    Summary

    Grantaire does not resent the revolution; rather, he resents the way it has wrapped its delicate fingers around his neck, pressing down into his throat saying, see what happens when you try to escape. He resents the way something he does not hold a single shred of belief in is so closely intertwined with someone he believes in beyond a shadow of a doubt, and of course he had to go and fall in love with the one person who will never have him.

    Here is a fact: Staring down the barrels of twelve guns, at the end of everything, Enjolras is poised to become a martyr.

    Alternatively: The final night and final morning in the lives of a cynic and a visionary, and the last of stolen glances and words left unsaid. You know how this ends—don't you dare look away.
