oooooo

but she doesn't deserve Marius, she's too good for him

You could always kill Marius off

hmmmmmmmmm true

or!!! Jean Valjean adopts Elizabeth Lavenza and Victor Frankenstein is his bio son and I replace Marius with Henry??

ooooooo thoughts?

Yes

sdkfjdgbjd I,,,,, really like that idea. more and more. plus it weaves it all together super well

oh my god replacing all the melodramatic scenes between Cosette and Marius with Victor, the Sheltered Son, and Henry, the Lovesick Revolutionary

OH MY GOD ICE YOU DON'T HAVE TO KILL ME

except Eponine doesn't fall in love with Henry bc she's a lesbian and they are Gay Best Friends and?? maybe?? she falls in love with Elizabeth instead???

EPONINE AND ELIZABETH YESSSS

Yessssssssssss

And Enjolras is 100% the (bastard?) Son of a noble yet he still hates the Nobility bc he's That Bitch lmao

so. I hate to do this to y'all, but. I don't think I can write this retelling this NaNo. Mainly because I don't have enough prep time left and I only have nebulous character ideas. I can't write without solid characters, and I don't have time to prep all of the characters I would need to. I'll keep this brewing in my head, and maybe it'll be ready when Camp Nano rolls around, but for this Nano I think I'm going to write something different. Sorry about that

Nah it's fine, good luck with your actual NaNo project!!

Alright! Thanks! It's probably gonna be fantasy because that's my go-to lmao
