Portrait of Victor Hugo, published in L’Artiste in 1832, by Alphonse-Léon Noël.

Look at that date! And the best part? Noël was a student of Antoine-Jean Gros, the same Gros (I presume) that Grantaire studied under. Moreover, he was born in 1807, that is, a contemporary of Grantaire. I don’t want to think that this is a coincidence!

You find the best things

Can you put this in one of your drabbles somehow, like Noël tries to persuade Grantaire to accept the commission instead but Grantaire won’t or—something?

Because you find the best things and we mustn’t let this be a coincidence!

Also - doesn’t he look like Eddie Redmayne’s Marius? A little bit? Enough to cement my impression that Hugo = Marius (only more political and cleverer).

[edwarddespard]

Hah! Yes, he has the popular Brutus hairstyle going on a bit - hair brushed foward, maximum volume on top.

Great pic!

Oh god, so the rooster look was an authentic 1832 Parisian hairstyle?

That makes me giggle!  

I like the headcanon with Grantaire!

Eagle, I see the name Alphonse there, and you know what I think of? ;D

The sword is not a tool for killing.  A sword is a tool to save people with.

I have been well! I've also scaled back my involvement in fandom matters since returning to school and starting other activities, but the interpersonal atmosphere here has been rather civil and calm, even in debate (well, at least on my dash). So, hopefully your fresh start will make way for a better experience this time around!

Oh, that's good news! People have learned to disagree civilly? Didn't think that'd be possible with the maturity level on this site. Good to know! This gives me hope that I won't have to deal with the flamewars, but I think this time, if flamewars happen, I'm going to stay the hell away from them. In the words of Roger Murtaugh, I'm too old for that shit. ;) In any case, I'm still minimizing my fandom involvement. I like lit crit and fanfic, so I think I'm just going to keep it at purely that.

School and other RL stuff does cut into fandom time, but it's not a bad thing at all. RL > fandom always, after all! Hope it's going well for you. <3

[blackholeinfinity]

You're back! :)

I am! And I definitely recognize your username, just wasn't sure if you'd remember me. ^_^ How have you been?

Thanks! I hope so, too. ^_^

Forgive me, but maybe it’s because your username changed, but I don’t remember who you are. :( I’m so, so sorry. Give me a reminder?

OH MY GOD

I swear I’m smart, you guys. I have a degree in rocket science, for crying out loud.

But how do I enable Anon on my Ask again?

[dtn]

Under settings XD Go to your blog title and it’s under Ask~

[blackholeinfinity]

OMG thank you. <3

[dtn]

Sure thing! It’s good to see you post again :DDD

[blackholeinfinity]

<333!

I’m still adjusting to the idea that I was missed over here. ^_^ You still doing Reborn stuff? I haven’t touched anything re: KHR in ages. 

[dtn]

I’m still getting used to tumblr really. XD Since Reborn ended I’m a little off on it but I still like to look up stuff from time to time. Got my eye on a Knuckle/Alaude doujinshi……… /shifty eyes

[blackholeinfinity]

It's over now? Well, catching up should be easy for me, then, though finding merchandise when I'm in Japan the next three weeks will be hard. Oh well.

Eee! Knuckle/Alaude! I'll admit to having been burned on that pair because of an RP I was in, but now that I've gotten distance, I think I'm okay with shipping it again. To be honest, being in the Les Mis fandom has helped me love it again, even if I so don't ship the characters that Knuckle and Alaude remind me of. XD

[blackholeinfinity]

Also, if I unfollow you, don’t take it personally. I really don’t remember who anybody is. Send me an ask to remind me and if you’d like me to keep following you. Just going to do a massive sweep here. It’s nothing against anyone! Clean slate, remember?

[EDIT: 2 people so far have liked my last…

[ancslove]

Hey, why can’t I reply to your posts?

*waves*

[blackholeinfinity]

I don't know. I forgot how Tumblr works. O_o

BUT HI!

I didn't unfollow you, did I? Because I obviously remember you! <3

[EDIT: 2 people so far have liked my last post. People really do remember me? But I'm a nobody. :p Thanks guys, and I've refollowed you!]

[EDIT 2: No idea what I'll be using my Tumblr for yet. I have a private blog for personal and fandom things and a public blog for photography and travel stuff, so, hrm. Maybe just fanfics here. That means changing my username would be completely moot. OH WELL. Not changing my author name and risk getting accused for plagiarizing my own stuff. ^^;]
