      @@celestesmith8596 I'm French and I specialised in litterature in my studies so needless to say I had to study Hugo extensively. Actually one of my finals was about him, and another year-long project was all about him hi slife and his work. And if there is one thing I learned is that he knew oh so well what he was doing. there is no way he didn't think of all the romantic subtext (not always so subtile tbh) between Enjolras and Grantaire, that was totally on purpose haha
      now mind you, at the time there was a thing called "l'amitié amoureuse" (meaning somehing like "love friendship" or "romantic friendship") and it used to describe a friendship that is closer, both physically and emotionnally but without any s**ual relation whatsoever. This is why there are rumors or allegations that Marie-Antoinette was bisexual , and it could be what Grantaire feels for Enjolras. But I'm pretty sure he's in love with him and Victor Hugo wrote it this way for a reason imo x)

      @@candyjaned.pineda6903 ah, i guess we found the person who isnt a Les Mis fan. So:
      In Les Miserables (the book) there is a student group comprised of revolutionaries that participates in the june rebellion, an uprising that happened in paris in 1832. Their leader is a man named Enjolras, who really believes in the idea of a french republic. Among the students, there's Grantaire, a drunk and a cynic, who does not believe in the revolution, but 'admires, loves and venerates' Enjolras, which pushes him to participate and eventually die there. Now, because of how the passage in the book was written, and Grantaire's characterisation as a whole, most modern people read that as 'so, grantaire was super gay for enjolras'
      Fast forward to 2012. Les Mis is a very popular musical, and it's getting a movie adaptation. George played Grantaire in it, and if Im remembering it correctly, he read the book and played Grantaire as being head over heels for Enjolras, but without mentioning it to anyone. [Everyone liked that]. Now, in this song, he has changed a few lyrics to make it fit Grantaire and Enjolras. And it's still one of the best things to happen in this fandom. So I guess the short reply is 'we ship these two characters and george is the captain of that ship'.
      (I really really hope this response makes any sense and answers your question. It was a bit longer than I intended, sorry)

      I'm currently reading a fanfic about that! Grantaire has a CZcams account where he does music, but it's anonymous. And of course, Enjolras (who he has a crush on, obviously) is his biggest fan, without knowing that it's actually Grantaire.

Anyways, E's got one about social judtice, of course, and when R finds that there's a dude on the internet who actually cares about all this so much, he can't help himself and starts arguing with him in the comments.
