    Summary

    Crowley finds an abandoned newborn baby. Under other circumstances, he would have come to Aziraphale for help, but after a careless comment from the angel, their relationship isn’t at its best.
    The solution then, is quite clear:
    Look after the baby himself.

    Summary

    The walk to the Bentley is silent, amiable. Aziraphale doesn’t even question that it is waiting for them, though he’d taken a cab from Crowley’s flat that morning. Crowley had wanted it to be there, and so it is. They both slide into their usual positions, Crowley behind the wheel and Aziraphale in the passenger seat beside him. There is a certain comfort in their well-worn routine, but also something just ever so slightly changed, he thinks.

    Summary

    After spending six thousand years in Aziraphale’s company, the only thing Crowley’s sure of is that he can’t touch the angel without hurting him. Too bad he never bothered asking Aziraphale about it.


    If Crowley could still feel the soft give of rich cloth under his clenched fists, surely Aziraphale could still feel the scorching heat of a demon’s hands on his skin.

    If they made it out of this alive, Crowley decided, if there was anything left of the world afterwards, he’d be damned a second time if he ever put his hands on the angel again.

    Summary

    “On the matter of touch,” Crowley begins, waving his teaspoon in what he hopes passes for idle curiosity. “Thoughts?”

    ---

    For two ineffable husbands, they don't really touch each other much. Here is a story on why that might be.

    The book is the book and the show is the show, but I couldn't help but imagine more.
    Stories of an angel, a demon and what they might be up to after the nightingale sang in Berkeley Square. Every work can be read as a standalone and some are little side stories, but they do form a journey together.

    Summary

    Crowley doesn’t mean to kiss him, really. It just sort of...happens. An...automatic response, if you will. An unintended automatic response. Unexpected, even.

    It’s not planned, that’s what he’s trying to say.

    ~~~

    Or the one where Crowley gives in and kisses Aziraphale while he has him pinned against a wall.

    Summary

    Angels weren’t supposed to experience jealousy. Or were they? Supposedly God did, why shouldn’t angels? Why did they have to be better?

    Perhaps it was just in Aziraphale’s own view that the pedestal he’d put angels as a class on didn’t support emotions like jealousy. Too close to envy, or perhaps the same thing.

    Thinking about it in those terms didn’t make him feel any less green.

    Summary

    Adam Young was meant to be the Anti-Christ. His entire purpose was to cause the end of the world. In many ways, he was the Chosen One, albeit for a rather dark path. But he was raised completely human and normal, without any unusual expectations of him beyond being a regular boy. He remained unaware of his heritage or destiny until the very end. And though he was chosen, he did not accept his role and rejected it and his connection to Lucifer.

    Warlock Dowling was not chosen. He was born as an ordinary child, with no special skills or powers. He should have lived an average life. But he was raised with certain Expectations. Occult and ethereal entities Expected him to be the Anti-Christ. He was not chosen or fated for such a role, but reality tends to bend a little when angels and demons have Expectations.

    The apocalypse may have been averted, but not everyone is relieved. Heaven and Hell may not believe that they can execute the traitors, but they also cannot let Aziraphale and Crowley go unpunished. Unfortunately for them, two not-quite-so-normal boys have some rather strong opinions on the topic.

    Summary

    Stress can come out in the most unfortunate ways and an argument causes nearly a month of separation. Not that long for an angel or demon who have walked the Earth for six thousand years, but enough is enough. But when Crowley saunters back into the bookshop, his angel isn't there.

    But the bookshop wasn't quite empty either. And She has a favor to ask of him. And when he asks why he would do anything that She asks of him, She merely tells him that Aziraphale needs his help.

    ...Well, when you put it that way, how could he possibly say no?

    Summary

    "After the apoca-wasn’t, time carries on - as time does. Days bleed into months, and months into years.

    And through it all, Heaven and Hell remain unnervingly silent.

    Crowley and Aziraphale sometimes catch sight of them - angels more often than demons. Not because the demons are any better at sneaking about; there are simply less of them sneaking (between the two, Heaven’s always been the more vengeful). But their watchers - whether angel or demon - don’t go so far as to speak. Rather, they observe - usually from some distance, dark gazes following. Watching."

    Ch.1 A Touch Like Sunlight: Crowley accidentally threatens an Archangel.
    Ch. 2 A Love Like Moonlight: When Aziraphale is threatened by angels who seek justice for Aziraphale's crimes against Heaven, Crowley comes up with a plan to keep him safe from harm.

    Summary

    Crowley goes too slow, Aziraphale drinks copious amounts of alcohol, and the bookshop is (very nearly) set on fire. Again.

    - - - -

    "Aziraphale is not one to overindulge in alcohol.

    Except for when the occasion really calls for it.

    And this one does.

    Because - because -

    He wants Crowley. He wants his companionship. He wants him here, now. He wants Crowley - he wants. He wants-

    Another glass of wine. By now he’s lost count.

    Because Crowley is not here. Aziraphale could call him. He could, but - but. Aziraphale is in no state. Probably. And besides, Crowley cannot come. Not tonight, at least. Maybe never. Crowley drove off, after all. Maybe Aziraphale has waited too long. Maybe he’s gone too slow.

    And this thought is painful enough to warrant another drink. Or three.

    He’s drunk his way through a Chateau Pontet Bordeaux red blend, an Albert Mann pinot noir, the Monsanto Chianti Classico Riserva, and half of the crystal encased Glenglassaugh whiskey by this point, and he’s fine. He is. Really. Even if the room has begun to sway around him."

    Summary

    Heaven’s execution chamber was elegant, magnificent - and bare. Polished floors gleamed, immaculate; their cleanliness made it impossible to guess at the atrocities committed upon them. Clean, white walls glared, and a window as large as the room was tall, teased of freedom just out of reach.

    At the center of it all, was a chair.

    And upon that chair, an angel sat.

    Across the cold, stark room - too far from the angel - a demon knelt, bound.

    The ropes burned, and Crowley hissed, hunching his shoulders as he turned his head up. The angel, his wrists tied to the chair, met and held his stare.

    No, it couldn’t - it wasn’t - this wasn’t right.

    Confused and in pain, Crowley called, “Angel, you alright?”

    Aziraphale’s light hair appeared white in the harshly lit room, and his face had gone pale; but at Crowley’s call he sat up in the chair, bound hands giving a feeble wave.

    Summary

    Look but don’t touch.

    The sentiment was as old as - well, at least as old as the garden. The Garden (all capitals, mind you) is, of course, the most famous example of failed restraint - with regard to apple touching and then consumption, respectively.

    Crowley, being the original tempter, had a unique relationship with restraint. His day job was to advocate against it, seeing as he was a temptation demon. When it came down to it though, Crowley was actually very good at resisting temptations - when he wanted to. Not that he often wanted to. Demons are, after all, creatures of indulgence.

    When Crowley wanted to get drunk, he miracled himself a bottle of his favorite vintage wine. When he wanted to drive fast, he used London as his own personal speedway. When he wanted sex, well - you get the idea.

    It wasn’t often that Crowley felt the need to utilize his surprising talent for self discipline. There was, however, one very notable exception.

    Summary

    When Madame Tracy shares a body with Aziraphale, she picks up on Aziraphale’s very obvious head-over-heels adoration of Crowley. Naturally, she feels duty-bound to intervene:

     

    The guard, Mr. Shadwell, and the united persons of Madame Tracy and the angel Aziraphale watched, transfixed, as the conflagration of heat and steel skidded to a halt before the barbed wire fence. Cacophonous music blared from speakers which had surely long ago melted.

    The door swung open and - oh.

    There was a flutter in Aziraphale’s - er, well technically Madame Tracy’s stomach.

    From the vehicle, a lanky figure unfolded. Heedless of white flames, he swung the door closed behind him. The music evaporated as though it had never been.

    “You wouldn’t get that sort of performance from a modern car,” he called, flippant. As if his cheekbones weren’t marked with soot, and his black, fitted jacket, not thoroughly singed.

    Aziraphale took over their shared mouth without a thought.

    “Crowley,” he said, like a sigh after a long held breath.

    They’ve averted Armageddon, dodged the fiery bullet from their respective sides, and are now going to get lunch— right after Aziraphale showers off the stench of hell.

    Cue, Crowley barging in a little too soon and learning more than he had ever thought possible.
