    Summary

    Anthony Crowley has known London longer than London has known him. Every cut-through, cab rank, one-way system, theatre crowd, and hidden churchyard.

    That’s the point of the Knowledge: the grueling, multi-part test every London black cab driver has to pass, thousands of streets and landmarks learned so thoroughly the city lives inside one’s head.
    Crowley passed it years ago.

    But when he falls for Aziraphale Fell, a soft-spoken, waistcoat-wearing examiner he has absolutely no excuse to ever encounter, Crowley does the only reasonable thing — he digs out his old birth certificate, registers under a name he hasn’t used in years, and signs up to fail the Knowledge on purpose.

    Just one Appearance, he tells himself. Answer well, withdraw gracefully, ask the man out, done in twenty minutes.

    Naturally, it doesn’t go that way.

    Summary

    Amadeo lay in the dark silence, hand delicately tracing the stone enclosure before drifting to rest on his stomach. The pain was still there, eating away at him from the inside. Idly, his hand started pressing. Pushing down, down, down as if he could physically force the hunger away. His body molded to the bottom of the coffin as he crushed his abdomen. 

    His breath caught. 

    Amadeo turned sharply to his side, gagging as he released the pressure on his stomach. Saliva dripped down his face as he heaved. He wrapped his arms lightly around his middle, resting his head against the cold bed.

    This didn’t feel like love.


    OR: an Armand character study through his relationship with hunger.

    Summary

    "...it never felt fair to ask anyone to be my partner while I was still half in the closet.”

    Crowley shrugged a shoulder. “Admirable."

    “Do you think so? I am glad. I thought it might have been stupid of me.” He felt his face warm and he flicked a glance at his glass, considering the level of the sherry. This wasn’t the man he’d come here to meet, he reminded himself. This wasn’t a date.

    “Didn’t say it wasn’t stupid,” Crowley drawled, that tug at the corner of his sardonic mouth twitching again. He leaned forward then, his neck stretching as he leant his chin on his hand. “No rule saying something can’t be two things at once.”

    Crowley would know.

    . . .
    Middle aged dating is a nightmare. Nobody Erelah met had sent any excitement racing up his spine. It was his luck that the one man that piqued his interest was one who had rescued him from a date going wrong, and said man didn’t seem to have any interest in anything but friendship. Well, he supposed he would take what he could get.

    Anthony Crowley has his own reasons for not dating. Expectations vs reality were too far apart in his experience, and he desperately doesn't want to disappoint anyone, especially his new friend.
