    WHOOEEE! Now the plot’s really thickening. And by now you’re probably REALLY in the thick of things.

    Btw, isn’t it so neat that Gavroche is Thenardier’s son? I mean…he’s the total foil to his parents (and sisters sometimes) in regards to being poor and all that goes with it. He’s just so happy anyway, while all his dad can think of is…[Read more]

  • Hey @LivGiordano, you were telling me awhile back that I’d like the Little House episodes with Nellie falling in love/getting married. Well we just got to that point, and you’re so right. That was hilarious. XD Percival is awesome.

    It’s 1832 (or 31, but I think 32), currently. *nod* And not THE French Revolution, in case you were in any doubt. Some people think that for some reason. ;P This is just a lil’ minor one, which really did happen, but Hugo put his own characters in.

    YES COURFEYRAC. O.o I love him so much. Ahh yes, poor Eponine. :/

    I know! And YES, the poor…[Read more]

    • Yeah, I’ve recently got it straight that it’s 1832. Yeah, I figured. There was talk of one having happened in July, but I don’t think the actual one has started yet.

      XD Yeah, he’s cool.

      Yeah. I haven’t seen any more of them since they fell asleep in the elephant.

      Now Jean Valjean is possibly taking her to England! So Marius went to his…[Read more]

      • @emma-flournoy

        Yeah! The revolution has really begun and it’s crazy. I haven’t encountered our friends yet, since Marius returned from seeing his grandfather, so I don’t know what’s going on for them yet.

        Yeah, Gavroche is the total opposite – he is really happy! I think it’s because while they were well-off, his parents didn’t love him anyway,…[Read more]

      • *eternal sobbing*

        Heheh. XD And mebbe some of it’s also that he’s learned to see the good in life no matter his situation, because he’s a decent chap. ;P

      • @emma-flournoy XD

        Yep.

        Wow, things are really heating up; Cosette is gone (at least, it looks like it), Marius has joined the bunch at the Corinth barricade, Eponine tried to make him die, but just died herself (poor thing; I don’t think badly of her even though she wanted my favourite character killed). Pere Mabeuf died, and Marius, expecting…[Read more]

      • @emma-flournoy

        Uh oh. Jean Valjean found Cosette’s note in her blotter book, and he intercepted the one from Marius that Gavroche was delivering, and I dunno what he’s going to do!!!! D:

      • *shrieks* SO MUCH STUFF!!! Agh. You’ve probably already gotten over the climax at this point. Some pretty awesome stuff in there, eh?
        Sorry my replies have been a little longer in coming; life’s insanely busy right now. 😛

      • @emma-flournoy

        If I haven’t yet, I’m really close. It feels very climax-y. 😛

        I read three more chapters than I intended to last night (I’ve taken to reading them in 3’s XD). The reason being, at the very end of the third, GAVROCHE WAS KILLED! And I couldn’t just finish there! D: :'( I tell you, I almost wanted to cry (and that’s hard to make me…[Read more]

    Nice.

  • Emma Flournoy posted a new activity comment 7 years, 9 months ago

    Ha! But of course, what were you thinking?! XD I love it. Javert’s arrival can always make such things crystal clear.

    Well I just got sick too (yeah, overnight 😛 ), so we can be a team now. XD Aww…de poor widdle fing. *sniff* Orlando! 😀 That’s hilarious. A violin we have I used to play on I named Fili once, but my current one isn’t named.…[Read more]

  • Emma Flournoy posted a new activity comment 7 years, 9 months ago

    Yup. 😉 He’s great.

    Ooooh. Such complexity, yes. XD I love those scenes.

    Oh, yay for sickness. :/ Hope you get better soon. Yeah, that makes a lotta sense. I have problems with things out of my control. XD Well, maybe life’ll settle down sometime soon! I’m sure your violin misses you. 😉
    Errrr…I’m not really sure. I’m fixing to finish the…[Read more]

  • Emma Flournoy posted a new activity comment 7 years, 9 months ago

    Yup, L’aigle (aka Bossuet, as I think it calls him more later) is like that. Really sweet as a general rule.

    Yeah. XD

    Yo, how cometh violin? Mine’s actually going really well. Has something to do with having surrendered it to the Lord recently, undoubtedly… so God gets the credit. We’ll see if I can quit trying to do it on my own. XD

  • Emma Flournoy posted a new activity comment 7 years, 9 months ago

    I know, RIGHT? 😂 Poor kid. Seriously bro.

    Isn’t Courfeyrac especially nice? And L’aigle hilarious (if a bit too practical joke minded)? And Enjolras is downright awesome, though you may not think so yet at this point. He can be over-hard on those he deems not devoted/whatever enough.

    I know, Marius & his grandfather are sad. :”( It’s such a…

    • @emma-flournoy

      XD

      I like Courfeyrac, I think. I don’t know L’aigle well enough yet, but from what I’ve read of him, he seems very light-hearted and carefree. Not familiar with Enjolras enough yet either.

      Anyway, Marius definitely reminds me of a more OTT Maximilian. XD

      • Aha, I thought Bossuet was L’aigle. I recently came across him speaking, and I was thinking “He sounds like how Emma described L’aigle” and I remembered L’aigle wasn’t his real name, so I figured it was him. 😉
        Courfeyrac seems really down-to-earth, but fun.

        Things are happenin’. Marius just got Javert’s help in catching Jondrette, but I think…[Read more]

      • @emma-flournoy
        So, I was actually almost starting to wonder is M. LeBlanc wasn’t Jean Valjean after all! :O But his behaviour as soon as Javert entered the scene made me see the error of my ways. What was I thinking?? XD

        Thanks. Life is more settled, it’s just sickness now. Yes, my poor widdle violin (which, fun fact, I named Orlando XD) is all…[Read more]

      • @emma-flournoy

        I blame my cold-brain. 😉 Yes, it does. XD You know who’s running from the law (Jean) and who’s just confused (Marius). XD

        Oops, I must have sent it over the internet – must be a virus 😛 XD Yay, sick buddies. XD lol, yes, Orlando (not that I refer to it as that all the time 😉 ). But I called it that because it was made by…[Read more]

    Heh. I know the feeling. XD But yes, they are. All of them to some degree, some of them more than others. (*muffled screeching* ENJOLRASSSS) I love them all. Mostly.

    @Catwing That’s totally all right. 😀 Thank you verra much! ‘preciate it. *eats wafer cookies and chocolate with gusto* (Gusto is yummy, in case you wondered.)

  • Emma Flournoy posted a new activity comment 7 years, 9 months ago

    Aha okay, I guess you hadn’t gotten to much of his drama yet when I asked. ;P I was thinking specifically then of when he was going through all those changes in his political views, and generally doing drastic things like spreading his arms and yelling out the open window something about Napoleon. Yeah, his grandfather is a bit tough. *rubs hands*…[Read more]

    • That was pretty OTT. XD I mean, his change of his political views was realistic (he was learning about a whole other side he’d never been told about before) if a little rushed. We only just met him, so we might not have cared about all that just yet. 😉 But opening the window was a bit OTT. XD But yeah, I think I’m going to like Marius.

    @Leumeister

    Eh, yeah… 😛 I’m not very active around here anymore, but I still hop on when I’m tagged.

    So will I, as long as that’s a fine arrangement with you @Catwing? *offers you bugs*

    Yup, it is. 😉

  • Emma Flournoy posted a new activity comment 7 years, 9 months ago

    YESSS yes yes yes yes that’s it. 😀 Kinda neat story huh? Esp. with his father and the tie-in with Thenardier @ the Battle of Waterloo. Ick.
    And if you think Marius is any degree of overdramatic now, just wait. XD

  • Emma Flournoy posted a new activity comment 7 years, 9 months ago

    ‘I’m a Kapeefer, ’til we’re old and grey!’

    Is that it? Or simply, ‘TIL WE’RE OLD AND GREY!’

  • Emma Flournoy posted a new activity comment 7 years, 9 months ago

    Yup, totally. 😀
