    Summary

    The vampire's eyes are wide and round, full of amazement. They dart wildly around the sights below, as if trying to see everything at once. The lights of the city reflect upon his face, soft shadows dancing across his elegant features. The very tips of his fangs are visible from his parted lips.

    The radiance of the city pales in comparison.

    ✧・゚: *✧・゚:* ✧・゚: *✧

    Two months after the brain falls, Baldur's Gate has picked up most of the pieces. The heroes that saved Faerûn have been there through most of it, helping the city get back on its feet. But now it's time to move on. Old lives and families to return to. Gale is going back to his tower in Waterdeep, back to the quiet, back to being alone; or at least, that was the plan. But plans change.

    This is a story about falling in love.

    Summary

    It was a truth universally acknowledged that an angel in possession of no memory must be in want of a wife.

    No, that was the wrong book. The wrong line. Aziraphale frowned.

    “What,” the gentleman before him asked, “and I mean what, are you doing here?”

    -----------------

    Or, two years after things fall apart, Aziraphale shows up at Crowley's doorstep without his memories. The easy part is getting it back, the hard part is getting them back together.

    (Update: now featuring a cover by the wonderful @ineffableclassics!)

    Summary

    Charles tried to pay attention, because Edwin was really upset, and Charles still didn’t understand why, and it seemed like this might be important. It was just, they’d been at this for a while, and Edwin kept asking him the same questions and not leaving him time to answer, so. His mind may have wandered a bit to how he would reinforce the next cricket bat.
    His attention snapped back to the present when Edwin said, “This can’t happen. You can’t risk this, I can’t be the reason you risk it. You have to move on.”
    “Move on?” Charles repeated blankly. “Move on from what?”
    “From here, Charles!” Edwin shouted, suddenly furious again, suddenly shouting even though his eyes were filled with tears. “You have to go with Death! You have to leave!”
    “I don’t want to go with Her,” Charles said, nonplussed.
    “Fine, that’s your business, but you can’t keep hanging around me!” Edwin snapped.
    Charles’ world suddenly tilted on its axis, sending everything askew. “I can’t?” he asked, his voice small, his heart wide open and exposed.

    Summary

    Edward, Stede thinks, examining the man laying on the bed. He looks for all the world like a fearsome outlaw, which makes the failed robbery all the more confusing to Stede, but there’s a vulnerability in his sleeping face that tugs on his heartstrings. Stede’s always been a bit of a sucker for a stray. He attributes it to being a bit of a stray himself.

    Edward looks tired. Really tired, more than just the wound would justify.

    Perhaps he can get some rest here. Perhaps Stede can help with that, at least.

     

    In which notorious outlaw Edward Teach and his band of miscreants are taken in by kindly ranch owner Stede Bonnet and his misfit crew of semi-reformed criminals.

    AKA the cowboy au no one asked for but I desperately want. Yeehaw.
