Hello! Thank you for this wonderful blog. <3 I wanted to ask if you got any wonderful reccomendations for Beauty & the Beast type AU?
I know of several, dear!
Like a Moth to the Flame by Hemera7437 (T)
Running from his former pack, shapeshifter Crowley comes upon an abandoned castle in the woods, that resembles more a library than a residence, and finds himself enamored by its mysterious occupant.
Aka: The beauty and the beast AU no one asked for, but I wrote anyways.
Choose Your Princes Wisely by ZehWulf (T)
“There’s an enchanted castle West in the Hellian slopes, and apparently it comes with a prince looking for a bride or bridegroom to free him from a dark fae’s curse.”
“I see,” Aziraphale says finally, when he realizes both Gabriel and Uriel are staring at him expectantly. “You want me to marry a beast?”
Gabriel's mouth flattens. “I want you to take this gods’ blessed opportunity to secure your family’s future for good."
OR
Aziraphale is a professional quest hero who just wants to sit by the fire and read a book, if his overbearing family will ever let him; Crowley is a serpent demon who needs a gullible hero he can con into gathering some critical ingredients for a human corporation spell. Hijinks and a lot of terribly inconvenient feelings ensue.
The Rose and the Serpent by Atalan (M)
AU, retelling of “Beauty and the Beast”. Quite honestly, sending Aziraphale off into the forest to be held hostage by a giant snake in a cursed castle isn’t even the worst thing Gabriel’s ever done to him, and at least it means a change of scene. But then neither the snake nor the castle turn out to be quite what he’s expecting…
The Serpent and the Angel by Slow_Burn_Sally (M)
“I hope the library pleasssses you.”
Aziraphale shrieked, jumped and whirled around. Behind him, at the entrance to the library, sitting in a coal-black glimmering coil of shining scales, sat the largest snake he had ever seen in his life, twice as large as the average man. It’s angular head and bright yellow eyes regarded him curiously and calmly, and its thin, forked tongue flickered out, as if to taste the air.
Aziraphale felt the blood rush from his head and his vision grew white around the edges and he promptly lost consciousness.
