    Summary

    1521- Aziraphale has been working as an interpreter for the Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés in his mission to bring Mexico under the heel of Spanish colonialism and the Roman Catholic Church. When they arrive in the wondrous city of Tenochtitlán, the angel is shocked to discover that Cortés and his invading army have been invited to stay. Even more disconcerting is that invitation was the suggestion of a demon posing as the Aztec high priest for the god Quetzalcóatl, the winged serpent. Naively believing peaceful coexistence is a possibility, Aziraphale and Crowley bear witness to the Toxcatl massacre and the Fall of Tenochtitlán.

    Summary

    Aziraphale leaves for Heaven to help with The Second Coming, but not everything Upstairs is as it seems. Crowley runs away from his problems until he is suddenly summoned by a trio of unlikely friends trying to save the world (again). Through misadventures, imprisonments, immortal attempted suicide, lucid dreaming, dealing with teenagers, and an off-putting amount of bebop, an angel and a demon try to find their way back to each other as Heaven and Hell close in around them. (I'm aware that this starts off slow. It starts getting good around chapters 5-6, but the Epilogue might be my favorite part.)

    Summary

    The season 2 finale was gutting so I'm taking these two ineffable idiots and patching things up between them. Slowly. With angst. And Muriel. And ultimately, a happy ending.

    This kicks off from the end of season 2. First fanfic so hopefully someone enjoys reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!

    Summary

    Aziraphale shows up to Crowley's flat, two years after returning to Heaven, asking for Crowley's help. Crowley isn't exactly receptive.

    “I would never abandon humanity,” Aziraphale says, dark and low. “I’ve already stopped Armageddon once. I will not let it happen again.”

     

    Crowley takes a step back. Aziraphale follows, fire burning in his eyes.

     

    “I’m not the one who left first, Crowley. Remember that before accusing me of choosing sides. I watched you turn your back on me and walk out of that bookshop long before I went to Heaven.”

     

    “You wanted me to go back there!” Crowley bares his teeth, angrier now. “You wanted me to go back to the place that cast me out, that tried to destroy the world once, that tried to destroy you!”

     

    “And you were asking me to leave it all behind — Heaven, the humans, the bookshop — to go to the stars!”

     

    “But we would have been together!”

     

    “Yes, together when the universe ended because we weren’t here to stop it!”
