[ He is stuck, is the best explanation he has been able to come up with. It is something like a rope that binds him to this house, the house he lived in, the house he died in; should he try to leave, he is tugged back.
It angers him when he has already been so furious. If he is forced to stay in this house then it must be his house, even decades later as realtor after realtor tours and sells it. He has driven all buyers away within a week; more often he can send them off while they are still considering with leaky faucets, moaning pipes, and strange smells.
This one, though, has managed for a month. Grantaire has tried his usual tricks, and he does not seem to mind the clanging pipes and only takes out his trash when the smell of rotting flesh wafts through his home. He only shows irritation when his belongings start to go missing one by one, but its frequency only causes him to--buy magnets.
Grantaire does not understand, but the words on the refrigerator now read: and you will see-k death/to release you, in va-I-n/you will live in you-r pain. Some improvisation had to be made, but the point comes across in the end.
He is sleeping now (the realtor called him Enjolras), so Grantaire takes his chance. The curtains in his bedroom fly open to reveal the rising sun and his covers are torn off to sit on the floor. He cannot harm Enjolras; his control ends with the objects of the house, like they are connected. ]
