Summary
But no. When offered a choice, the angel didn't want him. He wanted Crowley Forgiven. Wings bleached, fangs dulled, all the rough parts of him filed off til he was a perfect diamond, all cut edges and smooth, pure, shining uniformity. He wanted to scrub out all his distasteful parts, all his rage and pain and sickness and hatred, and didn't care that he'd be scrubbing Crowley out too. And even worse, he’d actually thought Crowley would want that.

Summary
Maybe this was where their differences became an unbroachable divide between them. Over the past few months, with much trepidation, Frank had managed to ascertain that Bill did in definitely know the Earth was round, and did believe in climate change (‘though the government was never gonna do anything about it’), but maybe this was it. Maybe he believed myopia was a scam made up by opticians to sell more glasses or something.
Or
Frank gets new glasses and Bill starts behaving strangely. Misunderstandings occur :')

Summary
Percival spluttered. “So I’m just supposed to lie?”
“Not lie…” Lancelot hedged anxiously. “You’ve just… changed your name! It’s not a big deal, I changed my parentage first time I became a knight, and Merlin can help if you need…”
“The first time?” Percival repeated, eyes narrowed.
“What was that Merlin?” Lancelot said loudly. “Right, yes, coming!”Or
Everyone assumes that Lancelot and Percival knew each other for months before coming to Camelot, but did they actually?

Summary
'“First… my name’s Frank.”
After he says it he realises how stupid it probably sounds to the man, how it’s the first thing he reaches for to try and change his mind. To Frank though, simply giving your name is a gift, an act of trust. Of laying down your shields and your masks and saying, I won’t hurt you. Please don’t hurt me. A name is sacred, more than something typed on a piece of card. It was the core of you, if you chose.'
Or
Bill and Frank's first day, but what if they realise they share something else in common?

Summary
The walk down the hall has never taken so long. Maybe it's the weight in his stomach, that seems to get heavier every step he takes in the ringing silence.
Still, he very nearly makes himself believe the tale he's spun himself. Right up until the moment the door slams, further down the hall. Then he just knows.

Summary
Leon nodded, half wishing he could leave the conversation there, but he felt bad that she was so obviously miserable. “Do you… have someone special like that?” Perhaps she was missing them?
It was the wrong thing to say. Her face crumpled again and she looked away. “No. I do not.”
“Could you… find someone if you wished though?” He was very out of his depth, but he was fairly sure to most people’s eyes she was pretty. Her hair was very shiny at least. Was that all people looked for?
“Yes, you would think so wouldn’t you?” Her voice was bitter. “I’ve had many chances, but-“ She broke off and shook her head in frustration. “I’m just… not right.”
She looked back towards Elyan and Percival, who were now sat down, leaning into each other and holding hands as they chatted with Arthur and Gwen.
“I would give up my kingdom,” she said quietly. “To be so loved. But it seems I cannot love in the way I want to.”Or
At the feast after Elyan and Percival's wedding, Leon finds some of the visiting guests unexpectedly relatable, and he is not the only one

Summary
“I’m in love,” Elyan declared, walking into Gwen and Arthur’s room and flopping straight down on the bed.
“You’re gay,” Gwen replied, barely looking up from brushing her hair.
“I’m in love.”
“And I don’t recall you knocking either.”
“The door was open, this is on you. I’m in love.”
“You’re also getting married, to the only person you’ve ever been attracted to.”
"I’m in love.”
“You’re not enchanted are you?” Arthur asked nervously from his desk. Though The Lady Vivian’s enchantment had been lifted years earlier, he had been on edge since she’d arrived yesterday afternoon. “That happens a lot around Vivian.“
Gwen snorted. “I don’t think an enchantment could get past just how gay Elyan is.”
Elyan took a moment to look vaguely flattered before his awestruck expression returned. "She’s incredible.”Or
Elyan's found a new friend
