Summary
"I'm in a bit of a pickle, my dear," Aziraphale said over the telephone.
Crowley was seized by immediate fury. Not even a decade, and they're at it again, he thought viciously. You'd think they'd be embarrassed enough to stay out of things for a few centuries at least, after botching the apocalypse like that.
"Who's done something to you?" hissed Crowley.
"Ah," said Aziraphale, in the quiet tone of someone who didn't mean to learn someone else's secrets and was mildly sheepish about it. "This crossword clue -- I'm stuck -- 1980s French fencer, thought you might know. It's eight letters and has a Q in it."
"Trinquet," Crowley snapped, in the tone of someone who had revealed one of his secrets and was annoyed about it.
An account pertaining to the cultivation of figs, the ecstasy of St. Theresa of Avila, the ontological uncertainty of mammoths, the nature of temptation, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and the ten years following the end of the world.

Summary
"“D'you remember your first kiss?”
She’s not really sure what dredged up the new topic of conversation. Just something not-work and non-important.
“Yeah,”
Vague. She’s not sure what she expected.
“Well?”
“‘Well’ what?” Hardy answered, accent getting rougher the way it did when the thought he was being asked a stupid question.
“How was it, who was it with?”
“It was with Tess. 'Was good.”
“With Tess?” she stops to consider if she’s ever heard him mention another anyone, “That's a bit boring.”
“Mm,” he didn’t bother refuting her comment."
It's late at night and Ellie and Alec are awake. They end up discussing their first kisses.

Summary
Aziraphale allowed himself a moment's respite from his conundrum to enjoy the first hit of the nicotine and made sure his precious fiery charge was safely within the protection of his umbrella. Somewhere to his left, the dull thumping of some modern-day bebop announced that Soho's immortal nightlife had woken up.
So now. Back to his dilemma.
The Tesco Metro had those very nice salmon and lemon fishcakes on offer this week; Sainsbury's Local had delicious chicken samosas every Thursday and they might even be half price by now seeing how late it'd gotten.

Anthony J. Crowley, a Mancunian drag queen, voguing pro, knitting amateur, and mother at the House of Gaia shares a tired cigarette with a hungry, snobby tailor whose shop is only just off Savile Row, thank you, one rainy night in Soho in 2008. They run into each other over and over again until they can’t help but become friends and soft and each other’s most significant other and a whole load of other things too, really.About belonging and acceptance and figuring out how to make things work at a place in your life you never really thought you’d be at.
