[ Hey! Other people on the turtle! The screen blinks on and there's a ratty blonde boy. Familiar, no doubt--he's never at one place for too long, and he's constantly running around the city. It's likely you've seen him on the street. ]

S'Gavroche! Gotta question for yas. [ What a nice way to greet people. This had been on his mind, though. Since Cosette mentioned it, and even moreso due to the events on Atam. There's a few bruises and scrapes on his face, but his nose is looking a little purple, swelling. Possibly broken. He seems undeterred at this--or the fact that he's absolutely filthy. Actually, there's pretty much nothing in the house he logged in to the network on--he doesn't really use it at all. ]

Little inquiry, huh? Lil' bit. [ He rolls his shoulders, and for the first time he looks a little anxious. ] Y'know your worlds, yeah? I wanna talk to someone what lives in Earth, an' knows Paris. Gotta bit-- [ Okay, now you're repeating yourself, Gavroche. Try not to look so nervous! You're proud of who you are and what you did.

So, cautiously, the Gamin flashes a smile. ]

The--uh. Around June 6, there was a rebellion, yeah? 'Gainst the King. [ Absentmindedly, he touches his little rosette pin with the colours of the French flag. ]

We--they--overthrew 'im, right? An' did it follow through? Y'got a King in France?

[ if this were any adult, he might have said something different, but Gavroche is a kid, so his answer gives him momentary pause. ]

Because I've got nothing better to do, and because if my friends thought it worth dying for, well, I wasn't about to let them leave me alone on this wretched earth.

Then you died for a cause. Maybe not the one everyone else was fightin', but you were there 'cause you believed in your friends?

I died because I needed them, not because I believed in anyone.

[ a lie, but the point is still there. ]

[ aw kid, he would ruffle your hair if this wasn't via a screen. ]

And so I will continue at it, though you wouldn't be so lucky searching for someone who else who truly believes that, at the very least entirely.

They let me because I make them laugh, and those whom I don't make laugh think even as they scowl.
