Summary
She knows it’s ridiculous to miss someone who lives in the same house as you, it’s ridiculous to miss something that hasn’t truly been a reality since she was about five years old. But she can’t help it.
She doesn’t let herself think about it too often, but, sometimes, she finds herself staring up at the ceiling, remembering, remembering, remembering.Or, Camilo and Mirabel are best friends, regardless of the circumstances.

Summary
“He’s not the one trying to lead, he’s not the one with people counting on him, he’s not the one with feelings to bruise.”
Combeferre’s head cocks to one side as he watches Enjolras with a steady straight face.
“Feelings to bruise?” Combeferre asks, oh so innocently.
“Yeah, feelings to bruise. I love him, he hates me, what does it matter if I am angry?”Or, Enjolras is in love.

Summary
He’s going to die from this. He will not get through this, he will not get better, he will not stop loving him, he will not survive.
Because Enjolras is stood on the desk in front of him, and he is monologing about who knows what, and he has his hand on Grantaire’s shoulder for stability, and he is shining red and yellow, and he is perfect.Or, flowers are Grantaire's worst enemy.

Summary
Once you were college-aged, with your peers also past the age of maturity, it became standard issue to ask about the tattoos when you were getting to know a group of people. You always went for the oldest first – because they would have had theirs the longest, and might have met their soul mate already, and if so you wanted to hear the stories. (The funnier or more meet-cute the better.) For this reason, Bahorel, as a tall and broad and scruff-bearing fellow whose relatively older age tended to be readily apparent, always got asked before anyone else. He tried to make it quick and nonchalant, so as not to disappoint.
Why?
He didn’t have one.
-
(This is based on dameferre's response to an ask about the soulmates-tattoo idea, in which she elaborated on her headcanons for all of the Amis' tattoos/words/soul mates. The characters' tattoos, words, placement, and meetings are all derived from her.)

Summary
"It isn’t all that bad,” Grantaire says, tail waving around idly. “I mean. I’m better at being a dragon. Better than I was at being human. I was pretty shit at being human.”
“But,” Enjolras thinks about Grantaire’s mismatched hoard and his gruff but overall friendly demeanor. “You’re awful at being a dragon.”
Grantaire responds to that by slamming his tail right into Enjolras’ gut.
-
Enjolras is a knight in slightly battered armor and Grantaire is the laziest dragon in all of history. The road to happily ever after was apparently paved with much more bickering than Enjolras had expected. (Or the one where curses and emotions make everything complicated.)

Summary
A man can only take so much, and (after weeks) Enjolras can't stand another minute of Grantaire gushing over some unknown love.

Summary
“Oh, come on,” Grantaire scoffs, because 1) he’s an asshole and 2) having Enjolras’ furious gaze directed at him and only him is...something, to say the least. Intoxicating, if he’s feeling pretentious. And honestly, when is he ever not. “Pretty boy power prodigies like you benefit from this ’oppressive system’.”
“Grantaire,” Bossuet whispers frantically. “You maybe wanna, uh. Cut it out.”
He wants to do no such thing, thank you very much. He’s on a roll. But then he notices the telltale scent of smoke in the air. He notices the wisps of it coming from Enjolras’ clenched fists. Ah. Whoops.
-
Enjolras doesn’t like the Powered education system and Grantaire doesn’t even have a power. Together, they don’t fight crime, obviously. They mostly try their best not to burn the school down. Sky High AU.

Summary
Grantaire had never spoken about work in Enjolras’ hearing, and Enjolras had never really bothered to ask. The problem with this was the surprise he got about five minutes into his new job at American Bowl, the faux-American bowling alley on the edge of the tenth arrondissement.
Or, Enjolras is suddenly poor and needs a job, and Grantaire happens to work at the same place. They end up having actual conversations instead of just shouting at each other, and Enjolras realises that he actually kind of enjoys Grantaire's company. Cue meandering chatter and clumsy handling of feelings.
