    Summary

    The Captain - Edward ‘Ted’ Williamson - knows he’s not an easy person to love. After leaving the army and coming to terms with his own sexuality, he has found himself stuck in a rut, constantly making the same mistakes and falling in unrequited love with the wrong people. According to his therapist, he ‘self-sabotages’ by ‘burying his emotions’.

    A tragedy leads to a bittersweet opportunity for a fresh start in a sleepy village, in a cottage with a yellow door and honeysuckle growing up the walls. There’s a disarming amount of room to breathe, and the chance to reluctantly be befriended by the eccentric locals.

    Summary

    Crowley had gotten used to scratching a particular itch in Hell, but he was cut off from it the moment he and Aziraphale cut ties with their employers; and now, happy and in love, the itch is suddenly back and worse than ever.

    Guilt tastes sour and selfish, especially when he finally had everything he’d ever wanted sitting in a cottage in South Downs, and Crowley comes to terms with the fact that this probably was never just about sex after all.

    In short: Crowley is used to getting fucked by a personification of his self-esteem issues and finds that he has a hard time asking for what he really wants.

    And what he wants is to be in the lap of the Divine.

    Summary

    The legions of Hell are not made up solely of those who fell from grace. Some of them hatch. It's that time of the millennia and Crowley has a full clutch of eggs that need to go somewhere.

    Summary

    “Why would I fuck a demon? Simple, the status. Imagine you and your friends arriving at the gates of hell, they’re all crying, scared to death for eternity and you just walk into the arms of your sugar demon, legendary.”

    That wasn't Aziraphale's intent - he just wanted to be with his love.

    Crowley knew it was only a matter of time before the Big One.

    Summary

    “Mr. Crowley, I presume?” Aziraphale asked in lieu of an introduction, which was not forthcoming. The guy hadn’t even removed his sunglasses. Oh God, he had a tattoo on his face. Aziraphale wasn’t one to judge, but… what kind of gardener had a snake tattoo on his face?
