    Summary

    Crowley hates Christmas. Loathes it, in fact. But when he meets Aziraphale Fell, a local artist and Christmas enthusiast, Crowley starts to change his ways.

    Perhaps it was the mead talking, or the ring of fairy lights that the man is wearing like a halo pressed into the blondest curls he has ever seen, but Crowley’s first and only thought upon making eye contact is fuck me, it's an actual angel of the lord.

    This is my attempt at writing a Christmas RomCom in the month of December. I apologise for nothing.

    Summary

    One cold night Aziraphale encounters a redheaded stranger taking shelter at a bus stop. Not wanting the poor man to sleep out in the elements, Aziraphale pays for his bus fare in hopes the man can reach safety and shelter. Before parting Aziraphale gifts him his scarf to keep warm.

    To Aziraphale, it's a simple act of kindness that eventually gets pushed to the back of his mind. To Crowley, it's a life changing encounter.

    Twenty years later Anthony Crowley is an accomplished singer and songwriter, dressing in all black except for a curious light tartan scarf. When asked about it, he always responds that it was a gift from an angel. An angel he's been searching for all those years.

    Summary

    Inspired by an old Jack Nicholson movie of the same title - a talented musician finding his way back to music, burdened by family expectations and his own psyche. This work is not going to follow the storyline or structure of the Nicholson movie, only borrows its general idea.

    Goal is to post weekly on Mondays. May also post on Fridays if I have exceptionally good writing-fu.

    Summary

    Anthony J. Crowley fell in love, almost at first sight, when he met Aziraphale Eastgate three and a half years ago. Aziraphale, however, was appalled by his reputation as a Casanova and refused to date him. Ever wily, Crowley began searching for opportunities to spend time with Aziraphale, hoping that if he can get the object of his affections alone, he’ll be able to get past the walls Aziraphale has built between them. Now he's won a ten-day, luxury cruise of the Mediterranean, and, after a wee bit of persuasion, Aziraphale has consented to come along.

    All Crowley has to do now is make the angel fall in love with him. He had no idea this was a honeymoon cruise. Or that there'd only be one bed.

    Summary

    It's 1987 London and anti-gay sentiment is on the rise ahead of the government's push to pass Section 28 to prohibited the "promotion of homosexuality" by local authorities– including banning books and education in schools.

    Anthony Crowley finds himself in a precarious situation trying to balance his job as a "fixer" for a nefarious consulting company with his growing involvement as a queer community organiser.

    Meanwhile, Aziraphale Fell, current Assistant Parliamentary Secretary, has stumbled into an environmental disaster that no one seems to want to deal with– or is a cover-up? Could the Environment Secretary even be involved? Could this really be part of Her (Margaret Thatcher's) Plan?

    Why do Crowley and Fell keep running into each other– literally? Is it just romantic fate bringing together two middle aged "confirmed bachelors" who thought it was too late to find love, or is there some other connection? Can they figure it out? (Are they sure they want to?)
