    Summary

    Agnes Nutter, the famous (and mysterious) author of the book series Accurate Prophecies will do a signing for the first time in her career — and of course Crowley had to get her autograph. What he didn't expect was to find his childhood best friend in the convention, and for memories from the last meeting to resurface.

    OR

    Childhood friends (and maybe a little more than friends) meet again after years of separation in a convention. Will they find love again between all the fan-excitement?

    Summary

    They enjoy getting a rise out of each other. 😏


    "Oh, good lord." He crumpled the paper and tossed it into the bin beside the register.

    "Angel, I'm wounded. Is this how you treat all the men after your heart?" Crowley held a hand to his chest in mock offense. He had that smirk on his face that made Aziraphale irrationally annoyed, and sometimes warm in the face.. but that part wasn't important. Crowley was trying to get a rise out of him, which was unsurprising. After all, this had become a sort of game for them over the past six months, each one trying to surprise or fluster the other in various inane ways.

    "There are no men after my heart Crowley. It's just you, after my patience. And the hamsters, after my tender flesh." He pursed his lips and made a show of annoyance before pretending to straighten the shelves.

    Summary

    “Since that's all settled, the real question is did he give you his number?” Anathema laughed. “He was looking at you the way you look at lunch.”

     

     

    “Forget lunch!” Michael declared. “He was looking at you the way you were looking at him!”

    Aziraphale is content in his job as an editor at Celestial Publishing, though he could go for a bit less of doing his boss' job for him. But everything goes a bit screwy when the CEO brings in a consultant with plans to build a program that will turn the entire editorial department on its head. If only he wasn't so handsome

    Summary

    It would be a gross understatement to say that Crowley simply didn't like Aziraphale. He was posh and stuffy and arrogant, and Crowley couldn't figure out why everyone else in the program liked him so much. It hardly mattered; they were competitors, and Crowley didn't need to make friends to become a surgeon.

    It takes several unleasant encounters, the excessive use of house plants as a coping mechanism, and getting stuck in an elevator for Crowley to start reconsidering his priorities.

    Or...

    Crowley and Aziraphale are surgical interns with competitive streaks a mile wide each, and they really do not like each other at all.
    Until they do.

    (This whole fic is pre-written and completed, and updates will usually be weekly on Saturdays!)

    Summary

    Aziraphale Z. Fell is a rising star of the spiritual literary genre - the next Eat Pray Love guy - and his version of Chicken Soup For the Christian Soul is flying off the shelves. It's not that he's not grateful, but it's one thing to enjoy a career in writing and another completely to be pigeonholed into a specific genre, so much so that you are almost forbidden from writing anything else.
    So yes, maybe he has a bit of a secret. An outlet for his less... appropriate urges. And yes, if his typical readership got word of the sort of paragraphs he could put out on a particularly inspired night, they might suffer some form of heart attack typical for their age.
    But all of that is well hidden, and there is absolutely no way anyone would ever find out about his Arrangement with A.J. Crowley - the most debaucherous romantic fiction author of the decade.
    That is... until they have to pretend to be married to each other.
