    Summary

    You've never really considered your ability a superpower—you can just… read objects. It's almost like they're talking to you and telling you their stories themselves, though that would be crazy, of course. Mostly they just complain to you. All this being said, it came as a total surprise when less than an hour after getting the keys to your new house in Coolsville, you heard a knock at the door and opened it to find a short, red-haired woman holding out an official-looking badge.

    "Hello!" she says. "I'm Maggie, Coolsville's resident private investigator. You can talk to objects. Will you help me with a case?"

    "Umm, hi," you say. "Nice to meet you?"

    Summary

    Crowley takes a leap of faith… into the heart of a black hole. It’s the last card Crowley has to play. He can’t do this without Aziraphale… and he’s betting that Aziraphale can’t do this without him.

    Act I (Black Holes) ends around Chapter 6 (10 if you want the smut babes). You could leave the story off there. Up til chapter 6 you have a whole story that’s pretty much G rated.

    From there my thirst comes out like a sexy little demon in tight jeans and a vaguely downwards saunter.

    Act II (Revelations) is an attempt at season 3. Treat it as a separate work that builds off Act I. Lots of plot twists ahead/theories/speculations that I won’t spoil for you :)

    Thank you for all your kudos and comments, and taking this journey with me. Playlist for this fic is called For Aziraphale on Spotify.

    Update: Now fully edited. Story hasn’t changed but I have added a few things like foreshadowing and a bit more clarity to the complicated bits.

    Summary

    “Stop it!” Crowley yelled at the Bentley. “I know what you’re doing, and it’s not going to work!” He could only imagine what he looked like to the humans nearby, screaming at a car while soaked to the bone in the freezing rain. “He abandoned us, he doesn’t give a shit about us anymore, about me, and I don’t care about him!”

    Another punch to the gut, this one ten times stronger than the rest, sent Crowley falling to the sidewalk. He leaned back against the Bentley’s frame, breathing hard. The instinct had never felt this intense before, and that thought caused his stupid weak brain to slowly replace anger with fear.

    “You’d better be on death’s fucking door, Aziraphale.”

    ----

    After being abandoned by his angel, Crowley is forced to come to Aziraphale's aid one final time. In heaven, Aziraphale discovers what really happened in the bookshop.
