    Summary

    Martin is the proprietor and manager of a very discrete and fairly exclusive brothel situated between Belgravia and Chelsea. Blackwood House excels at special requests and pleasing any client.

    Except for Jon, who probably has never been pleased a day in his entire life.

    Despite that, he still comes back. It eventually begs the question: how do you solve a problem like Jon Sims?

    Summary

    “It’s a preexisting condition,” Jon explains, sipping more bitter tea. “I sort of got—hm. You know Spiderman?”

    Tim raises an eyebrow.

    “Heard of him, yeah.”

    Jon nods, studying his tea.

    “It’s sort of like that,” he says. “A spider killed and ate me when I was a child, and now I can’t stay dead.”

    Summary

    A.Z. Fell and Co. is recommended as a local London bookshop on a Reddit post. Chaos ensues when someone actually takes the recommendation and goes there, only to find that:

    1. They don't get to buy books
    2. The gentle bookshop owner apparently owns a giant python
    And 3. The bookshop owner is 100% in love with his best friend with the sunglasses

    Aziraphale and Crowley both write fanfiction. As it happens, they both write Good Omens fanfiction.

    Of course, neither of them would ever admit this to the other.

    Summary

    CROWLEY: I try not to make a habit of gratitude, but I must give our appreciation to everyone out there who’s been listening and subscribing to The Ineffable Plan.
    AZIRAPHALE: Ooh, yes, we’ve become quite popular, haven’t we?
    CROWLEY: Yeah, just hit number eight on the advice charts … No advertising at all.
    AZIRAPHALE: Mm. How … miraculous.
    CROWLEY: … Aziraphale. You did not.

     

    ***

    Crowley and Aziraphale are very possibly the people least qualified, on the entire planet, to start up an advice podcast.

    But what else is there to do when the world isn’t ending anytime soon, you’re technically on indefinite sabbatical from your lifelong careers, and you need a plausible excuse to spend more time with your best friend who you’re definitely not, absolutely not, maybe just a little, actually maybe overwhelmingly in love with?

    Summary

    As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:

    --His clothing was expensive and stylish;
    --He wore very strange but noticeable cologne;
    --His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
    --He looked angry;
    --He was wearing sunglasses.

    What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?

    ARCHIVIST: And you are?

    THE BLOOD GOD: I’m—

    ARCHIVIST: No, wait! Let me guess. Coast of Maine. Lighthouse. You’re not an avatar of the Lonely, are you?

    THE BLOOD GOD: Nah.

    ARCHIVIST: Right, of course not. You just like the vibe, I guess. It’s a good vibe! Who doesn’t like a haunted lighthouse? Or lobster rolls? Or fishing boats. Is that your trawler?

    THE BLOOD GOD: You were guessin’ my name?

    ARCHIVIST: Right, yeah, just messing with you. You’re Technoblade, right? Avatar of the Hunt?

    THE BLOOD GOD: Yooo. In the flesh.

    ARCHIVIST: Eyyy! Ha ha, good one. Is your name really Technoblade?

    THE BLOOD GOD: Closest phonetic translation. You did more research than the last guy.

    ARCHIVIST: Shucks, man, thanks. I try. The tusks—er, fangs? Canines?—were kind of a giveaway. And the hair.

    THE BLOOD GOD: The hair?

    ARCHIVIST: Some statements mention that you bottle dye it.

    THE BLOOD GOD: Ah.

    Summary

    The Emperor has called for necromancers; the best of the best. Every good necromancer needs a swordsman. It's a shame not many of them survived the trip over—but sometimes you've got to make do with what you've got.

    Walking the path to immortality isn't an easy process. Uncovering the identity of a shadowy murderer isn't much better. The basement is full of ghosts, hands are crawling from the walls, and terrible secrets are hiding in each and every room.

    ...Thomas really should have gone to that wedding while he still had the chance.

    Summary

    During a conversation with Vickie, Robin decides to start using Steve as her beard and sure, lying to her parents is great, and she doesn't mind Hawkins thinking she's getting it on with Steve Harrington, but then lovable, idiotic Steve decides it's a great idea to carry on the lie to Eddie to make him jealous. Robin has had enough of her platonic soulmate being this fucking stupid, but sure, whatever, it'll work out in the end, it always does with Steve.

    “Should I — like, go?” Eddie stares at them, still lifting up the duvet so cold air is getting on Robin’s thighs, she curls her toes under the shins of the massive fucking idiot next to her. “If you guys wanna —?”

    Eddie, Robin thinks, is probably the only person they should tell about the whole fake part of their relationship. Eddie, Robin thinks, is probably the only other person in the world who would’ve even volunteered to be her beard. Eddie, who they share a bed with when they’re drunk like this, is the last person they need to start lying to but for some reason Steve has decided they need to defend themselves against Eddie and Robin can only stare at Steve and think "why him, why is he your soulmate?"

    Summary

    Everyone's moved away from Hawkins, it's just Eddie and Steve and Keith (of all people). The kids don't have time to be calling their old babysitters while they're off living their lives, and Robin keeps calling and urging them to move, to come and see her and get the fuck out of Hawkins. It takes Keith running to Oklahoma and a Blondie song to get Steve on the move.

    “Keith is leaving. He’s going to fucking Oklahoma for a managerial position at fucking Family Video. That is an objectively shit life, serving the gods of Family Video, right? But if I stay here in fucking Hawkins Family Video, I’m doing worse than Keith!” He runs a hand through his hair. Eddie’s face is bewildered and oil spattered. “Keith is getting out. I’ll be fucking dead before Keith leaves me to rot here like everyone else. We are going on the road, Eddie.”

    “The road?” Steve thinks his tone is sounding more awed than confused now, like Steve is some fascinating species from D&D he absolutely needs to know everything about, right now. It’s been a long time since Eddie’s looked like that.

    “Your band. We’ll kidnap Gareth, community college makes him depressed he’ll get over it.” He waves a hand.

    Summary

    1996: ten years after Steve left Hawkins, and his dad has just opened the new music label and wants Steve to run it for him. Steve finds he has a peculiar obsession with metal artists who don't wear much except glitter (he just wants to keep the feel of the record label young, is all). He's invited wedding for a reunion, he finally sees faces he's fallen out of touch with.

    Rock and roll, new wave, alternative rock shit, whatever glam metal is. Guys with big painted eyes and fluffy hair and sexual proclivities that are going to make his dad call him up and ask if it’s really a good direction for the label. Fuck the old guys, let’s rock out whatever the fuck, it’s just a good marketing line. More youth, like no one above forty, thanks, no country “I hate my wife and I hate gun laws, yahoo freedom shit”, it’s old, it’s done.

    “I want something fun,” he tells Lisa. “Something young and… cool. You’re younger than me, who’s cool but underground enough that they won’t already have a label.”

    “I like the Pop Top 40 same as you,” she says, pursing her lips at him. “Why don’t you just send some minions out to a student bar and grab the first man wearing glitter?”

    Summary

    He pictures the funeral sometimes.

    He pictures someone he doesn’t know saying Viktor’s name wrong. He pictures screaming in public. He pictures stealing the ashes and keeping them in a protein powder container because it’s the only vessel big enough. He pictures lying in those ashes like a widow bird. He pictures baking the ashes into bread and feeding them to pigeons in the park.

    He pictures swallowing them himself.

     

    Or: When Viktor chooses a quiet death, Jayce learns how to love him to the edge of the end and carry what’s left through the sad art of letting go.
