    Summary

    “Wait, wait, pick a queen, R!” Joly shouted, “Double coronation!”

    Grantaire’s lips twisted as he smiled. One tooth angled out slightly from the others, it made his grin sharp.

    “Our mighty leader was born to be a queen of sorts, more Boudicca or Margaret of Anjou, but my point stands I think.” He said, and he turned to look at Enjolras.

    There was a beat of silence.

    “Grantaire,” Enjolras said, as if that covered everything.

    Summary

    “I’ll go.” He says it without brashness or deference. Just a statement.

    “Where?”

    “You want to climb the Forty,” he says, and Enjolras can’t deny it. “I’ll go with you.”

    Summary

    “The amnesiac has questions,” says Grantaire. Boyfriend grips the wheel. “Don’t worry, we’ll start with the 200 dollar Jeopardy trivia.” A semi roars past them. “What’s your name?”
    The perfect sinew and bones of his fingers relax. “Oh,” he murmurs. Just like that, defenses lowered. “Enjolras.”
    “Cool,” Grantaire says. “I’m Grantaire.”
    Something happens to Enjolras’ face which, if you zoomed in, might be considered a smile. “I know.”
    “How long have we been dating, Enjolras?”
    The almost-smile is gone. The gameshow metaphor has become too apt; someone’s lost it all. “That’s complicated.”
    Well. Grantaire should’ve known some part of this fairytale was too good to be true. He’s best friends with a streetsmart renegade and someone who wrote him a welcome-back-to-consciousness poem in godawful blue icing on an orange frosted cookie cake. There are nearly ten people who were waiting for him to wake up in a hospital room.
    Of course his inexplicable relationship with his supernova hot, socially conscientious boyfriend is ‘complicated.’

    Summary

    Grantaire can't tell you what their first date was, but he can tell you exactly when Enjolras is moving away to Paris.
    Though maybe he's being a bit negative about the situation.
