Summary
Aziraphale has carried the black star sapphire since the fourteenth century. Something about its dark depth with the gold shimmering within reminds him of... well. It's no good thinking too hard about impossible things.
Until the Antichrist has failed to end the world, and everything is suddenly possible.

Summary
Crowley takes another sip of wine. Licks his lips again. Aziraphale shifts on his feet and directs his gaze pointedly down at his feet, and—and the floor is rather interesting. Yep. Very, very interesting.
Not as interesting as Crowley’s lips—
“So,” Crowley starts, swallowing down another sip of wine. Aziraphale’s head shoots up at the sound of Crowley’s voice, his gaze shooting right to Crowley’s face.
Aziraphale's first sip of wine comes alongside a few other firsts, it so happens.

Summary
Crowley wants to figure out what he did to drive Aziraphale away (nothing, silly boy!), so he turns to the obvious source for all love advice, Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, and begins a campaign of writing love letters. With... questionable results. At first.

Summary
“As you may know,” Muriel started, “as a human police officer, I can unobtrusively monitor your marriage without raising suspicion.”
Yes. What? Aziraphale stared. “Marriage?”
“On whether it’s being,” Muriel hesitated, eyes cast up as they searched for the right word, “consummated properly.”
-------------
Or, after the Antichrist cancels Armageddon, Heaven and Hell come up with a peace treaty. Traditionally, treaties involve a marriage between representatives of each side. It goes about as well as you might expect.

Summary
Aziraphale felt his cheeks flush pink. “Yes. Well. It appears to be a curse for a cheating lover. The design is to create an ever-increasing obsessive need for the person who—”
“I’m well aware of what it does,” Crowley interrupted. Aziraphale glanced up from the book and took in Crowley’s stance, the apparent lax posture belied by the way he was clutching the edge of the countertop with white knuckles. Aziraphale swallowed.
“Is it…” Aziraphale faltered, then tried again. “Is it…” painful is how he told himself he wanted to finish the question. There was no other possible word to end that question that Aziraphale wanted to know.
“Don’t play dumb, angel. It doesn’t suit you.” Crowley’s voice was low, an edge of something to it that Aziraphale hadn’t heard since the Tadfield airbase, the moment Crowley was ready to give up and accept the apocalypse. He met Aziraphale’s eyes. “You know who I want.”

Summary
It was at his 60th centennial review—Crowley had prepared a grandiose speech about his work in the Cold War (not him at all), gas prices, and the M-25—when Beelzebub walked into their office and slapped a file into his hands before slouching behind their desk. Which, not-so-shockingly, was made of bones.
“A seduction?” Crowley said, looking down at the file with a frown. He hadn’t been given a seduction in nearly two thousand years.
“Not just any seduction,” Beelzebub said as they flopped into their chair and folded their hands in their lap.
Crowley flipped open the file and then nearly dropped it. “You want me to seduce an angel? Why?”

Summary
“Stand up?” he echoed, incredulous but too undone by sensation to express the full force of his disbelief. “I can barely even remember my own name after that, and you want me to stand up?”
“Your name is Anthony J Crowley, apparently, although you never did tell me what the J stood for so I can’t help you there,” he said, not hiding his smile. “Do stand up, I promise you’ll like it.”

Summary
Nearly simultaneously, two thoughts had immediately crossed Aziraphale’s mind the moment their lips had touched.
First: This is mad. This is impossible. Or: this is only possible because Crowley believes that loathsome demon Ferngully (?) to have the photograph. A task he’d very nearly succeeded at, if not for Aziraphale. A task that Aziraphale had been excited to reveal, and now, in a tragic turn of events, it’s the very thing he needs to keep hidden if he wants to continue kissing Crowley.
Which leads him to his second realization: Crowley cannot, under any circumstances, discover the photograph.

Summary
Crowley goes too slow, Aziraphale drinks copious amounts of alcohol, and the bookshop is (very nearly) set on fire. Again.
- - - -
"Aziraphale is not one to overindulge in alcohol.
Except for when the occasion really calls for it.
And this one does.
Because - because -
He wants Crowley. He wants his companionship. He wants him here, now. He wants Crowley - he wants. He wants-
Another glass of wine. By now he’s lost count.
Because Crowley is not here. Aziraphale could call him. He could, but - but. Aziraphale is in no state. Probably. And besides, Crowley cannot come. Not tonight, at least. Maybe never. Crowley drove off, after all. Maybe Aziraphale has waited too long. Maybe he’s gone too slow.
And this thought is painful enough to warrant another drink. Or three.
He’s drunk his way through a Chateau Pontet Bordeaux red blend, an Albert Mann pinot noir, the Monsanto Chianti Classico Riserva, and half of the crystal encased Glenglassaugh whiskey by this point, and he’s fine. He is. Really. Even if the room has begun to sway around him."

Summary
After spending six thousand years in Aziraphale’s company, the only thing Crowley’s sure of is that he can’t touch the angel without hurting him. Too bad he never bothered asking Aziraphale about it.
If Crowley could still feel the soft give of rich cloth under his clenched fists, surely Aziraphale could still feel the scorching heat of a demon’s hands on his skin.
If they made it out of this alive, Crowley decided, if there was anything left of the world afterwards, he’d be damned a second time if he ever put his hands on the angel again.

Summary
Here in the South Downs cottage, Crowley has more than he ever thought he would: the two of them, safe, and he gets to live alongside Aziraphale every day. He still can't bring himself to say it, though, still finds himself wanting, doesn't want to drag the angel down with the mess of his love, doesn't want to ruin what they have.
Aziraphale, however, is getting tired of Crowley staring longingly off into the night sky, and confronts him.
There is more of a balance here than Crowley thought.
***
The angel smiles. That crinkling kindness, that laugh in the corner of him, bright and deathless and pure, and Crowley’s resolve is melting. Aziraphale does remove his glasses now, fingers brushing his temples, folds them into his own pocket, pocketing Crowley’s last defense. Neither of them looks away. The night sounds clutter around them, the sway of elderly oak branches, the gentle scuttle of a village turning itself into bed, reinventing for the next day, the caw and croon of things with feathers, searching for love. A knowing hum in an ancient throat, leaning in.

Summary
Crowley has spent thousands of years indulging in Aziraphale’s presence, has spent thousands of years bending toward his light like a pathetic flower desperate for the sun. How has he not grown a tolerance yet? Shouldn’t he have a little self preservation instinct? It’s a good thing he’s not human, otherwise Crowley would have been lost to Darwin’s Law sometime around 2500 BC.
OR Angel Crowley appears in a heartbroken Crowley's apartment. Aziraphale comes to terms with Crowley's Fall.

Summary
Crowley absolutely isn’t wallowing in self-pity. There are plenty of reasons for a demon to take a very long nap on a certain sofa in a certain shop. If the humans around him are concerned about the ripe odour and his spot-on impression of a pile of alcohol-soaked blankets, well, that’s their issue, not his. Then again, maybe Nina is right: stretching his wings after so long Earth-bound would feel glorious and might provide much needed fresh air and perspective. It's not like a certain archangel is going to be hovering in the cloudline over Soho.
Except, of course, he is.

It wasn't as though his interest in Aziraphale was entirely appropriate. Of course it wasn't bloody appropriate. He was consorting with the Enemy, nothing about it was appropriate.
