Just think, Enjolras probably had no idea that Grantaire actually loved him-
I mean, he knew there was something there I imagine, he knew Grantaire sought to be an accepted Pylades. But I don’t think he knew the depths of it and that it was actually love rather than lust, I don’t think he guessed that til right at the end. Most people probably wouldn’t: it would be like, I dunno, knowing some guy who’s the loud clownish kid at the back of the class, who’s always making what he thinks are subtle passes at you but badly flirting with everyone else as well, who always drinks too much at parties and you wish he’d sort himself out-
-and then he, well, gets up after a battle and offers to die with you. It would really mess with your head…
