    Summary

    1941 is the London Blitz and the year that MI5 really comes into its own with the now infamous ‘double cross’ system. The service keep tabs on suspects, root out enemy agents and try to turn them into doubles.

    Anthony J Crowley is fucking great at this job. He can be sneaky, underhanded and damn ruthless but also charming and kind. It’s what makes him good at turning.

    Aziraphale is just a regular Soho bookseller who loves his shop and books and good food and wine when he’s approached by a woman claiming to be MI5, wanting to recruit him for espionage. The poor man is too trusting and gets the shock of his life when he’s approached by a charming but dangerous-looking man also claiming to be MI5.

    Crowley recruits Aziraphale to double cross a double crosser and Aziraphale takes to espionage like a duck to water.

    Danger, hijinks, and sex ensue.

    Summary

    Crowley fantasized that when (if) Aziraphale came crawling back, he would slam the door in his face. Yet when Aziraphale shows up on his doorstep, reeking of sulfur and faintly smoking, all he says is “Crowley, please—” before Crowley’s got an arm looped around his back, helping him in.

    Summary

    It's difficult to offer yourself up on a platter without seeming at least a bit desperate.

     

    In which Crowley has such a lovely time introducing Aziraphale to the pleasures of food and drink, that he has to try just one more thing.

    Summary

    It’s a pleasant evening much like many pleasant evenings this month, so Crowley doesn’t expect anything unusual when he makes himself comfortable on his side of the couch and lets Aziraphale select the wine.

    Which is why he’s resolutely caught off guard when Aziraphale disappears into a backroom, which Crowley always assumed was a wine cellar, and then turns around, darkness behind him and low, warm light gilding his hair and making his eyes bright. He’s breathtaking, he’s so beautiful, his eyes are so dark.

    “Crowley,” he breathes.

    Or, Crowley and Aziraphale have sex.
