Summary: Not all angels were pair-bonded, but many of those who were bonded suffered greatly after Lucifer began the rebellion against the Great Plan. When those who followed him fell, many pairs were separated, never to be together again.
One particular angel cannot allow himself to forget his lost love, and Gabriel and Michael have no choice but to take action.
Centuries later, Michael takes further action to remedy what she and Gabriel did all that time ago.
Loosely based around the lyrics of ‘Memory’ from “Cats.”

Title: Numerically speaking, I’ve always loved you Author: Ariane DeVere Word count: 18,802 Rating: PG / Teen and up
Summary: A journey through history with an angel and a demon who are supposed to be on opposite sides but repeatedly fail to remember that they’re meant to be enemies and soon – well, within a few thousand years – begin to realise that they’re way more than just casual acquaintances.
Eleven short(ish) stories, each based around one of the ten scenes from the Episode 3 cold open, plus an epilogue. Each chapter contains the same number of words as the year in which the scene takes place, e.g. chapter 1, based in 4004 BC, is 4004 words long; chapter 10 in Soho is 1967 words long, etc ... Chapters 3 and 4 in particular are therefore very short! Total word count including 2019 epilogue (although AO3 will indicate otherwise): 18,802. Plus a numerically-related Author’s Note.
Tags: ineffable idiots, Episode 3 cold opening, Hard Times, hurt/comfort, friendship, (im)mortal enemies, they were never (im)mortal enemies were they, enemies to friends, friends to something more, idiots in love, idiots taking forever to realise they’re in love, idiots realising they’re in love, idiots uncertain how to cope with being in love, self-doubt, self-questioning, Crowley’s a rubbish demon, Aziraphale’s a rubbish angel, or so they think, and they’re probably right, humour, angst, unhappiness, death of humans in Mesopotamia, death of humans in the London Blitz, decapitation of demons (brief mention), internal querying of the will of the Almighty, internal querying of the expectations of a demon, choosing to be on their own side, finally confessing their feelings for each other, final chapter is in 2019 so we know it’ll be a happy ending, because I’m soft

Summary: He can’t bring himself to say it. They may only have hours to live, but still he can’t bring himself to say it. Shouldn’t he just tell him, before it’s too late?
Author: Ariane DeVere Word count: 3251 Rating: PG / Teen and Up Tags: ineffable husbands, missing scene from episode 5, (incorrectly) assumed major character death, angst, grief, rage, emotional trauma, then new scene post-episode 6, Deliberate Tense Change at that point, more angst, hurt/comfort, friendship, best friends, positive/hopeful ending, you can ship it if you want to, but you don’t have to if you’d rather not
Summary: Sitting in the wreckage of the burning book shop, Crowley needs to know who started the fire which killed his best friend. When he reverses time and finds the origin of the conflagration, he learns that the culprit is the last person he would ever have imagined. Later, after Armageddon didn’t geddon, it all gets too much for him. Aziraphale is there to help him through his anguish.
