More pics of Stewart Clarke as Javert at the curtain call Les Mis West End 19th April 2025
I love his Javert so much, he was so good! 🥰
#les mis west end#stewart clarke#elfcop#javert#thank you to the Elf Cop fanclub for convincing me to see him#it was so worth it and I’ve not fully recovered from it after a week#one of the best Javerts I’ve ever seen#Bradley gets to be 2nd place because he’s feral too#and QuastVert will always be the standard for Javert#but there’s something about the younger ones that I just want to. bite them. chew on them like a toy. put them in my pocket#and keep them safe in there. does anyone else get me or am I losing my mind here#hnnng younger Javerts who have lost themselves too early on and can’t find a way out#younger Valverts who get to live in an AU and grow old together and happy#les mis ramblings#valvert#Jean Valjean#Matthew dale

It’s the most honest job Stan’s ever had.
Sure, the company he’s working for is downright diabolical, scamming their customers in all aspects of life, but that’s not Stan’s problem.
As Le Ville Corp’s most successful customer service agent in the Oregon area his only job is to follow the company guidelines, sell as many bad deals as possible and never ever let anyone back out of a contract.
Morality aside, nothing the company does is actually illegal, so at the end of the day Stan gets to collect his almost-minimum-wage-sized paycheck and go home in the knowledge, that no pigs will come knocking on his door anytime soon.
Life is good. Or at least as good as it gets where Stan is concerned. Last month he even got a raise for selling every bad product the company had to offer to one poor kind sucker.
From household appliances to car insurance, magazine subscriptions and even their extremely shitty telephone and electricity contracts - the McGucket guy brought it all.
Thanks to him, Stan could upgrade from his car to an almost black mold free one room appartment with a community bathroom one block over.
Stan was finally moving up in the world and then his phone rings. He recognises the number. It’s his good friend Fiddle-not-gonna-say-the-rest McGucket.
Stan grins and cracks his knuckles. It’s about time McGucket figured out he’s gotten scammed. Time to make the poor guy’s life a living hell. No one is getting out of a contract on his watch.
“Thank you for calling Le Ville Corp. For us you are more than just a customer. You are family! This is Piers. How can I help you today?”
The moment Stan starts his greeting, he is bombarded with noise disturbances from the other side.
Ah, the good old Le Ville Corp telephone network working as intended. Maybe Stan can convince the guy to upgrade to a slightly less egregious version.
Wait, what did he say?
His name is Dr. Stammered Lynes? Weird, but okay. Still better than Fiddle-nope-not-saying-it Hardon McGucket.
As it turns out, Stan finally met the mysterious roommate whose money McGucket has been using to pay for all of their products. Stan didn’t think the guy had it in him to ditch his roommate after the scam got discovered. Good for him!
Now, how to best screw Dr. Lynes here over.
***
An hour and a half of data security safety questions and a new phone contract later the doc hangs up to Stan’s cheery and corporate mandated farewell:
“And don’t forget we here at Le Ville Corp consider you our forever family, because you will stay with us forever!”
***
Stanford Pines just had the worst month of his life [not counting the weeks after the science fair that he refuses to think about].
The portal test was a disaster, his partner left, his muse refuses to explain himself and on top of all of that his new fridge won’t open, because this week’s subscription fee hasn’t been paid yet.
What the f-FIDDLEFORD!
#gravity falls#stanley pines#stanford pines#Stan’s full fake name is Piers Campfield#for various reasons. For 2. Two reasons.#Stan was quite surprised when he managed to sell all their household appliances to Fidds.#From what Stan understood the guy would be able to create his own from scratch in a heartbeat.#Turns out Fidds was quite intrigued by their innovative subscription system that connected all appliances to Le Ville Corp's private networ#Fidds thought it would be a fun side project to mess around with.#Ford is still in denial about Bill having betrayed him and being evil#so he rather spends his time arguing with his extremely frustrating customer service agent.#Or he would be arguing if he wasn’t forced to pass another security test every time he asks a question.#And then he has to spell everything out twice because “the connection is bad”#WHY IS THEIR TELEPHONE PROVIDER THE SAME AS HIS FRIDGE ONE???#Ford keeps finding more and more subscriptions#contracts and products regarding Le Ville Corp and keeps trying to give them back and/or cancel them but he only ends up upgrading his exis#Also…Ford’s money is running out.#If he ever meets “Piers” he’s gonna shoot him with his crossbow.#And yet Ford keeps calling Piers even after he realizes that Bill has betrayed him and that there are more important things he has to deal#He grows more paranoid#sleeps less#then not at all#but he still has Piers. His forever family. His family. Piers will help him. He has to.#So he explains everything to Piers and asks him to come and take his Journal as far away as he can.#Piers...agrees. That’s what being a forever family means!#Le Ville Corp doesn’t lie to their customers!#Stan should've never gotten attached. This was the best job he’s ever had#and now he’s throwing it all away to help a stranger he annoyed over the phone for weeks#just because he called Stan family.#This might be the dumbest thing he’s ever done.

WAIIIIIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT HOW DID I JUST NOW LEARN AFTER ALL THIS TIME--
Like, I've known about the religious aspect of Javert's death! Catholic theology taught that suicide was a mortal sin, meaning a sin that would send you to hell--Javert, who is described as exactingly religious (viewing religion as another authoritative structure, in contrast to Valjean's personal faith), was so distraught over the error and failure of his worldview, that he broke what he'd regarded as a sacred rule to punish himself and condemn himself to hell. I've known this! And it's agonizing!!
But then I read a YouTube comment of all things, and maybe this is an old take but it just eviscerated me:
At the time of Javert's death, suicide was a crime in France.
His last act was to break the law.
Mr. Hugo, I'd like to retire now, you're giving me too many emotions to process.
#javert#les mis#les miserables#spoilers#not sure if i need to tag that?? but it is ahead of where les mis letters is rn so might as well???#kay can i just catch my breath for a second#meta#my meta posts#kay is a classical literature nerd#like is this not AGONIZING TO YOU???????#not arguing he's a good person but just WOW that is some brutal contrast right there mr. hugo#that's how you right an antagonist that the audience aches for#if only he could have been redeemed!! but that would only have been possible if he were a different man#one who would choose it. one who would allow it--allow God to 'hold dominion over' him (to steal the musical's words)#aughhhhh someome had said it's a well-written character arc and ending because it makes you yearn for a different one#and that thought has been in my mind on loop for a week now#like man. if only it could have been different (it would never have been)#kay has a party in the tags#*write ugh

just finished the furthest shore (by ursula k le guin) which really i just read so i can get to tehanu and ohhhhh my god im thinking about tenar and ged again. how they are light and dark. how they are the darkness in the light and the light in the darkness and constantly switching places in those roles. how their bond came not because of some cosmic romantic greatness but because of a shared need to escape. how their victory has inherent loss in it. like tombs of atuan literally book of all time holy shit🧎♀️🙏
#like ursuka k le guin really DID THAT. huh.#earthsea#ive spent too much money in the past two weeks but. what if i spent more of it on books. what if i did that.#books#read the little sneak peak of tehanu at the end of furthest shore. literally GOONING for a copy. oh it looks so good. oh tenar i love you.#TENAR I LOVE YOU <333333
