Summary
When Valjean arrives in Arras, he realizes that there isn't only Champmathieu to save, but that Fantine's debts have forced her to sell herself as an indentured servant to the town of Montreuil. It seems impossible to save both Cosette and Champmathieu - until Javert offers Valjean a deal: sign himself over into indenture as well... which would place Valjean directly into Javert's power.

Summary
He loves her, he thinks, in a weird sort of way. Loves her like a bird loves a cage, like a moth loves a candle flame. She is the one reason he’s alive, and so many of the reasons he wishes he weren’t. She hurts him, but never as much as he wants her to, never enough to soothe his pain. She is the only person on this island that he doesn’t hate, and he thinks this is the closest thing to love he can have now.
She has succeeded in molding him, but he doesn’t think she’s happy with the result. He is dried clay and sharp pottery shards all in too many pieces to put back together. It doesn’t stop her from trying.
Odysseus, Calypso, and seven long years.

Summary
“Jester knows the story, of course. Everyone does. It's all anyone seems to talk about: how the good old king Leofric and his beloved queen died seventeen years ago in that tragic fire, a terrible accident; how their only son and heir, the prince, lost his mind from grief and had to be sent away to be cured in the countryside; how his bereaved uncle reluctantly accepted the burden of kingship — and how it all turned out to be a lie.”
(The arranged marriage AU that nobody asked for.)
