Summary
"I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy,"
These words he did say as I boldly stepped by
"Come sit down beside me and hear my sad story
I am shot in the breast and I know I must die..."In 1916, midway through an exciting cross-country adventure (we assure you), Supernatural Bounty Hunter Dwayne ends up closer than is wise with his vampiric quarry.
Technically part of a series, but can be read as stand-alone because it's just porn.

Summary
Everyone wants to know what's wrong with Ed Thompson, and there's no shortage of things to pick--he's too scrawny, too loud, too smart in the wrong ways, too obsessed with horror and not enough with girls. A major freak among freaks.
Ed wants to know things too, like why Charley's new neighbor makes his heart pound and how long he's going to be stuck in a backwater like Rancho Corvalis. It's unfortunate for him that the cost of getting answers is higher than death.
Part of a series, but can be read standalone.

If by a twist of fate Daniel hadn't found (or been found by) Armand in New Orleans, in the ruins of the house where Louis let Lestat go, he surely would have returned to the city, the room, the moment where it all began.

Just before our love got lost, you said "I am as constant as a northern star, " and I said "Constantly in the darkness. Where's that at? If you want me, I'll be in the bar."
~Joni Mitchell
Aziraphale and Crowley have been hooking up for a long, long time, with alcohol giving them the kind of plausible deniability that really only exists in the participants' own minds.
But those two millennia of drunken, deniable "mistakes" came to an abrupt end in the 20th century, and Crowley never understood why. Now, though, heavy with the realization that he nearly lost Aziraphale forever—maybe it's time to find out. -
