“ I shouldn’t care about that!” Enjolras moans, and Grantaire can feel his hands curled like claws against his back. 

I wanted to give some time before I posted this, but this moment in @fivie ‘s fic Under My Wings You Will Find Refuge gripped my enire heart until I poured it out in procreate, haha. Rest in pieces, heart. Honestly, this has been my favorite fic for many years, and if you haven’t read it yet, I highly recommend changing that.

top 5 cursed plushie creatures :)

is it not enough that you, me, and my entire family had to see these creechers??? must I inflict them on the innocent masses??? fine but this is your fault.

okay coming in at number 1 is this guy

This guy is upsetting because it is completely unclear what he’s supposed to be. For the record he’s supposed to be plushie ravioli - is that clear to anyone? no. does his tagline ‘a scrummy silly filled with frolics!‘ clarify anything?? it absolutely does not! This is a beige pillow with feet and vacant, staring eyes, I cannot imagine how they’re making profit margins on this or who is buying such cursed products for their children

described by the website as a ‘beautiful baked buddy’. The presence of feet implies that (a) he would run away from any attempts at being eaten (disturbing) and (b) they’d probably be crunchy like burnt toast or insect legs. HATE IT SO MUCH, 0/10 points, his wide spaced eyes will haunt me in my dreams.

There are several sushi roll plushies that are really uncomfortable to look at, but this one wins by virtue of having an inanimate slab of shrimp on it’s head. WHO DECIDES THE RULES OF SENTIENCE IN THIS UNIVERSE??? why does the RICE BALL have a face, but the SHRIMP DOESN’T?? The website informs me that “Silly Sushi Nigiri is super-friendly, and has dressed up to say hello!” and I’ve come here to say goodbye to the ghastly little fish head man.

okay so I found the shrimp on literally the next page. apparently his name is sheldon and he “loves to explore the rockpools and meet new friends on seaside holidays!” sadly I do not think your rockpool chill time is gonna have a happy ending, sheldon. I’m real sorry about that. a sushi roll has plans to wear you like a bonnet.

I saved the worst for last.

THIS horrible little gentleman’s tagline is ‘every day can be Fry-day’, which...I don’t think I need to point out the inherent horror in that. Given that we’ve already established that croissant-man is deeply cursed by his ability to walk, the implication here is of course that when you try and eat the egg it drags itself away with its horrible little arms. We’re all, as a society, worse off because this thing exists. It’s the frankensteins monster of the plush world.

This is an ongoing project — updates will be posted here and on my AO3 account. Thank you to Fivie for continuing to write this absolute masterpiece of a fic, you can send her love through the link to her original fic on AO3 or on her tumblr (fivie.tumblr.com).

So someone pointed out that @fivie’s amazing fic “Under My Wings You Will Find Refuge” basically is made for Grantaire to be this song. And then I sort of got obsessed with how angels are written in Supernatural, and was listening to SO MUCH Magnus Archives and super long story short imagine tortured Angel!Grantaire thinking he can move on from being this eldritch hunter to loving a beautiful, awful human, and ending up realizing how utterly alone in this world he is. This is just a rough start to it, stay tuned for more angst.

(Honestly though, everyone needs to read this fic, it is absolutely the best thing ever and gives me A Lot of Feelings, and I’ve imagined all the ways in which the people in the story can unintentionally isolate everyone around them and yeah, it’s just an absolute trip 10/10).

Traditional art is hell and I have no idea how you artists have patience for backgrounds, but please accept this Enjoltaire fanart from @fivie ‘s incredible fic, Under My Wings You Will Find Refuge

It is my favorite ExR fic of all time and if you enjoy Les Miserables, the SPN universe, or Miltonian themes, I’m certain you will enjoy the story, as well.

14, 19 and 23 for the end of year questions :D

14. Favorite book you read this year?

Uhhh, I loved Utopia for Realists and La Belle Sauvage, and The Shepherd’s Crown made me feel A Whole Lot Of Things.

19. What’re you excited about for next year?

Starting my new job, getting a flat (and getting to like... decorate??), maybe getting a cat??, getting to go to restaurants and bars and shops again, going to MUSEUMS, going to plays and musicals (Les Mis Dec 2021 lmaooo), getting to hug my friends again, getting to see the dutch hopefully, and most importantly getting to sit with you on a FUCKNG COUCH oh my GOD

23. If you could send a message to yourself back on the first day of the year, what would it be?

I would honestly be terrified to tell myself anything in case it, butterfly-effect-style, affected the tangling of our fate strings. But if I could ensure it wouldn’t I’d probably tell myself not to book those non-refundable flights to Hawaii in March 😬

When an author you admire sees your work, it’s totally normal to immediately go and make even more of her Trash Son fan work, right? It’s not weirdly intense at all, surely.

So here’s my take on @fivie’s version of Grantaire, who, for those of you who haven’t yet read Under My Wings You Will Find Refuge, is an angel, is tortured with self esteem issues, and pining after Enjolras. Also he’s amazing and considerate and a hot mess who’s working his way through some Things, so basically the best things since sliced bread. I’m all about hot messes that press onwards anyway.

(Reuploaded because I looked back at this and realized his left eye had no eyelashes. Who am I to deny a beautiful garbage man his eyelashes???)
