    Summary

    “James Fitzjames,” he says, thrusting his hand between them, securing the introduction before the man can wander out of his sight just as soon as he’s appeared.
    “Francis Crozier.” The man shakes his hand with a firm grip. Crozier? It sounds familiar, but James cannot place it.
    “What brings you to Greenhithe?” James asks. Crozier merely shakes his head.
     
    Except its 1851, and James and Francis both feel a strange, strong sense of deja vu

    It doesn't mean anything.

    And they don't fit into each other's lives.

    And it definitely won't happen again.

    Summary

    Aziraphale is not built for administration.

    He is informed of this in clever language in the letter he received this morning, although he has known it for years. He is only surprised the bureaucracy of the city has taken so long to catch up to him.

    Somewhere in Nevaeh, there is a room. It is mostly dark, and damp, and dreary, and were it not for the row of plants on the windowsill, it would be quite intolerable indeed.
    There is a person inside this room, who is meant to be deprived of all earthly comforts, who is meant to take on all the suffering of the city, and without him, the great white towers of the city would surely topple into the sea.

    That's what everyone outside the room believes, anyway.

    Although the new guard, Aziraphale, has his doubts.

    They begin the moment the man behind the door begins to tell him a story.

    Summary

    There were all these little hopes and musings Crowley buried so deep in his heart it ached to bring them out into the light to catalogue their faults and flaws, and each time Aziraphale sought him out, or asked his opinion on some weighty manner that was hanging on him, or even just smiled, those little wishings grew bigger and bigger, pressing in on him until he felt as if he was being crushed.

     

    “Princes do not fall in love with gardener boys,” he told himself one night, staring into the shard of looking glass he kept on a shelf, hoping it would help, hoping that hearing it out loud would make him believe it, would help him put all these ridiculous notions behind him.

     

    It didn't work.

     

    Crowley and Aziraphale, the gardener's boy and the prince, meet as children and develop an unlikely friendship.

    By the time they're twenty, everything has changed.

    Summary

    Ed likes the idea of being first to show him this.
    Really likes.

    Because the thing is, Stede doesn’t hide anything, ever. Man’s so guileless he’d tell anyone anything, nothing to keep to himself, no reason to. Stede doesn’t have need to lie. When Stede likes something, his whole damn face lights up.
    He’s gonna like this.
