In Mixed Company, or the Corporate Retreat of Heaven and Hell by TheOldAquarian
Fandoms: Good Omens (TV)

Summary
Every 300 years, Heaven and Hell share a company retreat on Earth during which angels and demons temporarily surrender their celestial powers.
Officially, it’s a time for fostering team unity and better understanding the needs of the client base. It’s definitely not a time for terrorizing the hotel staff with divine/diabolical showdowns, abusing the ethereal expense account, or furiously snogging your hereditary enemy. But when Aziraphale and Crowley are up for promotion, Hell breaks loose and Heaven might just break free.

Summary
[Oh lover, do not be less than a moth
When would a lover avoid the flame?]
Vimes asks how she can be so calm about it.She says it’s different, from the outside. Like watching a person gasp at clean air, wrapping clean cool release around singed, burnt skin. You once said that the Patrician reminded you of cool mechanics and ice.
Vimes says, No do not remind me. I think I might have been wrong.
/I cannot promise anything only that words are used to create sentences but whether or not *sense* is achieved I leave to the reader's discretion. Also, as Borges says, “Being with you and not being with you is the only way I have to measure time.”\

“I was only making conversation,” Vetinari replied.
