Summary
That night on the parapet, Valjean forces Javert to live. Some time later, Javert finds himself returning the favor.
"Do you think," Javert said slowly, in a tone that perhaps meant to mock but trembled with another emotion entirely, "that once you have saved a life, you must also save that man's soul?"
"I know nothing of saving souls," Valjean said. "My soul was bought for God, not saved. But it is my belief that you are better than the fate to which you have consigned yourself."

Summary
There was not one day prior to six months ago that Valjean could have imagined this: Inspector Javert reclined on Valjean's settee, his arm thrown across his eyes to shield them from the firelight. He didn't snore. Valjean had never thought that Javert snored, that is, had never needed to wonder what noises the man (when Valjean thought of him as a man at all, which was also a novel development) might make while he slept. Now Valjean knew. He did not snore.

Summary
That absurd man! His bottomless mercy and irritating martyrdom! Giving his bed to his enemy - what nonsense!
Inspector Javert, a known face on the streets of Paris - feared by criminals and honest citizens alike – finds his sense of justice questioned, and the foundations of his world-view begin to crumble. Yet, he is prevented from using those same harsh beliefs against himself by none other than Jean Valjean, a man he believed to be irredeemable. An enemy.
As Javert attempts to navigate a new life of morals, doubting at every turn, the conundrum that is Valjean – honest liar, convict-Saint – does provide more guidance than confusion (but only slightly).
Such trials are easier with a friend by one’s side, after all. But friendship is the last thing either of them expected and maybe, in the end, it's a bond that runs far deeper.

Summary
"What if Javert fucks himself with a zucchini while Valjean is watching and it's the hottest thing ever."
Yes. That's pretty much what this is.
