He spoke the words like it explained everything.
It really didn't, but that was the least of Halt's worries.
The two men stared at the remainders of the campfire for a while.

On a quest to save Halt, both will need to make sacrifices and stay one step ahead of time. Can they do it, and will it be too late?

Four eyes and a guitar - Destiel
A brief electric shock was felt when both reached for the blanket simultaneously. "Sparks are flying between us," Dean giggled a little nervously. "During dry and cold weather, the air contains very little moisture. It is, therefore, an inferior conductor of electricity. Our body then charges particularly well and quickly ..." At this perfectly sober lecture, Dean rolled his eyes but with a grin on his face. "That was a metaphor, Cas." "Oh ..." The angel looked at him blankly, and the hunter courageously leaned forward to break this silence. Blue met green. But unlike Dean, whose eyes were filled with hunger and desire, the look in the angel's eyes was more confused ... mixed with some fear. Sighing, Dean looked down. "Listen, Cas. I ain't good at these things. Expressing feelings and stuff ... you know ..."Complete
Sigh of Relief
He knew he was a vile creature. He was depraved by nature, doomed to serve the purpose of lust and sin. No, Crowley certainly wasn't a stranger to those feelings. Hunger, desire, want. He had been designed to inflame them. This body he'd been given, temptation incarnate. Yet, he'd only ever experienced them himself for one other being, one single creature, the one and only he could never have. He was no stranger to longing, either. He'd been pining for so long he could have filled a whole damn forest! Millennia of waiting, wanting, loving from afar. He had exhibited a quite extraordinary amount of restraint over the years if Crowley could say so himself. Maybe it had been too much. Maybe something had to snap inside of him at some point, maybe- Excuses. Nothing but poor, pathetic attempts to justify his own weakness when it had been more crucial than ever to stay strong. It didn't matter that he'd wanted this for thousands of years. It didn't matter that he'd fought against this urge for centuries. It didn't matter that it had been on the verge of overpowering him countless times before. He hadn't let it. He'd never let it. Until now.

Ranger's Apprentice - Rescue
When Ranger apprentice Will is sent on his first solo mission to rescue an unnamed scholar as part of his fifth year training, he feels completely prepared. After helping defeat a warlord, surviving slavery in Skandia, and making it through countless other life-threatening missions, what could he possibly be unprepared for? But when the scholar he was sent to rescue turns out to be none other than George Carter, his childhood ward mate, Will finds himself stunned just long enough to get himself captured. Now without his beloved horse, Tug, and in the hands of numerous enemies, Will must once again rely on his mentor Halt's undying determination to come to his aid. Will Halt get there in time? And what was George doing that got him into so much trouble? Is there something larger at play than any of them knew?Complete

It's time to renew the treaty between Araluen and Skandia. But news from the north has Ranger Commandant Gilan and Queen Cassandra on edge about what might happen at the upcoming meeting. Deciding to be safe rather than sorry, they enlist the help of retired Ranger Halt and Redmont Fief's very own Ranger Will, the man who had played such a crucial role in creating the treaty to begin with that his last name derives from the document. On their journey, they add an unexpected member to their group before sailing to Skandia. But once they arrive, things don't go exactly as planned. Can the treaty be renewed?

How It Feels To Take A Fall
This should have been the best moment of Crowley's fucked up millennia lasting life. This should have been a moment of revelation, the moment he'd been waiting for, the moment his dreams finally came true. We just tend to forget that nightmares are dreams, too. ~oOo~oOo~ Summaries are hard without giving away too much plot. Just prepare for lots of emotions after the Not-Pocalypse, a shocking discovery they have to learn how to cope with, an angry and frustrated Crowley, a hurt and frustrated Aziraphale, lots of misunderstandings and clearing conversation, a letter, a talk with God Herself and just lots of fluff, angst, love with a happy ending! And of course - some smut ;)Complete
