Description Just a normal day.

Does anyone have actual info about how many hours a day a guy like Javert would've worked in the 1830s France? Would he ever have had holidays? I'm under the impression that unless you were rich, you basically worked all the time you were awake and maybe had Christmas Day off and that was it – but what was it like, really? Also, if anyone has any alternative ideas about Javert's hobbies or knows what any actor who's played the role thinks the guy does in his free time, let me know!

I don't know if it's a good sign to be laughing at one's own art, but got to say, Javert's first nightmare cracks me up.

Thanks so much, so glad you like! I can assure you, there'll be more Les Mis stuff coming up in the future – it just always inspires me...

You're welcome! Every once and a while I stumble over more of your Les Mis art; I really ought to go through your folder one of these days. I look forward to seeing more!

Aww, you! I'll definitely post more in the future – I've been drawing Les Mis stuff for years, I doubt I'm able to stop anymore!

This is perfect! 11:22 Goddamnit (died at that part). So Javert is keeping the dying flame that is rock collecting alive.

Haha, thanks! Yep. My grandmother collected rocks – I guess I have to honor the family tradition somehow, even if I don't collect them myself...

Love it! Poor Javert's nightmares! And I love how crossing paths with Valjean sort of throws off the whole rest of his day.

Starlene In reply to ensignbeedrill [2013-11-05 11:07:32 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I figure it would... Even though I don't think Javert is quite as obsessed with JVJ as the fandom sometimes makes it seem like, I think having him pop up like that would be disorienting for him. It's quite a coincidence, after all!

I always said the best nightmare for both of them would be to be locked in a prison cell together, Javert taunting Valjean with bread, Valjean spitting water at him

loved this

Rock collecting simply seems to suit Javert!

Ha! Β Oh gosh, this is brilliant. Β And it would be interesting to know what he does in his free time...I like the rock collection idea, though I believe I've already told you that while commenting on one of your other pictures. Β I bet another hobby of his (if you could call it a hobby) is yelling at young whippersnappers to get off his lawn...

Starlene In reply to TheRandomAnchovy [2013-11-04 20:41:01 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Yeah, I'm fixated on the rock collection idea – I'm sure I've mentioned it multiple times before... It's just so fitting for Javert! As would be yelling at whoever is loitering on his lawn, yes.

Yep! I don't remember who suggested it at first, but to me, it seems like the perfect hobby for Javert!

I can't even count how many things I love about this comic. The "goddamnit" panel of realization had me laughing so hard. And rock collecting sounds very plausible as a hobby Javert would have.


And Javert's got a kitty!

Starlene In reply to ThreshTheSky [2013-11-04 20:33:25 +0000 UTC]

Haha, so glad to hear you like!

I almost eliminated the cat... My first plan had about six more scenes, one of them "feed the cat" – but after I cut that panel, I almost forgot about the cat. But when I was looking at the finished pages, Javert just looked so lonely, so I figured an animal friend might be a welcome addition after all!
