I love how the first thing Fauchelevent says to Valjean in the convent is a stock pickup line:
"Did you fall from heaven? There is no trouble about that: if ever you do fall, it will be from there."
It's just like
Valjean: *terrified, panicking, not sure where he is, and having an emotional breakdown over Cosette nearly dying* Fauchelevent: Did you fall from heaven? bc baby.....ur an angel <3

Hugo keeps telling us that Valjean has told people something , or said something Often, or was Often Heard to Say X . Given that Valjean is a pretty isolated person who barely speaks about the past even to Cosette, who does he keep talking to??

I've seen several sites mention this, it's real.
Do not make the MISTAKE of thinking you need to put your side forward. The Guardian is transphobic as fuck, and will twist your words. DO NOT ENGAGE.
By the way, this is in the aftermath of the Cass Report, and the goal will be to make Trans DIY something that needs to be regulated or stamped out. DO NOT ENGAGE.

okay so this post is wrong but what the heck it’s a Tumblr post, right, it’s mostly a joke, only it’s so perfectly echoing an idea I’ve seen elsewhere too, from actual paid critics and academic critiques, that Hugo “wasn’t writing for emotional teenagers”, that he’d be horrified by fandom, that he was too High and Erudite for the likes of  screaming theater kids and emotional teenagers
y’all. Y’all. 
Victor Hugo knew what fandom was.  And he absolutely LOVED it. 
Keep reading

He already has effectively infinite money for his purposes when he’s dealing with Thenardier, though, and he didn’t dig it up on the way to the inn. (And I don’t get the sense he ever let Cosette anywhere near this secret?) Was he hiding that on his body the whole time he was in the bagne, or was it somehow in Paris? But Paris doesn’t *like* him, he’s not good at Paris the way he is at woods
I’m kinda baffled that this all gets ZERO mention

Add to this that—as far as I can tell, he doesn’t even dig up any money at Montfermeil when he gets there this time? Just checks his landmarks and stomps the ground a bit.
(For anyone not picturing the map of this… Toulon/Cape Brun and Montfermeil are 500 miles apart)
It feels like Hugo is assuming he has not just cash but massive amounts of it actually on his body.

Myriel is a folklore Trickster. So is Gavroche.
*elaborate red stringboard argument about how different characters in Les Mis are living in different genres and Cosette is Fairy Tale so hard that she changes other people's narrative genres when she brings them in to her life*
