ER
Oh wow, I love the colors on this! And the way everything interlocks and overlaps?? (and is Grantaire’s stubble actually writing? I can’t quite tell!) What a cool take on the characters!

i’ve said this before but….more stories where being gay is what saves and heals a character. more stories where a girl meets a nice girl and develops feelings for her and these feelings are the source of her happiness, her freedom, her escape, rather than her suffering. more stories where a guy’s boyfriend is the reason he is able to leave an abusive home and why he doesn’t self-harm anymore.
gayness not as a curse, but as a blessing. gay characters’ partners as heroes. a character’s gayness as perhaps the one and only thing that even ties them to reality. more stories like this. please.
I watched Les Mis in the Queen’s Theatre and I’m still crying.
When they sang “here’s to pretty girls who went to our heads”, Grantaire snorted and looked at Enjolras.
Enjolras touches Grantaire more than any other character (mostly trying to derail him, but still).
This Grantaire stood his ground repeatedly, it was lovely. Like, dirty looks when Enjolras is winding up Gavroche. Not letting him get to Marius when he needed a moment. Constantly trying to lighten the mood. Arguing with Bahorel to the point Enjolras has to mediate (which mostly consists on the derailing mentioned above but I’m not complaining).
Before Enjolras climbed the barricade for the last time, they held hands and as they were letting go, Grantaire kissed Enjolras wrist, desperately.
They don’t hold hands as they die though. Grantaire sees Enjolras fall. I can’t get over that. Not getting over that. Ever.
- Sois sérieux, dit Enjolras
- Je suis farouche, répondit Grantaire."Be serious," said Enjolras.
"I am wild," responded Grantaire.From Victor Hugo’s original handwritten draft of Les Misérables. [x]
