i started listening to les mis yesterday and i don’t really know what’s going on but here are my thoughts so far:
i do not care about the straight people BUT im getting big Found Family energy from revolution bois
also! “red and black” “do you hear the people sing” and “the confrontation” are my favorite songs so far
i know none of the characters but at the end when they’re talking about empty tables i am so fucking sad for some reason
valjean and javert are so painfully french it’s making my head hurt. can they stop?
javert is a dramatic little bitch and we love it
valjean found family dad

Valjean is ADHD and Javert is autistic, very telling because Javert can't adjust for shit while Valjean seemed to have gone through a rabbit hole between poverty and bourgeois

You ever find it funny how Jack came up with her own name (Jacqueline/Jack Nought) and it happened to be the same first name as the Illusive Man? Subject 0 uses Jack as a mask and false identity, whereas The Illusive Man's true identity is Jack Harper.

Do yall wanna know my actual favorite butterfly effect?
Two people fucking on a mountain indirectly lead to my favorite comic of all time, Under the Red Hood.
Let me explain.
Joseph Hugo married a woman named Sophie Trébuchet in 1797. He was a general in Napoleon's army so they moved around quite a bit. In a letter he would later write to his son, he and his wife had been on a trip on June 24th 1801 to get from one post to the next and he believed this, on the highest peaks of the Vosges Mountains, is where he believed they conceived their son, who would later become the Ocean Man and famed author Victor Hugo.
(Fun fact: Jean Valjeans prisoner number, 24601, is absolutely in reference to his believed conception date)
Victor Hugo grows up and obviously is responsible for many works, such as Les Miserables and The Hunchback of Notre-Dame and was never one to shy away from political commentary. Thus, he was exiled from France and sent to living on the Channel Islands. It was here that he wrote a novel titled The Man Who Laughs.
Like many of his works, this one does have different adaptations. One in particular came out in 1928 starring Conrad Veidt as the character Gwynplaine, or the Man Who Laughs.
Fast forward about a little over a decade later in 1940. A comic book writer comes into work to be greeted by two artists he worked with, one who did significantly less work than the others. These three men were Bill Finger, Bob Kane and Jerry Robinson.
Now the details of this meeting are...well, up in the air. Each man had their own account to it, and Bob Kane especially is the most unreliable given that he took credit for literally everything and we went over 70 years without Bill Finger getting any sort of credit to actually creating Batman. But what we do know is that there was a drawing of a playing card and a face for the joker card; and Bill Finger said, "Hey, that looks like Conrad Veidt in the Man Who Laughs."
They pushed further with that angle in making the character, a new villain for their hero; the obvious, Joker.
Some years later we get a little bit of an origin story in 1951, in the comic The Man Behind the Red Hood! (ALSO written by Bill Finger) Some college students are trying to solve this decades old case of a burglar in a red pill helmet that was called the Red Hood and trying to figure out who it was. Teaming up with Batman and Robin, they find out that the Red Hood was in fact Joker's old alias. He used to be a lab worker that was stealing from a playing card company with that alias. He was caught by Batman and threw himself into some chemical waste to escape, thus becoming the Joker.
This origin has stuck around in some form ever since. The moniker was unused for quite a long time after this, but would eventually find a new home in a different character.
See, in the 80s, Batman's second sidekick, Jason Todd, was killed off in a very brutal fashion after a fucking poll that people could call two different numbers to decide if they were going to save him or not. I will get into why I have so many frustrations with everything surrounding this story another day, but the important thing to know here is that the Joker killed Jason while Jason was trying to save his mother.
And for a good period of time there, Jason became a character that you did not bring back to life. Until they did.
A storyline running from 2005 to 2006 came into life, called Under the Hood. In it, Batman has to fight a new foe taking on the mantle of Red Hood, only to discover its Jason Todd, brought back to life from the Lazarus Pit, and taking on the mantle of the man that murdered him to go fucking murder the Joker and take control of crime in Gotham and do what he believes Bruce couldn't, all while dealing with trauma and feeling replaced.
So yeah. We wouldn't have my favorite character or story if it wasn't for Victor Hugo's parents fucking on a mountain and conceiving him there where "The elevated origin seems to have had effects on [Victor Hugo] so that [his] muse is continually sublime". That is a quote from that letter. Victor Hugo's mountain conception where he got a great muse is the reason for the Joker and Red Hood. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

Today I present to you this gem from the Belgian les mis account, asking us what our prison number would be, which is. Certainly a move.
Tumblr media
Translation : 24601 - Nordin (Javert actor in this production) explains why this is such an important number in Les Misérables. What would be your prison number? 🤔
Note : thanks again to @javertautismtruther for letting me know about this one ! I try to share the posts I can find, but I must admit Instagram posts and posts of non-english speaking les mis account often fly under the radar so if you ever see something like this, a heads-up is always more than welcome !

Y/N, a Deadpool variant, stabs Lady Deathstrike thru a wall and keeps Logan at bay…
Logan: what the-?! She’s trying to kill us
Y/N: give a few minutes Prisoner 24601. She’s been brainwashed.
Logan: what?
Y/N: almost there, you handsome lumberjack
Deathstrike shakes her head and looks around confused…
Deathstrike: who are you two?
Y/N: your saviors. One of whom is a Broadway megastar and the other is dressed like a sex toy

Underrated Riverdale bit is FP having the prisoner number 24601 when he was in jail like he’s a put-upon victim of the system and not a dude who kidnapped a teenager and coveted up his murder.

please please explain what you mean by your prison number being the date you were conceived, because that's how victor hugo picked 24601
So Victor Hugo was born 26th of February, 1802
or 26/2/02 Counting back nine months, well...you can easily land on June, 1801
and if you're Victor Hugo and you have a specific date in June that you want to have been conceived , because you like the spot your parents were on that day, well...June 24, 1801 - 24/6/01 -- is no stretch at all
I have no idea if that's what they SAID the significance of that prison number is but...that's it . And now you know! You can't unknow it!! XD

Freshly translated extract of vIraSngan IQ' (Sad French People)!
I'm so happy that this extract is done!!! I hope the translation is good :0
I had a hard time with some of the words, and I had to get a bit creative with the line "Look down" (and anything referencing looking somewhere), because I couldn't find a word in Klingon for to look, or to make eye contact with something/someone (on second thought, it might be the same word as to see, but it's done now so-)
Fun fact: Javert's Klingon name (or the Klingon transliteration of his name) is actually a double pun! "jav" means six in Klingon, which appears in Valjean's prisoner number 24601, and it is also a Klingon slang word meaning prisoner! (A bit ironic considering that Javert hates prisoners/criminals in general...)
Thank you so much @daily-klingon for your help, I couldn't have done it without you!
Also thank you to @psalm22-6 and @walrudel for the support :0
