Siren (A Reply) - original Valvert song <3 @lesmisshippingshowdown

Please do not copy to another site!

(This is just a voice memo for now so forgive any audio quality issues! It's basically Valjean's POV of the first scene of a Post-Seine AU and it's a response to a different song I wrote a few years ago that's Javert's POV. Singing/guitar/lyrics by me. These old men break my heart I love them so much.)

Lyrics:

River raging, you followed this love where it leads - 

A Siren calling in a city full of reckoning and grief.

I know you well, you’re all I’ve ever known,

But I never dreamed I’d lead you to a precipice or crossroads,

A threshold.

We are mirrors, confront our best and worst parts in the glass,

Unrelenting as the river and the stars reflecting back the ways we’ve failed. 

In spite of what we seem, you feel me pull like something mythological and godly,

I’m sorry.

But maybe you are not so heartless,

I am not my darkness,

We are not the ones we thought we knew.

And in the reckoning and despair,

Maybe somewhere out there

Is a city big enough for me and you.

Eleventh hour, you asked if this is what I wanted my whole life,

But all I know is how to run and how to ask you for more time.

I don’t know fate, and I don’t need revenge,

But I know I’d scour the constellations and the cobblestones for how to be your friend,

Or how to change the way it ends.

But maybe you are not so heartless,

I am not my darkness,

We are not the ones we thought we knew.

And in the reckoning and despair,

Maybe somewhere out there

Is a city big enough for me and you.

And absolution is not the fall from the height,

It’s an ember slowly glowing into a new light.

From where you stand, I know the church bells sound like sirens, 

And shame replies between the echo and the silence.

You feel the city closing in, the river rising,

But I could stay with you until you let the light in.

I would stay with you until you let the light in,

Sit by the fireplace and walk around the garden,

You would find a different chase to thrill your mind with,

And I would find a different way to be your Siren.

I could find a different way to be your Siren,

To change your mind after the years that I’ve spent trying.

One day we’ll see past what each of us symbolizes,

So just step back and take my hand and let the light in.

Please let me find a different way to be your Siren.

A bunch of doodles inspired by this fic

(Chapter one specifically, the rest wasn't posted when I drew this)

Idk what it is about this one, something about them being confused over their feelings, anxious and Javert trying to not let Valjean starve while not knowing how to help😭💖

Javert turned slightly, preparing to leave.

But his feet refused to move. A flicker of memory stopped him - of one night of the past summer, at the barricade - that night something cracked within him, though he still couldn’t name it. Now, standing over the same man, he felt the fissure widen.

It was infuriating how the past refused to stay buried.

***

After the June rebellion, Javert makes an attempt to return to his normal life. Fate has other plans.

I love being in the Valvert fandom so much. Not only is it for some reason always the same 20 people screaming "exactlyyyyyyy" at each other, every single one is so talented too! I love you guys ❤️
