Montparnasse & Jean Valjean

[cahn]

One of my favorite scenes in the Brick, which I'd totally forgotten about before my latest reread, is the one where Montparnasse tries to jump Valjean and ends up on the ground with Socially Awkward St. Valjean giving him a twenty-minute rant about how awful prison is. So when I saw voksen's NPT prompt about a fix-it fic where Montparnasse and Valjean interact after the barricades, it turned out I had MANY THOUGHTS about these two and how they might interact.

I started typing up all my thoughts, and then I realized I should just give you the fic:

The Perils of Walking in the Rue de l'Homme-Armé (3690 words) by raspberryhunter

Summary:In which Montparnasse finds that the perils of walking in the Rue de l'Homme Arme are twofold: first, that one might begin to think; and second, that one might come across a weak old man.
