I implore you, vote for Enjolfood/R. I feel like this is all that needs to be said :

oh thank god we're finally talking about the real ships in this fandom

Cinq-Mars (1826), Alfred de Vigny ; Champavert (1833), Pétrus Borel ; Wikipedia page of François Rollinat (consulted 04/04/23) ; Madame Putiphar (1839), Pétrus Borel ; Queen Margot (1845), Alexandre Dumas ; The Knight of Maison-Rouge (1845), Alexandre Dumas ; The Companions of Jehu (1857), Alexandre Dumas ; Captain Fracasse (1862), Théophile Gautier ; Les Misérables (1862), Victor Hugo

the thing about grantaire imo is that the extent to which he's right (and he occasionally is but it's a broken clock situation for the most part) doesn't really matter. what's important is that the stuff he's saying is reflective of a deep sense of cynicism. what's important is that it for everyone who isn't enjolras (including readers), it often feels right on a deep level. that's what's so compelling about him. he represents exactly what's so difficult in mobilizing people (especially his bourgeois class) towards a cause, even when the end result is supposedly something they want: the sneaking suspicion that all our efforts are wasted and we would be better off enjoying whatever comforts we have. so isn't it so wonderful when he finally lets go of this feeling, and takes a stand for something?

Also I think the only day that makes sense to put Marius in a timeloop is the day of the Gorbeau robbery. Now that's a day for Marius to do some self reflection asdfghjkl

I imagine that Marius would figure out the exact course of action that would get everyone arrested, Javert respects him, he manages to propose to Cosette and have Valjean accept it somehow, he gets idk immediatelly taken to the palace and decorated by the king himself. Nothing, the timeloop starts again.

Meanwhile every time the poor little abused daughter of his neighbors shows up desperate for any and all help whatsoever and says 'look monsieur, I know how to read :)' he's like yeah yeah shut up you lil gremlin I have to think about how to escape this time loop
