Summary
Aziraphale has been the coach of Tadfield Academy's basketball team for the last ten years. The results these past few years have not been the best, but the Ducks are back on top and ready to win it all!
That is, until the school board threatens to shut down the sports program altogether and forces him to take an assistant in order to change the team's strategy.
How will Aziraphale deal with the intrusion of the rude Scottish psychologist in his life? Will the Ducks actually have a chance to win the cup at all, when egos start to fight for a spot in the starting 5?
In short, a boarding school AU disguised as a sports AU, or is it the other way around?

Summary
Anthony Crowley has been struggling in the romance department. His past is a long string of one-night stands and relationships that fizzle out quickly. But it's okay, because he also has his best friends and his preschool-age 'nephew', who are all (and the best) family he ever thought he needed.
Aziraphale Fell has a careful history of first dates who don't call back because, as a preschool teacher, his vocabulary is full of words like 'potty' and 'drat'. But it's okay, because he loves his job teaching preschool, and sometimes the vocabulary just lingers even when you're on the pull.
Crowley's best friends have a plan. Well, an idea. Because who doesn't love playing matchmaker?

Summary
Gone are the glory days when space exploration was novel and exciting and respectable. When astronauts were revered as heroes. No more Yuri Gagarins or Buzz Aldrins or Neil Armstrongs. Two centuries after Sally Ride and Chris Hadfield were celebrated for their achievements, space had become the frontier of the working class.
As opportunities went down and inequalities went up on Earth, droves of blue-collar workers flocked to the skies to make a living. They put their lives in the hands of money-grubbing CEOs so their families could eat and they could afford to live on the levels higher than the smog line. By 2210 there were operations on every planet and nearly half the two hundred moons in the solar system. In 2233 Dominion Mining had built Ambition on Styx.
A mining crew and a geologist and a moon on the edge of collapse. What could possibly go wrong? Turns out, pretty much everything.

Summary
Aziraphale, a lonely anxious bookseller from Soho, walks in St. James park every Wednesday and Sunday.
For nearly nine months he has had various, wordless, encounters with a very handsome red-haired man with sunglasses.
They have never spoken, but a strange and lovely intimacy has slowly grown between them as they share the same space, and feed the ravenous ducks by the pond.
It's all been rather lovely... and then one day... the red-haired man says 'hello.'
UPDATE: Rated 'E' for chapters 13 and 16, see beginning notes for warnings on all other chapters. Reads as an ACE-friendly story through Chapter 12, though acknowledges the existence of sexuality in earlier chapters.

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.
