    Summary

    From that reddit: Straight guy worries he’s being homophobic to gay roommate, realizes he’s fallen in love with him.

    Or: It turns out I don't have any problems with Aziraphale kissing guys, says Crowley, if it's me he's kissing.

    Summary

    Aziraphale has been wounded while defending innocent civilians and summarily sentenced to death via wandering in the desert for his actions, but when he stumbles upon Crowley’s house by chance, his luck changes rapidly.

    Crowley is a strange and skittish man who lives alone, tucked in amongst a collection of medicinal herbs, broken pottery, and torn blankets.

    When the reason for Crowley’s caution and odd behaviour is revealed, Aziraphale can think of nothing he’d rather do than try to help him free himself from his tragedy, and the two embark upon a tender romance which will change both of their lives for the better.

    Summary

    Genteel breeding does little for one who stands last in line to inherit, especially when one is also an omega.

    Upon learning that he is to be given away in marriage to an alpha viscount he has never met before, Aziraphale Fell rebels the only way he can—by taking advantage of an extravagant masquerade ball to spend the night with someone of his choosing. Luckily for him, he sparks the interest of a handsome red-haired alpha…

     

    Written for Volume 2 of the GOmegaverse Zine. A collaboration with the artist, kaiart525.

    Summary

    Aziraphale's cat Clawly keeps mysteriously sneaking out of the house, and then equally mysteriously sneak back in again a few days later. When it occurs to him that the dates of the cat's disappearances might coincide with the days around the full moon, Aziraphale makes a plan, not actually expecting it to lead to anything.

    It is a ridiculous notion, really. The moon influencing a cat.

    Isn't it?

    Summary

    While on a bad blind date at a coffee shop, bookshop owner Aziraphale meets a gorgeous red-haired barista. Also Aziraphale knows flower language and he's not afraid to use it.

    So now Aziraphale was going on a date with someone Tracy knew. Since Tracy had arranged it, Aziraphale let her pick the place as well: Double Double, a new coffee shop. Tracy had promised that the shop was lovely and had a selection of rich desserts, which was honestly the part that had convinced Aziraphale.

    Aziraphale’s one bit of defiance was the flowers. He had a book or two in his shop on flower language, and he’d decided that the bouquet was going to be the sweetener for the day (besides the dessert), the spoonful of sugar that helped the medicine go down.

    Yellow carnations: Disdain, disappointment, rejection. Red snapdragon: Deception. Purple columbine: foolishness. White candytuft: indifference. And finally butterfly weed, a bright little orange cluster flower, which meant Let me go!

    Armed with his passive-aggressive (but quite lovely smelling) bouquet, Aziraphale took a cab to Double Double.

    Summary

    Blackballed from the industry ten years ago, Anthony Crowley jumps at the chance to star in a new Regency romance miniseries with well-known gay actor Aziraphale Fell in the hopes that it will help him restart his career.

    The trouble is, Crowley has played all sorts of characters and for the life of him, he can't figure out why he's struggling to play the romantic lead opposite a man.

    Summary

    “It’s a nice idea,” Crowley chirped, grinning a little wider and making the butterflies in Aziraphale’s stomach flutter a little harder. “Except for the part where, you know, monsters aren’t real.”

    Aziraphale smiled with tightly shut lips, hiding the fangs that grew involuntarily sharper behind them. “Of course,” he hurried out with a polite laugh. “Speaking hypothetically, that is.”

    Summary

    “The thing is, I don’t really wanna be with a fat old guy.”

    Crowley wishes he was the type of person who still read newspapers, so he could be hiding behind one right now. His sunglasses do a piss-poor job of hiding his expression at the best of times, and this is most decidedly not a best of times.
    - - -
    When Crowley (and the rest of the cafe) overhears Aziraphale being dumped brutally, he takes it upon himself to track the other man down. Just in the name of solidarity, see. It's not because Crowley's been in love with Aziraphale since the first time he saw him.

    That would be ridiculous.

    Summary

    After a very enjoyable one-night stand, A. Z. Fell and A. J. Crowley go separate ways, though memories of each other linger. More than they ought to, considering it was nothing but a casual encounter and they won't meet again. How fortunate for them that their respective work is keeping them busy.
    Having one of his more salacious novels turned into an audio book should be enough of a distraction for Aziraphale.
    As should be getting to narrate one of the famous M. Cortese's porn books – pardon: historical erotica – for Crowley.

    Summary

    There are some great quick-and-dirty guides to HTML on A03. This is not one of them - it is a comprehensive guide

    It's now 2025, a decade later. A03 supports some new HTML and and we're all walking around reading fic on supercomputers that fit in a jean pocket. It was time update this and take a crack at finishing it. (Links and Images are in, the new Audio and Video tags are not.)

    The previous three chapters have been divided into smaller concepts. Each tag continues to have - at a minimum - a link to the w3schools page about it (so you can learn more), a code example, and the result of the code example. Most tags have their attributes, things like [src] or [title], listed and examples of how using the attributes modify the tags.

    There's a chapter on Bad Ideas, including how some of the archive's default CSS is available to you to format your work (users can't turn that off by hiding a workskin!)

    Oh. And I added a bunny army. You could learn how to add one too.

    Summary

    A friend insists that Crowley is working too hard and books him a holiday in the middle of nowhere. He's determined to have an awful time, until he spots one of his neighbours and things start looking up. The only problem is, there's a heavy snowstorm coming, and not all of the rustic cabins have reliable power.

    Summary

    Aziraphale has a problem. Two problems. No, make that three:
    One, his tooth is killing him.
    Two, his dentist has left town, leaving the practice (and Aziraphale’s dental health) in the hands of some untrustworthy young upstart.
    Three, the new dentist is devastatingly attractive...

    Summary

    They barely made it through Crowley’s doorway what with all the kissing. Crowley had started it, herding him up against the wall of the lift and nibbling at the soft spot under his ear that made him whimper.

    “Can’t wait to have you in a bed,” Crowley had murmured and Aziraphale had yanked him down into a proper kiss.

    Summary

    It was one thing to suddenly learn that you had a sugar daddy, and a whole other to realise you’ve been in love with him for more than a year. But Aziraphale couldn’t be blamed for it, exactly. He’d had other worries on his mind. But with this new epiphany came another question that now had to be addressed: If Crowley was his sugar daddy, why on earth weren’t they having sex?

    Summary

    In a last attempt to find love, Aziraphale seeks out a witch to help him with his endeavour. Unfortunately, the potions don’t seem to work—but as he gets to know Crowley better, Aziraphale finds that he’s not too distressed about it since his quest has given him a new friend, at least.

    And perhaps the love he is seeking is closer than either of them had thought…

    Summary

    Navigating the dating world when you can't see it can be tricky. For Crowley, that was never a problem; he's usually too busy to contemplate a relationship. The same goes for Aziraphale, though he doesn't have Crowley's excuse - he just isn't really all that much into people as a whole.

    One chance meeting on Crowley's usual route home changes all that.

    Summary

    Crowley's got a plan for managing his rekindled friendship with Aziraphale.

    It all goes to hell when he opens his big mouth.

    **

    “I have a rather large favor to ask.”

     

    When he is silent for too long, Aziraphale prompts, “And what is it?”

     

    “So, my cheer captain was going to ask me out and I panicked and said I was dating someone and when they asked who it was I may or may not have implied it was…you.”
