    Summary

    “Next,” the kid called out and Crowley stepped out of the way, “What can I get you?”
    “An Earl Grey would be lovely,” the person next in line said, voice practically vibrating with excitement and joy, “Two plain scones. Oh, and some of that scrumptious looking lemon drizzle you have there. Thank you, dear.”
    Once again, the kid stared, and Crowley couldn’t help but turn around and stare as well – a halo of curls so blond they looked white in the light of the sun, bright blue eyes that shone with unmasked delight, a smile so wide it was almost blinding. And beige. A whole lot of beige.
    “Name?”
    “Azra.”
    If Azra was aware of the attention he was getting from both the barista and Crowley, he didn’t show it, simply kept on smiling a smile that kind of made Crowley want to do all sorts of unspeakable things, like ask for his number, like take him out to dinner, like curl up on a couch with him and eat ice cream straight from the tub while watching James Bond together, like –

    Summary

    Crowley's new coworker looks like an angel and has the inane ability to take every pickup line too literally. It doesn't stop Crowley from trying to flirt with him, even though he can barely string a coherent sentence together while in Aziraphale's presence.

    Somehow... it still works?

    Summary

    Anathema sighed and wrinkled her nose. Just because she hadn’t yet gone to sleep didn’t mean that it felt any less too early for elaborate explanations. Newt probably wouldn’t understand it, anyways, even though he would try very hard to.

    She simply said, “I think I might have broken them. A bit.”

    “I beg your pardon?”

    Or: the story in which Crowley and Aziraphale try to figure out who they are to each other, and Adam thinks this game is great fun.

    Summary

    Aziraphale balks. “I beg your pardon?” Really, imagine having to introduce a demon to the concept of plausible deniability. “We are doing nothing of the sort. This is… a purely observational excursion.”

    Summary

    The London Library is Dr. Aziraphale Fell’s cathedral of calm - the tea in the Member's Room, his notes in immaculate rows in the Reading Room, silence thick enough to hear the dust settle.

    But then a stranger dares to scrawl clever little messages in the margins of his favourite books. Outrageous! Inexcusable! And yet… somehow, utterly irresistible.

    Anthony Crowley loathes his job and rebels against the futility of life by scribbling wicked little asides in priceless London Library books, never expecting an answer.

    Until someone writes back. Someone insufferably prim, precise and ... fascinating.

    What begins as a literary battle of wits might just unfold into an adventure neither of them anticipated.

    Summary

    “Hey, angel,” the, by now, familiar voice of one Anthony J. Crowley sounded through the hallway and Aziraphale did his best to keep his face clear of any kind of emotion as he turned around.
    “Yes?”
    “Fancy a trip to Hogsmeade with me, next weekend?”
    That, that right there, was the problem. Ever since the very first day, Crowley had tried to spent time with him and every time Aziraphale answered –
    “No, thank you.”
    And every time Crowley shrugged and smiled and walked away as if Aziraphale didn’t desperately want to say "yes! Yes, let’s go together. Yes, let’s do something. Yes, let’s be friends or maybe something more."
    But he never did.
    Because, in the end, he was a Gryffindor and Crowley was a Slytherin.

    Summary

    "Once, when Aziraphale was younger and far more of a romantic, he had hoped to be swept off his feet into a whirlwind romance: to feel his heart grow asunder over the passionate thrills of love - a Shakespearean love, filled with flowery words and heated confessions. But such aspirations did not long last. In these circles of society, people married for power. For alliance. To marry for love was to condemn oneself to a life of poverty. And to find that love, out of circumstance, from the stale negotiations of a wedded alliance was above all the greatest privilege, one that could not be afforded by even the wealthiest creature in the world."

    *

    Sir Anthony Crowley has been living his independent life as a cast-out younger son when he had a baronetcy and failing estate suddenly thrust upon him. Mr Aziraphale, son of a wealthy tradesman, could be the answer to his troubles. A balance of rank and wealth, was this not just what unions were for? A series of meetings in the ballrooms of Bath will determine what fate has in store for these two.

    Summary

    Aziraphale Fell did not dream of much beyond his contented life as the owner of a small bookshop in Tadfield. In contrast, all his neighbours seemed to be under the impression that the famously rakish Mr Anthony Crowley, who had for the past couple of years been a repeated visitor of his shop, quite fancied him. Preposterous, of course. People like Crowley did not enter into relations with people like Aziraphale.

    But when news breaks out that Crowley is being pressured into marriage by his mother, Crowley comes to him with a peculiar request, leaving Aziraphale to reconsider all the notions he'd previously believed regarding the nature of Crowley's feelings, as well as those of his own.

    My name’s Anthony Crowley by the way.”
    "Ryland Grace.” He shook the other one’s hand, “ I really have to get to my next class but see you? Yeah?”
    “Sure.” Anthony answered with a quick smile and with that Ryland continued his way with his gaze focused in front of him so as to not run into another person. He figured one would be enough for today but he was rather curious about the person he ran into though.

    Ryland Grace and Anthony Crowley met in uni and immediately hit it off (as they should) and this is them kind of throughout their friendship

    Summary

    The first baby that Crawley ever held was Abel.

    He held him awkwardly at arms length, unsure what he was meant to do with this small creature he’d been handed, whose head was now tilting backward at an odd angle. The baby let out a noise that Crawley knew was the prelude to tears.

    “Don’t hold him like that, what’s the matter with you?” Eve asked, shifting Crawley’s arms until the baby was cradled in his arms.

     

    In Eden, in the Ark, on the Dowling’s estate, Crowley makes friends, saves children, accidentally becomes part of a few families, and overall just gets terribly entangled in the lives of the human beings he cares for.

    Aziraphale, in the meantime, pines.

    “You know,” Anthony said, running his fingertips over the rim of his glass. “I don’t do this sort of thing often. Or at all, really.”

    Asa blinked, confused. “Eat food?”

    “No,” Anthony laughed. “I eat food all the time. Well, when I remember to. No, I meant…” Anthony gestured at the two of them, their table. “This. Dinner with someone I just met. Dinner with anyone, really.”

    “Oh, I’d think, surely…”

    “What?” He leaned forward and rested his chin in his hand. The intensity of his gaze had Asa blushing. “You think I ask out any old bookseller I meet?” His gaze softened. “No. There’s… something about you.”


    “Aziraphale,” they said. Anthony froze. He wasn’t sure why, but he felt his heart stutter in his chest. “Do you recognize that name?”

    He couldn’t move from where he stood, one hand on the back of his chair, halfway on the way out. “I don’t– wh– nghk–”

    “He liked books, and sushi. I think.”


    The week Asa Fell met Anthony Crowley might be the best week of his life. It is also the strangest. After all, angels and demons, yellow eyes and infinitely large bookshops can’t be real. Or can they?

    Summary

    Captain Young was charismatic, he was talented, he was the pride of the admirals who admired self-starters and the despair of those who were sticklers for decorum. He had seen combat dozens of times and always kept a cool head and a calm voice, even if Lt. Pulsifer had blown the computers yet again, and he was not about to lose that carefully cultivated exterior of sensible composure simply because two of the most preposterous diplomats he ever had the misfortune to welcome aboard the Hogsback couldn’t stand to be in the same room without winding each other up into a ship-shaking row.

    In 2405, the starship Hogsback embarked on a three year mission with two civilian representatives from the planets Hev-N and Hel on board. This is the story of their relationship, told through the eyes of the captain and crew.
