Summary
When Aziraphale Eastgate first moves to Tadfield, he struggles to understand the strange culture of the village. They're not friendly or kind or anything he expected from a village in the north. So when he rescues a snake from a snow storm, he's glad for a little company even if it comes in the form of an animal.
Unfortunately, in Tadfield, animals are often not what they seem.

Summary
"Crowley was fixated on Aziraphale eating. It was intense, it was honestly slightly terrifying but it also made him giddy with manic excitement. The rules had been broken, the edges blurred, the natural order upended and tomorrow was not here yet. And oh, he was stewing in his self-made torture, head swimming with wine. [...] He hardly dared extrapolate how Aziraphale would delight in other pleasures of the flesh, but the thought was tantalizing and agonizing in equal measure. Crowley feasted with his eyes, famished. "
Which started as just a horny reading of the ox-rib scene and ended up waxing a bit poetic at the end.

Summary
In a desperate bid for a British Eurovision win, the BBC brings together Stede -- a classically trained pianist who gained mainstream success with his hit children's show By Hook or By Crook -- and Ed -- the washed-up lead singer and guitarist of legendary grimy Britrock band Blackbeard and the Krakens -- to craft a camp single sure to sweep the audience off their feet.
But the bookies have their eyes on dream punk sensation Jim Jimenez, repping Spain; Ed's manager Izzy Hands gets increasingly frustrated as the contest draws closer; the foundations of Stede's marriage become increasingly shaky; and the world watches two very different musicians fall in love.

Summary
The prince, tired of hearing his companions complain about the cold of Jotuneheim, walked with the witch.
"Finish your story, tell me how the Casket was made," he asked.
The blue-skinned witch gave him a half-smile, and for a monster, Loki thought she was beautiful. He hated her, but perhaps it was not so bad to owe her a kiss.
"The Allfather did not seem to think my story worth listening to," she said slyly.
"Well, it's obvious how it ends," Loki said, playing off his interest. "But it's bad luck to leave a tale untold."
"Tell me, how does my story end, little prince?" her eyes amused.
He shrugged. "Laufey betrays your mother and steals the Casket. She cursed him and his son. The baby dies, and Laufey has had no children since."
"You are wrong." Sylvie snapped. "The prince is not dead. Odin stole him, cursed him, turned him into a monster, and keeps him in Asgard."
Loki laughed. "Then I am sorry for you. It must be terrible to be promised to an ugly monster. No wonder you wanted a kiss."
"He is ugly," the witch agreed angrily. "With skin like a shaved beast. And he is a great fool. But time changes things. Kings become monsters, and sometimes monsters become kings."Bookmarked by MicroCosmonaut

Summary
Modern AU - An internationally recognised human rights lawyer Sylvie Lushton is at the top of her game. Her life seems to unfold in the way she wants it to until her best friend Loki announces he’s getting married, and he wants Sylvie to be his best man.
An aspiring politician and member of the aristocratic Laufeyson family, Loki is ready to take the next step in his life. Many eyes are on him as he campaigns for the House of Commons and prepares for the much-expected wedding.
Realising her feelings for him run deeper than she believed, Sylvie finds herself in the middle of the preparations for 'the wedding of the decade'. Sylvie opens a can of worms leading to embarrassing situations as they both navigate the intricate nuances of their complex relationship, making them both reflect and question the choices they once made as well as the ones they’re about to face. Is Sylvie going to be successful in stopping such a high-profile wedding without raising too much suspicion? And what about Loki? Is he slowly realising the big commitment he’s making might be a mistake?
Just an attempt at rom-com with a lot of fluff, mischief, angst, awkward Sylvie (and Loki) as well as eventual smut ;)

Summary
"I thought I could do good," Louis whispered, ashamed to the core of how completely futile it all sounded now. "I thought I could be good." Lestat's eyes blazed silver and gold in the candlelight, and Louis held them, wracked with such anguish that he felt he'd crumble if Lestat looked away now. "Haven't you ever wanted that, Lestat?"
1794. Pointe du Lac lies in ashes. Lestat, desperate to keep Louis with him at any cost, tries something he's never tried before: he talks.

Summary
As Louis turns, Valois’ hand catches him by the elbow and holds him fast. Something jolts through Louis at the contact and he tells himself it's shock at the impropriety, “Will you be coming to the performance tomorrow, Monsieur Louis…?”
“Louis de Pointe du Lac,” Louis says. His whole life he's prided himself on not being the kind of man who makes foolish snap decisions, but he looks at Lestat de Valois, feels the warmth of his hand on his arm, and says, “I will.”
