Summary
It seemed like a good idea to Zhao Yunlan at the time. Take a job as a life drawing model, observe the students, try to figure out if one of them murdered the previous art professor.
Get paid to sit on a chair, basically. Piece of cake, right?

Summary
“Shen Wei…” the lantern says, and for a moment, his tone sounds fond, almost longing. Then the lantern continues in a jovial tone, “That is a good name.”
For some reason, Shen Wei starts at that, feels an odd jolt of deja vu.
Shen Wei stumbles across a lantern in the library that is always lit, sitting wholly out of place next to a window that allows in neverending Dixing light.- Language:

Summary
“Well, that was a thing,” Crowley said once they were out of earshot. Without talking about it, they were both heading down the field, towards the lake where the photographer (and likely a few more people from the TV crew) was waiting.
“That was a wedding,” Aziraphale replied, surprised at his own annoyance that somebody called a wedding a ‘thing’.
“Yeah, obviously, didn’t miss that part,” Crowley said with a shrug, and waved abruptly in Aziraphale’s general direction. “Neither did you, from the looks of it, since you’re dressed like a wedding bride and everything.”
“Excuse me, I am a—“ Aziraphale stopped himself, and started over.
In which Aziraphale ends up marrying a rude stranger who wears sunglasses.

Summary
When Aziraphale's birthday comes around he expects a book from Anathema. Perhaps a bottle of wine. Or even some nice socks.
He does not expect a series of ballroom lessons with London's rudest instructor.

Bookmarker's Notes
Well. That had gone swimmingly! Yes, old boy, insult and act inappropriately with your instructor five minutes into the lesson. What a positively perfect way to begin a month-long course. Not that Aziraphale cared if Crowley decided to cut him. Not at all. Hadn’t wanted to be here in the first place.

Summary
Muriel has been running Aziraphale’s bookshop ever since his promotion Upward. Mr. Crowley seems intent on sticking around, and Muriel has no idea what to do about that.
Then, Muriel stumbles upon a collection of sketchbooks full of a familiar redhead. Did…Aziraphale draw these? Has Mr. Crowley seen them?

(“No. No. Put that back.”
“Oh, but isn’t it cute? A little cup with wings! I don’t suppose it can fly like those birds can? I don’t see what a cup needs wings for, really.”
“You can’t use that.”
“Of course not! These wings are too small for me, and I have my own if I want to get around.”
“Wh – okay, first off, you can’t go flying about London. You’ll freak people out, cause a bunch of chaos – actually, you know what, do what you like. Heaven if I care. But don’t touch that mug.”
“Is it dangerous?”
“…No. But it’s not yours. And it’s not polite to use something that’s not yours. Not very angelic of you.”

The Ones Who Walk Away From Nevaeh by soft_october

Summary
Aziraphale is not built for administration.
He is informed of this in clever language in the letter he received this morning, although he has known it for years. He is only surprised the bureaucracy of the city has taken so long to catch up to him.
Somewhere in Nevaeh, there is a room. It is mostly dark, and damp, and dreary, and were it not for the row of plants on the windowsill, it would be quite intolerable indeed.
There is a person inside this room, who is meant to be deprived of all earthly comforts, who is meant to take on all the suffering of the city, and without him, the great white towers of the city would surely topple into the sea.That's what everyone outside the room believes, anyway.
Although the new guard, Aziraphale, has his doubts.
They begin the moment the man behind the door begins to tell him a story.

Summary
Lan Qiren's sister-in-law disappeared with his nephew shortly before the birth of her second child. Twelve years later, Lan Qiren encounters some teens and tweens in a teahouse.
.
It’s impossible. He could be stepping back forty years to his own childhood, to that very face on his brother showing how to grip a sword for the first time. Lan Qiren makes a kind of choked noise, but thankfully it must be quiet enough that none of the young men hear.Either he’s going senile at the age of fifty or--
His head is ringing, but all he can think is that the young man is the right age. It’s been just over twelve years since his sister-in-law’s second pregnancy was announced, and here is this boy, with that nose and that chin and that brow, already furrowed, just like his father...

Summary
"I think," Wei Wuxian said, struggling to shape his mouth around the words, "instead, you should kiss me."
In other circumstances, it would have been satisfying to watch Lan Zhan’s mask slip so completely. His lips parted in that lovely way they did sometimes when he was caught off-guard, and his eyebrows lifted, just for a moment, before furrowing more tightly than before.
"Wei Ying," he said. His voice was rough, scolding.
"Lan Zhan,” Wei Wuxian said. "You wouldn't let me die without one kiss from my soulmate." It was cruel, he knew, but time was not on their side.
---
Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji's first kiss, and their second.

Summary
The Apocalypse has been averted, Heaven and Hell are leaving them alone, and things are really not progressing the way Crowley had hoped they would.
Spoiling an angel is an art form that Crowley perfected long ago. He's not sure why it isn't working this time.

Summary
Lan Wangji should refuse. He should. He looks back down at the mask. Beneath it is the soft creamy paper of the invitation. He could present this at the door and slip into the palace and—
“Go see him, Wangji,” Lan Xichen says quietly, and Lan Wangji feels his resolve crumble beneath him.
A very loose Cinderella AU, featuring Lan Wangji as Cinderella, Wei Wuxian as Prince Charming, Lan Xichen as fairy godmother, the forehead ribbon as glass slipper, and GusuLan bedtime as midnight.

Summary
Possible other titles for this fic, since they summarize it better than I ever could:
Assumed mortality, and other reasons to dump people
In my defense the odds of both of us being immortal is extremely slim
Awkward Tesco reunions: the real curse of immortality
that awkward moment when your ex from 300 years ago turns out to also be immortal
You always meet twice (and sometimes the second time is after 300 years in a fucking tesco and you embarass yourself in front of the cashier)
(Aka the fic in which they are both immortal, they do not realize this, and they break up and think the other is dead for several centuries before it turns out that wait, they're both very much alive after all and also, possibly, walnuts.)

Summary
Here's the thing. Demons must be good at improv, at hiding reactions, at carrying on no matter what. They can’t show a moment of vulnerability, not to each other, and certainly not to angels. They were supposed to be tough, untrusting, paranoid bastards, or else.
So Crowley had developed a highly honed skill of automatically bullshitting, boasting, and mocking while covering up his true emotions, and it was in full force now.
“Who for? Come on, it can’t be any of those bloody archangels, they're all far too full of themselves, the wankers.”

Summary
Aziraphale desperately wants to come clean about his feelings for Crowley, but cannot seem to find the words. On a typical lazy Saturday morning at the bookshop, he decides to try to express his affection in a novel way via a series of clues supposedly for that morning’s crossword. Crowley, gloriously ignorant of the angel’s intentions, reluctantly agrees to assist with the puzzle. The ensuing conversation results in more than Aziraphale bargained for, but perhaps it will all be worth it in the end, if only Crowley can decipher that one remaining clue…

Crowley grimaces. "Nhnnnnggg, ok, alright. But, hear me out." They flick a hand dramatically. "An angel! A being who can make Holy water! Even if I can keep the whole human disguise thing up, what if they, I don't know . . . want me baptised?"
Dagon stares at Crowley blankly for a second before handing them the assignment kit. "You’ll start tomorrow. The address is highlighted, if you get lost and have to call me for directions I will direct you through at least three traffic jams."
