Stars Fall on Sandford (PG)
Hello, I am
big_twinkie . During December, I will be the driver for Hot Fuzz. If you need to see the fandom overview, go here.
Fandom: HOT FUZZ
Pairing: Nicholas/Danny
Word Count: 4000 words

Why this must be read:
This story is fun, charming, and full of the general weirdness that is Sandford. It's one of those slice of life stories, except, perhaps, the explosion part. But this is Hot Fuzz, so things will blow up...from time to time...
Excerpt:
When dealing with the vast distances of interstellar space, time -- and our concept of time -- starts to get tricky. The things we see in the sky are only as current as the speed of light allows. The moon we see is ten seconds old. The sun in the sky actually happened eight minutes ago.
The red giant Betelgeuse marks Orion's right shoulder (his right, our left). Betelgeuse, I'm sure you know, is getting on in years, and likely to go nova as soon as the mood strikes. Light from Betelgeuse only reaches us after 500 (and a bit) years of hard slog. So bear in mind that the following sentence, while accurate, is only accurate from a particular spatiotemporal point of view:
Just then, Betelgeuse exploded.
