Two shortfics-- "Constants" and "All things strive".
And I bet you thought you'd gotten rid of me. HAH. Hah, I say.
Title: Constants
Author: possibly_thrice
Rating: G
Pairing/Character(s): Aziraphale, Crowley, mythological figures, and some ducks.
Summary: Odysseus married Penelope, daughter of Icarius and the Naiad Periboea... Penelope, formerly named Arnaea, or Arnacia, had been flung into the sea by Nauplius at her father’s order; but a flock of purple-striped ducks buoyed her up, fed her, and towed her ashore. Impressed by this prodigy, Icarius and Periboea relented, and Arnaea won the new name of Penelope, which means ‘duck’. -- "The Greek Myths", by Robert Graves.
A/N: Um. This... makes perfect sense in my head.
( It was a winedark and stormy sea, but it had ducks in it. )
Title: All things strive.

Pairing/Character(s): Crowley, Aziraphale, and, ahem, Nettie Pulsifer.
Summary: Everyone is genderswapped and Nettie Pulsifer achieves flight.
A/N: This, on the other hand, doesn't. I have no excuse, just a fondness for genderbending. Also: all better suggestions w/r/t names for girl!Warlock are appreciated-- I'm not satisfied with Jezebel, somehow. And I'll need good names if I want to write page after ridiculous page of this. Actually, the same goes for Newton, come to that.
( Nettie Pulsifer, twelve years old, thin, and bespectacled, was making a model airplane to beguile the lunch hour. )
