Summary
“That’s not possible. How could my eyes just change overnight?”
Crowley snapped his fingers. The mirror remained stubbornly shattered. He looked up at Aziraphale, face pale.
Aziraphale took a step forward. “Like I said, I think something’s happened.”
“What’s going on? Why isn’t it working?”
Crowley snapped his fingers again, his agitation growing. Aziraphale placed a hand on his shoulder.
“Crowley, let’s leave the mirror be for now and talk this over. I’ll make us some tea, or coffee, or whatever you’d like. I just don’t think it’s a good idea to for either of us be around broken glass at the moment.”
Crowley nodded, taking Aziraphale’s hand and stepping over the shards to safety. Aziraphale could feel his hand shaking in his.
“Crowley,” he said, “I need you to take a deep breath.”
“Why? I don’t need to breathe.”
“Yes, I rather think you do. I think we both do.”
“Angel, what is going on?”
Aziraphale reached forward and placed a hand on Crowley’s chest, feeling a strong heartbeat racing beneath it.
Crowley reached forward and did the same.
“Crowley,” Aziraphale said after a moment, afraid to speak the truth into being, “I think we may be human.”

Summary
“The fuck?” Ed manages, instantly getting his foot stuck in a nearby bucket.
“Sh-shh!” Stede pushes two fingers against his lips to shut him up.
Ed goes still and a bit cross-eyed, staring down at the hand on his mouth. Stede moves it away, with a mouthed “sorry!” focusing intently on the sounds outside the shed instead.
In the alley, hurried steps and shouting voices rush past; they catch fragments of: “Where the fuck did they go then?” or “Keep looking!” and even “The short one looks like a bloody birthday cake, how do you lose that—”
