    Summary

    Back before the Creation of Man, before the Garden, there was the Fall.
    The Fall was lead by Lucifer, the First of the Fallen, God’s Favorite, King of Hell, and is destined to spawn the Destroyer of Mankind.
    Thinking back to these events, Crowley sighs. He was so productive back then. What happened?

    (Of course he knew what happened. A little angel happened. Was it in God’s Ineffable Plan that a measly Principality would one day have the Devil himself wrapped around his pinky finger?)
    (Perhaps so.)

    Summary

    The first time Raphael wept was when he was brought low — wings smoldering and broken but whole — on the burning shores of the Lake of Fire. The tears fell from his eyes, rolled down his fevered, soot-smudged face, hissed out into steam before they could even touch the ground. He had never cried before- he had never known that he could. But then again such sorrow, too, had become known to him only then, upon his Fall. He had never felt pain of any sort before he hurtled downward for what felt like forever, disgraced and suddenly imperfect, punished for something he did not understand.

    He would often wonder why others were shown Grace in the face of their malfeasance while he was cast out for a sin he would never understand for all of his days. Before the Garden, before the Apple, was a Child of God, feeling the fear of Her for the very first time and not understanding why.

    --

    Or: A study in tears, forgiveness, and how they are wielded. Crowley is comforted and finds healing. Aziraphale finds his own path back to grace.

    Summary

    Dream was well aware of his flaws. People loved to tell him about them to his face.

    Why do you stand so stiffly? Can’t you act normal for five minutes? You’re so dramatic. You’re so arrogant. Why are you so quiet? You’re too romantic. You’re too cold. You’re too much. You’re not enough.

    You’re lucky you’re so pretty.

    He lost count of how many people told him that particular fact about himself.

    (Dream and Hob move in together, and Dream is desperate to never look anything less than perfect. After all, his looks are all he has.)

    Summary

    As requested: Dream flinches when Hob tries to hold his hand. Which Hob misinterprets as Dream not wanting him this way. Dream has to brave trauma and communication to navigate his way to more intimacy with Hob.
    In the meantime, Hob just tries really hard to be a supportive friend to the man he's desperately in love with.

    Summary

    Meeting Dream had gone from once a century occurrence to every six months, to just every month, then to around once a week, a change of pace Hob would be eternally grateful for, if only people stopped bloody interrupting them.

    (Five times someone in Hob's life interrupts him and Dream's meetings (dates) and one time it's someone Dream knows.)
