    Summary

    “You implied earlier that you are unhappy," said Maleficent. "I don’t know to what extent you’re aware, but I am a rather powerful sorceress. If you were to set me free, there is little I could not give you in return for your mercy.”

    Briar Rose’s eyes flickered down to the chains on Maleficent’s wrists, and then back up to those dark, dancing eyes, and for one wild moment, anything seemed possible.

    Summary

    “My plan was quite simple,” said Maleficent. “I would have you wonder, instead, at the machinations of your three fairy guardians. It was they who hid you here in plain sight, they who told you nothing of the world, of your fate.” She scoffed. “I could have crushed you like an insect. I could have bent you to my will in the span of an hour.”

    Briar Rose looked up at her, frightened but resolute. “Then why didn’t you?”

    Summary

    As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:

    --His clothing was expensive and stylish;
    --He wore very strange but noticeable cologne;
    --His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
    --He looked angry;
    --He was wearing sunglasses.

    What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?

    Summary

    Crowley didn't look up immediately when he heard the shop door open; he was just in the middle of finishing off a complicated bouquet, and the blasted ribbon was being difficult about things.

    "Just a sec," he said, scowling as the end slipped away from him again.

    There was a pause. And then a voice, softly, "There you are."

    An unusual customer walks into Anthony Crowley's flower shop with a very specific request. AU, series, complete, angst with a happy ending.

    (Series Summary: For three centuries, Crowley has been reincarnated over and over as a human with no memory of his past. Aziraphale has tried to find a way to restore him to his true self, but all he seems to do is hurt them both. This time, he only means to steal a brief moment when he walks into Crowley's flower shop. But Crowley can't let it go...)

    Summary

    For a moment the house became brighter, more inviting. For a moment it almost felt like Mrs. Danvers was showing off a house that belonged to her, like Mr. de Winter did not exist, like she and Rebecca had returned from overseas together to the place they would share for the rest of their lives. And for a moment, everything was as it should be. For a moment, they were home.
