Smooth runs the water where the brook is deep
It is the mid fifteenth century, and after a battle, Aziraphale and Crowley find themselves tied together as hostages in the cellar of an inn. Unable, for various reasons, to resort to miracles to free themselves, they must work together to find a solution before the dawn of the next day, or Crowley risks being discorporated by the very people he was assigned to tempt.
A fic set in the time of the War of the Roses featuring friendship, co-operation and the giving and receiving of stealth hugs.
Rating: Teen and up for some swearing and mild references to violence.
For sonnet23. You asked for a hostage situation in which they can’t just miracle themselves out or miracle everything okay. This is mostly Book canon, but there are hints of Show characterisation here and there. Happy Holidays, I hope you enjoy this.
