There are a number of kitchens to be found in the mansion, as most people know. Enjolras is in one of them, flour speckling his flannel shirt and black jeans. There is a recipe book open on the counter near him, open to a page on baguettes. The young man in question is currently absorbed in kneading some dough: once again, something new to concentrate on. (Yes, he had known that Combeferre and Courfeyrac were only here for a day, but that does not really make it much better.) So, inspired by Laertes -- and, perhaps, the underwhelming boeuf bourguignon the mansion had provided the other day -- he is attempting a French classic. Perhaps a homemade baguette will taste better than mansion-provided food.

"What, all invective?" Laertes teases.

"I'd like to hear it, shouldst thou ever have cause again," says Laertes, letting go. He strolls over to the type cases and starts idly laying out letters--Library and Kitchen, backwards upon the tray.

Laertes looks up from the letters."For want of speaking? Or is there an accord between you?"

"That's well. A man with such joy in his heart ought not to be sunken in mourning."

"Hast thou thought any more on what he told thee of his feelings?" Laertes asks.

"Good. Then thine affection springs from true enjoyment of his company, and not a sense of obligation to match his feelings with thine own."

"Then I'll stop mentioning it, myself, if I do more to keep it before thine eyes than he does."

Then Laertes lets himself push just a little. "What does it spark in thee, to imagine him kissing thee as I do? Joy? Dread?"

"Then perhaps--" but whatever he was going to say, he's cut off by the clamorous ring of the chicken timer. "Ah, that will be the bread."

"Ah, it's a bread with two rises?" asks Laertes. He scoops up the timer from where he'd placed it on the printing plate and starts heading back toward the kitchen.

"Before I came here, I lacked a proper appreciation for the work required of bread," Laertes laughs. "Yeast alone hath a fickle temper; either it refuses the rise entirely, or it runs wild if given the least free reign."

"Does it require kneading, before the second rise?" Laertes goes to take a glance at the recipe book.

"We can spend the next rise looking for instructions for working a press," Laertes offers. "Or in any other employment thou wouldst care to practice; I have no other object." He has completely forgotten about the nutbread recipe in his pocket.
