    Summary

    "Hello," Aziraphale says. His mouth is doing something knotty, warring between a frown and a rote, polite smile. He fidgets his fingers together and ends up blurting, "When did you - What are you doing here?"

    Crowley swirls what's left of the wine in his glass. "Fraternizing, angel," he says, lazily.

    Jerry and Osgood landed in London looking for an English Christmas and a few good parties. Aziraphale thought he'd meet up with an old friend, and Crowley thought he'd make some new ones. Neither of them counted on running into each other. Twice.

    And Crowley knows what they say about threes. They haven't had a real conversation since the argument in St. James park, but he's going to have it out with Aziraphale once and for all. Even if he has to follow the angel into a garden to do it.

    Summary

    "Are you going for the course?" Lovegood asked. "You have the NEWTs.”

    “What course?” Draco said, then, “No, don’t be ridiculous,” when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board he’d been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizard’s Office By August 24th.

    “Oh, I thought you might,” she said. “Well, goodbye.” And off she wandered again in her addled way.

    Summary

    “I would ordinarily say ‘allow me to save you from yourself,’ ” she continued, “but one must be prepared to compromise for the sake of a desperate case.”

    “The gods forfend you should compromise, Miss Fisher,” he managed, almost certain, all at once, of what she was going to say and how she was going to say it and what it was bound to do to him.

    Summary

    An angel discovers a letter with a clear instruction: "Burn before reading."

     

    Crowley and Aziraphale, a demon and an angel, are adversaries in charge of humanity under their respective offices. However, they develop an unexpected correspondence. What begins as taunting evolves into a deep, weighty, and romantic bond that could alter the course of humanity.
    Both Heaven and Hell closely monitor Earth through various operatives. Revealing their connection would lead to their death. In the ongoing war between the up and down, victory is imperative. That's the nature of war, isn't it?

    Time War AU

    (Based on the book "This Is How You Lose The Time War" by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone)

    Summary

    But Melkor came nigh then, and pressed himself against Mairon’s back, so that he needed to bend to speak in his ear, and his cloak of darkness drew about them. To any who might have seen, those two together were a sight of surpassing beauty. Mairon was as if a brand of gold and orange and yellow, a blazing star amid Melkor’s darkness, made the brighter and hotter by it, and the blackness in which Melkor arrayed himself seemed an endless, velvet void.

    Summary

    A few months prior to leaving the Dowling household, Crowley had downloaded Grindr for the sole purpose of catfishing randy morons. He was not expecting a paragraph that began with: ‘hello. I hope you don’t think this is too forward, but I couldn’t help but notice you have the most lovely nipples.’

     

    Crowley keeps trying to meet his Grindr fuckbuddy. Aziraphale keeps showing up at all his meeting spots. This is terrible.

    Summary

    Aziraphale has read every book in his shop at least once. He has reread some of his favored volumes dozens of times, has memorized whole great swaths of them. If his own words are insufficient to convince Crowley of his sincerity, then perhaps the words of others can!

    (He might have the decency to ask the books what they thought of this plan. The books had been watching the two of them for over a hundred years, and certainly had a great deal to say on the matter. But Aziraphale neglects to consult them, and thus will be very unprepared for what happens next.)

    Back on earth, Aziraphale tries to apologize.

    “Would you care to do the honors?” the Metatron asks.

    'Contrary to popular belief, the wings of demons are the same as the wings of angels, although they’re often better groomed.' For Aziraphale, it's about kindness. For Crowley, it's about temptation.

    Summary

    The Bowerbird wasn't playing fair; Jack couldn't debate these pieces of paper. He couldn't tell pieces of paper and a growing pile of feathers that he, too, remembered the rare treat that was eating a single piece of tropical fruit in the heavy heat of a Christmas afternoon, stickying his best suit of clothes, which had been so clean and pressed for church that morning.

    (In which Inspector Jack Robinson is having a fairly uneventful year, divorce notwithstanding, until he acquires a lady doctor for a drinking buddy and receives a series of flirtatious notes from a jewel thief.)

    Summary

    Crowley had only intended to see Aziraphale home and make sure he'd scheduled their next lunch. But the adrenaline of the day before hadn't quite worn off. And there'd been the sense of loss he'd felt as he turned to go, and the stunned catch of breath when he realized he wasn't the only one who'd turned and headed straight back to the only creature in the universe he couldn't stand the thought of losing.

    Summary

    The first time he picked up his telephone and didn't hear Joan or one of the other ladies greet him, he just rolled his eyes, assumed they were cross with him, and firmly asked for the shop he was trying to connect to into the receiver like normal. He even said please! And the thing about being a being of considerable occult power with a history of shaping parts of the universe is that, sometimes, the world bends to oblige you.

    So, the only thing that surprised him about Fell answering the line in response to his demand for "an expert on ancient greek and roman preparations of oysters" was that they'd made long-distance calls considerably less bothersome at some point.

    OR

    Crowley is a big fan of technology but has zero idea how it works, which leads to him developing an unlikely friendship with a fussy bookseller who happens to be an expert on a miraculous number of subjects.

    Summary

    Every 300 years, Heaven and Hell share a company retreat on Earth during which angels and demons temporarily surrender their celestial powers.

    Officially, it’s a time for fostering team unity and better understanding the needs of the client base. It’s definitely not a time for terrorizing the hotel staff with divine/diabolical showdowns, abusing the ethereal expense account, or furiously snogging your hereditary enemy. But when Aziraphale and Crowley are up for promotion, Hell breaks loose and Heaven might just break free.

    “It’s just,” he continued, “I’ve noticed that humans—some humans, anyway—they use that word, angel, as a…well, as a sort of…endearment.”

    “Do they?” said Crowley, who had invented using the word as an endearment in the 13th century AD.
