what they do to impress you

A/N: this is what they did to impress you BEFORE courting

Enjolras:
- his hair, more specifically perfecting his curls
- one time you complimented his curls and ever since then, he had always made sure that they looked their best
- "sorry Enjolras I don't- oh hey there's y/n!
Y/n!"
- his eyes widen and he pushes everyone out of the way
- "MADAME, I NEED A MIRROR"

Grantaire:
- draw
- he always hid the talent, feeling that it was irrelevant, that is until he dropped his notebook in front of you and you saw his art
- "wow! these are amazing!"
- "oh... thank you" he blushed A LOT
- ever since then, he had been drawing you from across the room
- he has five completed sketches of you. There is you reading, giving Gavroche a cupcake, watching the sunset, wrapping Enjolras' injury and you hugging a poor old woman after giving her your shawl

Courfeyrac:
- dress
- Courfeyrac would always dress more formally if he knew that you would be seeing him that day
- he would always try to enunciate it and show that he is a fancy man
- "bonjour mademoiselle! it is currently *pulls out expensive pocket watch and holds it out in front of him and in front of your face* nine in the morning!"

Jehan:
- take charge
- only when you were looking he would immediately start acting like a parent towards all the boys
- "okay look this way look this way look this- she's looking! Gavroche! How many times have I told you that you can't have wine?!"
- "uhm never"
- "shut up and go with it"

Combferre:
- dance
- he learned how to dance from Courfeyrac just for the purpose of being able to dance with you whenever Jehan played his violin

Marius:
- ride a horse
- he learned how to ride a horse for the purpose of taking you wherever you may need to go
- also so that you can wrap your arms around him from behind, resulting in his blushing like crazy
- this skill came in handy for the revolution which was a plus
