Juliette Pontmercy and her older brother, Marius, have always been close - they had no secrets...or at least that's what she thought. When he suddenly becomes distant, she becomes suspicious. She worries about the secret meetings he's been attending, and the new circle of friends that he's been spending every day with, and spends nights lying awake, wondering where exactly he is and imagining what she might say to his new friends should she ever be given the chance to give them a piece of her mind. But when she follows her brother one day out of curiosity, she stumbles upon something revolutionary - something that will change her way of thinking and set her life on a brand new path. And Enjolras, the leader of this change, is going to change her life. Based upon Les Miserables by Victor Hugo - all characters belong to him. Character of Juliette is my own and belongs to me.

Path of the Righteous by letothersriseseries

Enjolras, while running from the barricade, ends up saving Javert's life and thus begins the start of an unlikely friendship as Javert focuses on redemption through saving a student on trial. Enjolras finds conflict within, as he cannot forgive Javert, while Javert finds conflict with where his loyalties lie. My fic for the Les Mis mini-big bang, aka The Banguette. Rated for barricade violence and mature themes discussing Javert's spoiler. (Hunger Games is much worse, but there are content warnings at the beginning of each chapter!)
