Summary
Combeferre started his lesson with life:
“Anh, pronounced Ankh, is the word for life."
It felt more poignant to him, in the wake of the July Revolution. He had tried to decipher and dissect the Revolution. All he had found was an uneasiness that lingered heavily in the air, as well as blood splatters. The birth pangs had resulted in a stillbirth.In 1831, Combeferre and Prouvaire discuss July Revolution, hieroglyphs, religion and ghosts, as Combeferre comes to terms with the fact that when it comes to Revolution, while he is as committed to the ideals and the means to achieve them as his friends, he still wants to keep his divided heart.

Summary
Joly didn’t notice the man who sat down at his table one day until the man said cheerfully, “You too, huh?”
Joly blinked over the top of his anatomy text book. “Excuse me?” he said, more startled than anything.
The man, who was almost entirely bald, winked at him. “You’re excused,” he said with a grin. “But I was referring to your reason for frequenting this fine establishment.”
“It’s close to the hospital, and I’m a med student—”
The man waved a dismissive hand. “Sure, sure, and it’s just around the corner from the law library. But don’t pretend like you’re not also here so that you can ooh and ahh over the lovely barista, Musichetta.”
--
Or, the story of how Joly went to the coffeeshop for coffee, stayed for the barista, and found more than he could've ever hoped for along the way.

Summary
“What mission from the lyrical muse has you occupied today?” Laigle asked, stretching out lazily for Musichetta and Joly’s benefit. No one did a languid stretch half so well as Joly’s Eagle of Meaux. “Daring exploits on the high seas? Highwaymen? Lost princesses of spurious European nations?”
Musichetta responded with a darling pout. “Nothing so exciting or useful. No, today’s mission is a missive to my matriarch, concerning many misspent moments.”
“Misleading?”
“Maybe.” Musichetta’s pout turned into a wicked grin.
Joly is determined at all costs to have a cozy day in bed.
