Summary
Fresh off a bitter divorce, Aziraphale fabricates a perfect marriage to get hired at a wedding magazine—just a stepping stone on the way to his dream career. It's a foolproof plan, until he needs to produce said husband for the magazine's annual couples retreat.
Enter Crowley, his best friend's mysterious cousin, who agrees, for his own reasons, to play fake husband for a week—no strings attached, no messy complications.
One problem: the more Aziraphale discovers about the real man behind the act, the less fake his feelings become.
Aziraphale thought the hardest part would be fooling everyone else…

The idea came to me one particularly chilly evening, with the sort of contentment brought by the warmth of a roaring fire and the pleasant glide of Holmes’ bow upon his violin.
(Watson schemes to give Holmes a gift. He enlists the help of Mrs Hudson.)

Summary
Sherlock had never understood the saying of someone “wearing their heart on their sleeve” until he’d met Doctor John Hamish Watson and the constant, sticky stain of affection that he wore day in, day out. John’s heart oozes with his feelings for the world around him and the people who live in it.
It had been unsettling when they’d first met, just how messy John had been with it all – mess wasn’t something that Sherlock had been accustomed to.
Now, he couldn’t picture a life without it.

Summary
Over the past 500 years, Aziraphale had noticed that his hearing was changing. At first it had been subtle, missing little snippets of conversation, and then people turned muffled, their words mumbling together to Aziraphale, like their speech was foggy mist.
At age 6052, Aziraphale lost his hearing for good.

Summary
“Why would you do that? He has a destiny.”
“He has free will,” Crowley said finally. Crowley was quite proud of free will. After all, it was his greatest achievement. “All this talk of destiny was keeping him from the one thing the kid actually wants.”
“Which is?” Aziraphale asked.
“Love,” Crowley shrugged, and Aziraphale felt his grace (or something that felt a lot like grace but might in fact be something a little more human) swell inside him.
****
Aziraphale and Crowley meet Achilles and Patroclus, and consider the grip of destiny and free will.
You don't have to have read SOA to understand the fic, but if you haven't read it yet why are you wasting time reading this?! Go read it now. My heart.
