Summary
The world is going to end; you could get started early. Tip off the roof, splatter the ground in communist red, let the sunset hit your corpse like a bicentennial art piece to a bygone era that died when the revolution did. Maybe you should do it now.
Instead, you take a long, steadying drag, sprinkling cocaine for flavour over the tip as it burns. You don't fall off the roof. You still picture it.
You're starting to think you might be fucked, actually.

Summary
Harry finds himself in the liminal space between Martinaise and actually having to be Harry Du Bois again. He needs to return to his apartment, and his job, and his life, but the prospect is terrifying; everything that was once him is everything he can't allow himself to be ever again. Kim helps him make the transition, and Harry pines wildly over him. They eat food and talk about the homo-sexual underground. Harry tries not to cry a lot.

Summary
His thumb traces slow circles around the nub of bone in your wrist.
“Kim?"
He pulls his hand back. “I’m sorry, I’ve been drinking.” He smiles. His pupils are dilated and the warmth coming off of him is feverish and so tempting.

Summary
It's autumn, Year '32. "The Thirties." "The New." "The Disco Years." Whatever you want to call it, Revachol is in the midst of its post-Revolutionary boom--a deceptive era of comparative plenty that will, unbeknownst to its citizens, eventually fizzle and die. The Revachol Citizens Militia is rebranding, restructuring, and recruiting. As part of these efforts, Junior Officer Kim Kitsuragi embarks on a new juvenile delinquent mentor program that takes him beyond the Greater Revachol Industrial Harbor. He meets a young gym teacher named Harry Du Bois while on assignment in Couron. Against the fraught, shifting backdrop of Revachol West, their relationship develops into something neither of them expected.

Harry in the driver's seat is the stuff of nightmares. The Kineema rattles around them, the roar of her motor dangerously close to a whine of dying metal. But the immense grey cloth of the highway in front of them barely moves.

Summary
He likes teasing you; likes watching you squirm. It drives you up the wall. Despite both of your eagerness to rush into intimacy, you've yet to convince Kim to actually agree to it. Something about self-control and remaining professional.
AUTHORITY - A poor excuse from him considering he had just kissed you senseless a few minutes earlier.
ESPRIT DE CORPS - Get your head in the game, officer. You're undercover right now. Do as the Lieutenant asks.
CONCEPTUALIZATION - And maybe he'll reward you after.

Summary
Harry calls Kim late at night. Neither of them can sleep. It’s the heat wave, really.
YOU: “What are you wearing right now?”
KIM KITSURAGI: “What am I wearing right now…?” The end of his sentence shifts and changes.
YOU: You hold your breath. It is unbearably hot in this small and stuffy room. Nothing moves.
KIM KITSURAGI: “Nothing, detective. I am wearing nothing. It’s too hot for that.” A small sound. He stretches under the covers. You can hear them shift over his skin.
SUGGESTION: All of his skin.
ELECTROCHEMISTRY: All of his bare skin.

Summary
After 6000 years in the spinning hubbub of earth, Heaven had been overwhelmingly sparse. So bright it stung, so empty it echoed, so utterly quiet the silence howled in your ears and never seemed to stop.
Heaven was like if radio static had teeth, a total body itch you couldn’t scratch, an endless drip drip drip of gentle water slowly driving you mad.
And Aziraphale had spent an entire year there.

Summary
Aziraphale and Crowley grew up together as next-door neighbours on Hogback Lane, classmates at the local Catholic school, and inseparable best friends. By the age of eighteen, both were hopelessly in love with the other, despite the knowledge that they were doomed to live apart, as Crowley aimed to pursue university study in London and Aziraphale committed himself to remaining in Tadfield, dedicating his life to the Church.
After almost twenty years spent away from his hometown, renowned botanist Crowley decides to come and visit Tadfield again at a moment's notice; the purpose of his visit is to speak at a Careers Day for the school he and Aziraphale, now a beloved priest and a frequent helper at the school, attended. The twenty-four hours that follow will change both of their lives for ever.

Summary
When Crowley had snaked himself across the bar top, half purring, half snarling for Aziraphale to live a little, this wasn’t exactly what he meant by it. Not exclusively, anyway. If there was a list of possibilities, it may have been on there somewhere; scrawled as a hasty afterthought, perhaps under a subheading of Things That Would Surely Never Actually Happen.
But the sight of Aziraphale lying naked and debauched in the middle of his black satin sheets was not something he was about to hesitate over.
(If there was a second list, one surreptitiously scribbled on a napkin in the dark corner of a crowded bar, it would be titled Things Crowley Had No Right To Crave As Much As He Did, and it would start and end with this single bullet point)

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—”

Summary
Lucius’ eyes narrow. “You know, he’s not that smart. Maybe you should just tell him what you want.” Both of their eyes turn to Stede, who is studiously not looking their way. Ed scratches at her belly; makes a considering noise.
“Oh, he knows. I’m just playing with my food.”

Summary
“I heard you’re a writer,” Blackbeard says.
There’s a sudden rustling sound as Blackbeard kicks something across the floor. Frenchie bends down to retrieve it, and sees that it’s a notebook. Wide and empty, like that one Lucius used to carry around with him.
“Write us a better ending then.”
(Captain Blackbeard has heard about Frenchie’s ‘bit of fanfiction.’ He asks him to write a better ending for his and Stede’s story. Frenchie tries his best but soon other people want to tell the story the way it should have gone, including Fang, Lucius, Ivan, Jim, and ultimately Ed. In the act of surviving and telling stories together, relationships are considered, examined, and developed. Meanwhile, a ship trailing seagulls grows closer and closer on the horizon.)
