The Accidental Wooing of Reginald Jeeves by hushedtones

Summary
Bertie is called to Brinkley Court yet again to help save Milady's Boudoir. While he and Jeeves attempt to get a lady cartoonist to contribute a serial to the old rag, Bertie keeps accidentally applying his unique brand of charm on his valet. Poetry is quoted, valets are rescued from minor inconveniences to great effect, and misadventures and misunderstandings ensue. An ode to my favorite Wodehouse conventions :)

Summary
“Let’s get lunch,” Crowley said, sauntering into the bookshop one October afternoon, his hair a little windswept and his cheeks a little pink from the chill, “what do you think, Le Café du Marché?”
Whatever it was that was waiting to give inside Aziraphale’s chest snapped like a twig. He didn’t even like French food.
“Crowley,” Aziraphale said, setting down his book with an argumentative slap. “You don’t even like French food.”
*
The world hadn’t ended, which was all well and good. If only this had. This, of course, being lunch.

The Pleasures of the World by irisbleufic

Summary
Aziraphale's fingers brushed [Crowley's] cheek, then turned his head slowly.
"I'm asking you to think it over," he said, so quietly that Crowley almost couldn't hear him. "That's all."
Crowley's stomach clenched harder. Somehow his hand had gotten ideas again and migrated in the direction of Aziraphale's waist, blindly creeping its way around, forcing the angel to lean slightly forward. This was the sort of thing reckless human teenagers did, or in the very least reckless human adults who hadn't gotten out much and were just beginning to notice how entrancing their bridge partners were.
"Won't take much," Crowley said, and leaned over to kiss him.

Summary
It's like having a curtain pulled back on something he wasn't expecting to see. A surprise punch-and-judy at an up-scale restaurant, a lobster thermidor when he's ordered an ale.
Crowley's gleefully trying to wrap his head around the fact that Aziraphale is speaking Polari. Because of course he is.
Or: The Patron Saint of London's LGBT Community is real, and he lives in Soho.

Summary
In the radio adaptation, Aziraphale is the gardener and Crowley is the nanny, and somehow they don't realize in all those years that Warlock is the wrong child.
A good approach to plotholes is "this happened for gay reasons."

Five Times John Segundus Declined a Romantic Relationship, and One Time He Also Declined a Romantic Relationship by rubyofkukundu

Summary
John Segundus knew that some people were inclined to fall in love with others. He also knew that such a love might lead to a desire to kiss (and, indeed, a desire to do other, less-than-savoury things). Not any of this was a surprise to John; what was a surprise was that these any of these notions of love and kissing might apply to him.
