    Summary

    “I’ve never had any hope for a good king, or a fair war. Or for the sun to shine each morning. Or for good harvests. I have hope in you. Every day. And we fight in these battles for your future. Tell me you understand.”

    “I understand.”

     

    The war gives Erik bloody cuts and sweaty sore muscles, stinging eyes, bruises the color of leather. Istvan gives him armor of pure white.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I love how complicated this is and how deftly handled. I don't usually go in for super long fanfic but the premise of this grabbed me and I'm really glad I did.

    Summary

    Post-barricade survival fic about found family. Combeferre searches for Enjolras, Cosette tries to save her father, Enjolras atones, and Courfeyrac struggles to come to terms with all of it.

    Summary

    In which Grantaire laments about Enjolras and a rebellion doomed to fail to Javert, and Javert may or may not have a similar situation such as the former.

    Grantaire, awoken from his sleep, finds a captive audience for his rambling in the form of a captured spy.

    Takes place in an unholy brick-adaptations combination where events happen a little differently at the barricade.

    Summary

    “I shouldn’t have let him go off by himself,” Courfeyrac said finally, sinking lower in his seat. “We should have just waited a bit longer to see if the polytechniciens turned up, or came out searching for us. He might have been killed. I mean, just look at him.”

    Enjolras couldn’t, but managed to say shortly: “It is a risk we all acknowledged when we began our work.” This was a simple truth—so simple that he had found no need to reflect upon the possibility that some, if not all of them, would eventually be faced with giving up their lives for the Republic [...] Why, then, did he feel insincere, somehow, in voicing the notion aloud? Was it not true for Combeferre as much as for the rest of them?

    In the wake of the July Revolution, the Amis' scramble to maintain their progress leaves Combeferre seriously injured, and Enjolras questioning things he had previously taken for granted.

    “Its creator calls it a gas vacuum engine,” said Combeferre over the hellish noise, pronouncing the English words with a certain meticulousness, “though I think this one in particular ought to do more vacuuming."

    For the kinkmeme, prompt is: "Combeferre/René Laennec - Because, hey, it's totally plausible that 19/20-year-old Combeferre could've studied at Collège de France under this professor, right?"

    RIGHT.

    In execution: Combeferre's friends piss him off and he almost explores other options, but then doesn't.

    Summary

    “Mama, I’m sure cousin is too focused on his studies to pay attention to girls,” is the interruption, and everyone laughs at the girl’s innocence.

    Enjolras takes a moment before he laughs too, quietly agreeing, but his smile is tight, almost painful for someone who knows him well enough to recognise it.

    Combeferre wonders, sometimes.
