    Summary

    This is a reference guide intended to help writers of Regency-era stories by providing a quick place to check whether a certain phrase was in use in the era, and if so, how it was used. The earliest attestation dates of phrases that postdate the Regency era might also make this guide useful to writers of neo-Victorian fiction.

    Summary

    I don’t know if you have ever had your torso scraped with a butter knife by your valet. There is not much in the experience to recommend it. Particularly when you suspect said valet is not entirely happy with you, and so wields the implement with more vim than strictly necessarily.

    Or, the tale of how Bertie and Jeeves finally Confessed All to each other, despite – or, possibly, because of – the passion-dampening affects of Giant Squirts, thwarted wrestling, unhappy boating, rabbits (both of the Luminous and Dream varieties), an aunt who breakfasts on the ground bones of nephews who displease her, and a pair of very natty yellow socks.

    Summary

    He knows why Crowley — who had not so much as picked up a book since the invention of the printing press — had done all that, and done it to save the fragile, insignificant human items that Aziraphale reveried with such vital importance, without even having to be asked. He knows, with a feeling of exhilaration like a live wire throughout his body, why Crowley had always saved him, had always thought of him, and had always treated him with such kindness, the likes of which Aziraphale had never received from anyone else, and never would, or had thought to extend even to himself.

    Season three opens on London, 1941, and the end of a long night.

    Summary

    When they’re back in Arkham after braving the battlefields, nested in their own little hellhole next to the cemetery, they settle back into routine like nothing ever happened.

    “My creatures hated me,” Herbert says.
    “Well, yeah,” says Dan.

    Herbert copes with post-Bride injuries less-than-gracefully.

    Summary

    The thing is that with Hermann it’s always been easy. Just a steady feeling that only seems unbelievable now that it’s gone, a certainty that Hermann would always be there snapping at his heels, complaining about his theories, dragging his drunk ass home from the party and taking his glasses off before he passed out. That’s what they’re good at. They don’t need any stupid mind-melds or big dramatic love confessions.

    So what the hell are they supposed to do now that they’ve had both?

    No, Newt’s not going to say anything. He’s going to shut up and wait for things to go back to normal. And if “normal” is silently pining for Hermann while knowing that it can never, ever happen— Well, he likes that, apparently. So there.

     

    Thanks to their apocalypse-cancelling drift and its involuntary love-confessing side effects, Newt and Hermann now know that their unrequited love for each other is, in fact, very much requited. All that's left to do is say it out loud and seal the deal. There's just one problem -- them.

    Summary

    "Please, take that piece of chocolate cake in the fridge, before Sean or I can get to it." Ellen waves a single free hand at Martin while he packs a bin the size of a picnic basket.

    "Uh -- I think we'll be..." Hooper shrugs under her gaze. "...dissecting a carcass."

    She smiles, wearied and a little far-away. "You don't have to take the cake along."

    Outside, the tide comes in dark under the stars, eating the shore slow and spitting it up. Hooper tightly squeezes his own crossed arms. He has at least two pairs of goggles in his trunk of gear. His wetsuit is coiled at the bottom. He can't decide if it's more dangerous to ask a woman he just met if she has any tampons in the house or to jump into the Atlantic ocean with nothing.

    ===

     

    Hooper gets his period on Amity Island.
    Like... all throughout the events of Jaws.

    Summary

    "May I kiss you?" leads to complicated negotiations and vandalised Bibles, because nothing is ever simple with these two.

    * * *

    “What are you afraid of?” he asked again, patiently.

    “I’m venomous, you know.”

    “Then don’t bite me.”

    Crowley carefully looked everywhere but at him. “Might not be able to help myself.”

    “I trust you,” Aziraphale said, patting Crowley’s knee encouragingly. It was bony under the expensive mulberry silk and wool blend trousers, or what would have been expensive trousers if Crowley bothered to actually buy them. The boniness tipped the scales even further towards ‘endearing’, and for some inexplicable reason added a solid weight of ‘arousing’ as well.

    Summary

    All Crowley wants is to see the inside of the bookshop so that he can get this design for the building next door done so the clients will be happy and his bosses will stop yelling. What A.Z. Fell wants, apparently, is for Crowley and the project that’s he’s working on to disappear. Permanently.

    One of these might be more attainable than the other.
