Enjolras in the 25th anniversary concert: All of you are fives except for Grantaire who is an eight and I support him Enjolras in the 2019 all-star cast: All of you are fives and that's okay. Not now Grantaire. Enjolras in the 10th anniversary concert: All of you are fives. Who the fuck is Grantaire? Enjolras in the book: all of you are threes, except for Grantaire who is a zero and deserves to die in a house fire. Enjolras in the 2012 movie: all of you are zeros who deserve to be killed by a weedwacker.

The image above is from the original draft manuscript of Les Misérables— I am obsessed with the fact that the Némorin sequence is included in the very first writings of the novel. Hugo had ALWAYS planned for these two to go and spend the night in each-other’s company instead of help with the Gorbeau ambush and I love that for them.

Give this wolf puppy a human face

And you would have,

Javert."

“It is a terrible thing to be happy! How content one is! How all-sufficient one finds it! How, being in possession of the false object of life, happiness, one forgets the true object, duty!”

Enjolras: You are incapable of conventional though, so drawn up in your own idiocrasy that you fail to realize the imbecile nature of every word that pours out of your mouth Grantaire: love you too
