Well.
Writing Enjolras again, in a modern AU this time, as I've been doing for about a month now has started to become a real adventure. I also let Courfeyrac out of HIS cell, but holy shit, Enjolras. The muse that will not be silenced when he believes that freedom is on the line. Tonight it was a blog entry about FEMA responding to an in-game disaster, and it's gone for 61 comments at last count.
I...forgot how angry he could be when he is like this. Righteous, determined, and too angry to let things lie. I'm loving it. I'm really really loving the chance to use the political writers that I've read and to just...let him have his head for a while.
I'm also amused at how much hate he's getting for an entry posted to his personal blog and not the actual in game social network, but it's the attention that he wanted, that he likes, and people aren't typically arrested for blogging vague things like "it's wrong of the government to act without our consent" and "Actually, the people haven't been consulted as to how we're governed. Generations past did that."
He's a nutcase and pretty damn extremist at least in what he writes, but it's so damned much fun. I love my crazy riot inciting muse. So Les Amis ARE getting me through this recovery after all, even more so than I'd expected. :)
Thank you Victor Hugo. For everything but Waterloo and the sewers.
