< *general, "everything-is-on-fire"-encompassing handwave*

but I also got very distinct echoes of #DawnOfAnguish from #LesMis:

'the people have not stirred
we are abandoned by those who still live in fear
the people have not heard
yet we will not abandon those who cannot hear'

which just goes >

Handsup who spends a night partaking of the amber liquid and navigating various eclectic YouTube videos and ALWAYS ends on #LesMis youtu.be/ydpmzU_i2hg

Thanks to @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social for talking about how Trump still has no idea what this song (or book/ show) is about.

Reminders that Gavroche is the funniest character (except for Myriel)

#LesMis

From Volume IV: Saint-Denis; Book VI: Little Gavroche; Chapter II: In Which Little Gavroche Extracts Profit from Napoleon the Great

Hugo, of course, must engage in a little recreational English-bashing, as his culture dictates :v

NO EPONINE

KEEP IT TO YOURSELF

HAVE YOUR HAPPY ENDING WITH COSETTE TT^TT

EPONINE

EPONINE I LOVE YOU

Best character. She deserved so much better. They could never make me hate you, Eponine

Waters an 80 year old's entire garden and thinks of herself as the devil despite only wanting a small escape from her wretched status ;~;

(She deserved to get with Cosette)

Marius, the kind of fool who borrows money from his friends to give to a known criminal >:(
