I had a feeling before clicking it was going to be Arm Joe.

Best video game tie-in ever!

God bless Japan

You... do know that les mis was a book first, right? Right?

Okay, I'll bite: what pairings?

(Me, I'm hoping that when the movie comes out and the shit hits the fan(dom), the tragic undersupply of decent Valjean/Javert fic will finally come to an end.)

But...I mean, musical characters talk, don't they? If they don't, it's an opera. Y/n?

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 12:15 pm (UTC)(link)
but there's no rhyming!

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 12:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Not necessarily, Les Mis is a libretto (you can find the entire thing (OLC version, some words got changed overtime) here: http://www.theatre-musical.com/lesmis/libretto.html), there is no talking during the show.

n

Some musicals are sung through; Les Mis is one of them.

I think the musical vs. opera distinction has more to do with the musical style, though I'm no expert.

I'm not a huge musical fan, but I have found that I have a tough time writing fic when I feel like the style of the original doesn't translate well.

But musicals do have dialogue/non musical scenes, and Les Mis is based on a book, so maybe it could work?

I have this same problem, but with The Phantom of the Opera. Most of the cast has spoken dialogue that could be counted on all ten fingers, and if memory serves, the Phantom has no spoken lines in the original show. Seeing them talk in fanfics, no matter what context, just feels jarring.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-14 10:49 am (UTC)(link)
But Phantom of the Opera is also based on a book. Granted, it's mostly ignored by fangirls because while it's still easy to fangirl about an insane guy who at least has half of an attractive face, it's a bit harder to fangirl about some insane guy who has a skullface instead of a real face...
