    Summary

    The simple truth of it was that Jane was scared. It was an unusual and wholly unwelcome feeling, one that Jane was unaccustomed to. He knew that Lisbon expected sex, that she was waiting for it. The idea that she might have certain expectations of him was frightening. He was out of practice, out of his comfort zone, and overcome by the depth of his own desire for her.

    The sure-footed, arrogant Jane that she'd known for the last fourteen years had no standing here. He felt embarrassingly like a teenage boy around her now. Poised on a hair trigger, unable to gather his composure.

    Summary

    “Y’know, you’re very transparent when you’re feeling guilty about something,” he says finally, his tone light and conversational.

    “Guilty about something?” She repeats, far too quickly. “What in the world would I have to feel guilty about?”

    “I don’t know,” he replies evenly, “but I’m very interested to find out.”

     

    (Or: Lisbon has an atypical dream and Jane is inconveniently perceptive.)

    Summary

    “Lisbon, you didn’t really invite me here for tea”, he points out, aiming for a teasing tone but his own body betrays him.

    She laughs nervously, all previous bravado gone. “Well, it still felt like a polite thing to offer”, she explains, her back still turned to him.

    Neither of them moves, he can hear her breathing, quicker, quicker, quicker, more shallow. He takes a few steps forward and stands behind her. His hand lifts slowly, his fingers catching her hair, moving the delicate locks aside. He can see the goosebumps travelling down her neck as he looks at the exposed skin and then, before he can stop himself, he leans down and plants a gentle kiss on her shoulder.

    Summary

    “At first I had thought you intended me to wear them.” Valjean’s expression is thoughtful as he says it, but there’s a hint of darkness behind his eyes.

    Javert forces a laugh. “Did you not believe me when I told you I never intended to put you in chains again?”

    “This is rather a different scenario than what I believe you had in mind,” Valjean says reasonably. Still, his hands are gentle.

    Prompt: Valjean And Javert Realize They're Ace And/Or Aro, And Everyone Is Accepting, And They Are Happy.

    On a cool June night on one of the many bridges in Paris, Valjean fractures something in Javert with a simple touch and a soft plea that sends a tremor through his soul. Valjean stubbornly teaches him mercy, kindness, and the language of touch, and Javert is metamorphosed.

    Summary

    When it turns out all Cosette really wants as a wedding gift is for her lonely empty-nester, perpetually single father to actually bring a date, Valjean is caught completely off-guard. He knows he's too old and inexperienced to bother with romance, but he can't disappoint Cosette. Now if only he could get someone to pretend to date him—just for one day—all would be well...

    Summary

    Tired from countless blind dates set up by Cosette, Valjean grabs a random person by the arm in line at a café to tell her that he'd "met someone" to save himself from further embarrassment. Unfortunately, he grabs Javert. Javert, who Valjean had to talk off a bridge after the protests last year, who pardoned him in exchange for never seeing him again.

    Cosette is, of course, thrilled. She finds Javert's work email online and pesters him about dating her father. Javert agrees, if only because his subconscious is telling him that he owes Valjean for saving his life twice. From there the two of them proceed to "date" while still kind of hating each other.

    Of course, things don't stay that way.

    Summary

    Prompted by anon on tumblr: "There is not enough jealous!Valjean so I'd like something with Valjean as Madeleine being jealous without reason. Maybe Javert is doing his rounds at the docks, meaning prostitutes ahead, and the women there really like him because Javert is always fair, and Valjean comes across them by accident when some of them thank Javert for saving them from a bunch of drunken blokes."

    Brain decided: Valjean does not like seeing the inspector talking with the women of the docks. Because of reasons. Mayor-ish reasons. Law reasons. Etc. We feel you, buddy.

    Summary

    Surely Valjean knew. Yet he has been calm and self-assured through it all, never faltering, never flinching—and even as Javert leaned forward to kiss him, he watched him with that assured benevolence and did not move away.

    And now he gasps at an accidental brush of fingers, and when Javert goes to chide him, finds that he is blushing. "Now you've done it, Javert," he says to himself under his breath. "That's just the thing I need—to make a fool of us both."

    Summary

    It has nearly been a year since that night on the bridge where Javert had stepped down and allowed Valjean to teach him friendship and mercy. In the months between, he has settled into Valjean's spare bedroom and has come to appreciate and even crave the company of the man he spent decades chasing. He is content and wants for nothing save for there to be less paperwork crossing his desk and less of Cosette's husband in his presence.

    Until, quite by accident, he sees Valjean as a flesh-and-blood man for the first time with needs like any other; needs that Javert finds himself echoing, reciprocating, and craving even more of. A man does not crave even the barest touch of his mere friend, so what is this emotion that fills Javert's chest until Valjean's fingers are wiping tears from his face?
