I got mad, I got mad at the world, and at some of the people involved with these characters and I allowed that to affect my perception of the before mentioned characters. 

So that made me even more mad. Because how could I let what these people did on their own life affect not only my love for the characters but also my ability to write them! 

And it became a vicious circle, that was not helped by how shit S6 is. 

I did some stuff, stopped following some people, and it got better. And eventually it brought me back to them. 

Uff my friend, I have ALL the headcanons for this. I actually have a 45k word document with like my take on this. 

In my AU universe they remember who they are the moment they meet each other. Don’t ask me how it is, their memories just mend and they know but their brains are able to take it and assimilate it.

- Grantaire and Combeferre are brothers. Ferre is older, and he was about 6 or 7 when 3 year old Grantaire was adopted into his family. Also Grantaire is the youngest of Les Amis (not counting Enjolras).

- Grantaire had an amazing childhood out of those first three years of his life. Sadly those 3 years took its tall on him physically, he’s small. Like really small. And his two best friends are Bahorel and Jehan, who are mountains and well, just picture it like GBlagden with Jason Momoa on one side and  Tom Hopper (from BBC Merlin) on the other.

- Grantaire is latino (I’m partial to Mexican, obviously) as is Courfeyrac (He can be part Brazilian XD ). Ferre’s mum is from the island of Guadalupe, Bossuet’s is Indian, Joly is Japanese; Bahorel is polinesian ancestry. Jehan’s parents are from Argelia, Feuilly is jewish of Polish ancestry and Enjolras is of one of those old families that can trace their linage back to Louis XiV or some shit like that. 

- Bahorel and Combeferre are the first two (other than Ferre and R) to meet. First year of College for both of them. 

I do have those 45k still. 

It was NANOWRIMO of like 7 years ago. 

You are ace enough.

No matter what anyone tells you, there is a place for you at the table.

Your voice matters. We want to hear you talk with us about ace-related issues. We want to hear you talk about your experiences in the community.

We should all gather together as the family we are, whether demisexual, grey-asexual, or anywhere else under the ace umbrella.

I don’t know why ya’ll keep trying to play this game, but fine, let’s play:

From left to right

Jasmine- Got tired of her palace life and took control by disguising herself and running away to spend a day in the markets. Openly expressed her contempt for the idea being married off without her consent. Was initially disinterested in Aladdin because she thought he was just another arrogant prince. Fell in love with him for his heart to the point that his pauper origins didn’t matter to her.

Rapunzel- Wanted celebrate to her birthday by not being imprisoned for once, nothing to do with a man. In fact when a man broke into her home she swiftly knocked him out and tied him up. That man ended up loving her so much he was willing to die for her and her passionate love brought him back to life.

Snow White- Was a young girl being chased around by crazy old lady who was angry that she was pretty. Ended up negotiating her safety with some dwarves by offering her services as a cook and housekeeper in exchange for room and board. Was only “waiting“ for a man in that she was literally unconscious after being poisoned by a witch and a kiss was the only thing they could save her.

Mulan- Are you fucking serious? What about her story is her waiting for a man to save her? She literally saved her father, her love interest, and then her whole damn country. You could not have watched two seconds of that film and come away thinking she was waiting for man to save her.

Aurora- She was a 16-year-old girl forced to live in seclusion her whole life. Sue her for daydreaming a bit about romance. She still showed kindness to animals and loved her adoptive caregivers and was fairly content with her life. Definitely not pining away for a man every second.

Cinderella- Cinderella probably gets the the worst of being dragged through the mud by Edgy™ feminists trying to make a point. Literally she never asked for a prince to save her. She didn’t even really complain much about being forced into slavery by her evil family. She just wanted one damn night off and meeting the prince was ancillary. And in fact the person who first shows her kindness and empowers her to achieve her goals is another woman.

Pocahontas- Again now you’re just making shit up. She was not waiting for prince, in fact she was bored at the prospect of living an ordinary home life and disinterested in marrying the handsome warrior her father had set up for her. She ends up striking up a friendship with someone her entire tribe hates and distrusts, up to and including saving HIM from being murdered.

Tiana- You are not ABOUT to do my girl Tiana dirty like this. She worked her ass off to achieve her dream of being an independent restaurant owner, something practically unheard of for a young black woman in the 20s. Romance was the absolute LAST thing on her mind and again, her actions were fundamental in saving the life of the prince.

Belle- Again, she wasn’t interested in the big strong handsome man that everyone was saying she should be interested in. Because she saw past looks and recognized that he was a sexist and generally unpleasant person. It was her willingness to see past the exterior that saved Prince Adam.

Ariel- She wanted to be a human before she knew about Eric. She saved him from drowning. She defied her father the KING in a fight for her own independence. But sure she was waiting around for man.

Merida- Merida didn’t even have a love interest and the entire film was built around a rejection of that premise. This one is barely worth the time to acknowledge.

Me: 

It wraps all around our house through the rooms and under the trees and it’s wonderful.

Every year she hides the Christmas Vampire

This started when I was a very small got child and spread to all of my friends, including my best friend from elementary school who I just so happened to grow up and marry. Now that we have grown up and moved nearly 600 miles away we still always go home for a week at Christmas for multiple reasons, including the Christmas Vampire.

Needless to say we still partake and things have gotten heated.

Stay tuned for the epic conclusion and to see my husband and father in Lin-Manuel Miranda’s sooty costume when I find the Christmas Vampire First!
