Abstract: In this paper we show that coloured Jones and coloured Alexander polynomials can both be read off from the same picture provided by two Lagrangians in a symmetric power of a surface. More specifically, the $N^{th}$ coloured Jones and $N^{th}$ coloured Alexander polynomials are specialisations of a graded intersection between two explicit Lagrangian submanifolds in a symmetric power of the punctured disc. The graded intersection is parametrised by the intersection points between these Lagrangians, graded in a specific manner using the diagonals of the symmetric power. As a particular case, we see the original Jones and Alexander polynomials as two specialisations of a graded intersection between two Lagrangians in a configuration space, whose geometric supports are Heegaard diagrams.
