( grantaire, he despairs of you. and for the life of him, enjolras can't understand why the man continues to stick around. if he dislikes their causes so much, if he thinks that this is all a waste of time, then why come to every meeting? why show up at inconvenient times, albeit drunk off his ass, and go out of his way to join them? even if the purpose was to goad them, it's too much effort put into that, even for grantaire.

he doesn't understand this person at all. because they are opposites, and he will never understand him. )

Do you know that? Have you ever tried? You close your eyes and pretend that there's nothing wrong in the world. You make a joke out of life and call it art. I would rather fail than give up, even if we don't end up solving world hunger.

Why do you show up at all?
