Have you ever looked at Valvert and thought, “Hmm what if instead of the justice system, their conflict was focused on… *checks notes* classical music?!”

Well, you’re in luck because we are putting them in a situation (orchestra)! Featuring conductor Valjean and concertmaster Javert!

Valvert steal for @lesmisshippingshowdown! Maglistine is also there because I miss them :((

Rating: Okay so like the multichapter fic will eventually be explicit, but this chapter is very much SFW. Like probably G-T rated. But the fic as a whole is E rated.

Thank you to the lovely @little-linda for beta reading <3

I’ve been talking about this AU for So Many Months so I’m so excited it’s finally happening :)

Andrew Carnegie was a generous supporter of the New York Philharmonic Society, meeting its annual deficits in its early years. One year the society’s secretary came as usual to Carnegie’s mansion, this time requesting $60,000. Carnegie was just about to sign the check when he paused and said, “No, I’ve changed my mind. Surely there are other people who like music enough to help with their own money.” He then told the secretary to go out and raise half the necessary amount, promising to match it with the other half when this had been done.

The following day the secretary was back at the Carnegie mansion, announcing that he had raised the requisite money. Carnegie commended the man’s enterprise and wrote out and signed his check for $30,000. As he handed it over he said, “Would you mind telling me who gave you the other half?”

“Not at all. Mrs. Carnegie.”
