    Summary

    “Alright, explain it to me, O Angel of the Lord,” Crowley snapped. “Tell me how exactly I’ve been going too fast after six bloody millenia.”
    “I wanted to take your offer!” Aziraphale exclaimed, stepping forwards. “Of course I did. But it was the wrong time, everything was wrong, and I had just given you a— a suicide pill, Crowley, and I couldn’t be the reason you stopped existing.” He blinked back the sudden flood of tears. “Please believe me. It was never my intention for my words to hurt you.”
    There was a beat of stunned silence.
    Then Crowley spoke. “I believe you, angel,” he said, his voice unexpectedly soft.

    OR: two times after 1967 that they finally went at the right speed. Chapter 1 (1977) is full of angst and yearning and UST, Chapter 2 (2027) is just self-indulgent spicy fluff.

    Summary

    It should have been easy enough to shrug off, once they awoke on the changelings' planet and knew none of the preceding events had taken place, but the thing about it was,

     

    the thing was, thought Julian,

     

    the thing:

     

    Julian braced himself against the wall, shaking. The thing was: he saw Garak die.

    Summary

    “So, what’re you actually proposing here, Dean?” Bobby asked, greying eyebrows raised.

    “I’m suggesting we watch the preview before we buy the movie,” Dean snarked.

    Castiel’s look of confusion only deepened and, for once, Sam was right there with him. “…You know, skip a few chapters in the book. Check out the dessert menu before ordering dinner. I mean, if Zachariah can show us where the future’s heading, why not Cas?”


    Dean's not thrilled about Sam's plan to say, "Yes," to the Devil and spend an eternity in the pit, so he proposes taking a road trip 15 years in the future to see how it all works out in the aftermath of the Apocalypse.

    Sam had thought he was prepared for what awaited him in the future, but a pregnant fiancé, a human Castiel, and a married Dean were more than he'd been expecting.

    Summary

    And Stefon is still giving Seth that look. He’s seen it a million times before on the show, outside of the show, really anywhere and anytime they’re together Stefon gives Seth this look. And every time Seth just rolls his eyes, pushes it aside. Marks it off as just Stefon trying to get a rouse out of him. But tonight that look felt like it was eating him from the inside out.

    What starts as a simple conversation about the darkness of ones soul quickly turns into the best game of Chicken Seth has played since high school.

    Summary

    "We can't date each other," Stefon protests. "We just spent the entire night talking about how fucked up we both are and how neither of us has ever had a healthy relationship."

    "So we'll be friends," Seth offers.

    Stefon gives him a disbelieving look. "You really think we can just be friends?"

    "There's no 'just' about it. Being friends is good - great, even."

    Stefon still looks hesitant, but after a moment, he nods. "Fine. We'll be friends."

    Summary

    I wrote this back in 2020 and never posted it, and after rereading it now post S2 and realizing how delightfully in character it was, I am deciding to share.

    post-armageddidnt, Aziraphale gets hurt and has to heal up the good old-fashioned way. Crowley is delighted by modern medicine.
