Summary
It strikes Aziraphale then, basking in the warm spring sun, sipping at his tea, and watching the being he cares about more than anything work on their shared home, that he is in fact, quite perfectly content. It's everything he ever wanted, all in one place. Everything he loves about Earth. Everything Heaven would never let him have.
And then the guilt hits him.
(Or, Aziraphale and the 6000-year delayed panic attack)

Summary
In 1970, Crowley met Freddie Mercury, then met him again, and again, until the meeting became something that was far more than meeting, and too much like love for anything Crowley was supposed to be allowed.
In 2022, Crowley watched Aziraphale walk away from him, at which point his blasted car decided the only thing he'd be allowed to hear was a song written by a human he loved, about the angel Crowley had loved from the dawn of his memories.
There are things we can't get back once they're gone, but sometimes, once in a great while, faith and perseverance can bring about something that feels like reconstruction. Sometimes, we get another chance.

Summary
The story of a sick and lonely demon appearing uninvited on an angel's bookshop sofa, and all of the events thereafter.
(Learning to let yourself be loved is one of the hardest things someone can do. Crowley may be learning slowly, but they have all the time in the world.)

Summary
Once he's jolted awake and choked through his first few lungfuls of air; once he's sat and stared at the sheets for a while and tried his damnedest to sweep away the sounds of Aziraphale's dying screams, he takes a breath, and he takes stock.
Firstly: a cautious glance around reminds him that he is in Aziraphale’s upstairs bedroom. In Aziraphale’s bookshop.
The bookshop is not on fire.
(OR: Aziraphale comes back. Things are good. Crowley's dreams don't really agree yet. But they will, with time, and perhaps a few miracles.)
(An established relationship two-shot)

Guts (and a loaf of Wharburton's Farmhouse White) by YellowMustard

Summary
"Spilling your guts," Muriel chirps. "You said that once before. And I didn't know what it meant then. And I didn't get to ask. So. Go."
And they tap their book of idiots with their pen, giving Crowley an expectant and eager look.
"Ah," says Crowley, understanding. "Forgot about that. Your whole…special interest thing. Right, okay. So, when humans say ‘spilling your guts’ I suppose it means to…to let out everything that you’ve been feeling. To tell someone what’s been on your mind. Especially if it’s something you’ve been bottling up, like–”
“What kind of bottles?”
“I–what?”
“Is there a specific type of bottle designed to hold human feelings?”
(OR: Muriel and Crowley catch up after the events of 'Idiot'. Muriel eats an entire loaf of bread. A self-indulgent sequel with Big Crowley Feelings)
