Summary
Crowley arrives at the Johnson Space Center, where he will train for a year to prepare for six months aboard the International Space Station. He is excited. Ready to reach the nebulas. Even though his past military trauma overshadows everything he does. Chaplain Aziraphale, hired three years ago for the brand-new NASA chaplaincy program, finds caring for the astronauts to be a breath of fresh air. Especially since NASA is the latest of a long line of failed parishes in a career directed by his brother, Gabriel.
Their paths collide when Crowley, after suffering a panic attack in a simulation, stumbles into the orbit of Chaplain Aziraphale. Crowley finds unexpected solace and acceptance in their relationship, and Aziraphale begins to believe he can be more than the subservient chaplain his family expects. It remains to be seen whether they can truly find their way together through the stars.

More Than We Are: Angels and Demons by altsernative, Tealbull81

Summary
The angel, Aziraphale, has been serving the same location many years. With his stingy stipend of miracles, he does what he can to aid and comfort the ill and suffering in his charge. But for all his efforts and devotion, Aziraphale is still treated as an outcast and embarrassment by his superiors. Crowley's an off-color, smoothly charismatic demon with a foul mouth and sex-appeal that could make a nun blush. His heart never been into the whole being evil for evil's sake, but he does what's required and keeps his head down. It was supposed to be a simple assignment-stir up a little trouble at some forgettable, Midwest location for a few months then move on. However, once identities are uncovered, complications ensue. Through bickering arguments, callus hijinks, and unplanned moments of serendipity, two hereditary enemies are slowly discovering they may have more in common than presumed. But connections run deeper than they realize, and Ineffable Plan had brought them together for a reason. Aziraphale and Crowley must find the strength to rise above their labels to battle an evil that threatens what they hold most dear, and untangle a forgotten story of friendship, loss, loyalty, sacrifice, and eternal love.

Summary
"It was like they were in orbit with each other. Locked into their paths. Circling each other. Coming so close for golden snatches of time, then dragged away again. Again, and again, and again."
Literature instructor Aziraphale and Astronomy instructor Crowley have been best friends for eight years whilst teaching at Agnes Nutter College, a subsidiary of Cambridge. If they ever wanted something more than that, well, they certainly hadn’t said anything. Just as they start to come to terms with their feelings for one another, Aziraphale is promoted to department head and out of Crowley’s life as part of the college's strict non-fraternisation policy. Neither is willing to give the other up, and with the help of a few familiar faces, a pub called Taddy’s that only plays four specific types of songs, Tracy, an enthusiastic B&B owner/community queer icon, and a hidden garden everyone seems to have forgotten about, they risk everything to try and find their way back into each other's lives once more.

The Stylings of Madam Glena by altsernative

Summary
It's 1977, eight years after Aziraphale said "You got too fast for me," and Crowley hasn't seen him since.
In Aziraphale's absence, Crowley helps set up the Sundown Club, a gay bar in Soho. He tells himself--and downstairs--that it's building a space for "workers of inequity," although he finds comfort in the community.
He's settled into a quiet routine of drinking at the bar every week until a beautiful drag queen captures his attention.
Crowley feels unexpected things. It's weird. And where is Aziraphale?

Summary
It's 1987 London and anti-gay sentiment is on the rise ahead of the government's push to pass Section 28 to prohibited the "promotion of homosexuality" by local authorities– including banning books and education in schools.
Anthony Crowley finds himself in a precarious situation trying to balance his job as a "fixer" for a nefarious consulting company with his growing involvement as a queer community organiser.
Meanwhile, Aziraphale Fell, current Assistant Parliamentary Secretary, has stumbled into an environmental disaster that no one seems to want to deal with– or is a cover-up? Could the Environment Secretary even be involved? Could this really be part of Her (Margaret Thatcher's) Plan?
Why do Crowley and Fell keep running into each other– literally? Is it just romantic fate bringing together two middle aged "confirmed bachelors" who thought it was too late to find love, or is there some other connection? Can they figure it out? (Are they sure they want to?)

Summary
“I love you.”
Aziraphale looked up, momentarily caught off guard. His brow furrowed faintly, and he straightened in his seat as though he’d misheard. His hands drifted to the hem of his waistcoat, fingers beginning to fidget in that habitual, unconscious way they did whenever he was processing something unexpected.
“Oh,” he said, blinking. “I wasn’t even doing anything.”
Crowley gave a small shrug, lips twitching into a crooked half-smile. “Yeah, I know.”
*****
It's game night in the South Downs - expect an evening of Jenga, Battleships, cheating and a boat-load of soft fluffy comfort.

Summary
Anthony runs The Serpent’s Spine, a radical bookshop tucked into a corner of Dalston—a haven for anarchists, queer kids, and anyone who still believes in fighting back. Locals call him “the Serpent of Dalston”: sharp-tongued, fiercely independent, and just dangerous enough to be left alone.
Ezra paints in the quiet hours of the night under the name “Aziraphale”—an anonymous street artist known for breathtaking murals of angels and half-remembered Edens. His work has gone viral more than once, but no one knows his face. He plans to keep it that way.
One speaks in sharp truths, the other in silence and brushstrokes. Neither of them is looking for connection—but their two worlds collide when Ezra enters The Serpent’s Spine looking for books about art.
A story about resistance, hidden identities, and falling in love in a world that keeps trying to tear you apart.
