Summary
André disparait souvent ces dernières nuits, un mystérieux bandit dévalise la noblesse des environs, et Oscar garde comme d'habitude ses troubles pour elle-même au lieu de se confier à son ami de toujours.
D'ailleurs, lui aussi lui cache quelque chose d'inavouable, n'est-ce pas ? Mais quoi ? Une femme ? Des activités illicites ? ou alors... aurait-il certaines... inclinations ? Et elle...? Où en est-elle ? Qu'est-elle ? Est-elle contre-nature ? Une erreur ? Un monstre ? Notre Oscar est un peu perdue, et notre André, guère mieux, ne sait où est sa place dans cette époque en plein bouleversement et cet ordre des choses en train de changer peu à peu...- Words:

Summary
AU, 1794. Enjolras and Combeferre, trying to navigate the turmoil of the French Revolution side-by-side, find themselves struggling to reconcile their views of the Terror. Any misstep in such a time could be fatal, and each feels the strain of conflicting ideas on their friendship.
"I do not want you to become one of those innocents who, despite the best efforts of the terror to remain just, are considered counterrevolutionary and pay the price.”Combeferre met his eyes. “Yet if my death is one of those which would bring about the future of the Republic?”

Before Enjolras' mother is the Republic, before Combeferre can prefer a Condorcet or a Robespierre, before de Courfeyrac drops his particle...in fact, before the taking of the Bastille.
(But not before the first partitioning of Poland. And Grantaire still doesn't do personal boundaries very well.)
For the #Les Mis Across History festival: actual French Revolution.
