    Summary

    “You’re avoiding the Pony because of—Maria and Michael? I’m pretty sure they’re not even speaking right now.”

    Alex shrugs. “Yeah, well. Maria’s angry with all of us, but she’ll get over it. They’ll figure it out. I can’t be there when they do.”

    Something close to foreboding prickles its way down the back of Liz’s neck. Alex isn’t one to feel sorry for himself, but right now he looks mournful enough that she wouldn’t be surprised to see tears in his eyes.

    “Are you okay?” she asks bluntly, already knowing the answer.

    Alex tilts his head back and forth, like he’s seriously thinking on how to respond. “Yes,” he says finally. “I mean, no, but I will be. God, you and I haven’t talked about any of this, have we? That’s so weird.”

    Summary

    “Not afraid at all,” the angel finally says. “I mean, maybe slightly afraid. You see, my editor-in-chief doesn’t know I’m here.”
    “He doesn’t?”
    “I was supposed to review the new production of Hamlet…”
    “The one with Ian McKellen?”
    “Yes, exactly, but Eve – Miss Gardner, that is – she’s been working so hard and she would love nothing more than to be taken seriously, and she thought Gabriel gave her this assignment for all the wrong reasons, you see – and, between us, knowing Gabriel, I’m quite sure she was right – and, and I realized she needed my assignment way more than I did. So, if you really must know, I just… gave it away.”
    “You what?!”
    “I gave it away!” the angel repeats, slightly distressed.
    “Let me get this straight: you traded the chance to review one of the most anticipated shows of the year to interview… little old me?”

    (Or: Crowley is a magician with a new Inferno-inspired show opening in London, Aziraphale the angelic-looking journalist who's supposed to interview him. Crowley immediately tries his best to ruffle his feathers. Much to his surprise, though, Aziraphale isn't as pearl-clutchy as he looks. Things go as you'd expect.)

    Summary

    The boys have very different reactions to learning about each other's scars.

    Edwin:
    The scars make up everything Charles was before, everything he is today, as intrinsically linked to him as his cricket bat, and because of that, Edwin treats them as if they’re sacred.

    Charles:
    Charles quickly learns that he hates Edwin’s scars because not a single one of them was caused by Edwin himself; every scar on his body was caused by someone who wanted to hurt him intentionally and that alone is enough to make him feel like he’s swallowed glass.

    Summary

    This is a story about Orpheus and Eurydice, and Hadestown, and the Child Ballads, and an angel and a demon. This is a story about one broken heart trying to mend another. This is a story about how love changes reality no matter what God has to say about it.

    Summary

    Aziraphale has been taking some time to himself. He'd signed up to man a lighthouse on the coast; chunky knits, sea breeze, screaming gulls, and all the quiet time to read books you could ask for. But it doesn't take Crowley long to get bored, to show up with a bottle of wine and a sense of determination to change what they've been for millennia.

    Only something is very wrong at the lighthouse, and the angel is going to need Crowley to risk everything to save him one more time.

    Summary

    Aziraphale wouldn’t say he didn’t like being in Heaven.

    Of course he wouldn’t. He was an angel. It was his domain. He wouldn’t say he disliked it at all.

    He wouldn’t say that sometimes, quite often really, getting out of Heaven felt like shrugging off a too-tight, scratchy jumper. That he always felt just a little more at ease, a little more himself, when he was away from them all.

    Aziraphale would never dream of saying any of these things.

    Summary

    “Why am I an assistant bookseller?” Aziraphale peers over the desk where Crowley has been furiously scribbling. Crowley blinks, his fingers smudged with blue ink.

    “Maybe Anthony finds your lack of authority charming.”

    What if they wrote their own stories?

    Summary

    “It was a nice night, crickets singing beyond the car park. No one was outside but for him, and there was something strangely, absurdly lonely about it. Like he was the last living creature in the entire world. In a way, it had always been a story about this: Crowley, alone. Time was not linear, and so in the end, this was the way things would begin and end and stay. And there, surrounded by the welcoming dark and the unbearable weight of the night sky, he let himself think it:

    Something is coming.

    Summary

    Aziraphale closes his eyes, breathing in a useless but calming breath.

    Then he opens them.

    All of them.

    Perhaps in a human’s brain (provided it didn’t melt right away) it might have interpreted Aziraphale’s eyes opened around himself, floating in space like the motes of dust, or perhaps they wrenched open from his skin, each peering from a different patch of his body but also overlapping one another like an unfinished jigsaw puzzle, or perhaps opened all layered right on top of one another like a bizarre and nauseating stack of glasses overlapping and magnifying.

    All of these were kind of true. But they also were kind of wrong.

    Summary

    An old family curse brings Dr Aziraphale Fell, professor of Religious History and Folkloric Traditions, into correspondence with Mr Anthony Crowley, whose family is said to be cursed.

    Neither anticipates how quickly, or how willingly their letters would begin to matter.

    What follows is a slow, intimate exchange about curses, books, loneliness, belonging... and the unexpected ways two lives can begin to align, one letter at a time.

    Summary

    The memory isn't hazy in Aziraphale's mind; he still sees Crowley, all long lines and unguarded eyes, talking about hills in Italy covered by vines, six courses with six paired wines — a place Aziraphale would like since he was such a snob. Aziraphale had protested, of course, but the ghost of a smile lingered on his cheeks nonetheless.

    He knew he'd accept. He said yes in his head the moment Crowley mentioned the wine parings (or, if he's honest with himself, the moment Crowley sat down on the settee. He'd never say anything but yes.)

    Summary

    It is 1941, during the Blitz. Aziraphale and Crowley share their first, tremulous kiss, and are then abruptly separated. Crowley thinks he knows why, and is both angry and disappointed. But what has happened to Aziraphale is a secret he doesn’t get to hear until a new century is in its teens, and they are both facing the threat of Armageddon.

    A story of the steadfastness of true love under duress in a canon divergent AU.

    This story is complete.

    Summary

    The android revolution has been won, but not for everyone. Not for Connor. Markus already passed judgment on him once, he can’t see a future where that outcome might change. And yet, as tempting as it is to save the Deviant Leader the trouble of killing him, he is reluctant to die before he gets the chance to experience something pleasant. Perhaps making sure the Lieutenant was alright might achieve that.

    Summary

    “But if Connor can abstract love—make it a blueprint, viewed from above, not quite a part of himself—he can begin to decode it. To understand.”

    (Contains: the dubious benefits of over-identifying with pop music, an ill-advised game of emotional chicken with Amanda, the world's worst lake trip, copious robot angst, and Hank trying very hard to be a good dad.)
