    Summary

    “I think it’s time we try and do the thing,” is what Crowley says, when the words finally wing up out of him one morning.

    “Do what, dear?” Aziraphale asks as he takes a scrubbing brush to the skillet they’d made eggs in. Behind them, Dove is smearing oatmeal and a bit of scramble around her highchair tray, blabbing good-naturedly in her little singsong voice while morning sunlight slants in just enough to make her strawberry hair shine like rose gold.

    “You know,” Crowley grunts, drying an antique porcelain plate with a particular furor that makes it consider breaking, though it wouldn’t dare so much as chip with the angel in the room. “Uh. Try again—for a baby. But swapped ‘round a bit so I do all the cooking.”

    Aziraphale calmly keeps up with his washing, though a little smile plays around his mouth and then gradually grows a bit wider. “Ah,” he says all too knowingly, which makes Crowley’s stomach lurch. “I’d been wondering when you’d feel ready to bring that up again.”

    Summary

    It's sometime later, still dark or maybe dark again, when the door to his flat opens. He wakes, startles, then whimpers. Every tiny movement feels like the knives are still hacking away at him. Where was their cold efficiency then? No, they'd wanted him to suffer. They'd succeeded.

    "Oh." That voice again, and in the room this time. Crowley would weep, but he's not sure when he last stopped. "Oh," Aziraphale says again, "oh, Crowley."

    "They took them," Crowley moans, pitiful even to his own ears. "They took my wings."

    "You're going to be the first of many new things, kiddo."

    Apparently talking to one's gravid stomach was something humans did. Couldn't be much different from screaming at houseplants, and no more difficult.

    “Have we been fools?” Crowley asked.

    “The worst kind.”

    “Oh, I don’t know.” Crowley stood and placed his other hand on Aziraphale’s cheek, forcing his gaze up. “I’ve never had more fun than when I’ve been a fool with you.”

    Summary

    Crowley opens his eyes, breathing a little hard. They stare at each other for a long, terrible moment of silence. Aziraphale blinks again, and then his eyes quizzically go to Crowley’s abdomen.

    “Eggs,” he repeats, like he can’t quite believe it, and then points a finger for clarification. “Inside you?”

    “Yes,” Crowley says miserably, bringing his hands up to his face. “The endless perks of being a bless-ed snake demon. I forgot to banish them away this time, I s’pose. But now they won’t budge.”

    “Ah,” Aziraphale says lightly. And then, with slightly more feeling, “Oh my.”

    “You’re not panicking,” Crowley deadpans, peering between his fingers at the angel. “Why aren’t you panicking?”

    Summary

    It sounds like one of those riddles with no answers, like the fallen tree one, or the heavy boulder. But really, if God is powerful enough to completely rebuild the universe from scratch without Heaven and Hell, does that mean God can’t exist in this universe?

    Well, God loves a good riddle, just as much as She loves playing games with the universe. Any of them.

    And those two lovers gave Her a very interesting one to play.

    What happens when you take a billions year old universe, housing a loving couple just moving into their little cottage, and give them a chance to see who they truly are or were?

    And what happens when who they once were meets who they may or may not become, depending on how the game is played?

    Summary

    "Dunno why, but s'not working this time. M'not resssponding to it." Crowley's eyes flickered with something entirely unreadable. "I need a warm body."

     "I see."

     "Can't even use my fingers properly with these bloody claws. Still, feels better to have something warm, something moving."

     Aziraphale attempted to make sense of Crowley's words, his head pounding viciously. A warm body.

     "Would you like me to... hold you again?"

    Crowley smiled, open-mouthed and beastly. His fangs glistened in the darkness.

    "Need you to fuck me, angel."

    Or: Aziraphale buys Crowley a snake plant, hoping to please Crowley with the appealing smell of its flowers. Its effects on Crowley are far more extreme than Aziraphale anticipated, and it’s down to him to face them head-on.

    Summary

    While pursuing a group of fae hunters they’ve been tracking for ages, baobhan sìth Crowley accidentally steps into an old fox trap concealed in the brush.

    Badly injured, immediately weakened from the iron and soon soaked through due to a wicked thunderstorm, they seek shelter on the steps of a huge, castle-like manor. The door is opened by a kindly looking man with an angelic countenance, and he spares no time in welcoming the wounded fairy into his home, unaware of the fact that Crowley is so desperately in need of feeding they’re considering drastic measures.

    They don’t know that they are just as unaware in the sense of having no idea whom just opened his door to them.

    Summary

    Lonely and listless, Crowley has been wandering the Earth with no contact from Aziraphale for centuries. He is assigned an unusual job by his superiors, tasked with visiting the dwelling of a local holy man which lies in the fringes of a remote desert village. This man accepts one guest - an unbeliever, perhaps, or someone down on their luck - per night into his hut for rituals of private worship. Crowley has been ordered to put a stop to these rituals, which encourage even society's most rejected and unconventional individuals to invite the love of God into their lives, by any means necessary... even if that means smiting the holy man where he stands.

    Under cover of darkness and the anonymity he is afforded by his glasses, Crowley arrives at the hut posing as a human infidel… and finds that the wise man’s methods are far more intimate than he first suspected. Immersing himself in the ritual might just be enough to forget about the angel he’s missing… until he realises that the man behind it is alarmingly angelic himself.

    “Mobius?!”

    “Yeah, yeah, I’m working on it!”

    Loki risked a glance over his shoulder. Mobius had his head bent down as he slapped the TemPad with his palm. They hadn’t even suited up properly. It was only a reconnaissance mission. In and out. See and not be seen.

    Well, that had gone to Hel.

    He’s not sure how he ended up like this, half-leaning against the wall of a little windowed alcove with his hand down the front of Loki’s trousers, but if Loki’s ragged breathing and shaky grip on his forearm are any indication, he must have done something right.
