EVERY POST-SEINE LES MIS FIC BE LIKE

This meme also works if you replace the "Javert" label with "Me" and make the caption "reading/watching Les Mis be like"

Jean Valjean sees a river and immediately begins wondering if there is a way he can help someone by throwing himself into a river because HIS JESUS-LIKE SELF-SACRIFICE IS ACTUALLY UNNECESSARY AND BULLSHIT THE MAN IS JUST SUICIDAL AND LIKE. CATHOLIC. But also I get how the story works better if Jean dies because that is the point of classism and that is what the book is about but also if you aren't religious it is a much much sadder story and fuck you Victor

This is in no way a diss to post-Seine fics - they are like, one of my favorite things, and if Jean didn't try to sacrifice himself unnecessarily, it would frankly be out-of-character. The best ones are when he learns to stop doing that as much.

JUST LET MY INSANE OLD MAN BE HAPPY HE HAS EARNED IT FUCK YOUR THEMATIC STRUCTURE MAKE THE OLD MEN KISS MAKE THEM BRUSH HANDS HOMOEROTICALLY MAKE THEM GO THROUGH SIMULTANEOUS COMPLEMENTARY JOURNEYS IN WHICH THEY BOTH LEARN ABOUT THEIR INHERENT LOVEABILITY AND SUCK EACH OTHER'S COCKS I WILL FIGHT GOD AND WEAR HIS TEETH ON A NECKLACE

Image description: a meme in three panels depicting a popular short viral video in which a little boy yells that he has a knife and then runs from his mother with a shit-eating grin while she screams "NO!!!!", except the people in the video are labeled and the captions have been changed.

In the first panel a little boy is running around an in-ground pool. He is labeled "Jean Valjean." The back of a woman's head is visible and is labeled "Javert." The woman says to the boy, "Let me see what you have!"

in the second panel, the little boy holds up a small object and says "SELF-SACRIFICE!"

in the third panel, the woman labeled Javert screams "NO!!!!" in bright red font. She is a blur as she moves to run after him. Blurry in the background, the little boy is running fast with a mischievous grin.
