Meanwhile the World Goes On by lineslines
Fandoms: Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett, Good Omens (TV)

Summary
Crowley looked at him. He was still wearing his suit, there was tartan in it, but it had become polished, the worn edges returned to pristine, boring perfection. He looked too prim. Proper. Perhaps this hurt most of all.
(Crowley is on earth, Aziraphale is not. Meanwhile the world goes on. Plans, great and possibly ineffable, are set into motion. They are--always, inevitably--drawn back together. Long before reconciliation, long before they can bear it. The only thing they can bear less is staying apart.
Oh, and Heaven seems to have misplaced Jesus.)
[NOTE: The fic status is complete, but the last 4 chapters were released as snippets and notes. There IS a satisfying ending here, if you want to get to it.]

Summary
It is a regular occurrence that Sherlock Holmes pleasures himself in the privacy of his bedroom. It is a much rarer - exceedingly rare - perhaps singular - occurrence that John Watson walks in on him. And then is on him. And in him. And after that? Leave it to Holmes.

Sherlock Holmes and the Beheaded Bicycleman by lineslines

Summary
“You don’t think a headless apparition is at fault, do you?”
The look he gave me would have been answer enough, but Sherlock Holmes is not always a bottomless well of restraint. “Watson,” he said with the patience of a school teacher about to snap but smiling through it, “let us – first – rule out – the impossible.”
“Whatever remains must be the truth,” I said faithfully, and smiled, which mellowed his features instantaneously. He sucked on the pipe as if his life depended on it.
“Precisely, my Boswell. Precisely.” -
Your Declaration Returned by lineslines for Nuthatch_in_a_Nutshell

Summary
Sherlock Holmes has been a dire critic of the romantic for as long as I have known him. For almost as long, I had first suspected and soon confirmed that beneath his veneer there slumbered secret affections, have ever since known his heart to be as grand and soft as his detection skills are precise. For going on three decades, I have been romantically involved with him, and thus might consider myself the authority on Holmes and the romance he contains in bounds.
On the matter I might declare: Sherlock Holmes claims he is no romantic. Evidence points to the contrary.

Summary
His leg, below the table, crept unassumingly forward and sideward until it bumped against a shin. At this, Sherlock fixated his attention back on him at last, mouth opening into a perfect circular shape in theatrical surprise.
"Ah! I have no time for such fancies to-day." He waved his hand dismissively.
Watson, defeated before the attack, gave a sympathetic roll of his eyes. "Very well."
(In which Watson makes an advance, is rebuffed, and still gets what he wants. In which Sherlock pursues various studies.) -

style, flair, and a head of red hair – she’s the nanny?! by lineslines
Fandoms: Good Omens (TV), Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett
16 Feb 2024

Summary
She takes a step into the light, a vision of red and black, of scant fabric and edges, seizes him in her gaze, which he realizes is almost as fiery as her hair, and drags it up and down his form, once, before she grins. “Oh angel, let me guess, you probably think tartan is stylish?”
“Tartan is stylish,” Aziraphale automatically protests, before his brain slowly catches up with his mouth. And his eyes. “Oh, how impolite of me! Please do come in. You must be drenched.”
(Crowley just lost her job selling cosmetics to bored rich housewives. Aziraphale is a bored rich bastard in want of a nanny for the neighbor kid he has to babysit. It's a right place, right time situation. Right people, too.)

Aziraphale becomes a Bishop. When Crowley inevitably enters his peaceful, precious fake-human existence, they soon find themselves blurring the lines between themselves and the masks they have chosen to wear.

Summary
“Ohh,” Aziraphale hummed, suppressing a moan, “these oysters really are remarkable. If you do try one, Crowley, then do it here. Of course–” he considered, his head tilting back again, thrice now, and smacked his lips, “–nothing afterwards will compare. You’ll be ruined forever.”
Oh, he had a feeling he was ruined forever in more ways than one.

[This is a universe in which they've been fucking for millennia - but never outright, always under the veneer of false pretense. When Aziraphale encounters Crowley in Rome, the demon's remarks about the invigorating qualities of oysters provide a welcome excuse, indeed. You know what they say about oysters.]Series

chocolates, honey by lineslines

Summary
“Honey,” he murmured as he pulled back, and Aziraphale blinked dreamily.
“Yes?”
“N-not you,” Crowley stuttered, embarrassed but amused, and then had an idea. He reached for the chocolates. Unwound the string, and took one out. It was pretty, delicate: a light brown with dark chocolate drizzle, a dash of gold dust, and a filling of creamy ganache. Marc de Champagne .
The angel licked his hungry lips, again, and Crowley held the práline out to him. Aziraphale took it with his mouth, and bit off half of it, and, oh satan, held eye contact the entire time. He chewed, taking his time, and swallowed.
“Scrumptious,” he said, and then pushed Crowley’s arm towards the demon’s own face. “Try it.”
“Me?”
(This is a universe in which they've been fucking for millennia, but never outright: always under the veneer of false pretense.)
