So @dotsayers And I Have This Au Called The “enjolras The Worst PTA Parent Ever” Au And It’s Just…incredible.

so @dotsayers and I have this au called the “enjolras the worst PTA parent ever” au and it’s just…incredible.

basically enjolras gets kicked off his kid’s PTA for starting too many fights with the suburban mums so forms his own renegade group of parents, carers and education-associated-adults called “La Société Mère de l'école d'ABC” (or according to grantaire “the PTA rejects”) feat:

jbm the poly parents who got in a fight with the school because they wouldn’t list all three as okay to pick up their son are the ones who initially bring up the idea of the rogue PTA

combeferre who teaches year two and disagrees with the curriculum but has had all his suggestions for change flat-out rejected

courfeyrac who teaches reception and has a deep hatred for the smarmy PTA mums so joined mostly out of spite (also partially because the cute librarian goes)

jehan who runs the community library that visits the school every week and joined because they got angry complaints from the PTA mums when they put books addressing lgbt+ themes into the library. they also possibly implied the Apology Brownies that they brought to a real PTA meeting for the parents in response were pot brownies (they weren’t, but it caused such a freak out that they got kicked out anyway)

feuilly the exhausted single dad who works like six jobs but also wants to fight for better resources for his kid

bahorel the gym teacher who’s just always down for #drama

éponine who’s always been treated like shit by the other parents because they think she’s a super young single mum. she’s not, gavroche is her brother, but that’s not the fucking point.

marius accidentally came to one of their meetings instead of the “official” PTA and was too embarrassed to quit when he realised and now he and cosette host every meeting

grantaire picks their kid up from school but enjolras is the one who comes to the meetings and does parents evening so everyone thinks enjolras is a single dad and grantaire is the babysitter until they turn up to get the kid together holding hands and they’re like “no?????? we’re married????”

At the Watchtower

Kon: So then ma says "well you're not coming back into this house until you've caught every single one of them pigs"-

Tim: [clutching his coffee-mug and listening intently] without powers?

Kon: Of course! So there I am, covered in mud, and all I want is to eat some pie and go to bed-

Tim: [nodding enthusiastically while Kon continues his story]

Clark: [looks on from a distance]

Jon: [a few seats away] Did I tell you we got a new cow on the farm?

Damian: [with interest] what did you name her?

Jon: We haven't decided yet, Kon wants to call her Dorothy, but pa and I-

Damian: [earnestly interested]

Clark: [side eyes Bruce who's sitting next to him going through reports]

Clark: Hey Bruce?

Bruce: [grunts]

Clark: did I tell you we got a new cow at the farm?

Bruce: [hums noncommitally and continues reading]

Clark: [strained] Kon wants to call her Dorothy, but I think we should call her Susie and Jon-

Bruce: [sighs exasperatedly]

Clark:

Clark: [rips the reports away from Bruce with super speed]

Bruce: What the hell?

Clark: You're such a bad friend!

Bruce: what?

Clark: why am I stuck with you when my children's bat friends are so nice?!

Bruce:

Clark: Look at Tim! He's so nice! Why can't you be like that?!

Bruce: You want me to be like Tim?

Clark: Or Damian!

Bruce: [rubbing his temples] You want me to be like Damian?

Clark: I want you to listen when I talk!

Bruce: you were talking about cows

Clark: that doesn't matter!

Bruce: It matters a little

Clark: Cows are interesting!

Bruce: Cows are the opposite of interesting.

Clark: Well, I'M interesting

Bruce:

Clark: Bruce, tell me I'm interesting.

Bruce: [gets up and starts walking away]

Clark: [shouts after him] Bruce! Tell me I'm interesting!

Bruce: [walks faster]

-a week later-

Wonder Woman: Are Batman and Superman having a fight?

Flash: yeah I think so. I don't know what about though

Martian Mindhunter: I believe Batman insulted Superman's cow

Wonder Woman: I see.

Black Canary: Sometimes I wake up at night and think about the fact that they are two of the most important members of an organization that protects the world from certain annihilation and then I can't go back to sleep

Green Lantern: [feet propped on the table, throwing almonds into the air and trying to catch them in his mouth] yeah it freaks me out too

Black Canary: [glances at Green Lantern] never leave us, Diana.

The Other Night Dear, As I Lay Sleeping I Dreamed I Held You In My Arms But When I Awoke, Dear, I Was

The other night dear, as I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms But when I awoke, dear, I was mistaken So I hung my head and I cried

unpopular opinion: I don't like jock!dean. it's too golden boy. the entire point of the winchesters is that they are not your normal everyday all American family & I feel like the jock thing reflects that too much.

Ok, so, coffeeshop AU where Enjolras is working as a barista to put himself through college and R is the annoying customer.

And everyday, when Grantaire comes in, when he’s not busy arguing with Enjolras about ideological differences, he flirts outrageously with Enjolras and any other barista in earshot, and always orders his coffee the same way:

“I like my coffee like I like my men,” he’ll say, with an enormous wink, before adding whatever relevant adjective he feels that day, be it “tall” or “dark” or “strong” or “could knock me on my ass and honestly I’d thank him for it”.

And Enjolras just rolls his eyes and gets Grantaire his usual and purposefully doesn’t comment on it, because Enjolras fits none of those qualities (except tall, but like, so’s half the male population), and it shouldn’t bother him that much but it does.

So he sulks and he complains to all of his friends who know that he’s being ridiculous (and honestly, he knows he’s being ridiculous, but that’s never stopped him in the past and it’s sure as shit not gonna stop him now) and he tries to get the annoying, cynical man out of his head.

Until one day, when he’s had a late night studying after a protest and he’s tired and on edge and finally just snaps at Grantaire: “Honestly, I’m just here to make your coffee. I don’t really care how you like your men.”

And Grantaire gets really quiet and Enjolras is about to apologize when Grantaire asks, in a kind of strange voice, “How do you like your coffee?”

“What?” Enjolras asks, confused.

“How do you like your coffee?” Grantaire repeats. “I want to buy you a coffee as an apology.”

And Enjolras just looks at him for a long moment before blurting, “I like my coffee like I like my men.”

And Grantaire raises an eyebrow at him. “Oh, really?” he asks.

“Yeah,” Enjolras says, and before he can stop himself, adds, “You know, short, dark and bitter.”

For a moment, he thinks Grantaire doesn’t get it, but then Grantaire grins, a wide grin that crinkles his eyes and makes Enjolras grin almost as a reflex in response.

(And when he hands Grantaire his coffee a little later, when his fingers brush Grantaire’s, when Grantaire stands on his tiptoes to kiss Enjolras quickly on the cheek before leaving with a “See you tomorrow!” tossed over his shoulder, Enjolras is pretty sure his grin is going to last all day.)
