For Aziraphale, that idea was inviting Crowley to do their taxes together.

For us, it was opening a shared Google document and going feral.

*Minor Spoilers* I have actually been meaning to reread this series before posting about it because I wanted the details to be fresher, but because I just posted about a couple other sex worker stories I want to talk about this one now! This is another in my long list of favorites. It is a series of works that should really be read as one single work. You have to read all the parts, they're too delicious not to! There is also a fourth part to this series, that you should also read, but I did not link it directly on this post because it's an AU of this series and I wanted to focus on the main one.

This series starts off during their time at the Dowlings, and Aziraphale has been given a computer. The thing I love most about this story is the humor. I am obsessed with Aziraphale's characterization in this one. He's funny! And sarcastic and bitchy and obsessive! And don't forget, silly!! He is an absolute blast to read as he becomes obsessed with an online forum. This story features a lot of forum comments, and I really had fun with them! Well, as luck would have it, this forum leads him to online porn. Online porn of a particular creator. A particular creator he recognizes! (insert gay Aziraphale gasp here)

What follows is some of the best, and most fun, smut you're going to find. Lots of voyeurism, exhibitionism, and roleplay. Honestly I had a smile on my face for all of this. First, there is this sense of taboo, a secret obsession as Aziraphale goes through Crowley's catalogue. This risk of getting caught and how that is both frightening and arousing. And by part 2 we are getting playful and loving roleplay as they begin to share videos together. The forum comments once they start making content together were some of my favorite parts!

I just can't stress enough how much fun this one is. This author does humor so naturally and balances it with such steamy scenarios for these two idiots to get into. Obviously an after dark read, basically the plot is porn, so don't read this one at work folks.

I haven’t read this in a while to remember if Aziraphale joins him in the end, but it might be what you’re looking for, dear!

fic rec! 37K series, featuring ineffable husbands. smut ahoy

Summary: A comment about “ee-bay” from a woman in the shop leads Azirapahle to a delightful book forum, which in turn leads the angel to an artistic porn artist. Who may, no, very much is Crowley.

Comments: There’s so much to like about this. Crowley’s videos are delightful, but so is the forum drama as he lets the book forum know he thinks he knows the porn artist. Watching Aziraphale stumble in information digging is also enjoyable because here’s Aziraphale, stammering about if Crowley likes Shakespeare cuz Crowley did a film where he reads it out loud, and Crowley’s like “of course I like him, I knew Old Will.”

Hm... I’m not sure if this fic is what you mean, but is it (i’d rather be) in the palm of your hand by seashadows ?

If not, do any of our lovely followers know this fic?

Maidenhair and Ambrosia by Lurlur

Crowley and Aziraphale find themselves in the court of the Sun King, Crowley a maid and Aziraphale a noble lady. The restrictions of class cause Crowley to take the role of Aziraphale’s lady’s maid so they might catch up and make sure that their arrangement isn’t in jeopardy. Thousands of years of pining and longing are forced to the fore as Crowley finds how heavily Aziraphale relies on her maid.

A Home at the Beginning of the World by stereobone

"Oh," Aziraphale says. "I think Crowley might have moved in with me."

Strange Flesh and All That by FortinbrasFTW

Crowley laughs. He can’t help it. And the wine is very good.

“What’s funny?” Aziraphale asks.

“Are you joking?” Crowley tilts his head to look at him over his glasses. “No, nothing at all, this is all perfectly normal. Very dull conversation really.”

Aziraphale smiles back. “What’s funnier, dear boy? That I’ve considered it or that you haven’t?”

Thank you, dear!

Foolish Principality by seashadows, WikdSushi

Upon moving into a South Downs cottage, Crowley gets left alone while Aziraphale rushes to help the new proprietors of his bookshop. Thanks to a miracle gone wrong, Crowley discovers Aziraphale's greatest material secret, and a few things neither of them could ever fully face.
