Author's summary:
"Be honest, sir," I said, scrabbling for the left flipper, "I look like a moron.""I’ve seen you look moronic before, Peter," Nightingale said, flicking the wheel right and sending us careening down a side street and me thudding against the left-hand door. "This does not even, as you put it, 'crack the top ten.'"

Summary
Oneshot collection of all of my Rivers of London fics for Whumptober 2021.
Day 1: When Peter gets a phone call from Lesley warning him to let sleeping dogs lie, he's pretty sure that means the sleeping dogs are about to wake up and bite him.
Day 4: The Hanging Tree canon divergence. When Peter gets snatched away to fairyland, a (un)familiar face shows up to save him.
Day 5: Lesley tases Peter and runs at the end of Broken Homes, but she doesn't make it very far.
Day 9: Even after everything, Peter is still shaken by Lesley's death. Except, she doesn't stay dead for very long.
Day 12: Lies Sleeping canon divergence. Lesley ultimately decides against torturing her best friend.
Day 22: Lesley gets a brief respite from the voices in her head.
Day 29: Peter ends up in a sticky situation and gets some help from an old friend.

Summary
Aziraphale & Crowley helped stop the Apocalypse ten years ago. It's been quiet since, but they've never believed Heaven and Hell really gave up on the whole 'destroying the earth' thing. And now an angel has fallen from the sky, found injured and unconscious in St. James Park, and Peter Grant of the Folly has called them in to help. Old friends and new join forces to protect humanity as the other shoe finally drops.
You do not need to have read the Rivers of London series to follow this work (although it's a wonderful series which I highly recommend.) All you really need to know is that the Folly is the Scotland Yard office for the weird and uncanny, and it is staffed solely by the wizard DCI Thomas Nightingale and his apprentice, PC Peter Grant. If you're not familiar with Good Omens, on the other hand, you will be completely lost.

Summary
His mouth twisted in something that was either a smile or a grimace or both. He understood.
‘How do you manage it?’ she asked, because her own methods of putting riverine dignity above personal grievances were starting to buckle under a weight they weren’t built to hold. ‘Making decisions like that go against everything you want to do, everything you feel you should be doing… How do you make yourself keep going?’
‘Ah, that’s fairly simple. I ask myself what Peter would do.’

The story of how Beverley moved into the tech cave during the section of Lies Sleeping where Peter's gone missing, and some of the conversations between her and Nightingale that happened there.

Summary
Someone is stealing computer equipment from across London, and no one can work out who or, for that matter, why. With alarm bells ringing, the legendary Flying Squad turn to Peter for help, and Peter turns to Dr David Mellenby, an astrophysicist who knows rather more about magic than Peter expected. In an investigation that criss crosses the capital, but especially the river, Peter learns more than he ever wanted to about quantum, cryptocurrencies, and just what it takes to destroy a computer.
