...Maybe if you imagined him as Jason it would work better? (Probably not, because anyone who thinks Enjolras isn't the MOST GORGEOUS FEMININE BLOND-HAIRED BLUE-EYE BADASS ANGEL EVER clearly hasn't read the Brick and Hugo's descriptions of him and will thus not have a complete grasp of his character.)

I'm rather attached to him. I try to keep him intact, no matter where we dump him and despite my penchant for trying to break the things I love (damn unbreakable symbols *grumble grumble*). Poor characterization is the scourge of fanfic everywhere, though, you are very right. And is even more disconcerting in LM fandom, where you have well-written stories with extremely poor characterization. My last fandom was a (surprisingly deep) children's show from Japan. Usually poor characterization went with poor literacy. This good literacy with poor characterization thing still confuses me.
