That might be the most ridiculous thing you've said yet

[justtolove]

Why else won't you take a break?

[abaisse]

Because there's actual, lasting change that can be made, and through consistent hard work I can bring it about. People's lives can be changed for the better.

[justtolove]

You're not helping anyone by working yourself to an early grave!

[abaisse]

And if that's what I was doing, I'd agree with you.





[But he's 100% not doing that so it's fine.]

[justtolove]

When was the last time you did something that wasn't work?

[abaisse]

Right now. This conversation.

[justtolove]

Before this! When was the last time you just...hung out with your friends.

[abaisse]

Yesterday.

[justtolove]

You mean when they were making "sweet music" and you were ignoring them?

[abaisse]

When they'd finished it, of course. We ate together.

[justtolove]

Did you talk about your work over dinner?

[abaisse]

Not exclusively.

[justtolove]

You see?! You don't even know what fun IS!

[abaisse]

I'm not sure how you drew that conclusion after hearing about my dinner plans last night.

[justtolove]

Wow. WOW!
You know who you remind me of? My father. He never did anything but work and lecture. Next you'll be saying Montmartre is a den of sin.

[abaisse]

You know that I dont't care what the people of Monmartre do with their lives.

[justtolove]

Would you ever spend your time there? Come to my friend's place for dinner?

[abaisse]

Don't equate my passion with disdain for people who are shunned by most society. That's exactly the kind of prejudice I'm attempting to fight against.

I have been to Monmartre. I will go there again.

[justtolove]

Then come back! Toulouse is making one of his amazing dinners tonight, you should join us!

[abaisse]

I'll have to take a raincheck.

[justtolove]

What could be more pressing than bringing your message to the very people you're fighting for?

[abaisse]

Dinner when a guest isn't the time for bringing a message.


[Here you see the influence of his friends who have had to impress this point on Enjolras very strongly.]

[justtolove]

Now you're just making excuses! My friends would love to hear all about it!

[ But good luck getting the floor for more than 3 words at a time. ]

[abaisse]

If you're certain.
