    Summary

    Inspector Javert didn’t dislike Christmas, but he wasn’t particularly fond of it either. He smiled at the carollers when they came to his door, gave money to the charities that provided gifts for the more unfortunate of Paris, and even hung up a wreath on his door. He bought his dog a pre-wrapped bone from the store and allowed himself an expensive cut of meat for Christmas dinner but beyond that, Christmas usually passed without much concern for the inspector.

    Summary

    He closed his eyes against the nauseating vertigo, only to snap them open when a calloused hand framed his forehead. It felt ice cold.
    “Oh dear God above,” Madeleine muttered under his breath. “Why didn’t you tell me it was this bad?”

     

    When Javert faints in front of Monseur le Maire while asking to be dismissed for denouncing him, Madeleine takes Javert into his house and his care without realizing how serious the man's condition really is. As Javert sinks ever deeper into delirium, both of them are forced to be honest about the long-buried feelings that now resurface from the depths of Toulon. Valjean must piece by piece let go of his comfortable life as Madeleine in a desperate attempt to save his guard... and the man in Arras, who faces the death penalty in Valjean's name.

    How much is Valjean willing to sacrifice to save innocent lives? Can Javert stay alive long enough to save Valjean in return? In the end, do any of them even have a future?

    Summary

    “A body is a body, no matter how many layers of cloth between my skin and it. Taking hold of the fabric they wear is one thing, but to feel the shape of their bones and flesh beneath it…” He suppressed a shiver. “That I will only tolerate when I am the one in control of when, where and how long the touch lasts.”

     

    Fill for this prompt: Valvert pairing where one or both are asexual. Javert has a nightmare after the barricades and Valjean comforts him. Would love a fic with sharing a bed, awkward old virgin cuddling and comfort. Plus if it focuses on Javert being distrustful or even somewhat fearful of the human touch and gradually becoming able to enjoy it.

    Summary

    This was very, very wrong on a great many levels. Valjean remembered having seen men in this state back in the bagne. As he recalled, some had recovered from their insanity as time went by. Others never had. It made him shudder to think what could have caused a determined mind like Javert’s to snap like this.

    Valjean barely manages to save Javert from damnation, but soon finds that 'salvation' is relative. Lost in his broken mind, Javert struggles to come to terms with the dilemma that drove him to suicide, while Valjean faces the inevitability of losing Cosette and what that will do to his world. All they have is each other, but only time will tell if that will be enough.

    Summary

    When Jean Valjean takes over management of the Opéra Populaire from Monsieur Lefévre, he knows it's only a matter of time before Javert catches up with him. When he does, Valjean heads for cover in the underbelly of the opéra house, pursued by the relentless Inspector. Unbeknownst to either of them, their presence down below does not go unnoticed, and the opéra's own deus ex machina, the man who calls himself the Phantom, treats them as he does all intruders to his realm. Trapping them in a storage room, Valjean and Javert struggle against the force seeking amusement through their pain, as well as their own volatile relationship.

    Summary

    It is 1832, and in the aftermath of the failed uprising, Inspector Javert is about to commit suicide when he is rescued by Jean Valjean, the man he has wronged. While Javert heals and tries to find his place in a world where doubt and guilt have taken the place of everything he once believed in, he is plagued by his developing feelings for Valjean, and distracted by a series of murders. In the course of his investigations, the search for the man behind the crime soon becomes personal when it seems that Valjean and his family are threatened by the mysterious villain as well. Despite the distrust of his superiors, Javert might be the only one who can solve this crime, while at the same time Valjean seems to be just as much in need of a savior as Javert was.

    Summary

    Kinkmeme prompt: "Valjean/Javert, erotica. In which Javert confiscates illegal possession of pornography only to find it's our favorite kind of homoerotica. He ends up keeping it. He takes pleasure from it and secretly fantasizes Madeleine and himself in the place of the main characters. Then Madeleine discovers his dirty book and makes Javert read the filthy passages aloud while the mayor does those very things to him in real life. For repentance. Why else?"

    also known as that one time I finished a chapter of a wip, thought of a little plotbunny then dropped it, saw this prompt, and then spent 17 consecutive hours laughing hysterically to myself as i wrote 5k words of a weirdly fluffy thing of possibly less cracky than expected porn

    Summary

    Some cases never end and some people never stop until everyone on their list is dead. And maybe it is worth the sacrifice of a single life to finally bring justice to the world. At least, that´s what Javert always believed ...

    Sequel to Reason to Live. You should read that one first.

    Disclaimer: Les Miserables does not belong to me. It existed long before I was born. The characters of the movie and their personalities belong to Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe and all the other great actors, who gave life to those characters of Victor Hugo. I´m deeply convinced that without their take on them, this story had never been written.

    Summary

    Instead of committing suicide, Javert goes on a three-day bender. When Valjean finds him, Javert assumes he's a hallucination. Things proceed awkwardly from there.

    --

    “Where are you going?” the hallucination asked, which was foolish. Surely his brain knew what Javert planned. 

    “To the nearest--” Javert paused, looked at the recently vacated wine-ship, and amended what he had been about to say. “To the next wine-shop. Obviously I am not drunk enough if you are here.”

    The apparition got to its feet with a wince, as though his mind had ridiculously conjured aches and pains with which to torment Valjean’s specter. “Javert, your words make no sense,” it said, and Javert laughed again.

    “I am making perfect sense.” He touched his pocket where he kept his money, frowned. “I hope you are only a drink or two from going away. I do not know how much more beer I can afford.”
