Summary
This story hinges on several truths:
1. Crowley and Aziraphale must become "a thing" after the Apocalypse.
2. Crowley is a hedonist, and Aziraphale is skittish (but sort of wishes he could be a hedonist too).
3. They enjoy "creature comforts" of Earth.
4. Gabriel is a prick.
5. Hastur and Beelzebub are assholes, and kind of clueless.
6. Agnes Nutter's second volume of prophecies is presumably lost forever.This story addresses all of the above. The "real" story is about how to get Nutter's prophecies back from the fire. But more importantly, it explores how Aziraphale begins to "come around" to Crowley's gentle(ish) urging. He learns more about the creature comforts, about "seeking joy" with a lover, and explains his reticence to do so. Lots of good, innuendo-laden talks. No smut, but stay tuned for a sequel!

Summary
A sequel to "Days to Come."
Heaven and Hell are still trying to figure out how in the name of Somebody it was that Crowley and Aziraphale survived their own executions. A minion of Hell comes up with a half-baked theory, and, as they say, runs with it. Both sides begin to believe it, become extremely fearful, and the consequences for Crowley and Aziraphale could be very, very dire.
Meanwhile, Crowley and Aziraphale are in possession of the second volume of Agnes Nutter's prophecies (several of which are wrapped up in the current Heaven/Hell fiasco). They are living under the same roof, but are still doing business as usual, relationship-wise. At least "on paper," and only for now. Celestial/infernal intervention will change everything for them.
Chapters 8, 13, 14, 19, and 20 contain explicit sex, in case you care to avoid them (or skip ahead).

Summary
This story revolves around three things: humanity, comfort, and sex.
Via a series of semi-unfortunate events, Aziraphale and Crowley have become quite a lusty, emotional couple, and they have become HUMAN! In this story, they learn what it means to be human, what questions must be asked, how to live in their bodies with new vulnerabilities.
They're also reveling in bits of the human experience that feel good, taste good, look cool, sound divine, etc. They teach each other about these things, the creature comforts they've indulged in separately, over the millennia as emissaries on Earth.
But mostly, they're enjoying their life together: the domesticity, the simple pleasures, and the sex. It's going to be quite a lot of sex.

Summary
Post-apocalyptic Shadwell is living happily with Madame Tracy, but is also, as one character describes, "A hop, skip, and a jump away from complete tinfoil hat-ville."
Nightmares are taking over his brain, conspiracy theories are getting in the way of rationality (what little he had to begin with). There are folks who can help make sense of it, but when he finds that the truth is as weird as the visions, what then?
(This story takes place in the world of Days To Come/The Third Domain/Creature Comforts, in which Anathema and Newt have discussed moving to London, and keeping in contact with Sergeant Shadwell, and by extension, Madame Tracy.)

Summary
Holy Hell, the Antichrist has been kidnapped! Things are churning, feeling all Armageddony again, and the fate of the world might be in danger. Again.
Fortunately, there's Crowley and Aziraphale to help... what? Thwart? Except this time, they're at a decided disadvantage: they're human now.
Although, is that REALLY as much of a disadvantage as it seems? Perhaps not, given where all the degenerative apocalyptic action, or as Crowley calls it, "the GAC," (the great apocalyptic clusterfuck) is occurring. It's all unfolding on a very human plane of existence, where nothing actually exists, yet everything eventually winds up.
But their helplessness is still palpable. They can keep their ears to the ground all they want, but they have no direct channels to the Powers that Be... well, maybe one, but it's risky. In any case, it wouldn't do at all for them just to sit and watch, now would it? But if they do try to help, what will the consequences be for them, and for Adam?
Meanwhile, Crowley and Aziraphale are trying to keep their relationship intact... which works SPECTACULARLY well at times, but looks iffy at other times.
