Aw poor Javert... I guess I'm a bit like him, I'm not good with feelings (and especially expressing mine). It's actually more complicated since I'm terrified of love and the idea of someone loving me. But I just feel like I can recognize myself in him.

Maybe if this fic was in French I could say if it's historically accurate or not in the sentences, but in English I'm just clueless.

I wish I could cuddle Javert but I think I'd just hurt him further.

I'd like to find the right words to describe how perfect this was, but I can only say I'LL GO DOWN WITH THIS DAMN SHIP

Geez, man, right in the feels. I'm wibbering away in bed at 4 o'clock in the morning because of this. XDDD Need to find me some fluff to get me through the day. ;)

SO MUCH GOOD COMES FROM THE KINKMEME, AMIRIGHT?

As per your A/N last chapter, I didn't think you were using any turns of phrase or words that struck me as particularly heinous. But I might be spending too much time reading anachronistic crackfic. It's not like everyone else is able to write like Hugo's contemporaries. Because those guys be craycray and loquacious and tangenty LIKE WHOAH (case in point: freaking Waterloo).

Oh, oh! How sad. :( But kind of... more realistic than most.

Poor poor Javert. I really love how you portrayed him though. I hope there is a sequel.

It was so sad, but I enjoyed it till the end. Hope to read some more of this.

aw. aw aw. aw baby no.

Oh, no happy ending? Please give Javert a happy ending? My heart went out to him. Sigh. Very good fic, though, it made my heart clench.

Loved this story and poor Javert, I know that the major is Jean Valjean but still they should be together. Hope yo make a squeal to this story

Awesome
And... Cute. Really. Just curious though, the assaulted woman, that wasn't Fantine by any chance, was it?
Can' wait for the update!

I really liked this part: "Yes, it's uneasiness, Javert thought. To this point, it had seemed Madeleine was only reluctantly assisting Javert, and Javert realized Madeleine was just as duty-bound as he was. He's not here to look after me; he's here because he saw someone get injured, someone without a family or a wife or anyone else to look after him. It's his conscience that brings him here, not his heart."

I don't know if this is going to turn into a romance (I hope so) but I really like that you're not making it rushed and that they are not - at least apparently - in love with each other. I think this bit is very in character for Valjean/Madeleine and it's great. I don't mind the length of the characters I think they're perfect.

Other than that one use of "okay" I haven't noticed any glaring problems with your dialogue. If you'd like feedback I'd be happy to beta, but I think you've got it pretty well under control. I always just ask myself if the phrase is something I would say today...if the answer is yes, I try to tweak it. I'm not ordinarily into slash, but I'm curious to see where you take the story. Keep up the good work!

This is a very interesting rendition of this scene...a very nice change from having Javert and Madeleine arguing over Fantine...well, though poor Javert probably would prefer that to being beaten in such way. I look forward for more. (Just, I would advise you against using words such as "okay" because it doesn't fit the period but the rest is just fine :))
