    Summary

    Struggling through a strange, hostile town while attempting to locate the President’s missing daughter, Leon begins to doubt his ability to complete this mission. He's never been able to save the people he's cared about before. The people he's cared about have never bothered to stay before. He’s very aware attachments only exist to break his heart. So why then, does he find himself growing closer with the smooth-talking Luis Serra? It’s bound to end in disaster, especially when one of you are shackled and not really sticking around voluntarily.

    Aka. What if Luis and Leon stuck together after the chain scene? How would such a simple, single event change things?

    Canon rewrite, except I play extremely fast and loose with canon and everyone is Mentally ill and a Disaster because I say so

    Summary

    Valery Legasov, brilliant and solitary scientist, lives surrounded by what is never spoken: in laboratories, in empty hallways, in thoughts left unsaid. Boris Shcherbina, hardened statesman, appears to be his opposite—loud voice, imposing presence. Yet between them, during and after Chernobyl, a quiet and unshakable bond takes root.
    In a world that erases names and rewrites memory, all that remains is the trace of gestures, a voice on tape, a hammock still swaying in the wind.
    A love never spoken, yet perfectly clear. A loyalty that defies time, guilt, and death.

    [...] “Maybe… because I know you’ll leave. Or maybe I will. Or both” Boris says quietly, like a confession. “And it scares me that the memory of you… of us, might be enough for me. More than your presence.”
    Valery doesn’t answer. He looks at him. One of those looks that weighs heavy, holding back every word that wants to burst out but doesn’t dare.
    “I don’t want to be a memory” he murmurs after a long pause. “But I don’t know if I know how to be anything else. Not in this world. Not in the life we’ve been given.”

    Summary

    Curse him. Curse his name and this supposed gift he’d given of life. Even Javert’s final thought, submerged willfully in the cold waters of the Seine, was littered with the remnants of Jean Valjean. Let him be free. Let the water wash away the curse inflicted on his soul. Let him die now, too tormented to wait in agony for a natural death, even if it meant the remainder of his soul would go to Lucifer’s domain. Let his eternal life be one of misery, as he deserved. Perhaps Valjean would meet him there, but Javert did not think it so.

    Rescued from the Seine by a determinably anonymous benefactor, Inspector Javert struggles to cope with the consequences of being left alive.
