    Summary

    Twenty years ago, Aziraphale and Crowley met as teenagers while visiting Rome. They instantly formed the kind of horny, smitten bond neither would ever forget. They lost touch and haven't seen each other since that summer. When Crowley applies to work in Aziraphale's coffee shop after leaving his job as an architect, they're both full of doubt. Neither wants to ask if the other remembers, let alone admit their feelings. After all, who would still be in love with someone they met two decades ago? They turn, instead, to writing down their feelings.
    But would they be brave enough to actually confess them instead of keeping them to themselves?
    How will our heroes cope?

    Lovely epistolary fic that perfectly captured the voices of our pair in their journal entries.

    Summary

    Love through the Ages.

    It sounds so simple, doesn’t it?

    For six thousand years, Aziraphale and Crowley have walked the Earth - bickering, bantering, circling each other like twin stars caught in orbit. Heaven and Hell gave them orders. Humanity gave them stories.

    This is a chronicle of the love they witnessed and the love they learned. Told in glimpses and echoes, in stolen glances and almost-touching hands.

    From Adam and Eve to Oscar Wilde’s last embrace and beyond, they drift through the cracks of time, watching humans dare, fight, suffer, and shine - for that elusive thing neither of them dares name.

    Some loves end in tragedy. Some survive exile, silence, war, fire. And some - rare, impossible - end in sunlight.

    This is not just a love story.

    It’s all of them.

    It’s theirs.

    This is such a sweet gem of a story. Love seeing an outsider's POV of Aziraphale.

    Summary

    A reverse-ish human AU where Ezra is an angel and Crowley is from the wrong side of town. But....

    >> What if..... Crowley was the one that wanted Ezra to take the Top Job?
    >> What if.... Ezra wanted them to run away together?
    >> What if..... Crowley was the one who said "I don't even like you" and "we don't know each other"?

    Or: Crowley fell in love with Ezra Teachdaire when they were 15. But no one could ever know. Especially not Ezra. 15 years later, they're still hooking up, and Ezra might suspect something.

    This splendid story reverses some actions and lines to get at the truth central to the romance between our favorite pair. It's like nothing else and I'm so glad I read it.

    Summary

    Aziraphale and Crowley meet on the day of Aziraphale's first-ever therapy appointment. Their unexpected connection has the promise of blossoming into a kind of friendship neither of the two has ever experienced.

    They have a lot of growing to do: Aziraphale’s sense of self-worth is as non-existent as his healthy work-life balance, while Crowley is so agoraphobic that the mere thought of going to the supermarket round the corner gives him clammy hands. And he hates clammy hands.

    It’s not going to be easy and it's definitely not always fun, but it very much helps to have a friend who will say comforting things—or challenge you to a friendly competition to try and get a free lunch out of you.

    [Or: Basically a QPR slow burn with lots of mental health stuff, fluff, and, for some inexplicable reason, references to the film Ice Age]

    A beautiful love story that makes the reader love the characters as much as the writer obviously does.
