my favourite cast member of les mis - Aaron Tveit as Enjolras
Natalie Goodman is doing her homework - a family tree project. Most of the other kids only go back 50 years or so and then give up. But Natalie works harder than all the other kids and she traces her family back to the 1800s. It turns out that she is of French descent. Her great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather was a man named Enjolras who died aged just 22 in a brutal battle during the French revolution. She finds out as much as she can about Enjolras and it seems that he was a charming young man, capable of being terrible. Upon reading about his life, Natalie determines that he was clever and determined and passionate, as well as having a fairly fluid sexuality. It seems he was deeply infatuated with his friend Grantaire, and Natalie, seeing a picture of Grantaire, can’t blame him. However, it seemed to be customary for Enjolras and his friends to visit prostitutes, and Natalie realises that he inevitably slept with a few of them. Appearances sake, perhaps? From what she could gather, Enjolras didn’t care much for women. Regardless, one of the prostitutes evidently became pregnant. Natalie sees several pictures Enjolras - at a table in a cafe, holding an enormous flag, marching through Paris, clutching a gun at the barricades, talking tenderley to Grantaire, and the most haunting of all, his lifeless body draped over the barricades, dripping with blood, his eyes staring at nothing. Unbeknownst to Natalie, Gabe has been watching her for the past hour. He looks at these pictures of Enjolras and can’t tear his eyes away. It’s as if he’s looking at his twin, the resemblance is so strong. Natalie finds that Enjolaras’ child, a girl, ended up in a small town in Germany, giving birth to a girl in the late 1800s who grows up to wear a brown dress with her hair in plaits. And Natalie nearly drops her laptop because it’s like she’s looking into a mirror.
what if the Les Mis movie makes loads of people fall in obsessive love with Aaron Tveit (which will happen because let’s face it he’s Aaron fucking Tveit) and then they all fall in love with Next to Normal and then all the new hype about N2N means they have to revive it and also make a movie
What if in the les mis movie, enjolras refuses to accept the fact that he’s dead and starts singing “i’m alive” and marius gets confused because he’s seeing his dead friend pole dancing and marius gets even more confused because he’s supposed to love cosette but his pants are becoming awfully tight as he struggles to tear his eyes away from enjorlas and marius finds himself wishing that he were the pole
omg but aaron tviet is going to be like ‘BEFORE THE BARRICADES ARIIIIIIISE’ and just omg

- Annaleigh Ashford
- Melissa Benoist
- Adam Chanler-Berat
- Andrew Rannells
- Melissa Rauch
- Jenna Ushkowitz
and there’s more but OMFG imagine if I got in and I’d be walking the same halls as ANDREW FUCKING RANNELLS I mean askjdalskdjalkjdalkljlk
also the college is on the upper east side and it’s a 10 minute walk from times square I mean askldjsalkdjakljdakljdskldjslalk
sorry for the freakout, it’s just that I am actually starting to believe that I might just possibly potentially maybe have a shot at studying acting in the big apple

all my musical albums. please tell me if there’s others I should have…I do also have west side story and newsies and a lloyd webber compilation but they wouldn’t fit!
also I’m aware that smash isn’t strictly a musical but I only have the bombshell songs - I don’t have any of the pop covers. so it is basically like a musical soundtrack and the songs are musical theatre style so yeah.
things I am looking forward to in the Les Mis movie:
- Aaron Tveit
things I am not looking forward to in the Les Mis movie:
- the scenes without Aaron Tveit
ways to win my heart
- be Aaron Tveit
