    Summary

    “hey, hyung,” jungkook says in a tiny voice into his ear, “how are you? it’s been a minute.”

    “it has, hasn’t it.” it’s been two years, which is not hard to believe, because holy fuck— “you got, um. tall.”

    that’s not really it. jungkook was already taller than yoongi two years ago. and it’s not a drastic change by any means. it’s just that everything about him is… more. yoongi refuses to think of other words for it.

    (or: yoongi comes back to summer camp and finds himself in something of a crisis.)

    Summary

    “Oh, good, you’re both in here. We need to tell you something,” Nina says.

    “Not a good time,” Crowley snaps.

    “I have to agree,” Aziraphale says in alarm, shaking his head. “Now is not the time.”

    “We weren’t really asking,” Nina says, making her way down the stairs. Maggie trails close behind her, following after her and siting down on the couch next to her, brushing shoulders. She smiles sheepishly as Nina gestures to the empty chair in front of them, giving both him and Crowley an expectant look.

    -/-

    Nina and Maggie burst in a few minutes later than originally planned and Crowley gets to talk first.

    Summary

    "I'm in a bit of a pickle, my dear," Aziraphale said over the telephone.

    Crowley was seized by immediate fury. Not even a decade, and they're at it again, he thought viciously. You'd think they'd be embarrassed enough to stay out of things for a few centuries at least, after botching the apocalypse like that.

    "Who's done something to you?" hissed Crowley.

    "Ah," said Aziraphale, in the quiet tone of someone who didn't mean to learn someone else's secrets and was mildly sheepish about it. "This crossword clue -- I'm stuck -- 1980s French fencer, thought you might know. It's eight letters and has a Q in it."

    "Trinquet," Crowley snapped, in the tone of someone who had revealed one of his secrets and was annoyed about it.

    Summary

    "They'll leave us alone. For a bit."

    One year after the Apocalypse-That-Wasn't, Crowley and Aziraphale have settled into a new routine: keeping an eye on supernatural happenings in the world and preventing Heaven or Hell from interfering too much with humanity. It's not a bad job - despite occasional rains of fish - and if there are some unspoken things they really ought to talk about, well, they have all the time in the world now to get around to that, right?

    At least, until the Archangel Raphael turns up on their doorstep looking for help... and it starts to become clear that the world is changing fast, and so are they.

    Or: Crowley and Aziraphale start a detective agency. Shenanigans ensue. Slowburn continues. Apparently, there is plot. I have some thoughts about Heaven, Hell, and humanism. There will be stupid jokes and a healthy sprinkling of angst.
