    Summary

    Finally, Aziraphale spoke. “You mean to say— you got us married?”

    “Just as a precaution, I never really thought I’d end up discorporated again, it’d been ages, you just don’t get stampedes or assassinations like you used to —”

    “You got us married, and you didn’t tell me?”

    ***

    Crowley gets inconveniently discorporated. And it’s not like it’s ever been easy to get a new body, but this time around, things really aren’t looking good. His new innuendo-obsessed lust-demon of a coworker honestly isn’t helping things.

    Meanwhile, Aziraphale has a dead body to contend with, and an occult mortician & his very normal daughter to fend off. What lengths will he go to in order to get Crowley back to Earth?

    Summary

    There is very little humour in Prussia’s face, and a lot of ice in his eyes despite the smirk he’s sporting. He drops Arthur’s leg without much care. Arthur feels the dull impact reverberate up his knee and hip. His toe twitches as the heel of his sock starts soaking up the moisture from the ground.

    “I pulled you off a wagon.” Gilbert shares, unprompted. “You’re welcome.”

    A quiet interlude between nations on opposite sides of the war.

    Summary

    The first time Crowley sets foot in the bookshop he freezes on the doorsteps, looks around with wide eyes, and immediately just knows. This is not long after the French revolution business, and while it’s been quite some centuries since he fell, he still remembers this. There is no way he would mistake this.

    Summary

    Visitors to the monastery are rare. Visitors for Aziraphale are doubly so. It's not quite a surprise that the 'visiting knight' is Crowley, but that Crowley brought a gift with him is a shock - especially as the gift is, of all things, a Bible.

    Summary

    To quote directly from the prompt that inspired this:

    Gabriel sensed Aziraphale's feelings for Crowley clear as day during the confrontation at the airbase. Fast forward to the trial in Heaven where he takes "Aziraphale" to task about betraying Heaven and the Great Plan for love of a creature that can't return his feelings.

    Summary

    A fic bingo collection featuring twenty-five, one word prompts. Whole thing is probably best described as "Ineffable husbands stupidity with a hefty dose of gen world building." Summaries for the first thirteen chapters:

    1. Post-Armageddon, Aziraphale hosts two unexpected guests in the shop.
    2. Demons don't take well to pets, much as Crowley might like one.
    3. Five times Aziraphale defended the name "Crowley" and one time his name was spoken back.
    4. Even after 6,000 years they still need a bit of a nudge. Maybe the Bentley can help with that.
    5. After a certain seance Aziraphale is feeling insecure about how much he talks.
    6. Excerpts from A.Z. Fell & Co.'s Yelp page.
    7. Package for Aziraphale, Principality, Guardian of the Eastern Gate.
    8. Aziraphale's molt is upon him. He has to decide what to do with the feathers.
    9. Crowley and an active imagination.
    10. Pepper has some opinions regarding Madame Tracy's new look.
    11. A drunk Aziraphale shows up at Crowley's door.
    12. Wine, a storm, and two distinctly different memories.
    13. There’s one demon in particular who’s interested to know how Crowley survived that bath

    Summary

    “Alright you lot,” the Gardener surveys his charges with a judgmental gaze, “today is the day we’ve been waiting for, that I’ve been waiting for. And I won’t have anyone sticking a leaf out of line.”

    Gardener marched among the greenery like a general preparing them for battle. Not that plants understood such things.

    They did understand that Gardener was anxious, nervous, and possibly, deep down where he’d never admit it, just a little bit scared.

    A scared Gardener was a vengeful Gardener, even the Seedlings knew that.

    ------
    Gardener is acting strangely and all the plants are more terrified than usual.

    Summary

    It is one thing to represent his country in the international arena, to skate with a flag on the side of his skating boots and the ever present tag at the end of his name, Victor Nikiforov of Russia. It's another thing entirely to know that there's a face and a person to the nation, with his own thoughts and wants and neuroses.

    Victor has known the living manifestation of his country, in all its frigid and violent glory, for most of his competitive career.

    Yuuri will meet his after making history upon the ice.

     

    (No knowledge of Hetalia is needed to enjoy this fic, but hopefully fans of APH!Russia and Japan will like how I've written them).

    Summary

    The bite of pancake is delightfully buttery, with a tang from the cheese curds. Yuuri isn't sure what his expression is like, but Victor's smile brightens, and his phone goes up.

    "Say syrniki!"

    That photo's going to end up on Instagram in less than a minute. Yuuri ducks, and when Victor whips his phone to follow, Yuuri grabs Victor's elbow and drags him over so they're both caught in the shot. Victor laughs, a long line of warmth mashed up against Yuuri's side. He tucks his arm around Yuuri's waist and raises his phone again.

    Victor uses variations of the same caption every time: Reexploring St. Petersburg with #katsukiyuuri #oneplateatatime

    "You're ridiculous," Yuuri whispers, after the camera goes off.

    Victor smiles. "Ridiculous, but yours."

     

    (Yuuri has done the transcontinental uprooting of his life twice before and it's never easy, but this time there are photos plastered all over Victor's social media, explorations into Russian cuisine, shenanigans with the Russian figure skating national team, calls and messages from friends and family, and Victor, always.

    Victor, on the other hand, mostly copes by watching Yuuri adapt to life in St. Petersburg).

    Summary

    Despite the fact they've been competing in the same competitions for years, Victor Nikiforov doesn't meet Katsuki Yuuri until the Sochi Grand Prix Final. On the other hand, there's a boy who's been watching him for years and Victor's desperate to know his name.

    In which Victor pines, everybody drinks too much, and Yakov deserves a sainthood for putting up with these idiots. Basically, it's a decade's worth of near misses, misunderstandings, and pure obliviousness.

    Summary

    Viktor is growing old, and his competitors seem to be growing younger and younger. Thus, with every passing year, Viktor finds fewer familiar faces at his Grand Prix banquets, and he wonders whether his attendance has become pointless. What he doesn’t realize, however, is that one unfamiliar, alcohol-reddened face can make the whole night more than worthwhile.
    (A canon-compliant retelling of the banquet in which Viktor falls head-over-heels for a certain drunk, Japanese figure skater, and Yuri Plisetsky is both displeased and incredulous).

    Summary

    Home. Home is Viktor's sparse St. Petersburg apartment, which is now where Yuri keeps his clothes and his toothbrush and his silver medal, which Viktor hung above the fireplace, and his extensive collection of Viktor Nikiforov posters, because Minako had mailed every one of them from Hatsetsu. (Yuri had shoved them into a drawer, but Viktor put some of his favorites on the fridge, next to the photos he'd had printed of Yuri in his juniors costumes.)

    Home, where every time Viktor sees Yuri chattering excitedly to the triplets over Skype or hears Mari complain over the phone about the time difference, he feels guilty for keeping Yuri to himself, as if he's the one stealing Yuri from the world now.

    "What will Viktor Nikiforov's fans say if he falls like that in competition?" Viktor sighs, not moving. "What will his protégée and rival Yuri Katsuki say?"
