apparently oscar wilde and victor hugo once met for a morning of literary debate in paris and people still think that enjolras being compared to antinous was a coincidence
Re draw! I did this comic for the first time at 2018… and i really wanted to do it again since i wanted to see how much my style changed XD
Trans FtM Enjolras who never transitioned (let’s be realistic he’s a broke college student he doesn’t have the money) and discovers he’s pregnant. When he tells Grantaire, Grantaire doesn’t speak a word for almost twenty minutes. Then he cries. A lot. When they tell the rest of Les Amis, there’s chaos. Courfeyrac and Combeferre are fighting upon who gets to be the godfather, Eponine and Cosette are so excited about teaching the baby to write and read and shoot a gun (“oh my GOD, EPONINE!”), the others just ask Joly informations about going through labour and Joly starts to describe the pain so vividly until he see that Enjolras is getting nauseous and eventually shuts up. Enjolras is totally comfortable about having a baby especially because he knows Grantaire has always wanted to be dad, but eventually he notices that Grantaire has started drinking again and when he asks him why Grantaire just cries that he will never be a good father and some other kind of bullshit. And Enjolras tells him he will be the greatest of dads and that he isn’t like his father because he knows what being kicked out of his own house feels like and the night ends up in cuddles and tiny kisses. And the baby risks to be named “Paris” but Grantaire warns Enjolras he will burn all his books about the French Revolution if he does. So the baby’s name ends up to be “Eleytheria” that means “freedoom” in Greek and it’s a weird ass name but it’s: a) genderless b) oh well weird ass names are one of the reasons Les Amis get along so well anyway.

Living together snippets:
That time Grantaire's brush got stuck and then broke into Enjolras's hair. Enjolras's curls got twisted so bad around it it took them hours to detangle.
"I'm afraid we'll have to cut them Jo"
"Grantaire, I swear, cut my hair and I'll cut your dick".
serotonin
Enjolras: "is visibly sad*
Combeferre: what's wrong?
Enjolras: Grantaire said, "Hey Enjolras," to me, at the start of the meeting.
Combeferre: . . .

Amora and Loki in the comic issue where they become good and all heroes become villains. However, Loki finds the idea of Amora being evil again more alluring.
Most people in this fandom know exactly three lines from Euripides (Anne Carson trans.):
Pylades: I'll take care of you.
Orestes: It's rotten work.
Pylades: Not to me. Not if it's you.
Now, this is all well and good for understanding Vicky's parallelism with Orestes & Pylades, Achilles & Patroclus, and Enjolras & Grantaire and explains the dynamic well enough,
if we evaluate it in context, we find the good kush.
Background: A council is deciding if Orestes will be stoned to death, and things aren't looking good for him. He and Pylades have just decided to run away together.
Orestes: Beware the contagion of madness.
Enjolras: If you join me, you will die.
Pylades: Come on.
Grantaire: Vive la Republique, I am one of them.
Orestes: You won't shrink back?
Enjolras:
Pylades: A friend does not shrink back.
Grantaire:
Orestes: Then let's go.
Pylades: Let's go.
Enjolras & Grantaire:
The other night dear, as I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms But when I awoke, dear, I was mistaken So I hung my head and I cried
I was listening to that song and my hand slipped 😂
this is the funniest thing i have ever done
