    Summary

    An old family curse brings Dr Aziraphale Fell, professor of Religious History and Folkloric Traditions, into correspondence with Mr Anthony Crowley, whose family is said to be cursed.

    Neither anticipates how quickly, or how willingly their letters would begin to matter.

    What follows is a slow, intimate exchange about curses, books, loneliness, belonging... and the unexpected ways two lives can begin to align, one letter at a time.

    Summary

    Crowley is a talented figure skating marshal who knows the ice better than anything else in his life. Aziraphale is a complete beginner who decides, against all common sense, to learn to ice skate.

    A few weeks of public lessons, lingering glances, and the courage that it takes to fall... on the ice, and in love.

    Summary

    Six years ago, Crowley left St Louis for a fresh start back in London.

    He was hearbroken - but what did he expect, when he'd fallen in love with an engaged man?

    Now he's back, with his sister and nephew, and reluctantly getting into the holiday spirit. Visiting a "Santa's Grotto" certainly wasn't his idea of a good time. But then he caught sight of the really, really hot Santa.

    A human AU about second chances and a very Unchristmasy-Christmas. T for swears and Crowley's Santa-kink, but smut (and angst) free!

    Summary

    After the whole Second Coming business was sorted out, Aziraphale and Crowley found themselves at a bit of a loose end.

    Being cut adrift from both Sides was fantastic - of course it was. But Crowley couldn't help notice the elephant in the room - the fact was, that disasterous kiss in the bookshop hadn't been their first kiss - not by a long shot. Back in 2019, they had kissed (and done a lot more than that) during one spectacular night together at the SIXTH millennial interdisciplinary icebreaker!!! in Bangor, Wales.

    So now, Crowley was taking Aziraphale back to Bangor for a weekend away: to remind the Angel what they'd done, what they'd had... and what they could have again.

    Of course, he probably shouldn't have left the directions enitrely up to the Bentley.

    Summary

    A mixture of boredom and outrage at being dumped led to wilful misuse of the office printer. A day later, Crowley found himself in the awful student bar near work listening to break up stories, getting drunk on pissy beer.

    But despite all expectation, he was having a great time. There was nothing like other people’s problems to put yours in perspective. He was already congratulating himself on an excellent idea, when a new arrival suddenly made the evening much more interesting.

    A meet cute in a real student bar in London, and Crowley has always been a "glass half full" sort of guy.

    Summary

    A reverse-ish human AU where Ezra is an angel and Crowley is from the wrong side of town. But....

    >> What if..... Crowley was the one that wanted Ezra to take the Top Job?
    >> What if.... Ezra wanted them to run away together?
    >> What if..... Crowley was the one who said "I don't even like you" and "we don't know each other"?

    Or: Crowley fell in love with Ezra Teachdaire when they were 15. But no one could ever know. Especially not Ezra. 15 years later, they're still hooking up, and Ezra might suspect something.

     
    Title is a line from Arctic Monkeys, I Wanna Be Yours: "Secrets I have held in my heart... are harder to hide than I thought"

    Summary

    Crowley's fall from grace in London led him back to his dad's house to lick his wounds and work in the McDonalds next door. Still, it's not all that bad. Every few days he gets to serve the Angel in the Yellow Bentley. The most gorgeous, charming man he's ever met, whose smile is like a ray of sunshine in that shitty corner of Glasgow. Except when he uses his Something's Wrong voice.

    Summary

    Crowley recovered from Covid well enough. Sure his eyes are still sensitive, the joint pain is lingering. But he can live with that. It's the fact he still can't smell or taste anything a year after getting better that's ruined his life. And none of his so-called friends stuck around for the pity party.

    Smell training doesn't work. He's been at it for months. So there's absolutely no reason to continue smell visualisation with this Aziraphale guy, is there? In retrospect, the Pavlovian erection situation probably isn't helping.

    ---
    A Human AU where Aziraphale helps Crowley regain his sense of smell after Covid-related anosmia.
    No angst or trauma, though Crowley is coping with long term effects of Covid (mild disability).

    Summary

    Aziraphale and Crowley are living, free and happy, on Alfa Senturi. And then Aziraphale decides to risk everything and return to Akesh with Ligur to rescue Raphael.

    Back in the slave capital, Aziraphale meets Anathema - and she has a prophecy that will change the world. But the Marse'keshi are searching for them - Aziraphale must get back to the moon boat, where Crowley waits for him, before it leaves with the tide.
    --

    Aziraphale had turned away, facing outward and towards the direction he expected the pair to come from, but Ligur had remained motionless. It was for that reason that Ligur was the one who first noticed something was wrong. “Someone’s lit a torch.” He whispered urgently.

    “What?” Aziraphale tried to wriggle back round, but then they both heard a commotion and shouts coming from the garden, and beyond, within the villa.

    “We need to run, now!” Aziraphale grabbed Ligur’s arm and tried to pull him out of the bushes, back onto the track.

    "I’m not leaving Raphael!” The other man held firm.

    Summary

    Aziraphale and Crowley are slaves living in the Akeshi capital, meeting briefly at a slave market and making an instant connection.

    Crowley dreams of the two of them running away together, before Aziraphale is sold on to a new household. Crowley prays to Aziraphale's god to make him brave enough to find Crowley again.

    While they're apart, Aziraphale discovers a means of escape - across the Akeshi straits. But Crowley can't swim...

    ----

    “Thank you for saving me.” Crowley murmured against Aziraphale’s chest, slurring the words as he began to drift into sleep.

    “We have one life.” Aziraphale replied. “I saved myself."

    In the library, Aziraphale meets Crowley: a barman from East London with a mysterious debt linked to a job he hates. They soon become the best of friends. In fact, they love each other. But as Aziraphale explains, there are four types of love. Does Crowley have to pick just one?

    Summary

    Anthony J Crowley, former face of Burberry, fashion editor of Hell Magazine, arbiter of cool, found himself perched at a small antique card table at the back of a cluttered bookshop, looking down at a tea pot and porcelain cups, milk jug and sugar bowl as if they were alien artefacts.

    Or

    Azir's family, of sound military stock, treated feelings a little like illnesses. They could be prevented, cured, but were certainly not to be shared.

    Or

    A human AU about what happens when a photoshoot in an atmospheric bookshop puts two men from different worlds together, and how long it takes them to bumble through the embarrassment of talking about Feelings (20+ chapters, it turns out).

    Summary

    Aziraphale has left Crowley to be Supreme Arch Angel, but comes back down as soon as the induction meeting is over. Unfortunately it has taken almost a year, and Crowley isn't impressed. After too much wine, some mea culpa on both sides, some body sharing and a trip to Alpha Centuri, the pair cook up a plan to stop this whole Second Coming nonsense. Crowley has to make an important call while Aziraphale squares up to the Metatron. They then learn The Thing About Whales.

    S1 and S2 cannon compliant, takes place immediately after S2 ep 6

    Shameless fix-it fic with a happy ending.
    Smut-free, violence free, angst-lite, end-fluff and "human affection". Only a bit sweary.
