courfgayrac:

so i’ve noticed that victor hugo seems to be all about certain people being the instruments of other people’s completion and/or salvation

first of all we have valjean’s inital “awakening” via the bishop, which is certainly a kind of spiritual salvation

and then cosette, being a being of love, innocence, and light, rectifies valjean’s character by basically giving him the capacity to love and be loved

hugo outright says that combeferre “corrected and rectified” enjolras by embodying humanity and gradual progress to couple with enjolras’ lofty ideals, grounding them, making them more stable

and of course enjolras causes grantaire “to be someone once more” and completes him

now im emotional dont look at me
