    Summary

    To see thee here / thou noble thing, more dances my rapt heart / than first when I my wedded mistress saw / bestride my threshold.
    - Coriolanus, Act IV, Scene V.

    1592: Some time after their disasterous meeting during the writing of Henry VI part II, Kit finds himself in need of a place to stay. Will has a room, and a bed that's large enough for two. Neither are very good at making the smart decision, but smart decisions rarely make for interesting stories.

    Summary

    Lois grew up knowing her father had bigger issues in his mind than his two daughters. She herself had bigger issues in her mind. Then she married Superman.

    A character study of Lois and abandonment issues. Definitely heavy on Clois but it is, at its core, about Lois Lane.

    Summary

    "It was no more than three months after the Smoke Bandit case and Barron’s strange demise, and Madame Storey’s mood was becoming a concern. I had never seen her in such a state: it was discreet, but unmistakable. After weeks of observing the subtle signs, I had to conclude, making good use of my professional skills, that my employer was suffering from melancholia."

    When an old friend of Madame Storey calls, asking her to prevent a murder, she and Bella must go undercover to investigate at the mansion of rich playboy Roderick Burn. But not everything is as it seems... Disguises, past loves and a devilish monkey might help reveal more than criminal intentions, this time.

    Summary

    5+1 Times Crowley Rescued Aziraphale According to the Romantic Tropes of the Era, and One Time Aziraphale Turned It Around on Him (plus Prologue)

    Let's be real, the Bastille was definitely not the only time Aziraphale "Swooning Maiden" Ziraphale got Anthony "Just Wants to Get to Be the Hero" Crowley to rescue him. Here is an utterly self-indulgent selection of further rescues through the ages, complete with 16th-century literary tropes and everyone involved being a complete dork, because I'm writing the fanfiction I want to see in the world.

    Fic is pre-written, and a chapter will be posted every Friday!
