This is an extremely insightful essay. It was a great read, considering I'm acutally studying the novel for my French class..it'll put things into an interesting perspective.:)

Thank you so much for this.

[eponine89]

You're very welcome, and I hope that this in someway helps your studies. I'm glad I was able to shed some light on the relationship.

I have never seen/read this, but I read the essay, and from it, I was able to really *get* and understand what was happening. =o This is tempting me to add the novel to my list of to do things, even though when it comes to reading I am lazy. xD;

But yes, this was interesting from a person who knows pretty much nothing on the fandom's perpective. :o Well-written and deep, and again giving me a good idea about how the characters all work and think.

Thank you for reading even though you don't have much knowledge in the fandom. You really should pick up the novel. It's over one thousand pages long and though a difficult read it's definatelly worth the time.

I tried to tap into my inner feelings when I wrote this especially on my interpretation, because I wanted to express everything I've been longing to say to the opposing side without being an utter meanie about it.

Thanks again for reading.

Nice! Very detailed :D

There are some spelling errors in it though... I don't mind them, but if you had this in mind for school or anything...

[eponine89]

I'm currently fixing them up now. I didn't have a beta-reader and looked over this again and again.

I was wondering what you would think of it considering that you are a supporter of Cosette/Marius. Thankfully you enjoyed the essay despite that.

Thanks for reading.

[romantiqua]

Hehe, yeah I really enjoyed it :)
I do have a soft spot for Eponine x Marius though... But only in small amounts and to a reasonable hight since I love Cosette x Marius and believe that they should always end up together. But a certain amount of cuteness between Marius and Eponine is not too bad.

[eponine89]

I understand, we all have OTPs. I'm exactly the opposite. I don't mind a little Marius/Cosette here and there, but Marius/Eponine will always be number 1 for me. I corrected as much as I could, but I'm no expert on correcting my own work. I wish I could send it into class, but I think my professor would look up at me and go, "What the hell?" ^^;;;

Excellent essay! I just have to point out the following:

Eponine: Here, you can always catch me in.
Marius: Mind the police don't catch you out.

[eponine89]

Thank you so much.

Nice observation, and now I must friend you for it. ^___^

No problem! I was just in a production of Les Mis over the summer, so I had to hear those lyrics almost every day. :P
