends

my sis was so excited when I told her that I finally also got obsessed with Les Mis.

"Who's your favorite character?" she asked.

"Welll I love Enjolras and Grantaire but my real fave..."

"Enjolras? Is that the hot one?"

"...Yes?"

"And who is Grantaire???"

"The one who makes fun of Marius when he's rambling about love?"

Sister: ????

Me: Well, anyway, my real love is Combeferre. But I'm also really getting to adore Courfeyrac...

Sis: THOSE ARE MADE UP NAMES.

I have made this post before but to reiterate once again: you can tell how the stress and stakes of the rebellion has put much strain on the already-shaky relationship between Enjolras and Grantaire. Compare the (only!) two times they have shared a proper conversation:

“Grantaire will you do me a service?”

“Anything. I’ll black your boots.”

“Well, don’t meddle with our affairs. Sleep yourself sober from your absinthe.”

“You are an ingrate, Enjolras.”

— LM 4.1.6

“Go and sleep somewhere else,” cried Enjolras.

But Grantaire, still keeping his tender and troubled eyes fixed on him, replied:—

“Let me sleep here,—until I die.”

Enjolras regarded him with disdainful eyes:—

“Grantaire, you are incapable of believing, of thinking, of willing, of living, and of dying.”

Grantaire replied in a grave tone:—

“You will see.”

— LM 4.12.3

Both instances has Enjolras commanding Grantaire to sleep his alcohol off somewhere else, with Grantaire refusing. But the language used is different: the argument is lighter, even teasing in 1.6, while the exchange in 12.3 is harsh, with both sides equally cruel (Grantaire to the women, and Enjolras to Grantaire). A brilliant parallel used by Hugo to show the heightened emotions of the rebellion and, of course, the fated relationship between exR. They are always going to be playing the same game, speaking the same lines— and dying the same death.

no listen if you want to do a royalty au it has to be enjolras as the scrappy commoner who is plotting to overthrow the monarchy and grantaire as the sheltered and nihilistic crown prince who drinks too much and doesn't think about the oppression of the people under his family.

and then he meets enjolras and something changes and soon enough he comes to power and immediately abolishes the throne and the nobility and looks like we won't need that revolution after all.
