    Summary

    After Fell the Marvellous’ theatre debut and the debacle over a certain damning photograph wielded by a bitter demon; Crowley and Aziraphale return to the bookshop. Crowley thinks Aziraphale is suspiciously calm while the demon is spiralling, planning how to save them from the blowback.

    ***

     

    It was a moment that encompassed lifetimes of longing, loving, and feuding. An argument over illicit Holy Water. Decades of silence. An air raid, a bag of beloved books, cases of destroyed whisky, a rifle… a photograph. It all culminated in a moment of unbearable, perfect tension. Crowley could smell the reciprocal aura of want in the air. He had sensed it earlier in the car, a bag of books held tightly by an angel with a look of violent adoration that threatened to cut Crowley’s chest open under the weight of his nervous heartbeat.

What starts in a small shack in Mesopotamia morphs into five thousand years of intimacy, secrecy, joy, and heartbreak.

    Summary

    There was Crowley - the paragon of cool, the overlord of apathy, breezing easily through each and every one of their exchanges and giving no fucks while doing so; then there was the anachronistic, cloying Aziraphale, trying and failing not to live life like a Thomas Hardy protagonist, and giving many fucks indeed.

    Or: Aziraphale has quite the pash on his colleague Crowley, who seems resolutely disinterested in him. As their annual Christmas party progresses, it appears that Crowley may not be as disinterested as Aziraphale first thought.

    Summary

    The humans were curious about him, Crowley knew that. Who wouldn’t be? Man-shaped thing shows up on your local pub's doorstep, mute, scowling, and desperate, takes up residence in its worst room for months, drinks about four bottles of whiskey a day, doesn’t eat a damned thing, and yet refuses to die - you’d be curious too, wouldn’t you?

    Sometimes he’d overhear them whispering about him, staff and customers alike.

    “Is that another bottle?” One lady would mutter disapprovingly.

    “Heartbreaking to see someone waste away their life like that,” sighed a woman to her partner.

    “Why’s he wearing sunglasses inside?” A kid asked his dad, tugging on the man’s sleeve.

    “Do you mind if I take this seat?” Asked a man at Crowley’s elbow.

    He turned to look at the newcomer. He was smiling widely, his eyes crinkling at the corners. The man’s nose was slightly upturned and his hair a crown of ruffled white curls.

    ~

    OR: After resorting to extreme measures to avert the apocalypse, a very miserable Crowley retreats to somewhere close to his heart and drowns his sorrows for months until his wallowing is interrupted by a mysterious stranger who knows more than he ought to and simply won't shut up.
