    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

    “It’s bad luck, you know?” Crowley nudged him. “In Scotland. Or was it Wales?”

    Aziraphale frowned, stretching his wings to keep his balance, as he turned to Crowley, to ask:

    “What’s bad luck?”

    “Having a redhead be the first to walk in your door,” Crowley answered. Even on the slanted dome of St. Paul’s Cathedral, he still managed to sit sprawled, his legs stretched out to one side as his back leaned against the foot of the cross atop the dome. “That is, the first to walk in during the new year.”

    Cathedral grounds were consecrated – but their rooftops, Crowley had discovered a few centuries ago while tracking down a wayward angel, were free real estate.

     

    ---------

     

    Or, Crowley and Aziraphale can’t make stars – not anymore. They make do with what they have, anyway. (Three times Crowley sits beneath Aziraphale's wing.)

    Summary

    “Don’t mention it,” Crowley tried his best to scowl, but the bench was far too small, and he could feel the warm press of Aziraphale’s thigh against his, and it was hard to look at the piano keys when Aziraphale was right there, all sharp aftershave and burning grace. “I mean, don’t. We’d both be in trouble.”

    Aziraphale’s gaze drifted down to Crowley’s hands. “Do I know this song?”

    -----------

    Or, in 1804, Aziraphale finds Crowley in the Gardens of Versailles. With the palace deserted after the French Revolution, Crowley tries out a few crown jewels in the bedroom, Aziraphale might or might not be the inspiration for a sculpture, and they break into the secret wine cellar for some secrets of their own.

    There’s only one tiny problem: the miracle blocker on the angel.

    Summary

    It was a truth universally acknowledged that an angel in possession of no memory must be in want of a wife.

    No, that was the wrong book. The wrong line. Aziraphale frowned.

    “What,” the gentleman before him asked, “and I mean what, are you doing here?”

    -----------------

    Or, two years after things fall apart, Aziraphale shows up at Crowley's doorstep without his memories. The easy part is getting it back, the hard part is getting them back together.

    (Update: now featuring a cover by the wonderful @ineffableclassics!)

    Summary

    It’s 1946, and Crowley is undercover on the Orient Express to capture an Archangel, Aziraphale is just trying to enjoy an illicit vacation, and the Archangel Hanael – commander of Heaven’s Principalities – is just trying to do an audit of Earth’s new nations.

    -------

    Or, in which Aziraphale and Crowley try very very hard to convince an Archangel that they aren’t in any relationship of any kind.

    This, in theory, should be simple: it is the truth, after all.

    This, in practice, goes down faster than a lead balloon.
