  1. Summary

    A lonely Senior Lecturer and an angry book-loving solicitor find each other - and love - through secret, forbidden notes tucked into priceless London Library books.

    This is their story: glances, confessions, all the moments that make their life together special. Big and little glimpses, highs and lows, laughter and desire and heartbreak — all written in literature, in notes and vignettes, in the margins.

    Summary

    Aziraphale and Crowley have had an Arrangement in place ever since their divorce 15 years ago. They're absolutely, strictly friends (with rather copious benefits) and they'll never, ever be anything else ever again. Or will they?

    This is fanfic. Of course they will.

    Summary

    “Would you perhaps like to fuck now?”

    “Perhaps.” There’s something wild about the way Crowley echoes the word, something wild and happy. He hasn’t gotten used to Aziraphale saying such things (not the perhaps bit, no, that’s nothing new, but the fucking bit). “Why, yes. I would. But perhaps after…”

    He sacrifices a hand, previously blissfully occupied tracing vague patterns across Aziraphale’s skin, to bring his lighter close to his nose and burn the tip of his spliff.

    Summary

    After his run-in with the so-called ‘Black Knight’ in 537 AD, Aziraphale didn’t expect to see Crowley again so soon; but here he is, causing trouble as usual. It’s none of Aziraphale’s business, really.

    At least until the angel realises two things: Crowley has been injured, and he is trying to head home. The problem is that ‘home’, according to a confused Crowley who seems under the frightful belief that he is still an angel, is Heaven.

    So really, Aziraphale doesn’t have much of a choice, other than locking Crowley up in a tower in the woods to keep him safe on Earth. If only there weren’t those pesky humans and their pesky rumours about damsels in towers needing rescue…

    Summary

    Fresh off a bitter divorce, Aziraphale fabricates a perfect marriage to get hired at a wedding magazine—just a stepping stone on the way to his dream career. It's a foolproof plan, until he needs to produce said husband for the magazine's annual couples retreat.

    Enter Crowley, his best friend's mysterious cousin, who agrees, for his own reasons, to play fake husband for a week—no strings attached, no messy complications.

    One problem: the more Aziraphale discovers about the real man behind the act, the less fake his feelings become.

    Aziraphale thought the hardest part would be fooling everyone else…

    Summary

    Five times Aziraphale and Crowley denied being a couple, and one time they didn't. Five times they parted, and one time they didn't.

    And six times Crowley tasted pears in Aziraphale's kiss.
