Les Amis of Paris

This is the story of Les Amis de l'ABC, a small group of revolutionaries fighting for justice in a France ruled by a corrupt king.

Mod, where are you?? ❤️❤️❤️

Hey there! So textingcombeferre is on hold for a bit while the two mods completely figure out the plot of the story and then create all the content for it before posting.  We’ve found that it’s going to be easier on us if we make this blog like a weekly or a biweekly updated blog where all we have to do is post the texts and fics without having to create them all after we both get home from work and school.  You will all still get to interact with the characters, of course, and there will still be room to influence the story! 

Thanks for sticking with us! Texting Combeferre and Les Amis of Paris will be back!

I don't think you have to feel sorry for him, but if you'd been raised into that and just found out a out it, would you be able to snap into action right away? Not that you should trust him blindly, but maybe you should look at what he does from here on out, even if you disagree with what he did immediately.

I think this is a very good way to look at it. People take time to change, especially if they’ve believed something their whole life. And without Combeferre, we might never have freed Enjolras. You see that, right Courf? –Feuilly

Aaand he just walked out of the room. Sorry about how stubborn he’s being…when Courfeyrac gets worked up about something, it’s really hard for him to calm down enough to try to see it another way.  –Bossuet

Courf, I think the fact that you care so much about Enjolras is very admirable, but what I think the other people that are commenting are trying to say is that Combeferre didn't have any knowledge of what the government was doing. Also, what do you mean he chose to do nothing? I'm not sure if your definition of nothing involves breaking the law to save someone he has never really met before, but I don't think most people's do.

He has the knowledge NOW. Yeah, he helped Enjolras get out, but what? You save a kid from unlawful imprisonment and then go back to living your life?? “Oh hey it turns out the government’s corrupt but no biggie! I’m in the perfect position to actually do something about it but NAH” –Courfeyrac

[lesamisofparis]

You know, I understand how you feel, but have you considered what Combeferre may be going trough? He didn't even konow that the government could do something like that AND that his father was aware of that and did nothing. For you it's just a guard, but for him is someone he loves, and it's must be difficult to assimilate all that happened.

I’m supposed to feel sorry for someone because their dad helped torture my friend??? –Courfeyrac

….I think what they’re saying is, we should try to empathize with—oh jeez Courf don’t glare at me like that! –Bossuet

[lesamisofparis]

Courfeyrac wait!! Maybe Combeferre is telling the truth!! Do you really think someone put his ass on the line to keep Enjolras safe for months on end would really have tried to hurt him?! Maybe what's happening with Enjolras isn't caused by Combeferre, but by the torture or by being completely incapacitated and isolated for so long??

Listen, I know what Enjolras went through was horrendous. I don’t…I can’t even think about it. And it pisses me the hell off that our own fucking government did that to him and think they’re getting away with it.

Combeferre saw what they did to Enjolras and apparently sees no problem with it. He has direct access to the captain of the guard, to the king, and he chooses to do nothing. Now after spending months with him, Enjolras has lost all his interest in the cause. That’s no coincidence. –Courfeyrac

Yoooo I cannot wait until we get context for everything, the suspense is killing me (A+ job mod, glad you're back 😊👌👍💯)

Aw thank you! I’m glad you’re enjoying it! I’m very excited to be getting back to this story. We have many, many things planned :D –Mike

Grantaire, do you play guitar? Do amy of the other Amis play instruments -M

Hah no, I only play the claves. And I play them damn well. Bossuet plays drums, Cosette has mad skills on the piano, and I’ve been told Enjolras plays the violin, but I’ve never heard him. --Grantaire

What are your opinions on puns?

You could say I have a propunsity for them :D :D :D –Bossuet

Oh yeah? Well I’ve got an apundance of puns up my sleeve. –Courfeyrac

You just wait, I’m…punstoppable! –Bossuet

Ooh, you hesitated on that one. Of course, I’m always punctual when it comes to wordplay. –Courfeyrac

This will go on all day. –Cosette

So, Bosuet. how do you lose your shoe in a puddle?

I honestly DON’T KNOW. One second I’m stepping in a puddle, the next second my sneaker is gone. I went back and checked for it but the puddle wasn’t even that deep! Where did it go??? –Bossuet

Maybe you discovered a worm hole! *spooky wavy hands* –Courfeyrac

I hope the aliens are happy…I liked that shoe :( –Bossuet
