Ah God, those executions. [Combeferre, for his part, is more
angered by them, still, than anything else, so he does understand Jehan's
points, and the fact they weigh heavy on his friend.] those things
were wrong. They were SO incredibly wrong. Hard not to be ill, in thinking
of them. So, they've caused you to question joining us at the barricades,
or was that there before? I...do not like the fact I chose to be there
myself, against some of my own objections. At the time, well. There is so
much that I would do for Enjolras, even today and now, but there is no
shame that you had doubt about it Jehan, and no shame now that you realize
you should not have come....Some sort of an awareness, perhaps,and it
sounds terrible to bear. I am sorry for that,but...
[And here, Combeferre is brushing some hair out of Jehan's face, not
bothering to ask if he can make the contact, simply doing so.] I
suppose, even now, it may be better that you know yourself again. I cannot
imagine that it will come as any comfort. As for what we did there, and
your fighting with us...
[What can one say to something like this, really? It is
so...Combeferre is not sure he has words, but he certainly wishes that he
did just now.]
...Did you feel that at the time? Or has it come after? Because I think
the reasoning behind each changes, really, and the reparation, with what
happened then.
