enjolras has to wear reading glasses

[roach-kinnie]

canon barricade boys as they’re introduced

honestly reading this part of the brick is basically reading a list of headcannons off tumblr but i digress

Enjolras

…a charming young man who was capable of being a terror.

- essentially both a nerd and a jock

- very very pretty

- cares about justice, not women

- his speech can be harsh and intense

Combeferre

He was learned and a purist, precise, eclectic, hard-thinking, and at the same time imaginative ‘to the point of fantasy’, his friends said.

- very close with Enjolras, and really balances his out

- believes that education is really important in society

- gentle, and while he could fight would rather not

Jehan

Jean Prouvaire was a lover; he cherished a pot of flowers, played the flute, wrote verses, loved the people…

- learned Italian, Latin, Greek, and Hebrew to be able to read poetry

- likes to walk through meadows of wild flowers

- he likes to contemplate social issues and the immensity of the heavens

- kind in a way that kindness is like greatness

- an only child

- awkward and shy and fearless

Feuilly

There is no more powerful eloquence than that of indignation based on true conviction, and his was the power that he possessed.

- makes fans

- an orphan - he likes to say that his country took the place of his mother

- he taught himself how to read and write

- affectionate and warm hearted

- is really passionate about issues beyond France (greece, poland, hungary, etc)

Courfeyrac

He possessed that youthful ardour that may be termed the infernal beauty of the spirit.

- ditched the de part of de Courfeyrac because it was too bougie and he wanted to be like lafayette

- he’s essentially the heart of the revolution

- he’s “decent” (victor hugo did him dirty here)

Bahorel

He was a born agitator: that is to say, he enjoyed nothing more than a quarel except a rebellion, and nothing more than a rebellion except a revolution.

- wears crimson waistcoats

- connected the ABC to other groups

- his motto is “no lawyers”, he would literally button up his coat every time he walked by the law school to avoid ‘contamination’

- he has no regular habits but likes to stroll through paris and go to different cafes

Bossuet

Bossuet was a cheerful but unlucky young man, notable for the fact that he succeeded in nothing. On the other hand, he laughed at everything.

- so very bald

- he’s poor, as in basically always broke but still finds a way to squander money when he can

- merry and cheerful and good humoured

- studying law

- couch surfs, but mostly lives with Joly

- bald

Joly

For the rest, he was the gayest of them all.

- med student

- disabled and uses a cane

- jolly and eccentric

Grantaire

Grantaire was a young man who made a point of believing in nothing.

- goes by R because of grand R (aka capital R because he’s such a nerd)

- knows where all the best alcohol is

- so fucking ugly

- a boxer, gymnast and dancer

- completely and utterly in love with Enjolras

[andmines-cosette]

here's another enjolras, courf, and ferre headcannon:

Combeferre is the one who gets up at six everyday to read, and is dressed and has a full start to his day before the other two even gain consciousness. Courfeyrac is even more sarcastic than usual in the mornings, and sometimes can be very touchy feely and "'Ferre but I just want to sit on the couch come onnn." Enjolras is unapproachable before cup of coffee number two, and on days he doesn't need to go anywhere he will wear his pajamas or sweatpants and a hoodie all day. Much to Courfeyrac's amusement

[andmines-cosette]

one of my favorite mental images is enjolras sitting on his, ferre, and courf's couch wearing a red turtleneck and really comfy looking headphones and staring grumpily at his laptop.

[merrymerrynicolo]

les mis headcannon that all of the barricade boys used to smoke at one point (because obviously) but they quit a while ago-- except no one told joly and whenever they want to mess with him they’ll all take a “smoke break” and when they come back inside the musain joly will have prepared a presentation on the dangers of smoking, complete with pamphlets and a powerpoint.

Modern ghost hunter amis headcannons

Enjolras has a clipboard

Bahorel drives the van, and him and Grantaire drew the ghost busters logo on the side but he painted it with luscious blond locks, similer to that of Enjolras’s.

Courfeyrac is in charge of snacks and he puts everyone’s food in little baggies and draws little emoji ghosts on them.

Combeferre is the EVP geek, and he sets it up and spends hours going through it after each investigation in his PJ’s with a cut of tea

Bossuet once sneezed during a Ouija board session and Bahorel panicked and punched him in the face.

Joly once though a malevolent spirit had followed him home until he realized it was Chetta leaving vague notes on the mirror in lipstick, not a ghost.

Cosette takes the photographs, and she takes extreme pleasure in introducing herself as “the cameraman” when haughty middle aged men thinks she’s only an assistant.

Feuilly researches the ghost of each place they visit, and he makes them a personalized fan as a peace offering based on the information he could find on them.

Jehan helps Feuilly by putting a bouquet of flowers for the ones who have graves.

Eponine will go anywhere, and is always sent to the scariest parts of buildings becasue she is sometimes the only one who can stomach it. Until one day when they investigate an old inn in Montfermeil and she refuses to go in and breaks down into uncontrollable sobs, and no one can work out why.

Headcannon that Eponine can out drink all of the amis, even R All of them have tried to keep up with her and have failed Most of them have up after a few drinks when they realised it was hopeless, Joly came pretty close and Courfyerac kept insisting he was barely tipsy until he had to be carried home and didn't wake up until 4pm the next day Combeferre banned him from drinking for a month afterwards
