Welcome to the Les Amis de l’ABC photobook.
I've been remembering my dreams lately,
and I just woke up from one where the next big Les Mis fandom meme was posting pictures of Marius with irrational numbers while he does canonically stupid shit, followed by his with a rational number doing what would have been a reasonable course of action.
For some reason, the most baffling part of this dream was, "People in the Les Mis fandom can do math???"
Marius?!!
Yes…?
… who else would I be?
Happy Barricade Day!
Just rereading certain passages from the Brick.
Reminding myself of how utterly poignant it is when Cosette is pining for Marius after having shared gazes with him in Luxembourg, and Valjean realizes what’s happening and is terrified of losing her, yet both try their best to hide their pain from each other and neither one blames or tries to change the other.
However, nothing of all this was perceptible to Cosette. No ill-temper, no harshness. His face was always serene and kind. Jean Valjean’s manners were more tender and more paternal than ever.
These two beings who had loved each other so exclusively, and with so touching an affection, and who had lived so long for each other now suffered side by side, each on the other’s account; without acknowledging it to each other, without anger towards each other, and with a smile.
Also reminding myself that after Marius and Éponine’s first meeting, where she teases him with her sexiness, comes onto him as a potential “benefactor” because that’s how low poverty has brought her, he doesn’t react with any enjoyment or attraction in the least. Instead it brings him a rude awakening to his own privilege, making him realize for the first time that his bohemian life isn’t “real misery” and that he’s been ignoring his neighbors’ greater suffering. It’s in his guilt-ridden meditation on poverty at this point that we find the novel’s famous, powerful title drop:
…there is a point where the unfortunate and the infamous unite and are confounded in a single word, a fatal word, les misérables.
These details are so easily forgotten and so nice to remember.
Marius x Courfeyrac for that last meme?
Who is the most affectionate: Courf.
Their most common argument: Probably about Marius’ introvert and asocial tendencies. Courf is pretty patient about that - he gets that Marius is different about socializing than he is - but sometimes he thinks Marius gets a little TOO dramatic about it.
Nicknames for each other: Marius doesn’t really know how to do endearments, but he’ll call Courfeyrac “Court” for short, or use his first name, if it’s a very intimate moment. Court will go for normal endearments or “M. Le Baron” as a teasing nickname but doesn’t have a diminutive for Marius.
Who initiates kisses: Courf.
Who kisses the hardest: Courf usually, but Marius has really intense moments sometimes.
Who said I love you first: Courf.
Who whispers inappropriate things in the other’s ear during inappropriate times: Court.
Who’s the better cook: Courf.
Who wakes up to calm the baby: Marius.
Their favorite non-sexual activity: Courf loooooves to cuddle, it’s just facts.
1 sad headcanon about this couple: What? Marius mourning after the barricades in canon isn’t sad enough? But, ok, let’s make it more sad - At one point it dawns on Marius that the guilty, gnawing feeling isn’t just survivor’s guilt or whatever but the realization that he was so focused on Cosette and his romanticized dreams about her that he completely missed what he already had and failed to properly appreciate it and make sure that Courf knew how he felt until it was too late.
1 sugary-sweet headcanon about this couple: More h/c I guess, but like…Courf isn’t really an herbal tea person usually, but there is this one cinnamon and spice comfort tea that makes him feel better when he’s sick, so Marius makes sure they always have some tucked away somewhere JUST in case.
There’s a post about Les Amis as types of Les Mis fans going around, and I want to add a few:
Marius: The very very specific content provider. Does not seem to engage in fandom except for when their favourite ship/trope/character is mentioned, is not aware of any drama or tries to avoid it, provides consistent content for this very specific thing that probably two friends who pity them are interested in, is not discouraged by it at all but will defend and justify their content till their last breath.
Éponine: pretty aesthetics and pretty moodboards, do their best to have a neat blog, provides rare footage/snippets/audios/gifsets of adaptations that interest them, reblogs all the content from their mutuals, will answer questions about stuff, will defend the musical with all there is.
Cosette: The multitasker. Moodboards? Fics? Art? Cosplay? They do everything, and they do everything well. They take requests and they are up to discuss any headcanon that come up. Makes a lot of stuff based on other people’s posts. Their blog is very nice and has a collection of meta and a “to draw” tag
Gavroche: Marginally interested in Les Mis, usually only likes Les Mis because they are part of a bigger fandom that les mis happened to be relevant in (musical, history, literature), provides barely considered contexts and connections between les mis and other fandoms.
Valjean: has seen all the discourse, has done their fair share of discourse, but now avoids it all, “i don’t ship it but i will defend your right to ship it”, sticks to their favourite version/adaptation but occasionally will also reblog some other adpatation that they are fond of, has their little corner of fandom where there is peace.
Javert: The discoursers. The warriors of fanon. The strict guardians of canon. You either hate or love them, but regardless, they will have an army of anons behind them that will back them up no matter what. they go beyond and above to argue their opinion, and will not budge.
Les Amis as cats showing you affection:
Enjolras - sits close to you but wont be petted, people watching with you
Combeferre - slow blink
Courfeyrac - meowing and pawing at you from very very close
Jehan - drapes their entire mass over you
Bahorel - headbutt
Feuilly - kneading/snurgling your clothes
Joly - climbs your shoulder
Bossuet - falls asleep on you
Grantaire - sits on the stuff you are occupied with
Marius - stares at you from a distance. Intensely.
I mean, this is how Marius shows affection as a person
This is the best addition to this post.
Looking at my old stuff on this blog, i go from bringing some decent content to the table to being extreme cringe jfc fjdjnf
If Marius is Victor Hugo projecting then Marius fucks mad pussy
Y'all sleeping on this
Something’s not right here
Marius is a linguist, right? Do you think he can speak sugondese?
sugondese what?
Not much, what's up with you?
Marius is the kind of guy to make sick jokes when he’s by himself, but when he tries to tell people it falls flat
