Summary
Although Aziraphale has loved Crowley since before the Beginning, the fundamental opposition of their natures has prevented him from acting. It hasn't stopped him from wanting, or dreaming, or simply wishing things could be different. That he could love Crowley without endangering him.
After 6000 years of glancing touches and lingering gazes, he finds himself estranged from Heaven. And then a series of unfortunate coincidences leaves them the task of making two humans fall in love. Mix mutual longing with a business-meeting-turned-party complete with a romantic atmosphere and dancing, and they don't stand a chance.
“You mean like…a sudden rainstorm forces them together beneath a canopy. They look into each other’s eyes and realize they were made for each other.”
“Cotillion balls! People would gather and do some formal dancing and then realize they had misunderstood each other and were actually deeply in love.”
“One fabulous kiss, and we’re good.”
Love doesn't always work like that, but then again, sometimes it does.
aka
A fix-it based on quiet, gentle, and romantic stories...plus very tender yet awkward sex because, come on, it's them.

Bookmark Notes:
If you want a sweet alternative to the Final 15, in which the ball is never interrupted and Aziraphale gets to make the confession we all knew he wanted, read this 24k one shot.
“And as they danced, their gentle sway nothing but an excuse to hold one another, Aziraphale remembered:
A night of burning churches and Nazi plots. Salvation through a demon’s intervention and an angel’s sleight of hand. Magic acts and miracles stumbling into a rather drunken apology – a dance taken in turns just as everything had been. A push-and-pull orchestrated with needlelike precision, just teasing the boundaries of what was allowed.
A very early morning of almosts, wine-sweet and softened by the promise of “someday” wrapped in avian allegory.
A week of burning books and Heavenly-Hellish plots. Magic acts and miracles jostling their careful choreography out of place, slipping to reveal something real, something dangerous. Something so beautiful Aziraphale ached with the wanting of it. Salvation through the fumbling missteps of an angel and a demon shattering the boundaries of creed.
An afternoon where the almosts didn’t seem too far away for once, bubbly with champagne and the tinkling of piano keys.”

Summary
“It’s good, thank you,” Zira said curtly, then fixed him with another glare. “And my name is Zira, not Angel.”
He shouldn’t speak, he shouldn’t speak, he shouldn’t speak— “S’not what the A stands for? Cos it seems like it could be, with, y’know, y’lookin’ all—ngh—angelic and—nhmmm—cherubic an’ stuff y’know.”
Crowley was going to cut out his own tongue.
*****
Zira loathes Crowley from the first time they crash into each other. The cool, confident, brash man is the opposite in every way to his anonymous online paramour, Rose. Crowley is attracted to Zira, but the man is supercilious and overbearing. Besides, he’s only flirting with Zira because he doesn’t think he’s worthy of his anonymous online partner, Flower. Now, Zira and Crowley are trapped on a ship together, assigned to the same dinner table for the next two weeks, while online, Flower and Rose are planning to meet in person for the first time…- Language:

Summary
So it was fine. Even if Crowley couldn’t love him, he clearly liked him well enough, and that was almost the same thing.
It no doubt would have continued to be fine, or at least fine-adjacent, were it not for a narrowly averted apocalypse and several bottles of a really quite nice Riesling Aziraphale had found in the back room of his newly restored bookshop.

Summary
Apparently, Crowley could ruin his good mood. Crowley was just about the only thing that could ruin it.
“Right. So. You and I, is it?” Aziraphale confirmed, just to be clear.
“That’s right.”
“And how long is this trip, exactly?”
“One full week,” Crowley enunciated too clearly, stretching his lips around the words and sharply clacking his k. “Seven whole days.”
“Great,” Aziraphale breathed.
They both smiled, all teeth and no joy.(Human AU / Enemies to Lovers) • English Teacher Aziraphale gets roped into the sixth form Paris field trip, not realising his worst enemy Science Teacher Crowley is the accompanying chaperone. Are seven days of forced proximity really enough to undo a truly vitriolic relationship? Or, let's be real: How quickly does it take them to fall head over heels for each other?

Summary
Henry is living a Homeric epic. Sophia’s life is more like a fragment from Sappho. Neither realises their story was born from a Greek tragedy.
A year before Richard’s arrival to Hampden, a physics major tries to join Julian’s class. She’s summarily dismissed, but keeps running in to Henry. As Sophia is drawn into his orbit, the question becomes: is it possible to avert tragedy, or is she an unwitting witness to the inevitable?

Summary
The realization that she isn’t alone in her own body comes like a gunshot. It’s not like she’d imagined it to be. Not like being possessed by a demon she has to fight and win over. To her horror, she just feels complete. Like a missing piece has been slotted in and she can finally breathe easy.
It wasn’t supposed to be like this. This wasn’t the plan. She was supposed to allow Helena into her body to take her over. She couldn’t kill the bitch, so this was the second best option. To consume her mind, take it into her own as the stronger of the two. Another part of her hates it for a completely different reason — there’s an inkling of disgust at herself, like she’s trapped in the walking flesh prison of her captor. Her own body is totally alien to her. The whole ordeal is mortifying.
Helly reintegrates to take over Helena and get rid of her forever. It doesn’t end up working out like that. Mark helps.

the keenest pleasures by depraveddame

05 Sep 2025

Summary
Athens, Ancient Greece, 430 BC.
An unknown pathogen which would be known as The Plague of Athens has been ravaging the ancient Greek city, killing thousands and thousands with no end in sight, and just outside the walls surrounding the devastation, a guilt-wracked angel and a raging, despairing demon seek refuge from a violent downpour and the stench of death in an old, abandoned dwelling.
And under the heaviness of what's happening just outside the hut and the relentlessly pressing weight of their forbidden desire for the other, they crumble.

Foamrider by Voidflower
Fandoms: The Silmarillion and other histories of Middle-Earth - J. R. R. Tolkien

Tags
Summary
Kevo floated there for a long time, remembering his father’s songs of the great storms of the Journey, when the waves of Ossë would gather themselves up tall and terrible and crash into the shore with a joy like that of Tulkas in the battle-flood; when Manwë’s airs would turn metalgray and livid with tendrils of fire; when the Eldar remembered again that they were to the Powers, even Ossë the Lesser Power, as a droplet to the Sundering Sea. They remembered who he had served, once.
Such storms came never to the strands of Valinor. Here, all wildness answered to the frailty of the Children; Oromë’s beasts dulled their fangs, and the Earth-Queen tempered the poison of her creations. The sea rose but seldom, and then only to such heights as music could answer. Even as a child, there had been no peril for Kevo in the shallow waters of the coast.
It was calm. And Kevo was bored.Or: Kevo of the Teleri invents surfing and Ossë Experiences Love.

Fandoms: Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett, Good Omens (TV), Lucifer (TV)
03 Jul 2023
Tags
Summary
Crowley has plenty of experience in protecting the boss's son from his father. Not so much in protecting him from himself. While Crowley would go up against God and the devil with nothing but a tire iron for the kids he's raised, it's not much help when the first one was the devil. Adam's nudge towards America worked on his (not) father, too.
Now, six years after Armageddon't, Crowley and Aziraphale get a call from the city of angels. Lucifer is loose and trying to get rid of his vulnerabilities, especially concerning Adam... Through therapy?

Summary
Shen Jiu exhaled, breathing out the air he’d unintentionally held in his lungs as he looked down at his left hand.
A sword tassel – a jade charm, snapped in half – cutting into his palms. Blood welling against it, dying the faded vermillion silk threads, scarlet.
He was alive. Again.Or:
How Shen Jiu tries to save himself the fourth time round.

Ilvermorny: A History by athenivy
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling, Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardly (Harry Potter)
30 Jul 2025
Tags
Summary
THIS IS A COMPLETED FIC.
(I love researching the intricacies and unknowns of a fandom, so I wrote a history book on Ilvermorny based on both my findings and my imagination.)
Long overshadowed by its European cousin, Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has remained a source of reverence, mystery, and controversy since its founding atop Mount Greylock in the early 17th century.
In this richly detailed, thoroughly researched history, scholar and spellwright Athenivy uncovers the full scope of Ilvermorny's past: from the whispered origin myths of Isolt Sayre and the forbidden Gaunt bloodline, to the intercultural currents that shaped the school’s Houses, rituals, and contradictions.
Through war, reform, rebellion, and revelation, Ilvermorny evolved — a mirror of the continent it serves, and the secrets it keeps.

Kissing, Accidentally. by skybound2

Summary
Crowley doesn’t mean to kiss him, really. It just sort of...happens. An...automatic response, if you will. An unintended automatic response. Unexpected, even.
It’s not planned, that’s what he’s trying to say.
~~~
Or the one where Crowley gives in and kisses Aziraphale while he has him pinned against a wall.

Summary
In sharing this particular fragment of the Cain Archive, it is my wish to shed light on a less explored period of Ciaphas Cain's life: that is, when the Commissariat sent him to liaise with Lord General Zyvan and his staff on Coronus. By then, Cain's career and status as Hero of the Imperium (despite his private protestations about the title) were well established and he found himself quite taken with a life that, for being more stable and comfortable than what he had known before, still put his particular skills to good use. The events described in this fragment illustrate well, I believe, the outrageous aptitude he had for always finding himself in the thick of things (albeit reluctantly) — a talent that made him a most valuable asset to the Inquisition.
