#ineffabletragedythursday

[0ldstoneface]

In the light of the morning star

Long before he became the cynical demon Crowley, Kokabiel had been a starry-eyed angel. But faced with the biggest disappointment of his life, there is only one person he can turn to.

This fic was written both for the Rare Omens event 2026 "Crowley + Lucifer" and for the Do It With Style event "Maggie's Record Shop" and was inspired mainly by the song "I Won’t Say (I’m In Love)" by Susan Egan but also by "Ravens in the library" by S J Tucker.

Because we all know what happens next, it also qualifies for the Tragedy Thursday of the Ineffable Countdown, thank you @maidenimage for organising it!

Thanks a lot to @angie-words, @bohoteacher and @sakascal for beta reading it ❤️

HAPPY (?)

Tragedy Thursday

...okay so maybe "happy" is the wrong word here. I don't often have content that fits "tragedy" but I do today! Here is chapter 2 of my fic "Scar-Crossed Lovers," as part of the @do-it-with-style-events's "Maggie's Record Shop."

This chapter is hella angsty. Proceed with caution!
