Summary
When Guillermo makes it back home. And he’s human, and empty, and he can see the pale sunlight from the windows (he should really cover them again). And he’s alone, and it’s quiet, so quiet that he can hear his own heartbeat, the heartbeat that wasn’t there before, and he can feel the beard on his face, and he can hear his breath, soft, soft.
When he makes it back home, to his little room covered in pillow feathers, he sits on his cot, takes off his glasses, puts his head in his hands and he cries.
...Or Guillermo didn't like being a vampire and so he promptly goes into an existential crisis.

Summary
They save the world. And only now that the dust is settling, now that they are not about to die in the next ten minutes. Only now, Crowley finally allows both his mind and eyes to wander to him, to the angel who is standing on his right, like he always used to, like he still belongs there. And considers the thought that he’d been avoiding for days: Aziraphale is back, back for the first time in three years, and while that may be exactly what Crowley desperately longed for, he somehow finds it deeply unsettling.
Or Crowley spent 6000 years wooing Aziraphale to no avail because when he was brave and confessed, the angel broke his heart and left for Heaven. But now, three years later, the world is safe for good and Aziraphale is back. Crowley, however, has given up because he doesn’t know where they stand anymore, and he honestly cannot deal with another heartbreak. That’s okay, because now Aziraphale seems to be more than willing to do the wooing.

Summary
“Vampiric transformations vary from person to person” Nadja said to the camera. She was sitting on the couch in the fancy room.
“Or from vampire to vampire” commented Laszlo, sitting next to her. “There are different kinds. Mine was just the usual. My Nadja took my blood and gave me hers. All in all, it took mere hours. By the time my would-be lady-wife had to leave me to hide from the sun, it was already done and we shared a coffin in the morning”.
--
Of course, the whole Vampiric Council thing was a trap. It had been obvious in retrospect. And the fact that Guillermo hadn’t seen it coming from a mile away meant that spending so much time with the vampires was lowering his IQ.

Listen we need more Guillermo gets turned fics. I give you my humble attempt. Set somewhere in the middle of season 3. -

Care and Keeping of Freshly Retired Journalists by hummingbeeoOo

Summary
“You’re shitting me!” Daniel looks positively gleeful.
“I am not.”
“This is awesome. Fucking Florida.”
“Mm. We should go there in the summer. Revisit our island,” Armand suggests romantically.
“Yeah, sounds great, babe. Milan, 1641—”
“I think I’ve just isolated the root cause of your two divorces.”
“Ha-ha, nice try, asshole, we both know it was you. So anyway, Milan.”
“Milan,” Armand sighs his surrender, though does not stop the light smile from curling up in the corners of his lips.
Or: freshly retired from journalism (and life), Daniel needs enrichment; Armand lovingly puts up with the results.

Summary
Armand picks up the bag and upends it over the bed; he picks out the antibiotics and deposits the eight boxes in Daniel’s lap.
“What the fuck…”
“These are all different — which ones seem best suited to your predicament?”
“Predica— oh my god, man, you can’t be for real!”
Armand frowns. “Daniel, please. This is serious.”
“I mean… it’s really not.”
“Blood poisoning is, in fact, extremely serious, beloved. Now please, tell me, which of these should you take?”
“Uh, these are all pretty strong, I don’t need any of these.”
“Yes, you do.”
“It’s not healthy to take antibiotics for no reason!”
Looks like Armand will have to crush the pills into his food.
Or: Armand, the plagues and the wonders of medicine. And Daniel. So much Daniel.

Summary
“But you admit it! You did tempt me!”
“I offered you warm food during a storm,” Crowley argues. “If you call that temptation, I’d hate to see you talk to an innkeeper.” Aziraphale scowls some more. Crowley shrugs. “Besides, no harm done. You seem to be enjoying yourself.”
He has Aziraphale there. “Still,” he says, spreading his hands wide. “It has to be said—” He glances up to the sky. “—for anyone listening, that I am not at fault for my appetite.”
“Never said you were,” Crowley says. “Just said you liked the oysters.”
or, an examination vis-à-vis food and forgiveness
