What a strange thing the sisterhood of women after battle is; an echo of the brotherhood of men during it, one following the other as night follows day.

Reblogging to read later because this is going to make me sad, isn't it?

This post on the price of corpses is to blame for this monstrosity.

And no, I don’t want to imagine how it smells in Joly’s apartment come summer.

Oh boy, ten francs for a corpse, what a steal! “The Greater Journey: Americans in Paris,” by David McCullough.

This is actually Joly's day. Corpse first, then flowers.

Pocket!Bossuet is squeeing over Jehanon too!

I have loved few things as much as I love pocket!bossuet.

REPOSTING because I’m a dork and left someone out. *headdesk* My even later than originally planned contribution for Barricade day 2014 and also slightly belated birthday present for fellow revolutionary, Kcrab88! Happy Birthday dear…have some feels. All hands to the barricades!

From the top, left to right: Enjolras+red flag, Joly+oysters for breakfast, Courfeyrac+his hat, Bahorel+tearing down the notice, Bossuet+the omnibus, Marius+the handkerchief, Eponine+protecting Marius, Valjean+bring him home, Jehan+reciting love poems, Feuilly+vivent les peuples, Gavroche+fetching gunpowder, Combeferre+the wounded national guard and Grantaire+permetes-tu?

This is so beautiful! All the details of each one are so very fitting for the characters and I just love it. What a wonderful Barricade Day contribution and I’m honored to have it also be a birthday present! Amazing job, my friend! :)

The Center, The Chief, and the Guide.

I’ve been drawing the amis looking a lot like their 2012 movie actors lately, and though I love those guys’ precious little faces, I thought Barricade Day(s) would be a good time to experiment with some non-movie headcanons.

very simple drawings of joly, bossuet, combeferre and courfeyrac

Oh I love your Joly so much! The rest are awesome too.

182 years ago on this day, the characters in Les Miserables would have sung One Day More.

Thought some of you would also appreciate the fancy leech jar on display at the National Museum of American History

Joly & Combeferre for my half of a trade with sashaatthebarricade!

I imagine that someone who can draw a moth from memory might practice scientific technical illustration as a hobby.

I LOVE THIS. The colors are so lovely!

Wow, that’s a really nice drawing of a drawing! I am not joking even a LITTLE, those are tricky!

And aw, they both look so relaxed, what a neat little moment!

Oh gosh this is gorgeous. I just love how happy they both look.

and les amis.

Les Amis!

OH WOW. The lighting is incredible! And the texture looks like swirling smoke and dust and it’s just so fantastic. I love how everyone’s clearly themselves with no color cues and very little detail,just from the body language and basic shapes.

This is just gorgeous. Wow.

1/∞ cutest les mis caps

The most Joly thing you can think of.

And the second part of Aporeticelenchus’ commission!

Bossuet, Joly and Musichetta chibis :D

ajgjkasgklsahglskahf LOOK HOW CUTE HOW IMPOSSIBLY CUTE LITTLE SMILEY FACE I’M FLAILING and you’ve still put so much attention into the clothes, and Musichetta’s hair is so great!

Oh!

Dash, you are killing me with cute Joly today. And I love it. 

Another Country, dir. Marek Kanievska (1984)

ariadneslostthread and I went to see the theatre production of this last night. All the pretty men. All the angst. All the Marxism. Get ready for the Les Mis AUs. 

Bossuet, Joly with a cold, and Grantaire.

Sorry I can’t sketch up something better, I’m feeling a little sick tonight.

Oh!

In which the women of Paris become Victor Hugo.
