people who refuse to believe ralph was awful piss me off

PLEASE he fucking sucked just admit it

gotta admit, as a certified mostly-recovered Moral OCD Haver™ who also identifies... quite a fucking lot with Enjolras, the idea of Enjolras having moral OCD doesn't sit well with me at all. Which isn't me saying people can't have that headcanon, don't get it twisted — I just know what I acted like when it was worse vs. what I act like now, and the headspace I inhabited back then was not one I would associate with strident commitment and single-minded purpose. To me, saying Enjolras has moral OCD simply because "activist" is one of his main personality traits feels like saying that activism itself is a mental illness.

(In reality, I would go as far as to say that a person with moral OCD would not be nearly as put together while engaging in activism as Enjolras is. I TRIED being involved in activism while having unmanaged moral OCD. At one point I had an hour long breakdown because I thought wearing blue jeans in April meant I was betraying the Autistic community. It wasn't even for symbolic reasons I just didn't have any other clean pants.)

You know who I can see having moral OCD, though? And who I can see a lot of my own experiences in?

Fucking Grantaire.

Grantaire who has been involved in activist efforts for a long time and is severely burnt out by the highly triggering environment that it is for him, who tried so hard to keep up with the unceasing demands his mind put on him in the name of being A Good Person™ but just can't do it anymore.

Grantaire who, at some point, figured out that heavy drinking was the only thing that could reliably shut up his ruminations.

Grantaire whose cynicism about the cause he fights for is a thought-stopping technique that worked a little too well but then became a compulsion in itself.

Grantaire who idolizes Enjolras — who seems to not just do well in that environment but thrive in it like a duck in water — but knows that spending too much time with him will make the bad thoughts creep back in and maybe this time he won't be able to stop them, so he sabotages any opportunity to actually get closer to the man he holds in such high esteem.

I don't know, man, I just got here. Maybe this is nothing.

"Dabi doesn’t like it, that he’s being treated like something untouchable. He’s not the untouchable one in this partnership. He’s the mud at the bottom of Hawks’ plinth, and Hawks’ determination to respect his boundaries is starting to grate on his nerves."

I rose too high, loved too hard, dared too much. I tried to grasp a star, overreached, and fell.

happy valentine’s day! have some enjolras being into grantaire’s deep loser energy against his better judgement (r saw a chocolate dispenser and got hyped but forgot his wallet and e had to shout his own impromptu valentine’s gift)

feel like enjoltaire wouldn’t be that into valentines but saw a vintage chocolate dispenser at a train museum (see below) and wanted to draw it + their outfits and the dispenser feed into a greater 1930’s european immigrants in australia au i have (i visited a bunch of museums in tasmania and was pathologically incapable of not connecting enjoltaire to the experience)
