    Summary

    Valjean took a shaky breath as a flush crept over his cheeks. “Why?” he asked.

    Javert very nearly laughed. Such a simple word. A simple question. A lifetime worth of justifications.

    “The love of the chase,” Javert said, and then he wrenched his neck forward so he could claim Valjean’s mouth roughly.

    Summary

    Post-Apocalypse, Aziraphale has decided it's long past time for him to do some things with his demon that they've denied themselves for millennia. And it's not that Crowley is opposed; he's just well-practiced at being afraid, and it's hard to give up the habit of a lifetime.

    So Aziraphale is simply going to have to convince him. Quite thoroughly.

    Summary

    Javert focuses on sketching another figure: just the outlines, the silhouette: how Madeleine would look like without his waistcoat? without his shirt and cravat? would his arms be as muscled as he remembers Valjean’s to be, the planes of his chest and stomach as hard?

    Summary

    It has nearly been a year since that night on the bridge where Javert had stepped down and allowed Valjean to teach him friendship and mercy. In the months between, he has settled into Valjean's spare bedroom and has come to appreciate and even crave the company of the man he spent decades chasing. He is content and wants for nothing save for there to be less paperwork crossing his desk and less of Cosette's husband in his presence.

    Until, quite by accident, he sees Valjean as a flesh-and-blood man for the first time with needs like any other; needs that Javert finds himself echoing, reciprocating, and craving even more of. A man does not crave even the barest touch of his mere friend, so what is this emotion that fills Javert's chest until Valjean's fingers are wiping tears from his face?
