A little late for barricade day as I've been away, but thought it was fitting that I spotted this in the airport today

Le Gavroche
This restaurant named after our favourite fictional street urchin also had a painting of Gavroche behind the bar, esitmated to sell for £10,000 to £15,000!!
I can't find seem to find anything more about the painting itself, to try and find out how old it is or who it's by or why it's worth that much, although I'm sure I've seen a photo of it before. Who could forget him striking a pose like that!

Lotr tattoo
From the passage in the book when Sam realises Frodo isn’t dead and berates himself for not listening to his heart and believing that Frodo was alive sooner. A truly underrated moment.

Barricade Day 2022
Isn’t love something humans are suppose to make?
An enjoltaire barricade day fic featuring the Grantaire pretending to help and just playing dominos instead scene, be serious I am wild, and dying holding hands because I have no self preservation. Happy dead revolutionaries day mis fandom!
https://archiveofourown.org/works/39436500
Grantaire tries to prove to Enjolras how much he wants him by trying to help with a revolution he only halfheartedly believes in. With so little time left, for any of them, Enjolras becomes more inclined to believe Grantaire, and snatch a little happiness from the misery while he still can.

Continuing my musicals leg with my Hedwig and the angry inch tattoo by Andrew Brown @whambamtattoo at True Love Tattoos in Norwich
Hedwig is specifically based on the production with Antony Rapp as Hedwig, and the quote is from John Cameron Mitchell’s explanation of Hedwig’s gender identity as a ‘gender of one and that is accidentally so beautiful’

My favourite trope in newsies fics has gotta be when Jack and Davey are hopelessly in love and dancing around their feelings and when they finally get together everyone freaks the fuck out cos they’ve basically been watching and waiting the whole time.
Meanwhile Spot and Race have been secretly getting it on for ages and no one knows or gives a shit

Newsiestober Day 13: Rarepair
So I haven’t really had time to do anything for @newsiestober, but as day 13 is rarepairs I thought I’d draw your attention to a new series of mine on ao3 which is Racetrack/Spot/Davey, which I guess kind of counts for that theme. Two parts are up at the moment and there’s at least two more to go, so I hope you enjoy

Does anyone else ever get fully absorbed in thinking about exactly how Roger knew about Mark’s inability to hold an erection on the high holy days?
