considering pre-canon for tushanshu

Oi--'ey there, missus, whatcha draggin' me out for, eh? Lemme go back to bein' the mayor of Saint Michele, I've got thin's to do!

An' normally I ain't given much to settin' thin's up but everyone relies on good ol' Gavroche to do his work, an' that's what I'm gonna do! No one's smarter than the pups, miss, not when it comes to who's who and what's what.

I don't need no turtle, I already got an elephant!

I assure you, the turtle is much larger than an elephant, gamin.

But my elephant? The Bastille Elephant?

Much larger than the Bastille Elephant. It is larger than Paris, even.

[ You're filling Gavroche's head with wonderful thoughts, Prouvaire. ]

Bigger than France?! There's no turtle big as that.

Perhaps not quite that large, but certainly bigger than the city. And at night, the shell glows.

[He's a poet. It's kind of his job]

What's an 'elephant'? And aren't you too young to be a mayor?

An' Elephant! Tiens, it's huge and it's home.

You're never too young to be mayor, you just gotta be someone the people follow. An' everyone follows Gavroche, because Gavroche is free!

I thought the mayor was elected, and everyone followed them because the Capitol told them to.

Paris is the capitol of the country, but not of the people. It's in our hearts, right here. [ Taptaptap. ] An' I'm the mayor 'cause I knows best an' people follow me.

...What's 'Paris'?

This is so freaking adorable asdfg

A lad like you, the mayor?

[Jack laughs heartily. He likes this kid.]

Daresay you'd be a sight cleverer than some of the politicians I've had the ill fortune to come by.

Hello, Inspector, I'm sure I 'ave. Good evenin', you liar.

Beg your pardon? I'm no inspector, boy.

[HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. HE'S AN ENGLISHMAN. HELP.]

Tiens, that's right, you're a military man! I musta forgot with all the lyin' you do.

I may not be always within God's graces but I will be right damned if I am to be called a liar. And I am not quite a lobster, neither! Have you no recognition for the uniforms of His Majesty's Navy?

Who's givin' you a turtle, Gavroche? It won't lead to no good, that it won't. You might be smart, I won't deny that, little brother, but these places will 'ave you fair beat soon.

Hah! I will beat them back with the strength of a million men! [ Ah, to be an unstoppable little kid. ]

You should come to the turtle, too. There's a bunch of les amis there, we can beat 'em together!

[Eponine bursts into laughter]

You ain't nuffin' if you ain't bold, Gavroche. I would like to see you beatin' 'em all, especially if it brings in an 'appier world.

[She shuts up when she hears of the Amis though]

The students? They are there? Is...

[She stops, thinking carefully. She wants to make it sound casual, to not betray her lust for a certain Baron]

Bet you don't know all the students there. Bet you an apple that you don't know if... If Marius is there.

[ ah-ah-ah. Not so fast. Gravroche outstretches his hand, eyebrows raised. Apple first, information after. ]

I do know.

[Damnit. She'd hoped Gavroche wouldn't ask... Reluctantly, she pulls out a slightly old, slightly bruised apple]

You better tell me. This were my dinner today!

You have an elephant?

Well, I live in it.

How can you live in an elephant?

It ain't a real elephant, it's the elephant of the Bastille!
