tbh of the many reasons the whole “Enjolras finds Grantaire’s sketchbook and is Overcome by the Artistic Beauty” thing is Fake probably the realest is that Enjolras is 9000 percent That Friend who Thinks Everything Is An Anime while also not having ever seen an anime in his life 

he judges art based on a rigorous standard of “is it A Good Politics”  with occasional considerations of “Is it Of or By my friends “ and if the answer to either question is “yes” then it’s  “Very Good” and if the answer is No then it’s “nice I guess”

Grantaire  thinks this is kind of hilarious but somehow it just. Cheapens the whole experience of drawing Catbutt Christmas Cards.
