    Summary

    Let me tell you a story.

    Richie said it because it was all he knew how to do anymore, and because there’s closure in a carefully crafted story, which doesn’t reflect life.

    Jokes are stories.

    They’re condensed, tidy. Beginning, middle, and end are replaced with setup and payoff. Introduce a concept and see it through to a rewarding conclusion.

    Summary

    Eddie didn’t want it to be about him for fucking once. He’d been poked and prodded and helped and supported, and Richie had held cups to his mouth in those earlier days when even lifting his arms seemed impossible, and now he just wanted to do something, and not have it done to him.

    And fuck if he hadn’t been waiting long enough for Richie. Not just Richie, for the time when he could say, I want to jump this guy, and be okay with that; and this guy was Richie, and the time was now, and they were doing this, Goddamn it.

    Summary

    Eddie shook his head, lips quirking upwards in a confused half-smile that Richie was immediately drawn to. “You seem stupid familiar,” he said with a laugh.

    “I don’t think we know each other,” Richie replied, then added, like the moron he was, “I’d remember you.”

    This guy wasn’t the sort you forgot.

    Or, the one where it's 1998 and Richie sits down at the bar next to an asshole with a Palm Pilot.

    Summary

    Eddie wakes up in greywater and he wonders which disease will kill him.

    Well, that’s not wholly true. Eddie wakes up in greywater and thinks, in this order:

    Shit.

    What happened?

    Where’s Richie?

    Neck deep in sewage, it’s only then he wonders:

    How many cases of cholera occur domestically every year? Six? Seven? What are the chances I’m one of them?

    Summary

    Lace.

    Just a hint of it: white, peeping out from under the waistband of Aziraphale’s trousers. A finely woven pattern of sprigs of roses and briony linked together with intricate diamond thread work. There was something vaguely Victorian about it, suggesting a handcrafted wedding veil or perhaps the contents of a hope chest. The lattice clung tightly to the pale skin beneath it, pearly lace on pearly skin, creating an almost tattoo-like appearance as if the design was threaded onto his very flesh in only a shade lighter than his own tone.

    Well, fuck.

    Summary

    The house on Neibolt was standing again.

    Bill was talking about going in alone. How?

    “So does somebody want to say something?” Eddie asked, still breathing, still fucking breathing and alive and not dripping his Goddamn organs out of his chest.

    “Richie said it the b-best when we were here last,” Bill said.

    “Holy fuck.”

    Summary

    Temptation was woven into Crowley stitch by stitch like a fine brocade; once, before the schism, before Heaven and Hell were even places, a seamstress had threaded temptation through him, laced desire and need and want and lust and love through his very core like She filled all her creations with various intrinsic properties. Larks can’t choose not to sing, and so too Crowley can’t choose not to sway his hips like that and lick his mouth with a tongue that seemed purposefully designed to instill sinful thoughts, and - dear God - tilt his head to the side and look at Aziraphale with those inviting, suggestive eyes that always seem to to say come home with me, angel, take my hand and let’s Fall together.

    Vignettes from 6000 years of pining, as told by Aziraphale.

    Summary

    “So my idea, and please don’t dismiss it offhand - ” Aziraphale settles back against the pillows, “I think you should possess me.”

    “That’s a terrible idea,” Crowley says flatly.

    Summary

    He would Fall if he succumbed to this. Demonic temptation or not, Aziraphale was certain this would end him. He couldn’t consent to such an act, couldn’t willingly hand himself over to be despoiled by a fiend.

    Ah, there’s the loophole.

    Summary

    Aziraphale glances down at the macaron in Crowley’s hand - two blush pink biscuits sandwich a layer of swirled white buttercream containing red-pink specks that Aziraphale takes to be pomegranate arils. Crowley places the macaron against Aziraphale’s lips with more reverence than the angel had thought him capable. “It’s alright, angel. Just take a bite.”

    “Is that what you told Eve?”

    “Something like it. It worked, didn’t it?”
