okay guys bUT: 

• courf with hearing aids. little courfeyrac, ten years old, discovering Hawkeye comics. courf basing his entire personality off of clint barton. courf not letting his disability define him. courf using sign language. courf lipreading. courf standing by as translator during enjolras’ rallies because people need to know what this man is saying, even if they can’t hear it. 
• amputee bossuet who did two tours in afgahnistan and came back without his left leg and blind from tear gas, but towing a paramedic boyfriend home to his girlfriend musichetta. (“can we keep him? please?”) they get a seeing-eye guide dog named ‘nymeria’ and she’s the sweetest golden retriever you ever did see. (joly is allergic to her, but he doesn’t care. she brings the smile back to bossuet’s face.) 
• electively mute jehan that refuses to speak, and was taught sign language by courf. agender asexual aromantic jehan that spent so many years thinking they were broken before flipping off the world and pirouetting out. 
• partially paralysed grantaire that used to be a professional ballet dancer. ‘the young misha,’ the papers called him, hailed him as the ‘young nureyev’. he got into an accident, drunk driving, and has been confined to a wheelchair for four years. he can’t stand classical music anymore. he has a drinking game called ‘take a shot every time you see someone walk’ because he’s so fucking angry that he could have had everything, and now he doesn’t even have footsteps. 
• transgender poc feuilly that has to put up with so much social stigma. he can barely hold down a job anymore, what with people finding out his name, his background, his sexuality.
