In 1832 republican revolutionnaries wore the beard for group recognition but Enjolras probably wouldn’t have been able to grow one. R therefore had beard enough for two.

Okay but wow I like your R design a LOT. Particularly the way he seems oddly lankier than Enjolras.  There’s a really nice contrast with his trousers and the more casual ways he holds his hat and bottle versus Enjolras and his almost clutching the text to himself.  Really awesome!
