Summary
An emotionally stunted fuckwit struggles to adult and emerges from his chrysalis as a beautiful butterfly (sort of) Part II.
Marriage wasn’t exactly what he thought it would be like. They weren’t like married couples on the telly or in films or like his parents, who’d yelled and screamed and thrown things a lot, or like the neighbors next door growing up, who drank wine and went ballroom dancing on Friday nights. Barry felt less like his husband and more like a partner in crime, which technically he sort of was, and had been for awhile. But now it was just the two of them, heading out into the great unknown, and when he thought about all those nights he’d spent alone, sleeping on that hard mat in the community centre, he was so fucking grateful and relieved that this was how it had turned out.

Summary
“Simon would open up his locker every once in awhile and there’d be a mysterious object he’d never seen before sitting there on top of his comic books. A small metal penguin; an unusual puzzle, almost like a Rubiks cube, that Simon couldn’t figure out; a glass prism that cast improbable shapes and colors against the floor when he held it up to the light.”
Nathan has a different power.

Summary
One (slightly trembling) hand, the nails covered in chipped black polish, reached out, and pointed at one of the words in the sample sentence, 'Nauta in patria poenas reginae timet.' “The trick is to start with the verb,” he said. “Timet. What’s that mean?”

Summary
"He wasn’t quite sure what he expected -- maybe some bad song and dance numbers, an awkward striptease or two. He didn’t expect to enjoy it. He didn’t expect to be alternately laughing so hard he almost choked on his beer and staring, entranced, as his new friend Angel performed some kind of out-of-this world contortionist act. He didn’t expect to find himself marveling at the transformations that had gone into this performance, and he really didn’t expect to wonder how it was done. And whether he could do it."
Nathan tries out drag.

Summary
“Everything about this world seemed wrong: all of the others were dead, and the Nathan he had known, as annoying as he was, might as well have been dead, too, because this person was nothing like him. His tone of voice, his manner of speaking, even something about his face just seemed wrong. It was as if Nathan were a shop that had gone out of business, and now it was just empty and dilapidated, haunted by old memories, with no expectation of a new owner moving in any time soon.”
Takes place in the alternate universe Curtis accidentally creates in Series 1, Episode 4; except Curtis fails to turn back time and gets stuck there.

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
Aziraphale Fell isn’t exactly in the closet, but he’s not made it much further out than the hat-stand. The hairdresser at the spa where he’s just taken a job is far too flamboyant for his liking – doubtless, that’s why he can’t get the man out of his mind. His boss is a grouchy, nonbinary terror, who has an inexplicable soft spot for a priggish conservative MP from Oxfordshire. His best friend can’t stop predicting he’s fated to couple up soon. And the rent is due.
