Summary
The bookstore was an average one—downtown location, classic storefront with gold lettering reading Blackwood Books. The many shelves were packed with what looked to be mainly used books. Large twin windows flanked the green door, and Jon felt their hopes rise at the prominently displayed pride flag.
(Wherein Jon quits his toxic job, part-times at a charming little bookstore, goes on a re-organizing frenzy, and falls in love along the way.)

Summary
Imperceptible to even the keenest ear, four pairs of swift, spindly legs scuttled over a vast white expanse. They carried a bulbous body across mountains of folders and valleys of empty table. It was gargantuan in the terror it engendered, yet miniscule in the mass it commanded. It had four times the eyes any creature ought to possess, and it used those heightened powers of perception to take in the unfathomably large obstacle that stood before it.
It decided that all terrain could be traversed.

Summary
“Why don't we have a magical doorway that permits entry only to the pure of heart?” Cosette leans, more wistfully than the situation calls for, across the counter. “Imagine how much more relaxed our jobs would be.”
“I don't think they would be, given that our alterations tailor wouldn't be able to enter the store anymore,” Éponine says drily, but there's a softness to her tone, so Cosette is still on her good side.
“Montparnasse can use the back door. Or you'll lend him your overcoat; cloak him in goodness.”
Éponine bites back a smile, and it feels like a victory. “I'm sure he'd love that.”(In which Cosette will make sure no one in her bridal boutique is unhappy if it's the last thing she does, Éponine refuses to express an Emotion, and Bahorel has no intentions of bettering himself.)

(A/C)²: the ceiling fan AU by fractalgeometry
Fandom: Good Omens (TV), Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett
03 Apr 2021
Summary
An AU where Aziraphale is a ceiling fan and Crowley is an air conditioner. Consists of lots of banter and softness. Everything in this series will be based around that general idea, though some of the fics might not be connected and may even contradict other fics in the series. Basically, I'm playing in a crack sandbox and will do as I please, and each story should be taken on its own merit. But it will always be comedic and loving, because that's what I love about writing this AU.
