never_shall_yield Bonjour, mes amis!
...I have no idea if I've said that right. ANYWAY. Valjean and Gavroche had an interesting back-and-forth last night, wherein Gavroche asked Valjean to find his little brothers and help them (thread can be perused here if anyone's interested). I'm totally up for it because it'll give Valjean something to focus on in his new life - plus, there's no way he'd turn down the chance to help a couple of kids. This led to OOC discussion with Lark and Gen, because obviously it impacts Marius in particular with regards his grandfather paying for these kids who weren't his, and whether Marius knew about this, etc. Plus, we'll have to god Gillenormand's (and Mlle Gillenormand's) reaction to being asked about the kids in order to find them, which I don't think should pose problems, but if anyone has one then do say so!
Anyway, I spoke to Kate while the thread was ongoing and she mentioned that in an ideal world, we could find some way to get Azelma away from Thenardier also. If you're still up for it Kate, this is potentially doable! But it does raise issues with the fact that we'd have to basically NPC a character that is still available for apping, PLUS involving Monsieur T who we did have at one time. And Maru - I know Madame is actually dead at this point in canon, but it's her family we'd be playing around with, so obviously want to get input on what you think about it.
The vague idea is that Monsieur would turn up and try to blackmail Marius as he does in canon, which obvs won't work because the truth is out re: Valjean. Or something else different entirely, depending on what would work - Valjean knows about Azelma vaguely, from seeing her as a kid and in the Gorbeau house. Marius knows about her. Javert probably does (though likely hasn't taken much notice) through knowing T as a criminal. It would need one or some of these guys to decide to help her - or a nudge from Gavroche? - and then figure out a way to do it...but obviously this is quite a big canon digression, involves godding and NPC'ing characters and needs input from people, so we're just kind of throwing it out there to see what people think/if they have ideas.
Ultimate endgame would either have the kids be in a good school, or paid a stipend (probs from Gillenormand, at least for the boys) to live on. Unless Gavroche wants to have them in London Below?
SO. Are people OK with us working something out? Maru, thoughts on Madame? I guess we'd also have to figure out whether Monsieur actually goes to America after all - I guess since Javert's AU anyway, he could arrest him and stop him, but I hadn't considered that before now - and also what Azelma's NPC'd reaction to all of this would be. Lark, Gen, did I forget anything? Probably lots.
:D?
