“Can I come in?” Eddie asks, teeth chattering.
He’s soaked to the bone, a cornflower blue polo clinging to his small shoulders. It’s the only thing he’s wearing besides a pair of khakis that are also soaked through.
Richie is suddenly very sober.
“Eds?”
or:
Eddie leaves Myra and shows up at Richie's door.

March 3 -- One of the four co-founders of Facebook wants to sell as many as 10 million shares in the company, the New York Post reported, citing an unidentified person close to the situation. The four co-founders include Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg, Chris Hughes, Dustin Moskovitz and Eduardo Saverin. Bloomberg's Margaret Brennan reports. (Source: Bloomberg)
(or: Four People Who Weren't Selling Their Shares (+ One Who Was))
>>though united in concept, each one of these pieces is a standalone, so though this is technically a WIP you can read each section as an individual fix-it fic. EIGHT YEARS after beginning this fic, I have finally posted a new chapter (!) and vow to complete it.<<

Summary
When Foggy gets a call from his college friend Sam, he can't say he's expecting to bond with the Avengers. It's a little awkward, when he can't tell them that he knows Daredevil, or Matt that he knows them, but he likes them.
It gets complicated when Natasha decides that Foggy and Daredevil should go on a date.

“How do you feel about art?”
I blink at my reflection in the rear view mirror. “Art?”
“There’s an exhibition on in Brixton that I think you’re going to find very interesting,” Guleed answers, and that same someone sniggers in the background again. “Eight o’clock? I’ll text you the address.”

Summary
"This one is a special case," Burgess says. "He is a war hero. Do you understand? You will be on your best behavior. You know what happens when you are not."
Two years into his imprisonment, and Dream of the Endless has not given Roderick Burgess what he wants. Yet if he cannot have back his son, then he will have whatever else Dream has to give, and sell it to the highest bidder: body, powers, and all.
Hob Gadling, newly back from the Western Front, has barely slept since 1889, and is desperate for any sort of relief, even that peddled by mad old men claiming to be warlocks.

Summary
Zuko is just trying to survive Boiling Rock prison. He didn't make it out on time on the Day of Black Sun and frankly, he's lucky to be alive. His escape attempts have proven futile and he doesn't have any allies to speak of here. His best bet is keeping his head down and trying to survive.
Sokka is just here to break his dad out. It's his fault his dad was captured and he needs to fix this. His plan is working well enough so far; he's made it here, he's disguised as a guard, no one suspects him, now he just has to find his dad and get out.
Blue eyes meet gold. A flash of recognition. Shit just got a whole lot more complicated.

"So how does it change?"
"Oh, well, one day, out of the blue, you confess your undying love for me."
Matt grins. "What do I say?"
"So you come up to me, right? This is at the office - You come up to me - I'm at my desk - you come up to me, and you get down on your knees."
Matt snorts.
"You're very catholic, and very dramatic," Foggy explains, "And this is just the type of thing that you do. So you're on your knees, and you turn your face up to me and you take my hand, and you say 'I, blind, tragically catholic Matt Murdock, must confess my feelings to you.'"

Summary
Crowley takes a leap of faith… into the heart of a black hole. It’s the last card Crowley has to play. He can’t do this without Aziraphale… and he’s betting that Aziraphale can’t do this without him.
Act I (Black Holes) ends around Chapter 6 (10 if you want the smut babes). You could leave the story off there. Up til chapter 6 you have a whole story that’s pretty much G rated.
From there my thirst comes out like a sexy little demon in tight jeans and a vaguely downwards saunter.
Act II (Revelations) is an attempt at season 3. Treat it as a separate work that builds off Act I. Lots of plot twists ahead/theories/speculations that I won’t spoil for you :)
Thank you for all your kudos and comments, and taking this journey with me. Playlist for this fic is called For Aziraphale on Spotify.
Update: Now fully edited. Story hasn’t changed but I have added a few things like foreshadowing and a bit more clarity to the complicated bits.

"I'm just saying. You haven't shut up about wanting to fuck a stranger since you left Myra,” Bev says. “He's a stranger who is down to fuck. What are you twiddling your thumbs for?"
Eddie sighs. He chews on a bit of soggy bell pepper and considers it. Finally he says, "I just worry it'll be bad."
Bev laughs. "Sex with strangers often is."
"Oh, great! That's just what I wanted to hear!"
"C'mon, Eddie," she says. "What's the worst that could happen?"
OR:
Eddie and Richie try to have a one-night stand and get snowed in together.

Summary
Senior year, Eddie joined the wrestling team to have a winter sport, and Richie learned a new phrase to torture everyone with. It would not occur to Eddie for over twenty years that one had anything to do with the other. All he knew in the fall of 1993 was that he put on a singlet and Richie lost his mind over “tossed salad.”
Or:
A story about the first flush of love, the devastation of loss, and what happens when the only thing left standing in the way of your happiness is yourself.
