    Summary

    “Welcome home, Aziraphale,” the Metatron said warmly. White light, pure and brilliant, cleansing, flooded his vision as the elevator doors opened.

    Should home feel like a battlefield?

    — — —

    Aziraphale dives right into the work associated with being Heaven’s new Supreme Archangel, ignoring his fragile emotional state and hoping to make change that will benefit everyone: the humans, the other angels, and, most importantly, Crowley. When the Metatron begins to share plans for the Second Coming with him, he realizes it may take more than kindly-worded notes to protect all that he loves. Meanwhile, Crowley tries to find solace in whiskey, pain, and destruction. They both have a lot to learn, and, if Heaven has their way, not much time left in which to learn it.

    Summary

    Somewhere in the South Downs, there is a house for sale. The road turns to cobblestones on the way to it, and the driveway twists around a pond, a field, an overgrown orchard, and two fox dens before arriving at the tree-blanketed entrance. Abandoned years ago, the house desperately needs repair: the roof leaks, the wallpaper is peeling off in patches, the floorboards have twisted with the dampness of the springtimes, the kitchen tap never fully turns off. The house doesn’t know it, but it’s waiting for a certain buyer, one who will stumble upon it, cursing the cobblestones for roughing up his tires, squinting through dark glasses at its facade before deciding: it could work. They could find peace there.
