Oh, this is absolutely fabulous. I love the dramatic irony of Crowley and Aziraphale not knowing each other's true nature (and the revelation, omg), I love the premise -- so clever! -- and I love your wonderful, clever writing.
And I just have to quote this whole paragraph, because I loved it so much:
We’re not perfect sex machines, we demons and angels, mind you. We get our elbows in each others’ eyes and sometimes slip up with the teeth and fall off the sofa and land painfully, and discover the hard way our legs don’t bend like that, just like everyone else. We’re not perfect sex machines in the sense a 1926 Bentley is not a perfect car. It has those little flaws, see. Those little quirks that you get to know. You get it to fit you like a full-body glove, and that makes it better than perfect.
