Summary
“If you’re a time traveller,” Hopeless asked, “when did you come from?”
Hopeless had moved nearer to Larrikin, who had not really sobered, and was still looking excessively happy with himself for no particular reason.
“I … two thousand and seventeen,” Valkyrie said, and then she looked at Skulduggery, “help me up.”
The skeleton took a moment to move, and then he extended a hand and supported her arms so she could stand. There was an overwhelming lack of familiarity in his behaviour.
“Alright,” Dexter said, “So that’s how you know Skulduggery.”
Valkyrie frowned, “I didn’t expect you to take that so well.”
“Well,” Larrikin said from the floor, where Dexter had dropped him sometime during his laughing fit. “You’re not the first.”
Or, Valkyrie travels back in time and meets the Dead Men. She finds them very different to what she expected.

Summary
Crowley’s hands go to Aziraphale’s face – where is his taut anger, his tired emptiness, his alarming distance? “Look at me, please.”
“My dear,” Aziraphale breathes.
“It was a trick. You’re alive. I’m alive. We have time to find the printer, or the catalogue, or the digitised whatever, wherever the copy of the book is. We can put this back together.”
Or, Crowley has a plan, but Aziraphale doesn't know it. It works. A canon-compliant fix-it of series 3.

Summary
“He’s in there.” Crowley jerks his head towards the cell door, unenthusiastically.
“Oh,” Aziraphale hesitates, “he?”
Crowley growls into his hands. “They’re killing the lad tomorrow, at least give him that.”
“Oh. I never met him, you see.” Aziraphale carefully lays a hand on Crowley’s knee, just for a moment. “My dear, what has happened?”
“Do you know why they’re executing him?”
“I imagine it’s because he’s an enemy soldier with God on his side, who’s shown them to be fools.”
“Heresy. He wore men’s clothing, you see.”
Long before Armageddon, Crowley and Aziraphale meet outside Jeanne d'Arc's cell. Aziraphale comes to realise something about Crowley and something, maybe, about himself.

Summary
Sherlock is relatively confident that he isn’t a sodomite. That would be simpler. He cannot imagine this creature rising in his gut for any other man. And whatever form it wishes to take, he cannot see it resembling something ordinary. This isn’t about sex. This is about wanting to curl up in the centre of James Moriarty’s life, and live there like a creature.
Or, after the events of series one, Sherlock reckons with his feelings, James' relationship with Beatrice, and what Sherlock really wants from James Moriarty.

Summary
This was far from the first time someone had wanted Geralt. This wasn’t the first time it was someone Geralt wanted back. And this time, it was good. It would be a good match. But his gut said no. A good match wasn’t enough. Geralt deserved – needed better than that. He deserved glorious – passionate – spectacular love. That was what he wanted, for Geralt.
Jaskier is a Cupid, an immortal semi-divine entity or an anthropomorphic personification of an emotional experience (depending on who you ask). He set out to find Geralt someone he could fall in love with. He wasn't counting on falling in love for himself.

Summary
"It’s a fucking shed in our kitchen,” Geralt said. “Everyone else who answered the ad took one look at it and left.”
“Yeah, that worries me,” said Yen. “What sort of a person would actually want to live in that thing? What if he’s some kind of weirdo?”
“Should have thought of that before renting it out."
Yennefer and Geralt have been living together for ten years, madly in love with each other & both unwilling to make the first move. Strapped for cash, they do the only logical thing; install a garden shed in their kitchen and rent it out to Jaskier, a 24-year old guitarist in a folk rock band and freewheeling disaster. They don't expect to catch feelings. They don't expect their new flatmate to overturn their carefully constructed, platonic domestic bliss...
