Hello again! I send two asks some months ago, but at this point I think they were swallowed whole in the dark depths of this wicked site. So I’ll put them together here: 1) do you know some good fics with Crowley and fem!Aziraphale? and 2) good fics set in Ancient Rome? Thank you so much, and keep up the good work!
Do you know of any works featuring Femme!Aziraphale? I read serpent and the lady by summerofspock and now I kinda want more.~ @wearestarstuff618
Hi hi!! Do y’all have any recs for BAMF female presenting Aziraphale? Preferably within the canon universe (or canon adjacent lol). Thank you so so much!! ~ anon
I used this Female-Presenting Aziraphale tag to find some fics and this Female Aziraphale tag as well. Here’s some of what I found:
Coping With a Recalcitrant Bloodsucker by ZephyrOfAllTrades (M) - wip
'Get out there and impale some hearts.' Quite a romantic phrase for something so bloody…. well, bloody.
Aziraphale Van Helsing had yet to kill her first vampire. Despite her family lineage, she would rather attack a box of chocolate than the undead. That is, until misunderstandings labeled her as 'compromised' and married off to an insufferable one.
Anthony Crowley, Duke of Glasgow and vampire-demon, vowed only to marry the one worthy of being his eternal vampire bride. Cue one night of passion(ate drinking - disappointingly just that and nothing more), and he wondered if permanent discorporation is better than years being shackled to a Van Helsing.
As Time Goes By by teatales (E) - wip
Mr Anthony Crowley was fine with being alone. He had his car and his plants and his career as a travelling salesman, and it was fine. Even with his awful new bosses, he had no plans to quit selling watches anytime soon. What else would he do?
Mrs Aziraphale Ingels had been stuck in Tadfield ever since her husband passed away a year ago. She tried her best not to dwell on how lonely she felt as she filled her days with books and baking while waiting for the inheritance to be finalised. Only then could she consider what she wanted to do with the rest of her life.
A chance meeting, a blossoming friendship, and Aziraphale and Crowley soon find themselves falling in love with the stranger they met only a few months ago. But neither believe the other could ever love them back, and both have things they're terrified to share.
As Time Goes By is a timeless romance set in the 1950s about acceptance, being less alone than you think, and watch-related puns. Updates weekly.
The Crowleiad by PrincessDianaArtemis (E)
On the island of Antikythera, where the people were far from copious, an angel waits to welcome her husband home from war.
Here’s one that’s both Female!Aziraphale and in rome @irohasong!
kneel on my mattress by IsleofSolitude (E)
Julius Cesar's death has left a power struggle in his wake. Aziraphale and Crowley, ever on opposite sides, meet at a party and choose to find other ways to pass the time.
And here’s the tag I used to find Ancient Rome fics!
When in Rome by DarkmoonSigel (M)
They have some oysters. They then have a lot of wine. Sexy wing shenanigans happen, and then it gets weird.
Trimalchio Of The Eastern Gate by WolfieOnAO3 (G) - wip
Rome, 37 AD.
In which an angel invites a demon for dinner...
Ubi Nihil Vales, Idi Nihil Velis by D20Owlbear, itwasadarkandstormynight (T) - wip
Aziraphale was a soldier, until he was tried for treason, was found guilty, and became a gladiator. Now he lives out his days fighting in the arena of the Amphitheatrum Flavium.
Crowley is a masseuse in the gladiator schools. She hadn’t always been one, but as a slave, it wasn’t like she could choose how she spent her days. As far as work goes, it’s not bad.
When they met, they became instant friends, however unlikely it may have seemed. But when Aziraphale is offered a chance of freedom, he doesn’t want to leave Crowley. Crowley, however, sees a chance to escape—a chance for both of them to be free.
Will Aziraphale be able to overcome his self-doubt and accept his freedom? And will Crowley be able to go with him?
in keeping with tradition by Phoenix_Soar (E)
Running into Aziraphale in Rome during the notoriously debauched Festival of Saturnalia gives Crowley the chance he's hardly dared to dream of
Crowley accidentally invented the New Year's Kiss tradition as an excuse to kiss Aziraphale
