What do mean the Ruin DLC just confirmed Freddy and Bonnie were a thing
crowley avoiding the bookshop like it's consecrated ground is definitely one of my favourite options for how he deals with the break-up but have you considered the opposite?
he returns to tell muriel how to take care of it (don't sell books, get rid of customers, dust, drink tea, read, nothing else), and then he sinks back into his chair. it is still in the same spot as he put it while waiting for aziraphale to return, still catches as much of the sunlight throughout the day as possible, still smells like earl grey, and vanilla, and a hint of cinnamon.
still smells like his angel.
crowley sits down, takes off his shades and leaves them in their usual spot, and then he allows his human form to fade away until a smaller version of the serpent of eden is curled up on the cushions.
muriel knows, of course they do, and as their time on earth forces them to mature like it does with any celestial being staying for an extended amount of time, they ache for crowley. they make sure he's warm and protected, and that is all they really can do.
he doesn't quite sleep, it's more of a hibernation or whatever imitation he can manage, and he waits. maybe it's stupid, maybe it's hopeless, maybe it is useless optimism, but he has to cling to the possibility of aziraphale coming back for him.
crowley dreams of eden. damp earth and lush plants, sweet fruit and humming insects, and an angel offering kindness to someone who fell from grace

Rockstar Foxy is the drummer who is programmed to help children who are handicapped and with disabilities, wherein he instills confidence in them through telling stories, acting, and singing shanties. He is meant to give confidence to children, by helping them with whatever they're struggling with and telling them they're doing a great job. He is also programmed to help children with prosthetics to get used to them. He is also inspired by David Bowie, hope we dont get sued.
I'm a firm believer that Aziracrow will make up, HOWEVER I think Aziraphale will NEVER hear the end of it.
*500 years later: Aziraphale doing something accidentally* "Oops, sorry"
*Crowley, mockingly* "I fOrGiVe yOu"
*Sigh* "Crowley, I said I was sorry! Will you let it go, please?"
*Crowley, dramatically falling back on his chair, still doing the mocking voice* "cOmE wItH mE tO hEaVeN"
