    “For once, I didn’t say anything,” you say.

    “Yeah, well, sometimes the look on your stupid face does all the talking for your mouth.”

    Gideon gets sick, and Harrow takes care of her.

    Summary

    “I would like you to know me,” Caleb says.

    It feels like a secret. Like the darkest part of him cracked open; all his months and years of hiding, of wrapping his arms and scratching the bindings, of not loving, not loving anything but an unkillable cat — it’s unraveling around him. He feels naked. He feels the way he did the first time Pumat Sol spelled him clean.

    “I find that — I would like you to know me,” he says, again.

    Summary

    Footsteps pad down the hall and past the stairs. Actual footsteps. Verin can’t remember the last time he saw Essek walk on his own two feet. He feels a twisted knot form beneath his sternum; something isn’t right.

    Thinking only of justice and restoring his family's honor after Essek's betrayal, Verin Thelyss finds something he never expected, an Essek he never expected. A mission for justice turns into a race against time and a family finds their world upended.

    Summary

    Sometimes Caleb likes to warm him up with his hands first, pull Essek over his knee and spank him with his open palm. Sometimes he starts with small soothing touches, barely there taps of his hand, until Essek is flushed deep violet and squirming for more. Essek likes that, likes all the things Caleb does to him.

    He likes this too, the distant slide of leather up his thigh, like Caleb is too good to touch him. Like he’s nothing more than a naughty child that needs to be taught a lesson. It’s terrible. It’s degrading.

    Essek loves it.

    Summary

    As he watched them dance, his eyes were continuously drawn back to Caleb. He had abandoned his usual slouch and was standing tall, shoulders back and head held high as he led his dance partners smoothly around the room.

    This was Caleb as Essek had never seen him before.

    Summary

    He’s still trying to formulate a response when Caleb speaks again.

    Or perhaps you could tie me up and leave me on a cushion near the fire, with only its heat to keep me warm while I wait for you.

    Taking a deep breath- and then another- Essek finally finds his words.

    Caleb- I am working. This is highly inappropriate. I need to get this done and you are being distracting. I will finish more quickly if you cease these interruptions.

    Perhaps you should do something to stop me, then.

    Well.

    If he needs further motive to finish his work quickly as possible, this is it.

    Caleb- ’ He lets his voice drop until it’s low and dangerous. ‘You are already going to be in trouble once I’m done. Every message you send after this will only add to what I’m going to do to you. You might want to keep that under strong consideration.

    Pulling a scrap of paper to his side, he isn’t the least bit surprised when Caleb’s voice once again sounds in his head.

    I will take that under advisement, Shadowhand.'

    Summary

    I'll be your mirror; reflect what you are, in case you don't know.

    Crowley drummed his fingers briefly against his mug, and then sat back a little in his chair. He gave Aziraphale a long, appraising glance, and then seemed to come to some decision. “Listen, angel,” he said, “let me pitch you something.”

    Lulled by the familiar patter of Crowley’s voice as he was, Aziraphale still recognised this to be vaguely dangerous territory. He swallowed. “Go on,” he said.

    Summary

    His hands clenched in the angel’s lapels, and that was some kind of miracle in itself, because he could feel The Line trying to prevent it, the holiness of the angel working to repel his advance even as Aziraphale regarded him with mild surprise and walked gently backward into the wall. Now there was this -- this thing crackling between them, trying to push him away like his magnetic opposite, and Crowley was not just hissing but spitting as his mouth watered, his neck flushed, his skin tingled all over.

    Summary

    Crowley – he doesn’t make a single sound. Almost doesn’t breathe at all. Is this what humans feel like in churches, when they drop their eyes to the ground and respect the silence by speaking in murmurs? He reverently presses his lips to the delicate skin in the crook of the angel’s elbow, and it feels like a prayer.
    He chances a glance up, sees nothing but the taut lines of Aziraphale’s bare neck as the angel keeps his face turned away from him. Not disgust, then – permission. Permission to touch, as long as Aziraphale doesn’t have to bear witness to it.

    🔶

    Crowley notices a little quirk Aziraphale has - sometimes, the angel will keep his eyes closed and refuse to acknowledge what's happening around him.
    At times, he does it when there's something he doesn't want to see.
    Other times, when he's indulging in something he's not supposed to.

    Summary

    "Go to alpha centauri, for all I care! Go now, this very instant, and never return, do you hear me, Crowley? Never!"
     

    Due to Crowley's firm conviction that "he need never know", Aziraphale has, for all the time they've known each other, been blissfully unaware of the obedience curse Crowley's been looping holes around since 4004 BC.

    You can't really blame him, is the point. Aziraphale had no idea what his unthinking words might do, and is already planning to apologise profusely at dinner...

    ...which might get a little tricky, seeing as Crowley has just been sighted in the vicinity of Pluto, and has concrete orders to never show his face on earth.
    Ever.
    Again.

    Summary

    He knows Aziraphale wonders about it, sometimes. The snake.

    Crowley’s always careful with it. He’s always careful to make it seem like it should be impressive, to posture and pose and tease; or else he’s careful to make it seem like a joke, to fill it to the brim with bravado and confidence until it’s practically sour on his own tongue, laughing and showing off.

    He doesn’t ever say that he’s afraid, afterwards, and there’s not really much else to be said.
