Pray for Us, Icarus by Atalan - A/C, 65k words. This is a series of 7 fics (which feels more like one long story) set in an AU where something happened to Crowley about 350 years prior to the Apocalypse, and he keeps being reincarnated as a human with no memory of Aziraphale. Aziraphale keeps finding him, even though it hurts. You get all these beautiful and sad stories of them falling in love for the "first" time. There is SO MUCH ANGST in this series but I loved the concept and there is a happy ending in the end.

Thaw Follows Frost by Chash - A/C and Gabriel/Beelzebub, 7k words. The Gabriel/Beelzebub in this is perfect because they're horrible, like they should be, but also slightly helpful. Set after S2, some time later, Aziraphale returns from Heaven with reduced powers, and tries to figure out how to make up with Crowley. Muriel is still around in this fic and they are delightful as always.

All the Stars in the Sky by animeangelriku - A/C, 1300 words. A lovely little piece of fluff in which A/C move into their cottage, and dance together in the living room.

Disposable by lyricwritesprose - Background established A/C but mostly Eric gen. 7k words. This is a very funny fic, sometimes I still think about Crowley haunting people (you'll see) and laugh to myself. But it also is very heartwarming. Several years after Armageddidn't, Eric comes to Crowley in hopes that Crowley will take them into service on Earth, so they can get out of Hell. Aziraphale shows them something better.

Sleight of Hand by racketghost - A/C, 70k words. The author describes this as S1E3 Hard Times but with pining while fucking which I think is very modest of them, because they have astonishing skill for writing said pining and fill the story with lovely details that make it feel very real. Also Aziraphale bridal carries Crowley in the first chapter which is one of my tip-top most favorite things. This is part of a series but I think it can be read alone (I do recommend the series although it is a LOT of angst so maybe pace it out a bit).
