Who am I?

Okay no. Eponine is not the devil. If anyone is, it’s Thenardier (the father). That man cheated on his wife, gave up the baby (Gavroche), abused Cosette, sold her, lied to Javert, robbed the Les Amis after they died, tried to profit off of his knowledge of Maurius’s saviour. And then, when Maurius was like “ihy get tf outta France” the dude was like “i mean that’ll take money” so Maurius is like “whatever bro here’s some just f*n leave” and this guy goes and becomes a slave trader. He’s not simply a villain. He’s the freaking devil.

This is a set of what the characters themselves say they are, in the novel.


“God will bless you,’ said he, ‘you are an angel since you take care of the flowers.’
‘No,’ she [Eponine] replied. ‘I am the devil, but that’s all the same to me.”

-Les Miserables, Volume IV, Book II, chapter III
