    Summary

    They finally cross a line they'd been dancing around for years. What starts as a simple massage after Dan injures his shoulder, turns into a quiet unraveling of everything they'd been too scared to admit.

    Summary

    “It’s not great,” said Enjolras. “Hearing you talk about how you used to be oh so in love with me - joking about it all the time, seriously, all the time - when I very much remember how cruel I used to be to you. And now that I finally act like a decent human being, like a friend-“

    Grantaire interrupted him. “I liked it,” he said. “How cruel you were. Everyone else either pitied or ignored me, but not you.”

    OR: 3 times Grantaire jokes about how obsessed with Enjolras he used to be, and 1 time Enjolras protests.

    Summary

    Enjolras is being weird, all quiet and docile. It’s making it hard to be mad at him, not that it’s stopping Grantaire. He’s willing to put the work in, for Enjolras.

    or, Enjolras starts a fight at Grantaire's art gallery opening, and won't tell him why.

    Summary

    [James]
    Do u want my address?

     

    No James I do not want your address. You stupid idiot. That would be dumb. It’s one A.M. There’s no reason for me to come over. We’re broken up. I’ve got to figure out how to stop thinking about you when I have sex with other people.

     

    [Regulus]
    Yes

    This may be the worst idea Regulus has ever had.

    Summary

    But the stage lights blur out the crowd and Sirius gets to his knees in front of Remus with their guitar and bass between them, and he does it again in their hotel room, has been doing it since their first tour, has been wanting to do it since he first learned about wanting, the kind that ruins you.

     

    a band, a tour, and the kind of undefined relationship that drives you insane.
