No need to apologize Mssr... *the name stops him cold, looks up at him*

Javert. ...*a longer pause then he intended, before bowing his head to examine his paperwork as he turns away to put distance between them* We are pleased to have you...although you'll find our town a quiet sort of place.

*another long pause* Have you ever been stationed anywhere like this before?

I believe that quiet is exactly why my superiors sent me here, Monsieur Mayor.

He shook his head slightly. My only previous was in Toulon, at the prison.

My superiors felt that I was in need of a change of scenery.

It was... true, but not the entire story. The paroled convict that had disappeared was not mentioned, nor the strain that eight years of thinking about that again and again had put on him. Nor the assorted attempts on his life by some of the prison inmates.

But those were unimportant details.

*listens in silence, a little unwilling to move, to breath*

Toulon? *another short nod before offering the papers back* Wel-welcome to Montreuil-Sur-Maire, Inspector. I hope you find your peace here and your- ah- *can't bring himself to smile* your justice, in whatever form that may be.

Thank you, sir.

He bowed again, taking the papers back and replacing them where he had pulled them from.

I shall do all I can to assist you and this fine town.
