Summary
Grantaire had always appreciated how much one could do without doing anything. It was an art he had trained at for many years of his life, and one he would consider himself quite skilled at. He practiced it to the best of his ability whenever the opportunity arose. Those who became angry with him for his perceived action or inaction never seemed to understand the duality. Art was not for everyone, this Grantaire knew, and he was happy to be the sole appreciator. Particularly when it led him to situations such as these, with the roof and chimneys of the manor house just barely beginning to make themselves visible.
Grantaire is commissioned to do a project in a decaying manor house in the French countryside. Fleeing the bindings he feels his family has placed on him, he discovers another form such bindings can take. A very vaguely Gothic au

Summary
Matt did adjust, albeit slowly. His heightened senses weren’t gone, he was taking in just as much data as usual, but none of it matched the patterns he had grown used to understanding and using. The Stick that lived in the back of Matt’s mind mocked him viscously for even admitting it, but Matt had lived in New York his entire life. He’d never really left the city, and in truth, he’d rarely left the neighborhood of Hell’s Kitchen. It made sense that some of Matt’s skill at handling his sensory intake was dependent on environmental familiarity. Everyone was better at navigating spaces they were used to better than new ones. Matt just hadn’t thought the effect on his experience would be quite as dramatic.
Foggy gets abducted and taken out of Hell's Kitchen. Matt and Karen do their best to bring him back.

Summary
“We are all struggling.” Combeferre said. “Joining together is one of the only ways that small papers such as ours have been able to survive.”
“We should not compromise on our ideology for sales.” Enjolras said, still defiant. He knew the facts as well as Combeferre did, but that did not mean he had to make the same choice they had.
“It would not be a compromise of ideology, only methodology,” Combeferre reasoned. His voice grew firmer, unyielding to Enjolras’s stubbornness. “It is the best option available to us, and we could do worse than including popular fiction as it is, indeed, popular.” Courfeyrac smothered a small laugh, ignoring Enjolras’s responding glare.
“That we could.” He said.

Summary
"It came as less of a surprise to Grantaire than it might have had seven years ago when he was asked to take his brother to London. There was purpose to it, of course, he was not simply taking his brother on holiday though he had certainly requested doing so before. It was in order to have him kitted out for his beginning of school, purchasing a uniform and books and all that. Still, as banal a task as this still would not have reached Grantaire’s most distant imaginations, if it had been something he would have ever had the opportunity to imagine."

Summary
“It is of no worry.” There was absolutely no sign of dishevelment or displeasure in any aspect of his presentation, but Grantaire could still sense that they were an unexpected presence. They would not be turned away, even the most prideful of city dwellers would see that as the social suicide it was. One scorned family in a town of this size and you have scorned them all, condemned on the tongues of wives and consequently in the eyes of all in their society. The man smiled, and Grantaire could read all of this in the expression. “It has been so long since we had come back to our house here, my wife spoke often of how she missed its charm.”
“I am sure you will find it wonderfully unchanged in its charm, sir. The years of your absence has had little impact on our good community.” Grantaire said. He could hear his father’s sigh.
The return of the Enjolras family to their long abandoned summer home leads to an unexpected connection between two ill-behaved heirs. A Regency Era AU

Summary
The shoes that did appear were scuffed, and soon followed by a pair of quickly descending legs. His neighbor moved with great haste, as was the source of the loud noises. The person’s face soon followed, though it was not facing Enjolras in any form of greeting and therefore alleviated his need to make polite conversation. Enjolras would have gladly let the man pass without word had the recognizable profile not startled sound from him.
“Grantaire?” He said, surprise perhaps making his voice too loud for the small space. It caught him in his quick descent, causing his foot to slip and nearly send himself to the bottom much faster than intended. Grantaire’s confusion was evident as he righted himself.
“Apollo?” He responded, removing his cap as if Enjolras were a schoolmaster likely to chastise him for it. His mood soured ever so slightly at the moniker. “Whatever has brought you here?”
Enjolras is perfectly content in his isolation outside of Amis meetings, but his peace is disrupted when he discovers that Grantaire lives only a floor above him.

Summary
Grantaire’s life had been in an endless grey monochrome for some years now. He could recall, when first asking for this job, the warnings of what could drive a man mad out on these cliffs. He’d been warned about the isolation, the sounds, the stories. Yet none had mentioned how the color leached out of the world the longer he stayed. His bed sheet had been green, once upon a time. The nights it spent in the salt and dampness, never again knowing what it was to be clean or dry, robbed the color from its folds as well. Now it was a faded grey like all the rest, save when the sky cleared and turned the horizon a watery blue.

Summary
It was just one of those things. A confusing quirk. An unanswered question. An unsolved mystery worthy of its own podcast episode. Something that past the initial hitch, no one acknowledged. It was that. A Thing. Grantaire simply had to be content never knowing why on earth all these grown adults in the 21st century couldn’t refer to each other by their first names.
