    Summary

    Crowley had been doing it for centuries. He couldn’t quite remember when he started, only that sometime over the last couple millennia it had become something of an addiction. A constant itch in the back of his head bringing him back time and time again to that little box of supplies. He needed this, he told himself. He deserved this. This was fair and right. It kept balance. But really, all it did was keep the agony out of his head.

    Summary

    Crowley has worked the same soulless job for two decades, and he hasn't had anyone to talk to since his pet snake died a couple years ago. When Industrial Holdings (Holdings) PLC sends him to their annual conference in the US, he expects a week of mind-numbing boredom bookended by two torturous half-days spent in airplanes.

    But as fate would have it, an embarrassing mishap leads him to meet an unrelentingly positive flight attendant who smiles at him like he's a real human being, and makes him think that maybe, if he plays this right, he won’t have to die alone.

    Summary


    “And - thank you for saying yes on such short notice! I tried to plan the thing myself, but … sometimes you actually do need help, right?”

    “Yeah”, Crowley mumbled, grabbing his phone to write down the name of the restaurant. “Yeah, absolutely.”

    “That’s what everyone kept telling me; it’s always better with a wedding planner. I guess I should have listened earlier.”

    “Er”, Crowley said. “Did you say-“

    “Anyway, I have another call to make! I have to fire the costumer, the dress we agreed on turned out horrendous. Hey, in the future that’ll be your job! But I’ll do it just this once. See you tomorrow! And please bring suggestions for the bridal wear. Bye!”

    “Hold o-”


    The famous wedding planner Antonio Cowley is retired, sworn to never plan a wedding again. Perhaps the right sum of money can persuade him?

    He is not to be mixed up with out-of-business Anthony J. Crowley, former florist, currently unemployed.

    OR: In which Crowley accidentally becomes a wedding planner.

    Summary

    When Maggie opens a Yelp-page for Aziraphale's bookshop, nobody is prepared for a bunch of conspiracy theorists to find it. Unfortunately they do, and now they're trying to prove that the shop's owner must be a vampire, a hypnotist, or even something as outlandish as an angel. It probably doesn't help that Crowley keeps encouraging them...

    But despite that, even the sane parts of the internet seem to be having a blast following the bookshop's history through war, fire, romance, temporary abandonment, and a tooth-rottingly sweet happy ending – all through the lens of a couple of Yelp reviews.

    Summary

    A few months after season 2, just as Crowley is settling into a really good depression nap that he'd hoped to stretch out for a few decades, Gabriel and Beelzebub show up claiming that Gabriel is pregnant and they need his help figuring out how to do this whole being parents thing. Which. Okay. Fine. This might as well happen to him at this point.

    Summary

    After the failed Apocalypse, there was a spark of hope that there might be a bright future for Crowley and his angel. If only life were as simple as happily ever after. Anxiety and fear keep Crowley locked in a downward spiral, and when his worst fear becomes reality, he can only hope for a miracle to keep his and his angel's peaceful, fragile life from falling apart. For if he loses the life he had finally built with his angel . . . his whole world will come tumbling down.

    Summary

    "Why are you doing this?"

    Aziraphale's voice is faint, his breathing uneven. Crowley doesn't lift his eyes to see the sickly look on his face, the twist of pain where only joyous smiles should ever be.

    "Bandages need changing", he mumbles, eyes fixed firmly on his working hands.

    "No. I meant-" He can hear as Aziraphale swallows. "Why do you care for me?"

    It isn't just 'why do you take care of me'. It's 'why do you still care at all'.

    Crowley has to close his eyes for a second, makes sure Aziraphale doesn't see.

    "Cause you're here", he says, voice carefully detached, "and you're hurt, and you need someone. And that someone's gotta be me."

    "Why?"

    He won't answer that. He can't answer that.

    "Don't ask stupid questions."

    ~oOo~
    Or, the one where Heaven punishes Aziraphale the only way they know how, Crowley is there to help pick up the pieces, and maybe they can actually build something new and much more beautiful from both their broken shards.

    Summary

    “Aziraphale,” Crowley manages after a long moment. “Did you… did you steal a baby?

    A pause, then a hushed, sheepish, “yes.”

    “Aziraphale,” he says again. “Did you steal the baby?”

    This time, the answer comes in a wail, “yes!”

    ***

    A missing half dozen of donuts leads Crowley to discover an angel and a baby squatting in his flat.

    Summary

    ‘You always take the moral high ground, don’t you?’
    Crowley stood with his hands on his hips, his face impassive. Aziraphale flushed red and looked defensive.
    ‘That is hardly fair, and anyway, you are only saying that because you’re a…’
    ‘Oh, here we go! Not this again. I know damn well what I am, you don’t need to tell me, again. I don’t need this. I don’t need this from you…’
    Crowley was furious, his mouth a hard line. Aziraphale looked perturbed, wringing his hands in front of his body.
    ‘Crowley, don’t be ridiculous, I…’
    ‘No, enough, I’m out of here, Angel, gonna get my foul presence away from your sight. And don’t try to contact me, where I’m going I can’t be contacted,’ he grimaced and swung round to head for the door, ‘and believe me, I won’t be thinking about you while I am away.’

    “Duke Shax,” Dagon says to the demon seated on an ornate throne inside. “I bring good—well, bad good—news!”

    or: Three years after choosing Heaven, the Supreme Archangel finds himself in Hell. A heartbroken Crowley is dragged in (or, rather, Down) for damage control.

    Out there, the night still seems awfully dark, even with the light of day starting to break.

    Crowley shivers, and knows that it has nothing to do with the frigid winter night. Still, he takes the tartan blanket that’s offered to him, and -

    Wait, what?

    ***

    Summary

    I forgive you.

    Aziraphale watched as Crowley walked out the door. He'd seen the demon walk out of the bookshop a million times, always knowing that he'd walk right back in the same door tomorrow.

    This time, the door closed with a stifling sense of irrevocability.

    This time, Crowley wasn't just walking out of his bookshop.

    This time, Crowley was walking out of his life.

    I forgive you.

    Foolish. Stupid. Cruel.

    Those hadn't been the words sitting at the tip of his tongue. Far from it.

    But it didn't matter. Those had been the words he spoke, and he couldn't take them back now.

    ~oOo~
    Or, the one where Aziraphale realises he needs to ask Crowley's forgiveness this time. Meanwhile, Crowley is just trying to make the Bentley stop playing Taylor Swift.

    Crowley thought Aziraphale might have shared his feelings.

    That was until Aziraphale made is clear he wanted the angel version of Crowley more than the one he's been with for 6000 years.

    It hurt.
