my heart lies buried like something dead by Cinaed
Fandoms: Les Misérables - All Media Types, Les Misérables - Victor Hugo

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
The two old men say it has happened before.
They both died long ago, they claim, after a barricade built by Enjolras and his friends. The story is absurd, but the old men's tranquil certainty raises it from risible to unsettling.
"Monsieur," Courfeyrac protests, "I'm twenty-five."
"So were you then," says Valjean. "Every time."

One Year More by DaniilDankovskiy
Fandoms: Les Misérables - Victor Hugo, Les Misérables - All Media Types
20 May 2018
Tags
Summary
“Ah, but monsieur, I have upset you. I should not have said this.” Javert shook his head, and gave another bark of laughter. “It matters not. Valjean is dead. A year since.”
The year is 1824 when Inspector Javert arrives in Montreuil-sur-mer. His absence in the town has given Madeleine unprecedented freedom and the ability to offer friendship in a way that he never could before. It is simply unfortunate that Jean Madeleine is not terribly well practised in the art of friendship, and that his existence as an alias should chafe so terribly upon his shoulders.

Summary
After the barricades fell, Jean Valjean went back to Rue de l’Homme Armé, No. 7 and Inspector Javert went to the Seine. But their paths crossed again when Valjean came home to find an empty house. Will seeking out the inspector be enough to save Cosette, and to save Javert himself?

Summary
Javert turned slightly, preparing to leave.
But his feet refused to move. A flicker of memory stopped him - of one night of the past summer, at the barricade - that night something cracked within him, though he still couldn’t name it. Now, standing over the same man, he felt the fissure widen.
It was infuriating how the past refused to stay buried.
***
After the June rebellion, Javert makes an attempt to return to his normal life. Fate has other plans.

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.”

Summary
“Look, believe it or not, I had no intention of killing the Vampiric Council when I came here,” declares Nadja, sitting alone on the couch. “But Guillermo and I arrived at the first council meeting and did the whole, you know, the whole thing, the first day thing. Introductions and all that, yes hello wonderful to meet you, yes this is my bodyguard, yes he has slaughtered a tremendous number of our kind”--she flaps her hand absently--“normal first day things, you know? It was fine.” She pauses. “It got really fucking weird on the second day.”
Or:
Nadja and Guillermo seize control of vampiric politics, puppeteer world powers, and have the hottest of hot girl summers.
Unfortunately, they also really miss the stupid assholes they're in love with. With no way left to find them, they have no choice but to consult an Archivist.
