like??????¿¿¿¿when the first few notes of Les Mis start to play and…..?? Ur. Heart. Stops. !!!!! And ur CHEST FEELS WARM AND LIGHT and tears ARE THERE!! And you’re like HOLY GOSH DARM DAMN!!!!!!! I am. Home. I AM HOME. i am home.

#talk to me about what makes you cry in les mis and let me cry with u (OP)

Fantine when she’s angry and trying to fight and hang on! It really varies by performer, but geez a good fierce Fantine can break my heart ten times in the factory scene.

(Also, obviously, the heartbreaking emotional performance of the candlesticks. It’s a tough role, but a good performer can steal the whole show right there.)

They will come one and all, they will come when we call!
– everything after this point is just Ugly Crying

oh christ they will come when we call just plunges me into despair lmao.. sometimes just thinking about the bishop being so nice makes me a little tearful. wtf.
tell cosette i love her and i’ll see her when i wake – instant tears.
i will stay with you til you are sleeping. also tears. she’s not going to sleep marius. she’s dying. i am so sad. 
the moment. the. you know the one. we all know the one.
the turning song without fail gets me choked up lol. like even if i’ve been fine through the rest of it.. someone used to cradle them/and kiss them when they cried is guaranteed ugly crying.
then honestly? to love another person is to see the face of god. the whole rest of the epilogue. i just weep my way through it. it’s awful. this whole thing is awful oh my god why do we do this to ourselves

“He told me that I have a soul, how does he know?” is always a sure way to break me.

Also, “our little lives don’t count at all!” and I’m kind of surprised I haven’t seen people talking about this line more because I feel like it is a really big deal? That is an intense opinion, and I know Enjolras is Mr. Intense, but like. Life has to count, otherwise what are you fighting for. I dunno, I think I read too much into it, but it always feels to me like an offhand comment that actually says so much more, and it hurts my whole heart.

And then of course, Javert’s Suicide, because it is the most heart-wrenching thing in the whole entire world to me.

our little lives don’t count at all! actually really gets to me too now you mention it oh … man it says so much about enjolras as a character and the practically superhuman level of his devotion to the cause and how he may come across as self-righteous but really is probably the complete opposite, actually, he’s probably about as selfless as it gets & seems to treat himself as a vessel more than a person .. okay you thought you read too much into this ? what am i doing i need to stop derailing this post lma o

thank you all for your tears

but the correct answer was The Candlestick’s performance so ten sadness points to @pilferingapples
