Summary
“Demons,” he said quietly, “aren’t s’posed to love anything. You know that s’well as I do, Aziraphale.”
Crowley closed his eyes, bringing a hand up to rub at his temple, where the small sigil of a serpent lay coiled. He drew in a long breath, shuddering and filled with grief.
“But I always knew that that was wrong, because of you.”
In the bookshop at the end of the universe, Aziraphale and Crowley have some things to say to each other - and Someone else has some things to say to them, too. (Or: an ambiguous-ending AU to Good Omens 3).

A Bird Has Swallowed the Sun by cleverjade

Summary
They lay side-by-side on the floor of the Forgotten Temple for some amount of time, lost in regret and devastation and heartache, before Impa wiped her cheeks with a sniffle and pushed herself up from the ground. “We’ll need to start our work immediately if we’re to get her back, then,” she said. “Go wash your face, and I’ll put the kettle on.”
He blinked. “Impa, the glyphs say it’s not possible.”
“Oh, Link, old friend, I don’t care what the Zonai thought was possible. Perhaps they didn’t know of a way to reverse the draconification process, but that was so, so very long ago. Think of the legends we’ve recorded over the centuries since, all the many ways that Hyrule has been saved from ruin by unimaginable power — do you think the Zonai really knew everything that would ever come to be?
“It will be hard to find, certainly, but I believe wholeheartedly that there is something in this land that can bring her back. So unless you don’t think we owe it to our Princess to try, I suggest you get up off the floor, wipe the tears off your face, and get to work.”
A lore-adjacent explanation for how Zelda might have been restored at the end of Tears of the Kingdom.

Summary
Confirmed bachelor Anthony Crowley has sworn off romance, but he's willing to set his disdain aside to celebrate the nuptials of his friend, Anathema.
Unlucky in love, Aziraphale Fell is doing everything in his power to make sure the wedding of his closest friend, Newt, goes off without a hitch.
Neither of them expected to come face to face with the ex they loved and lost eleven years ago.
–
“Anthony J. Crowley.” There was a note of accusation in Aziraphale's voice as he called out the name.
The tone stopped Crowley’s descent and a huge grin lit up his face. It was a thing full of teeth longing for an excuse to bite.
Aziraphale continued, using his words to establish the separation he was determined to maintain. “Tell me, have you turned respectable or are you still playing at being a flash bastard?”
For his part, Crowley looked delighted, obviously taking the statement as a challenge.“Wut,” he called, stretching the word out, sounding almost playful. “Aziraphale Fell!” He enunciated every syllable of the name and smiled the whole way through. “As I live and breathe. Well, I’m sure you’re respectable enough for the both of us.”

Summary

It hurts. Until it suddenly doesn’t.

Old habits kick in, but how can Crowley save someone whose existence has been destroyed and forgotten?

Summary
Significantly warmed from the whiskey but nowhere near as pissed as he’d like, Crowley is alert enough when he approaches the cottage to recognize the unfamiliar, decidedly angelic presence lurking somewhere on his property. Crowley had been very careful when he moved in, placing strict wards against every creature both holy and damned. Except one.

Summary
Crowley folded his newspaper and accepted, with grim resignation, that he would have to try and save the world. It wasn’t that he particularly wanted to do it again; the first time had been bad enough and he’d needed an eleven-year-old to do the hard bit. He didn’t feel any kind of great love towards all living things at the moment, or have any heroic feelings. He simply knew that nobody else would do it.
And Aziraphale, who had stumbled his way into the centre of it all, would be trying desperately not to let it happen and failing, because Heaven wouldn’t let him succeed. One more time, and he resolved that it would be the very last time, Crowley would have to fix things for him.

Crowley goes on a road trip across America to delay the Second Coming. Aziraphale tries to teach angels about humanity. In between, they talk.Bookmarked by StronglyLetteredWord

Summary
After Aziraphale goes back to Heaven with the Metatron, Crowley reflects.
And 4,400 years ago in 2407 BC, in the city of Uruk in ancient Sumer, he and Aziraphale fall in love with humanity, and each other.
“What are you doing here?” asked Aziraphale.
Crowley felt himself start to smile. “I should ask you the same. What are you thinking, coming here with your wings out and the blessed light of Heaven raining down upon you? You’re scaring the mortals.”
Aziraphale blushed. Crowley dutifully looked away. It felt disrespectful not to.

Summary
Aziraphale slowly looks from the knife to Crowley’s face. “Holy water.” His voice sounds distant and strange, as if he’s hearing it from outside of himself. “The knife. It’s coated in holy water.”
Crowley’s smile is thin and bitter. “Yes,” he says.
In the aftermath of the Apocalypse, Crowley is just trying to find his feet after losing his day job. Unfortunately for him, not every demon was convinced by Aziraphale’s little show during their Trials—and that disbelief proves to be deadly. Aziraphale just wants to read books and revel in a life of freedom. But when Crowley’s hurt, all of his efforts become a race against time to heal him before it’s too late.

“I read the books about you,” Muriel said matter-of-factly.
Crowley wasn’t following. “The books about me?”
“The letter books to Aziraphale’s friend Diary? You must know them. They must be an angel, but I don’t think I’ve ever met them before.”
Crowley coughed heavily. “You’ve read Aziraphale’s diary?”

scherzo in f-sharp minor, for orchestra by astrhae

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.
