Hi! I hope it's not a stupid question, but I've been wondering how come so much Enjorlas fics depict him as trans? Tbh I've only ever seen the musical so are there some references/clues in the book that make it canon or semi-canon? I'm really enjoying lots of the fics you recced so far and would love for it to be canon but if not, then Hugo missed a great opportunity and knows nothing ;) Have a nice day and all the best x
hi! not a stupid question at all!Â
There are multiple moments in the book that can very very easily be read as trans enjolras. like people can argue for days against this argument but the fact is. It can be read that way. VERY EASILY. Heâs often described to have very feminine features (literally describes him to look like a 17yr old girl) and the fact he cannot grow a beard. I could probably go very in depth but that might take me 100 years. I love it.Â
So in short yes theres absolutely source material to support trans enjolras and so our little trans hands are going to hold onto that with loving care! now go forth and conquer!Â
