    Summary

    Aziraphale has problems. No one needs to tell him so; he's well aware that his issues are many and in-between. He's an agoraphobic shut-in with a bad back and a sad past. It's a rule that, to most, he isn't much worth the effort of getting to know. Crowley doesn't seem to abide by any of that. He's an enigmatic gardener with a green thumb and a smile a thousand miles wide. It's something like love at first sight; if that included a panic attack and a minor foray into bird watching.

    Aziraphale is smitten, now if only he could get past his fears and admit it.

    Summary

    Inn proprietor Aziraphale finds Crowley insufferable. The man is rude and arrogant.
    Cafe owner Crowley despises Aziraphale. The man is posh and fussy.
    When the National Witch Association is snowed in at Heathrow Airport and is unable to attend the Solstice Dinner event that they booked and paid for, Aziraphale decides to take the chance and invite the lovely people of Tadfield to spend the night at the Inn. If he extends the invitation to Crowley and his niece, it's only out of kindness towards the latter.
    Certainly it isn't because he's in any way attracted to Crowley, no. No.

    The premise of this story is very loosely based on one of our (both, Di’s and Hogs’s) favourite Gilmore Girls episodes The Bracebridge Dinner. You absolutely don't have to be familiar with the show to enjoy this fic, but if you are you might recognise a few references and Easter eggs. No, RP Taylor is not a misspelling. Apart from the bare premise and some references, the two stories don't really have much in common.

    Summary

    After an embarrassing, champagne fueled one-night stand, in which he was fairly certain nothing actually happened, bookshop owner Aziraphale Fell escaped to his quiet village life, secure in the knowledge that he’d never lay eyes on London-based gardener Anthony Crowley again.

    What were the odds that Gabriel Archer, new owner of the village’s richest estate, would hire both of them the same week? Very, very low...but not impossible!

    THIS STORY IS NOW COMPLETE.

    Summary

    After thwarting not just one, but two apocalypses, Crowley's life is good, he has his Bentley, his cottage, his plants and his hobbies.
    He decides to capture the ineffable beauty of Aziraphale on a canvas, discovering that the angel is not as innocent as he believes. And Aziraphale discovers a facet of the demon that is very difficult to deal with.

     

    "-Of course you remember that movie! You like that Canadian film director and I really like Miss Winslet - Crowley heard the characteristic sound of someone settling into the cushions and held his breath - You complained for the next 3 years about creative licenses and how Dagon had stolen the credit for that terrible event from a low-ranking demon -

    - Yes, Angel, I also complained about how someone as poor as Jack Dawson couldn't have drawn any little French prostitute without offering money, in addition to his obvious fetish with hands... - Crowley pretended to draw by moving his arm on the canvas without touching it, but he still didn't look at the angel.

    -You don't need any of that to draw me, my dear, so...I want you to draw me like one of those French girls...-"
