    Summary

    Aziraphale had always been hesitant to set foot in Crowley's car. The Bentley was more than just an ordinary vehicle to the demon, he knew that much, and he'd be on the receiving end of hard stares if he so much as dropped a crumb on his seat.

    That was why when he found himself essentially caged inside after being drawn to it for comfort after an unexpected heat set in, he was already dreading the look of disappointment Crowley would give him when he found him mucking up his treasured car, turning it into a makeshift nest of all things.

    Summary

    When Aziraphale realizes he's due for another heat, his first instinct is to come to Crowley. He goes to the demon's flat and quickly realizes he's alone, secluding himself in the shower to rinse away his scent till Crowley comes back.

    Summary

    Every night, huddled in whatever doorway, tunnel, or bench he had found, his reluctantly-sentient shopping-trolley standing guard, Aziraphale had the same dream. He did not dream of shooting the boy, Adam, the only thing he knew about himself, his only memory apart from his name. Although that thought haunted his days, it never bothered him at night.

    At night, he dreamed of a garden.

    He stood on some sort of rise, overlooking the garden, lush and green, in a dry and arid place.

    The sight only made him sad.

    It began to rain, and the rain was somehow strange and new.

    Beside him was a fire, a star serpent, a candle.

    Aziraphale unfurled a beautiful, white umbrella to protect the flame from the rain.

    And then he woke to the cold.

    Summary

    “Rosy is lovely! She’s the nicest snake you could ask for. Snakes get a bad reputation but people don’t even give them a chance!”

    “Oh, I’m sure your… Rosy… is a very nice snake. I’ve just always had… well, a thing about them. Are you… Will you be breeding food for her?”

    Crowley, now sullenly tugging the box into his apartment, looked up. “Yeah.”

    “Oh.”

    “Oh for crying out loud, what now?”

    “It’s just… Do you really think it’s a good idea, breeding rodents in an apartment building? I mean, what if they get out?”

    “That’s what this is for.” Crowley looked at him like he was an idiot. “So they don’t get out.”

     
    or
    Aziraphale is outraged when his snake-keeping neighbor allows a rat to escape and it ends up loose in his apartment. When Crowley tries to make it up to him it looks like a relationship could be a real possibility... if only Aziraphale could get over his fear of snakes.

    Basically just ~15k words of these two idiots trying to get to know each other while navigating the terrors of being known, all under the guise of rodent control.

    Summary

    Kyōya left Lumiose a little while after the events of Prism Tower and Hyperspace Lumiose wrapped up, and traveled nonstop for around five years. Now he's back in Lumiose; unannounced, unplanned, and there's not going to be an open room for him at Hotel Z for at least a month. He swings by the Rust Syndicate Office just to see if Corbeau and Philippe have any ideas about cheap, temporary housing, and finds himself (to his immense surprise) invited to stay in Corbeau's guest room until a hotel room opens up for him. It's probably not an issue that he's been hung up on Corbeau for the last five years (and that Corbeau has secretly been hung up on him for the last five years too), right?
