In the Republic of Negative Capability by fearoflying for equestrianstatue, triedunture, Zwergenmaedchen
Fandoms: Good Omens (TV)

Summary
I've found it hard to read things during this pandemic, because it seems like we're in a new world I don't understand and everything feels like a document from an ancient civilization.
Then I found Zwergenmaedchen's tender 'Love in the Time of Corona,' and received Triedunture's quarantine-themed update to their *actually* flammable 'Tempt You Toward the Flood,' and I finally had a creative idea for the first time in a month. This is a gift for them, and also for equestrianstatue, whose story 'Your Mirror' continues to blow my mind, and from which I stole the idea that Aziraphale likes it when Crowley laughs at him.
Herewith, the newly-free beings of love Aziraphale and Crowley navigate a Soho in quarantine, do good, feel weird, reminisce about the great plagues of history, and then have sex that might be slightly over the top.
Be advised, the breaks cleanly in half: chapter 1 is fluff, chapter 2 is smut. There is now a multimedia appendix. Skip what you don't want, skip to what you're into.

and one man in his time plays many parts by Enterthetadpole for equestrianstatue

Summary
It only takes a few more times for Michael to realize he unleashed a monster, and not the kind that breathes fire to destroy poorly placed villages. Those types are quicker to make excuses for not going out to lunch on lazy weekdays. They didn't lob smiles with double meanings written in the laugh lines of that face.

Summary
Aziraphale held out on having a telephone installed in the bookshop until 1921, mostly because Crowley kept badgering her about it, and Aziraphale was still feeling miffed about the fact that Crowley had slept through the telephone’s invention and a great many other things, as well.

Whistle Past the Graveyard by omnishambles for ailcia, equestrianstatue
Fandoms: Endeavour (TV)

Summary
The mental image of Morse sitting at one of those visiting tables in his grey uniform, looking ill the way people look when they aren't used to the food, it feels like an affront. To Morse, to his – whatever. Dignity. Prissiness. Whatever you want to call it. Jakes can't imagine Morse wanting to be seen like that, and certainly not by him. Obviously he isn’t going to go.
Set after 2x04, Neverland.

Summary
1950. A playwright is fascinated by a decidedly camp photograph of a theatrical group for British soldiers during the Siege of Kandahar, 1880. He tracks down an old man who claims to be one of them. Who claims to be a lot of things.
There's a story to tell. A story of the Victorian gay underworld extending to the farthest reaches of empire. A story of two deeply amoral men in finding the possibility of what ... tenderness? in a hellish situation.
And there's a right way to tell it. (Plays! Plays within plays. Plays about plays. The vigorous and satisfying penetration of the fourth wall. Distancing. You might want to call it Brechtian, but it's also Gay to the core.)
And there's a right time too. That's the problem.
