Enjolras - Blog Posts
The Olympics opening ceremony has sparked my enjoyment of Les mis once again and would love an enjoltaire roleplay. I’m 25, he/him, looking for 20+ roleplay partners. Semi-lit/advanced lit depending on the person, the plot, and the vibes. On a good day my replies break discords word limit.
Please just try to match reply length as much as possible. I’m looking for someone to play grantaire, as I’m used to playing enjolras. Other than that I’m not picky. Feel free to like or dm me if interested. We’ll do some plotting and then migrate over to discord.
Brick versions of some les mis characters! Can’t decide if I like the colored of the black and white version better.

I don't know if this is something anyone cares about but if you like fandom history you might find it fun?
I've been slowly and painstakingly digitizing all of my sketchbooks from 2015 until now and sorting the pages by fandom, so here's approximately 5 years of Les Mis sketches, starting in 2016 and with a few unknown dates. These are only some of MANY. ID in alt text for all of these. For any screen reader users, there are a LOT of sketches, so it's a lot of alt text to get through.

I posted my first Les Misérables fanfic on AO3! It ships several couples, mainly Enjoltaire, but also Courferre. Here's the link: (title name) idk (1790 words) by mayaruinstheinternet
The 60s AU thingy is finished!!
from left to right, Cosette, Enjolras & Grantaire.
This was super fun to draw! I've been meaning to make 60s AU art for a while now, like I came up with the idea for the AU a full year ago cos that's when I first started listening to the Beatles (omg so much of the 60s AU is just me being a massive Beatles nerd)
Cosette's outfit is inspired by the 1966 outfit from this Gabi's Vintage video
also Grantaire has long hair bc it's the late 60s and that's when the Beatles had long hair absolutely loved drawing his blazer thing i love the pattern
i have like,, so many more ideas for 60s AU art, i will definitely be doing more at some point
some more 60s AU art
Inspired by this wonderful outfit from day 16 of the Get Back documentary bc I can and will make everything related to the Beatles.

enjoltaire fic idea
(ik it’s wrong, it’s just a first draft)
enjolras starts out as political activist in the same way that lindsay bluth is from, “arrested development.” until he meets his first love, who shows him true faith & passion. eventually their relationship ends somehow, (i haven’t figured it out yet, but i’m thinking something tragic.)
then flash forward to a few months, or years into the les amis. he knows about grantaire’s feelings, & grantaire is doing that’s thing, that for some reason, guys do in tv shows where he’s trying to convince the girl, (well in this case the guy, but u all know what i mean,) to fall for him, & it kinda works after a little while. but enjorlas is confused by his attraction to grantaire, because he’s so different from the guys he’s dated before. he even feels ashamed that he could ever fall for someone like grantaire.
then he, “realizes,” that he must do the same thing to grantaire that his first lover had done to him. r thinks of it as just some playful banter, & their relationship evolves into something more serious.
r takes enjorlas to go stargazing one night, upon a beautiful hill covered with hyacinths. grantaire throws down a blanket right by a laurel tree. they look towards the stars. enjorlas’ pale golden ringlets lay within correspondence of one another, upon grantaire’s chest. r plays w/ each curls whilst expressing his adoring love for this beam of warmth & light, composed of a flaming crimson. finally resting his powers upon a cynic’s heart. not even truly saying the phrase, for it had felt almost as another breath. something he hadn’t the need to think about, something that was just done, “i love you, enjolras.” that’s how you knew if he was serious, if grantaire ever used the name engolras, which was infact an absurdly rare occasion. as brown met blue, with the slight upwards tilt of thou’s blonde head, the secrets in which it had been keeping began to spring out. “as do i for you.” although the cynic was poor, he had felt the power of all the king’s riches in his possession; once having seen that slight, yet enriching smile spread across a prophet’s face. “even though your progress aa been stunted due to your cynicism. i am willing help as we claw our way through, & i am extatic for the end result”
“my progress?”
“why yes, you’re progress.”
“enjorlas, what do you mean by my progress?!” enj could have sworn he had seen the flowers wilt, & the tree branches shake, as result of grantaire’s anger. “well, i thought i could help with create an exponential growth in your faith, your faith of the cause.” you could see the sense of betrayal consume r’s eyes, “i-i should’ve known,” that same betrayal had spread, creating a ripple through his voice, “i knew this was all too good to be true!” “how could i have let myself believe that you would ever truly be attracted to me?”
“no r, it’s not like that!”
“what then? what was this some beauty & the beast stalkholme syndrome bull crap? you know, you can leave the flat whenever you’d like! no one is keeping you there! you’re the one who insists on staying put to work on the cause, not me, not combferre, not couferyac, just you!”
“taire, you don’t understand!”
“i’m not your test subject, enjorlas! i’m not your next project!”
“r, you where born broken, & you don’t know how to work fixed. i just want to help you, & show you.”
“broken?” enjorlas had realized what he had done. his eyes widened with shock, as a result of his actions. “no no, not like that,” he started to stumble, “y-you know what i mean.”
“oh ya, i know exactly what you mean. oh & by the way, dr. enjorlas. you made an error in your last report,” “the patient’s faith did in-fact increase, it just wasn’t for the cause. it was for you.”
Enjoltaire Head Canons
-grantaire is a comedian. he loves his job. however with being a comedian you kind of forget how to function with normal people, so for example saying things at mildly inappropriate times, & constantly saying dirty things at the “wrong time.” Not to mention offending A LOT of people. Enjolras likes to sit on his high horse & act like he’s love all of that (he’s not,) sometimes he giggles or just smirks & to r it makes it all worth it.
-R’s main news source is John Oliver & SNL’s weekend update (& Enjolras’ twitter feed.)
-Sometimes they’ll watch Comedy Specials together (E’s favorite is George Carlin.)
I've always hc R as Jewish so that makes this 1000 times sadder & 100 times sweeter
Some angst specifically for @definitelygrantaire (you know why!)
Les Amis organize a blockade against a Neo Nazi march, protesters clash with the extremists and fighting breaks out. Couple of the Nazis try to target Enjolras, R intervenes but it all goes badly wrong when someone throws a smoke bomb into the middle of the crowd and armored police goes in…
(R might or might not be getting beaten up, but Enj is always on thin ice with the police, so Bossuet is trying to drag him tf out while Bahorel, Jehan, and Eponine rush to help Grantaire)

Send me proof of your donations and the details for the artwork you desire. YOU CAN SEND IT THROUGH DMs OR EMAIL ME (email and useful links here:)
Depending on how busy this gets, commissions might take two days or more.
*Biggers commissions are available for bigger donations! You can see illustrations I did in the past here.
i saw les mis again last week and i couldnt stop myself from doing this
LES MIS CROSSOVER STORY IDEA
It's basically Les Mis set in His Dark Materials, but the only major thing is the daemons. It's a story shipping Enjolras and Grantaire also. Basically it's "What if they escaped the barricade and also had daemons". If you don't know His Dark Materials, it's okay, because the concept of daemons isn't hard to explain so I can help you out! I need help with les amis and picking daemons for everyone. Please message me if you want to hear about the story/ if you want to help!
