    Summary

    For all our worth, mankind lacks that sixth sense which seems to guide sea birds across thousands of miles of trackless ocean...

     

    Upon transfer to Tadfield, newly promoted Flight Lieutnentant Aziraphale Fell is set to take off on his 11th operation within the hour with the mission of navigating his new crew across to Berlin and back. The war in Europe has been raging on for four years and tensions are higher than they've ever been after weeks of poor winter weather have caused more wreck than night fighters in enemy skies.

    He’d already made peace with the fact that any one of these nights could be his last but it's after one of these operations, at three in the morning, that Aziraphale finds himself staring at another man working on an aircraft set aflame. His hair is auburn and his eyes are liquid gold. Just the same as they were thirteen years ago.

    And suddenly, all such peace is shattered.

    Summary

    It’s 1946, and Crowley is undercover on the Orient Express to capture an Archangel, Aziraphale is just trying to enjoy an illicit vacation, and the Archangel Hanael – commander of Heaven’s Principalities – is just trying to do an audit of Earth’s new nations.

    -------

    Or, in which Aziraphale and Crowley try very very hard to convince an Archangel that they aren’t in any relationship of any kind.

    This, in theory, should be simple: it is the truth, after all.

    This, in practice, goes down faster than a lead balloon.

    Summary

    At some point along the way of the Arrangement, "toss you for Edinburgh" had quietly turned into "let's go together."

    As Crowley lurks in the shadows of St. Giles' Cathedral, waiting to show his angel something that will no doubt amuse him, the city stirs old memories, drawing him back to the tangled closes of their shared history in the Old Town. Where ghost stories were shared over whiskey, where long-buried recollections, tucked beneath moss-laden stones, surfaced once more, and where far too much alcohol was consumed.

    Summary

    “The Book of Life is really a ledger of immortality. When a demon falls to holy water or an angel falls to hellfire, their name automatically gets deleted. But if your name is erased…”

    "You become mortal," Aziraphale concluded, his heart beating — faster, faster — spasming, fluttering, pumping vital blood.

    -

    Part of a gambit to delay Apocalypse 2.0, Crowley erases his name from the Book of Life. When it apparently fails to erase him from existence, Aziraphale follows. They wind up as mortals, history and memories completely intact, but far from home.

    Summary

    Crowley's half of the body swap went as planned, but Aziraphale never returned from Hell. How long should Crowley wait, pretending to be the angel, not knowing what has happened to Aziraphale?

    How long can Aziraphale hold out in the deepest pit of Hell with only a revived demon to talk to?

    And who will they be, together, once these trials are over?

    Summary

    Heaven is way behind schedule, and no one understands how they could simply forget to create light, matter and time.

    Aziraphale, however, has a feeling it’s not really a matter of what they forgot, but who.

    Summary

    Of course, a 'proper' apology between Aziraphale and Crowley had to involve an over-the-top and mortifying ritual.
    What is contrition compared to pageantry?

    But that wasn't how it started. An 'apology' wasn't the original purpose of their 'Little Dance'. No...

    The ritual began as most regrets do. With an astonishing amount of alcohol, some farcical bickering,

     

    And a bet...

    Summary

    Late one winter night Aziraphale convinces Crowley to play in the snow.

    The snow crunches beneath Aziraphale’s feet as he plods to where Crowley is standing, his upturned face a sharp silhouette against the charcoal sky. He brushes the fresh flakes from Crowley’s shoulder but they are immediately replaced two-fold. Crowley turns to look at Aziraphale. Fine droplets linger where the snow has melted on his eyelashes and dusted his cheeks, mingling with his freckles. Aziraphale stretches to his tiptoes to kiss Crowley’s red-tipped nose.

    A knowing look passes between them; a quirk of thin lips and a crinkle around sky-blue eyes. They interlace their fingers while their free hands gesture in parallel, pulling at a string hanging from the sky, beckoning a stem to rise from the ground.

    “Let there be light,” they whisper in unison.

    Summary

    Since the dawn of time, Crowley’s had visions of the future, visions that always come true. It’s why he tells Aziraphale you can’t leave this bookshop, because he knows what will happen when he does. When Aziraphale goes missing, Crowley finds some of his earliest visions coming true. There’s only one thing left to do: go up to Heaven to get Aziraphale back.

    Summary

    The demon Crowley was blocking their loveseat. Well – not their loveseat. The former-traitor-turned-Supreme-Archangel’s loveseat. Or maybe Crowley’s loveseat. After all, ever since Muriel had moved into this bookshop, he had been discarded onto it, curled around a piece of human-looking clothing. Grumbling, whining and unresponsive.

    Perhaps he didn’t like angels. He only ignored Muriel since he knew they were an angel. But then, he had seemed to really like Aziraphale. Now though, he made pained, wet sounding noises with his throat whenever Muriel mentioned that name.


    Muriel is tasked with looking after the bookshop in Aziraphale's absence. And since that bookshop comes with a depressed demon, they should probably take care of him, too.

    ”First formulated in 1997, [32] questions to fall in love is a study by psychologist Dr. Arthur Aron which took place at Stony Brook University, New York. The aim? Speeding up the creation of intimacy between two strangers.”
    The Cosmopolitan

    Okay, fine.

    Crowley was 32-Questions-That-Lead-To-Love-ing Aziraphale. Sue him.

    He had no expectations, all right? Just, an innocent curiosity.

    Summary

    Aziraphale is the keeper of a lighthouse that rises above Hell’s Gate, a treacherous passage in the Great Lakes. Following an eerie séance and the arrival of a handsome, mysterious stranger, his solitary life is upended as strange and ominous things begin to happen…

    Struggling to hold on to reason as the winter ice sets in, Aziraphale is drawn deeper into a tangled web of passion, fate, and the inexplicable.

    “Stay a while longer,” Aziraphale urges softly.

    Crowley meets his eyes again. “You’re very kind.” He slides his fingers past Aziraphale’s palm to stroke the base of his wrist. “But I’m not a nice man.”

    It seems paradoxical, an angel not liking Christmas, but nevertheless Crowley knows it to be true. It’s been true almost as long as Christmas has been A Thing, and it's high time Crowley figured out why.
