Summary
“So we just hold on fast / Acknowledge the past / As lessons exquisitely crafted / Painstakingly drafted / To carve us as instruments / That play the music of life.”
Once, there was a revolution that started for the sake of one man. But revolutions do not end after a day; a country could not be rebuilt based on changing a single law.
Still, this revolution is led by those who have looked upon history and learned from it; by those who looked upon the faces of those who suffered and said, no more. And so change comes: slow, halting, meeting with obstacles every turn, but utterly inexorable.
Sequel to all sinners crawl, covering the 18 years that passed between the ending of the fic and Epilogue 2. Please don’t read this before reading all sinners crawl, because nothing will make sense. Posting is complete..

Summary
Enjolras presses his lips together. He already looks pained, and Grantaire hasn't even opened his mouth yet. That's got to be a record, even for them.
"I need a favor," he says at last.
"With what?" says Grantaire. "Ooh, are you forming a cult? Can I join? I'd be awesome at cults, I just know it." He ticks off his qualifications on his fingers. "I love chanting, I look great in robes—"
(High school AU. Grantaire the disaffected stoner is pulled into a cause bigger than himself. Or: in which there are pretend boyfriends for great justice.)

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
When the crew of the Surveillante pull a siren from the water, Capitaine Javert decides it is better to hand it over to the authorities rather than kill it outright. But the sea holds more perils than one vexing siren, and Javert could find his command tested to its breaking point.
