    Summary

    Alternatively titled, Grantaire and the parable of the toad.

    But the toad did not speak, and in fact did not move, still crouched against the stone.

    Grantaire gaped at the small creature, who didn’t seem at all concerned that it had somehow spoken, and he shook his head slowly. “Too much wine,” he muttered. “Joly warned me this might happen one day, but I must confess, I did not believe that a wine dream would manifest as—”

    He waved a vague hand at the toad, which just stared back at him, unimpressed.

    Summary

    Enjolras has spent pretty much the entire bus ride to the Musain trying to predict how this will go, but the thing that surprises him isn't that Combeferre isn't the first to notice, or that Joly doesn't start spouting something about infant mortality rates and immediately demand that everybody bathe in Purell. No, what startles Enjolras the most is that he manages approximately half a step through the door into the back room where they all meet before Grantaire rattles his glass down on the table in the back that he's taken for his own and drawls, "Is there something you forgot to tell us, Apollo?"

    That silences the room, predictably enough. Everyone breaks off their conversations and swivels to stare at him. At him, and at the baby carrier that he's got hooked over one arm.

    Summary

    “—But, uh, as Courfeyrac’s best friend—” Combeferre arched an eyebrow and Marius hastily amended, “I mean, uh, as one of Courfeyrac’s best friends, I feel like I have an obligation to inquire after your motives.”

    Combeferre took a sip of his coffee before asking, “You know I have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about, right?”

    “Why haven’t you asked him to marry you?”
