Summary
The shop had gone by different names, and had different owners, but one thing stayed the same.
In the café, if one sat in a particular seat—one could travel back in time.
“You could, you know–do less drastic things, first? Write him a letter, send him some flowers…talk to him? Now him.”
"I don't think that would do much good."Inspired by Before The Coffee Gets Cold. Taken Down last August and reposted with edits.

Summary
Said I, a few weeks ago: "I feel there’s also room for e.g. bedsharing fic where the apocalypse has Not Happened and they’ve fallen into queerplatonic (or so they think) bedsharing and Crowley thinks he’s alone in being driven slowly to distraction by it, so he says nothing. Then one night he wakes when it’s still dark, and at first he doesn’t know why, until he hears Aziraphale’s breathing a little raspier than usual, and feels the very slight trembling of the bed."
And lo, that is exactly what this is.

Summary
“How did you ever know?” Aziraphale asked Crowley. “How did you know when I was in trouble and could use a spot of, hmm, otherworldly intervention?”
OR
In the beginning, God gave the angel Aziraphale a flaming sword.

Summary
Aziraphale's pulled Crowley out of countless situations that went pear-shaped when his demon was angry with Heaven and blackout drunk, but he couldn't be there all the time. Once they're safe, things start to surface. Aziraphale does his best to cope.
“I wanted to talk to Her.”
You freeze, stop struggling against what you know is the uncanny strength of angels. “Bloody well what for?”
He’s behind you, speaking close to your ear. “Things are – well, different now. I couldn’t reach Her before, but now Heaven knows to stay out of my way … Because you were me, and did it so well. I thought – well, that I might intercede for you. Ask Her to say that you’re still Hers. Give Her blessing.”
“Fuck blessings.” You can tell that hurts, but he doesn’t let go. “She didn’t do any blessing when…” When you plummeted into the darkness and the flame. Just the first time that something called itself love and turned to hurt.
“Yes. I know.” He finds your hand. The smell of the spilled Malbec is blooming through the shop. “I found myself wondering… if She might be willing to say She was sorry.”

Summary
Crowley believes fondly that it’s always his angel who needs to be pulled out of trouble.
It’s a little less one-sided than that.
By the time you get through the crowd and up to street level, they’re out of sight, but you don’t need to see them; you can hear down the alley, behind the bins: “Freak. I should cut you just for bein’ a freak. Get ‘is pockets, Jacky, that was a fat wad.” Hissing and spitting; this'll go bad quickly, but it’s a split second to take it all in as you come abreast of them: one of the punks twisting an arm up behind his back, the other tipping his head up with a flick-knife under the jaw.
That one goes down first.
