Title: Secure Yourself to Heaven
Author name: LilyK [livejournal.com profile] sc_fossil
Artist name: [livejournal.com profile] ankaree
Genre: Slash
Characters/Pairing: Bodie/Doyle
Word count: 61,789
Warnings: Supernatural and religious themes, crossover with Apparitions
Summary: Pulled out of semi-retirement and put on his first undercover case in many years, Ray Doyle finds out that battling demons is very different for him now than it used to be. He must pretend to be someone he surely isn't; he must to prevent an assassination; he must save someone he dearly loves; and he must try and survive intact, body and soul.

Notes:
This story is dedicated to my good friend, C. L. Miles (known in fandom as Ankaree). I love her and appreciate her. She's been a devoted friend in fandom and RL for almost ten years. She is also the artist who did the fabulous manips for this story.

I want to thank the following people for their help and encouragement while I wrote this story and who helped edit it, each in their own wonderful and extremely useful fashion: C.L. Miles [livejournal.com profile] clmiles, Dawnbeth [livejournal.com profile] dawnebeth, JoJo [livejournal.com profile] solosundance and Sally Fell [livejournal.com profile] londonronnie. They went above and beyond helping me get this story into shape. Thank you, my friends.

I want to thank my fellow moderators in The Professionals Big Bang 2011: Draycevixen [livejournal.com profile] draycevixen, Norfolkdumpling [livejournal.com profile] norfolkdumpling, P. R. Zed [livejournal.com profile] przed, Saintvic [livejournal.com profile] saintvic and Sineala [livejournal.com profile] sineala. It was a wild ride but we worked together like bread and jam. Or is that Bodie and Doyle?

This is my first Big Bang. I loved writing for this project and I love writing for this fandom. It rocks!

Any mistakes are my own. Don't blame my editors! They took big pointy sticks to me and I tried to behave. Any feedback is welcome either here or at my email address: chakbalam at gmail dot com.

YES! I'm all glee-happy-bounce-clappy hands!

Can't wait to start reading it, though I'll have to because you know - RL, children to feed, cooty cats to care for... but later later, it's mine all mine.

::iz possibly a tad excited:: *g*

Oh, it sounds very intriguing!

Will continue on as soon as I can!

Yay, Kat! It's up and all shiny. As someone who has read numerous versions, I still want to read it again--loved Father Jacob in the mix with Bodie and Doyle.

And the cover art is gorgeous. The crackle of lightning gives it that dramatic flair.

Well done! The art is gorgeous and the story intriguing. I did a quick read and am on my way back to savor it. I love the relationship you've established with Ray and Jacob. And Ray's musings on faith are very thought provoking. I love a fiction that gives you things to think about. Bodie's feelings for Ray are so deep and supportive. You've done a great job. It's a wonderful fic. Congrats!

I literally just finished watching 'Apparitions' a few days ago, I'm so pleased I did! The cover art is already making me bounce with excitement - off to put it on Kindle!

Hooray for Big Bang! \o/

Just reading the summary makes me feel sorry for Doyle! XD He has a tough job ahead of him.

I'll read this fic once I've got some free time. Looking forward to it.

Ooh, look! I am looking forward to reading this. (Oh, please world, give me some time to read soon!) I couldn't resist reading a bit of the opening, and it is very intriguing! Not to mention lovely, lovely artwork from ankaree!

Yay for starting us off, and yay for doing it \o/
