Chapter 4/20: The brother [6k~]

🎄 Read on AO3 🎄

“What I’m trying to say is that… we could have sex. If you are amenable.”

Crowley looked at him as if Aziraphale was an answer to his prayers. And that was a completely new feeling for Aziraphale, who’d never witnessed a man looking at him like that. As if he was ready to devour him.

The hungry expression on Crowley’s face transfigured into a smug one.

“Totally amenable, big fan of amenable, me. Fantastic idea.”

Aziraphale wasn’t sure if Crowley was taking him seriously.

“I’m serious.”

“So am I.” Crowley stared at him with a predatory smile on his face. “Dead fucking serious.”

Secret Santa gift for the lovely @carlitagt featuring her OC Kyokia and Gonta. Based on a true story in my life when I was under the weather. Watching Christmas movies is what the prescription calls for!

PS: It has been a long ass minute since I last did 2-point perspective. XD

No joke, here’s a rough draft of the final illustration. Traditional lines before digital coloring.

This fanfic has now been fully revised and updated with the precious help of my partner in crime @hermiola. (She also made the banner pinned at the end of this post, isn't it cute? 😍)

My deep gratitude also goes to @lutraslutra, the amazing artist who drew this wonderful cover. They always showed such huge appreciation for this story and the way I wrote music into it, and I couldn’t be more grateful for their involvement 💖💖💖

Hermiola and I mainly worked on renewing the writing and the language of the story (which has not changed and stays true to its original plot 100%), but I also wrote a few new (*coughs* smut *coughs*) scenes that you will find:

Chapter 1/20: Roots [3.4k~]

🎄 Read on AO3 🎄

“What the fuck happened, Aziraphale?” Gabriel asked him as soon as he showed up at his door (probably prompted by Rafe’s phone call rather than by Aziraphale texting him to come).

“Are you ok?” Gabriel asked, looking (vaguely yet unexpectedly) interested in his well-being.

Yes, when Aziraphale had woken up that day, he couldn’t have possibly imagined how bad it would turn out to be. As he welcomed Gabriel into his house, he sighed in defeat.

“I’m just tickety-boo.”

Chapter 5/20: The morning after [3.7k~]

🎄 Read on AO3 🎄

Crowley put some space between them, walking backwards in the room until he found himself at the door. “Right. Point taken; no strings attached. If you change your mind, or, or– if you want to go out, have some fun… I’m meeting some friends at the Donkey tonight, and, mghhh. I’ll be there. With them. Right, yeah.”

Aziraphale wondered if Crowley was asking him out of pity or because he sincerely wanted to see him again.

And were that the case, should he consider it a date?

“And, well, if we don’t see each other again, I just wanted to say–” Crowley groaned, struggling to find the right words. “You’re gorgeous, angel.”

Not giving him a chance to reciprocate the compliment, Crowley made his great exit, leaving Aziraphale behind.

“So are you,” he said to an empty kitchen.

🎄 Read on AO3 🎄

Crowley was still positioning himself over the table when he felt Aziraphale’s soft voice close to his ear. “I would have thought you’d go for the black one, seven points would do you good.”

A few things happened at once. Crowley turned his head in shock and at the very same moment he struck; then his cue hit the cue ball so hard that it shot off the table, dragging the green ball with it. Finally, Crowley stumbled on the table himself.

“Foul,” Shadwell announced with a snigger.

“What the fuck, Aziraphale!” Crowley whined.

“Oh, shush, dear. Now, I’ll show you supposedly.”

“Good Lord.” Aziraphale sighed. “But Gabriel… why, oh why for heaven’s sake are you walking around naked carrying a box?!”

Crowley used one hand to hide the huge smile that his angel’s question had brought to his lips.

Fuck, I miss kissing that sharp tongue.

“Az, we’ve got secrets, too,” Beez replied, giggling along with Aziraphale’s brother.

“Anyway, he just got to the door to retrieve a package from a courier.”

“Naked?!” Crowley almost regretted asking, knowing he wouldn’t like the answer.

“The gent was a very open minded courier,” Gabriel reassured them.
