    Summary

    The first time Aziraphale went into the dance hall, it was only for a quick drink to end the night. He caught sight of Crowley in a dark corner, lounged across a cushioned chair. A tall gentleman leaned over her body then, lighting her cigarette with the tip of his cigar. His hands were pressed on either side of her torso, and his eyes burned into hers.
    Aziraphale left immediately.
    He went back a week later, and he would not admit the reason why.

    (Crowley is thriving in the early 20th Century. Aziraphale is having a bit of a harder time adjusting.)

    Summary

    She takes a step into the light, a vision of red and black, of scant fabric and edges, seizes him in her gaze, which he realizes is almost as fiery as her hair, and drags it up and down his form, once, before she grins. “Oh angel, let me guess, you probably think tartan is stylish?”

    “Tartan is stylish,” Aziraphale automatically protests, before his brain slowly catches up with his mouth. And his eyes. “Oh, how impolite of me! Please do come in. You must be drenched.”

    (Crowley just lost her job selling cosmetics to bored rich housewives. Aziraphale is a bored rich bastard in want of a nanny for the neighbor kid he has to babysit. It's a right place, right time situation. Right people, too.)

    Summary

    The cigarette burns slow between Crowley’s fingertips. The taste of smoke in his mouth drags memories from his lungs, dusty as ash and cold as. The church opposite is grey with it, too—the build-up of centuries, the soot and stain of humanity blackening its very foundations.

    He would have hated this building, Crowley thinks, looking up at the spire, piercing white and imposing. He’d have liked the pub better.

    Summary

    In which temptations are accomplished, grand romantic gestures are made, and two ineffable co-stars only take four seasons of an award-winning television program to realize they’re on their own side (at last, at last.)

    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?
