    Summary

    “But y’know, if my boss finds out I’m helping you even a little, they’re gonna throw me out on my ass.”

    “Yes, I understand it is a bit of a conflict of interest for you… Is there something I can offer you in return? Something you would like?” Aziraphale questioned hopefully.

    You, Crowley thought loudly as he took a second sip. I want to know if you moan when you kiss the same way you do when you try something delicious. I want to know if your lips taste like Zinfandel.

    “Yes, actually.”


    Aziraphale is having difficulty running his restaurant, and it isn't helping that he believes the place across the street is trying to sabotage him.

    To his surprise, chef Crowley comes to him on friendly terms. Together they come up with an arrangement that could benefit them both.

    Summary

    It was Crowley, Crowley, finally inside him, after so many centuries of wanting. It was Crowley, making him tremble and then making him come. He had more than any angel -- any mortal -- could ever have dreamed of, and it was the worst kind of avarice to want for more.

    (And yet.)

    Summary

    Crowley, the best friend Aziraphale could ever ask for (and the best alpha to have on hand for all heat-related emergencies), has one major flaw. In spite of this, Aziraphale finds that he has competition for Crowley’s attention. This is... not acceptable.

    Summary

    “Mr. Crowley, I presume?” Aziraphale asked in lieu of an introduction, which was not forthcoming. The guy hadn’t even removed his sunglasses. Oh God, he had a tattoo on his face. Aziraphale wasn’t one to judge, but… what kind of gardener had a snake tattoo on his face?

    Summary

    There was always a low level hum of attraction and lust in the air when Crowley was around. In fact, Aziraphale couldn’t recall a single time, after their first meeting on the wall, when he hadn’t watched Crowley dazzle and transfix every poor human that they encountered. He’d even seen Eve give him the eye when he was in his human form, back in the day, and she’d been with child at the time. 

    Aziraphale couldn’t blame them for falling victim to Crowley’s considerable wiles. He was a demon, after all. Tempting was in the job description. Plus, he’d clearly designed his human form to be utterly irresistible to all humans, from his eye-catching hair down to his stylish clothing. It was overkill, if you asked Aziraphale. But then, he supposed, overkill wasn’t really a thing with demons.

    Aziraphale would win a gold medal in Mental Gymnastics.

    Summary

    “Aziraphale. You’re back.”

    Crowley had rehearsed this moment in his head. How he would hold his dignity, make his boundaries clear without recrimination, and they would talk everything over like mature—like ancient—beings.

    Aziraphale’s face was drained of colour, and all that mattered was a jumble of he’s hurting and I need to make it better and he’s in my arms and I’ll never let him go.

    Maybe a hint of I’ll kill the bastards.

    Summary

    Anthony J. Crowley is an A-list actor who has been in a bit of a slump over the last couple of years. A.Z. Fell is on the brink of superstardom, but has a reputation as a fuddy duddy. Their managers, Beezle and Gabriel, insist that if they pretend to date each other, it will solve both of their problems. It's only for three months.

    What's the worst that can happen?

    Summary

    Aziraphale Fell, BAFTA-winning actor of stage and screen, is bored. Bored of playing middle-aged divorcees in dull BBC dramas. Bored of answering the same questions on chat shows and breakfast television. Bored of keeping the real him hidden away.
    So when the opportunity presents itself to collaborate with up-and-coming rock band Witching Hour, he takes it, against his own common sense and the condescending advice of his agent. Witching Hour’s mysterious guitarist Crowley, flame-haired, moody, and a good fifteen years his junior, certainly seems worth the risk.

    Summary

    When Crowley gets a random text from an unknown number, he thinks it must be a joke at first. Turns out it's by a rather amusing stranger who might have an interesting matter at hand.

    Aziraphale just wants to get an upcoming function over with and not have people trying to set him up with anyone. At least whoever accidentally received his message seems to take the mishap with humour.

    2095. Britain is a post-apocalyptic wasteland ravaged by droughts, the collapse of civilisation, and hordes of the undead. Despite that, Aziraphale’s life is actually pretty good. He has his caravan, his books, and his work, offering his services to the men who stop by Tadfield on their arduous journey north.
    One day, a mysterious stranger knocks on his door. Crowley is charming and handsome and he appears to know his way around a vegetable garden. He comes with the tempting offer of a mutually beneficial arrangement. But it’s in Aziraphale’s best interest not to get too attached.

    Summary

    In the immediate aftermath of the Nope-Let's-Notpocalypse, Crowley and Aziraphale tentatively begin to move on, hoping Heaven and Hell will leave them alone in the wake of both of their failed trials.

    Of course, nothing could possibly be that simple.

    It isn't that Gabriel or Beelzebub have actually figured out how the trials were subverted...but boy, do they THINK they have it figured out. Thankfully, it won't take much to keep them in the dark.

    (Crowley and Aziraphale just have to spend eternity together, pretending to be in love with each other. All Crowley needs to do is make sure Aziraphale never finds out that everything he's saying and doing is true.)

    “Not objecting, just a point of uh, theological interest: is this a temptation? I mean are you tempting me here, or is it…uhm?”

    Aziraphale opened his mouth as if to protest, closed it again, and finally offered: “Well actually now that you mention it I suppose it is. I mean I am, yes. But temptation seems such a loaded word, doesn’t it? I just thought, in for a penny in for a pound – if they’re even watching they already know we’ve been consorting together, so we might as well make the most of it. Consort to our hearts’ content, so to speak.”

    Anathema believes she is possessed by a demon. She comes to Aziraphale and Crowley for an exorcism.

    “You know someone possessed, book girl?”

    “Maybe. I’m trying to figure that out. That’s why I came to you two.”

    There’s an awkward pause, during which Crowley and Aziraphale exchange glances across the table.

    “Well, angel, you go ahead and tell her what the signs are.”

    “I think you should, it’s your area of expertise.”

    “Me? I’ve never possessed anyone. It’s your area now.”

    “That was one time.”

    “Oh my god.” Anathema puts her hands on the table. “Please tell me at least one of you knows what possession looks like.”

    A DIWS exchange gift fic for Shadow0kana, a human AU neighbors-to-lovers request with misdirected mail as a plot element.

    Aziraphale wanted to get to know his neighbor. This was quite a natural thing for neighbors, he thought. However, it must be said that Aziraphale’s desire was rather more— desirous than might be normal. Because Crowley was gorgeous. Tall, slinky, and seductive in his black clothing, with fiery hair that hung around his face if it wasn’t put up. When he worked in his garden, he often wore just a pair of black athletic trousers and a thin little shirt that clung to his sweaty torso.
    So, yes, Aziraphale’s desire was desirous. But Crowley was so very shy.

    Summary

    In the Regency period, a lord named Aziraphale sees a young woman begging for food. Having no money on him, he gives her a bracelet that his beloved grandmother left to him when she died. Unbeknownst to Aziraphale, his kind deed was observed by a lord named Crowley.

    Crowley took a deep breath and reached out to catch the ends of the bracelet and gently fasten them. He could feel the heat of Aziraphale’s skin against his fingers, the brush of the rapid pulse in his wrist.
    “Will you dance with me?” Crowley asked. “Please.”
