Masterpost - Popular Tropes, Tags, and Questions!

We are currently caught up on asks, so it should only take a couple of weeks for them to be answered and posted. Send us any recommendations, requests or lost fics HERE!

When you send us an ask please be polite! We’re not a machine that spits out fics. We are people, and a simple ‘Hi’ or ‘Please’ makes all the difference to us. We have addressed this a couple of times before (x, x) but in future we may choose to simply delete asks we deem rude.

We are also not guys! Please try to refrain from using gendered terms as it does make some of the mods uncomfortable. If you want to know why or find alternative please check this link.

We are using #good omens s2 and #good omens s3 speculation to tag for series two/post-series two requests.

Don’t know where to start? Try the fandom and mod favourite tags!...

Remember to use #adult omens to find or filter out most of the explicit fic recommendations!

A spreadsheet with categorised and alphabetical tags can be found here! This is currently a work in progress by @a-certain-serpent which we very much appreciate!

If you want to read some of the lovely things our followers have said and the affectionate gifs we respond with, you can check out the #nice and kind words tag

You can also check out our lost fic posts, and perhaps help someone find a fic they’ve been looking for!

Not sure what the letters (G, T, M, E, NR) by each rec mean? Read about them on AO3 here. Any questions or comments we have about ao3 can be found on the #ao3 tag.

Want to know who your mods are? Check out our members page here!

Please note! We cannot accept requests to tag posts for specific things or in a certain way. Unfortunately we don’t necessarily read all the fics we list or that are recommended. We could also not guarantee that posts would be consistently tagged, with various mods compiling them. When fics are particularly dark we try to add a note to take care, but we strongly advise every reader to always check the tags and warnings on AO3. Look after yourself! :)

Thank you and happy reading!

#masterpost #tropes #tags #rating #tagging #faq #good omens #good omens fic

love your blog! i’ve found so many good fics over the years. i was wondering if there were any text fics/ fics where texting plays a role? im not too picky otherwise!

We have #texting and #social media tags, so do check those out for lots of fics along these lines. Here are more to add...

in which aziraphale finally gets a cellphone by edensdelights (T)

A look into Crowley and Aziraphale's daily lives, as told through text messages.

Helluva Morning After by scullyphile, SpectrallyDistracted (M)

It’s the end of the school year, and the teachers head to the pub, science teacher Anthony Crowley and literature teacher Aziraphale East among them. The next day, a flurry of text messages ensues.

Sincerely, how dare you? by Ezomind, Heretic1103, isiaiowin (T)

Inferno Media Group has just acquired the Celestia editing house. Sparks fly between Aziraphale Fell and Anthony Crowley - before they have even met face-to-face. Will the mandatory teambuilding retreat help them overcome their professional differences? This story is told entirely in corporate emails, diary entries, passive-aggressive kitchen notes, and text messages.

An Ocean Between Us by accidentaldemon (E)

Aziraphale and Crowley have been together for over one and a half years. And now they're going long distance. When you love your partner, that should be easy, right?

Group Chat: Flat 3B 🐍📚 by whatkeepsusalive (T)

Aziraphale likes his tea hot, his routines quiet, and his flatmate reasonably sensible. Unfortunately, he lives with Crowley,a sunglasses-wearing menace who sings Queen in the shower, sets pastry on fire for fun, and keeps stealing his clothes. They’re definitely not flirting. Definitely not falling in love. Just… mutually annoying. With benefits. Emotional ones. Probably. Aziraphale: Also, you borrowed my scarf. Again. Crowley: Needed it. It was cold. Aziraphale: You own seventeen scarves. Crowley: Yeah, but yours smells like you. 😏 Aziraphale: That’s very forward for a Thursday afternoon. Crowley: You’re blushing, aren’t you?

New Messages by TawnyOwl95 (E)

Aziraphale writes fanfiction for the show Nice and Accurate Prophecies. Crowley draws fanart. It's going to be the collab of their lives.

Hello! I was wondering if you could help me find a fic I LOVED but can't remember the name of and never bookmarked. It was on AO3 but I can't find it and I'm hoping someone knows it. It was a human AU where Crowley was trans but was still deeply connected to his faith. It had a beautiful line about how God didn't make a mistake with him because our souls are what God creates. It also had a funny scene where Crowley was drunk and stumbled over to the bookshop in his dressing gown. Any help would be appreciated I'd love to re read it!

Hi! I believe you're looking for...

secondhand smoke by vanillarchive (T)

you're second hand smoke, second hand smoke i breathe you in, but, honey, i don't know what you're doing to me mon chéri the year is 1990, and anthony crowley is looking for a church in london that might be tolerable. the one he winds up attending isn't exactly such, but he decides to stick around for one reason. said reason happens to own a bookshop that crowley begins to frequent, much to the surprise and delight of anathema device and newton pulsifer, who seem quite convinced that crowley could use something else to focus on besides gardening, their campaigns, and visits to tadfield.

Lost FIc #359

1. hello! I read a fic a while ago and really liked it but have failed to find it again since. its a shorter one shot where crowley takes a long nap and wakes up to find aziraphale has been reading in his bed while he slept. aziraphale explains that at first he was coming over to check on him, then started bringing books and making himself comfortable. the part i really liked was that while his essence was gone, crowleys corporation kept trying to reach out and hold aziraphale because of his residual feelings or something. do you maybe know which fic this was? Thanks! - anon

2. Hi, ty for the help y'all give us. <3 I'm hoping you can help me find a fic I've lost! It's set mainly in the bookshop, and the main thing I remember about it is hipstery customers coming in to look at the books and post the shop on Instagram. They start paying attention to Crowley and have a hashtag for him that's something like "hardcover trade" as a play on "rough trade" 💀💀💀 and they all think Aziraphale is paying him for his attention lol. Crowley eventually figures out what's going on with that and he and Aziraphale have sex about it. It's been living in my head forever and won't come up in my searches, I hope someone can help me lol - @trashcat-waifu

3. Hi there! I'm looking for a lost fic published in 2019. In the story, Aziraphale discovers he is pregnant around the same time he and Crowley are looking for Adam. He hides it from Crowley, who is understandably upset when he does tell him on the bus ride home from the air field. - anon

4. Hi!! I love the work that you do <3 I’m looking for a lost fic! It was a comic dark fic about the them. Kinda had a lord of the flies vibe? Does anyone remember it? - anon

If you know any of these fics please include the number in your reply! Thank you :)

#good omens #good omens fanfiction #ineffable husbands #lost fic #mod d

Hello mods! As always, thank you so much for everything you do! Thank you for featuring my work in the past as well, it‘s so exciting for me to see every time <3

I want to give a very special recommendation: upon me writing this, it‘s been one day since I first watched The Final along with my sibling. They were the one to get me into Good Omens in the first place back in 2023. It was something we bonded over and has brought us a lot of shared joy over the years. Watching its ending together has therefore been very bittersweet and emotional, in more ways than one. The night after we watched it, my sibling wrote this little fix-it one shot: https://archiveofourown.org/works/84919461

I think it‘s very sweet and makes a lot of sense as an alternative ending. Plus, it‘s my sibling‘s birthday at the end of this month (May). Getting featured on this blog would be a wonderful birthday surprise and I would love it if you could publish my recommendation by then, but no pressure. I know that you get a lot of messages and that this is crazy short notice.

Thank you in any case for hearing me out. I hope you have a wonderful day!

Hello. Because apparently I am a softie, I'm bumping this up to post before the end of May. I'm nearing the slew of series 3 asks in the inbox, but please me patient with meeeeee...

Why make endless galaxies and don’t let us see them? by Thisangstisinyourwalls (NR)

The ending of Good omens made me feel empty. I hate the “it all never happened” trope and the human AU in the end did little to uplift me. I liked a lot of it and while a lot was certainly cut out I think it could have been fulfilling if not for this trope. So I tried to make it a little better… Not really a fix it, more than a HISHE in my eyes. I just don’t feel whole with that ending…

#good omens #ineffable husbands #crossover #mod d

Are there any incredibly long fics? I need something to read for a while, I'm not particularly picky but I would prefer anything shipping aziraphale with Crowley

Nonny, if you aren't picky you can simply sort on ao3 by word count. Here you go: completed English language Aziraphale/Crowley fics longest first on ao3. We also have a plentiful #long fic tag.

Here are some more recent long fics that won't already be on our tag...

writing on the pages of eden by Blue_Rose_1066, Ineffable-Shadow (E)

Crowley religiously listens to Guardian_of_Eden's sensual podfics while teasing the bookseller Aziraphale every day. What he doesn't know is that Aziraphale is Guardian_of_Eden... and that he's addicted to Snake_of_Eden's fanfics - Crowley's own pseudonym. Between passionate comments, hours of discussion, and mutual help, they become inseparable online. When Aziraphale illustrates Snake's fanfics and they get invited to the London Comic Con together, the long-awaited meeting approaches... and with it, the explosive revelation of their secret identities.

Do You Believe In Love Afterlife? by Letha (E)

Aziraphale comes into some money and decides to buy himself a bookshop to run. Unfortunately, it’s not long before he realises it’s haunted. Will the occult be the answer to his lonely heart’s need? (Think Just Like Heaven meets The Exorcist — ghost romcom with some extra spookies, you get the gist!)

No Nightingales at Whickber University by KC_Bonneville (T)

Crowley is a history professor at Whickber University, where the curious new literature professor, Dr. Aziraphale Fell, begins to instruct in the classroom across from him. However, when the two of them strike a wager to see whose teaching style is most effective, things become a bit more interesting between the two. Luckily, the mischievous students that share both classes, Adam, Brian, Pepper and Wensleydale, are scheming ways to bring the two together. Will the reclusive Dr. Crowley and optimistic Dr. Fell keep to themselves? Or with the help of their quirky coworkers and nosy students, will the two ineffable idiots find a common ground to allow something new to grow and flourish? Or, a story in which KC saw a tumblr post about a 'professor brickwall' and a 'professor overshare', and succumbed to the Good Omens brain worms.

Into the Wild by GlitteringPeanut42 (E)

London based Professor Aziraphale Fell is about to embark on a twelve week field expedition to take the final step in his current research project. This time, he will be joined by Anthony Crowley, a sought after wildlife cinematographer, so they can turn his research into what will hopefully be an award winning documentary.

Hello! I'm searching for a gomens fic AU where demons are used as living beer barrels, but for the life of me I can't recall the right tags or title 😔

I don't know how to feel about the fact I knew exactly which fic you're looking for. Mind the tags!!!!...

#good omens #ineffable husbands #major archive warning #non com #mind the tags #adult omens #mod d

Hi! Just discovered this and it's so sweet of all of you to run this blog! I'm a sucker for truth serum/spell fics where one or both (of A/C) have to resist the urge to give in and just spill all of their feelings. I've read the lovely cyankelpie's Thou Shall Not Lie & others with a similar vibe, but I'm trying to find more niche ones. Wondering if you know of any? Thanks!

Hello. Here are some fics to add to our #truth serum and #truth spell tags...

Synchronized by EdosianOrchids901 (T)

“Aziraphale. What did you do?” Aziraphale’s expression wrenched with something. Pain, maybe. And then he blurted, “I read a spell from the book aloud because I was curious, and I think it was a real truth spell, and now I can’t lie.”

Nothing but the truth by UnproblematicMe (T)

It is around 8 pm. Anathema is at Crowley’s door, supporting a dopey-grinning Aziraphale.

True Love by AppleSeeds (T)

His love for Aziraphale, the apothecary's son, is Prince Crowley's most closely-guarded secret, but keeping his mouth shut under the influence of a truth serum might prove to be more than he can manage.

And Nothing But the Truth by 29Pieces (G)

Gabriel wants answers about how Aziraphale survived the hellfire. He's determined to get the truth, by any means necessary, and a truth serum seems just the thing. He's about to get way, way more than he bargained for... A story as told by the Bookshop and the Bentley.

A Midsummer Afternoon's Curse by cyankelpie (G)

(Aziraphale is the victim of a love spell, and needs Crowley’s help to break it. Which is a problem, because it’s very difficult for Crowley to focus while Aziraphale lavishes him with affection.) The rest of the sentence got knocked out of him by a large, off-white blur that flew out of the door and tackled him. “Crowley,” said a familiar voice, though the breathy fondness and affection in said voice was anything but familiar. “I knew you’d come.” Oh. It was Crowley. Crowley was the target of Aziraphale’s magical infatuation. Aziraphale wanted Crowley’s help ridding him of this newfound affection for Crowley. And Crowley, who somehow needed to be the level-headed one in this situation, was utterly fucked.

Sigh No More by KitschyKit (E)

“Aziraphale?” He prompted as he fiddled with the seal of the bottle, tugging at the stubborn cork. His sharp fangs came down to worry at his bottom lip. “Your idea?” “I’ll get to it in a minute.” Aziraphale looked practically disheveled, and beautiful, and despite everything that happened, he looked perfectly, utterly, calm. “I was hoping to talk about us.” The cork gave, and Crowley hit himself in the face.

Crowley’s venom is a truth serum, one he has used on himself for centuries, dosing himself in private to admit to his own carefully buried feelings— but accidents happen, and Crowley bites himself the night after the Apocalypse. There are a thousand and one ways to say I love you, and consent is a part of every single one.

Of Truths And Other Absurd Notions by WaitingToBeBroken (M)

Crowley is hit with a curse that makes it very deadly not to Tell the Truth. Which, considering the fact he is a demon and has been hiding a particular secret from a particular angel for 6 thousand years, is not ideal. The way Aziraphale is fretting over him and touching him is really not helping.

The Whole Truth by Aethelflaed (G)

London, 1999 An ancient, mysterious tome bearing a powerful curse arrives in AZ Fell's - and Aziraphale is tasked with finding out why the demons want it so much. But his strange behavior quickly suggests that the curse is affecting him, too. And what is the secret that Crowley keeps for twenty years?

Hi, do you know of fanfics where one of them didn’t realize the other spoke/understood the language they were speaking and they were talking about them? Not sure what to look for there. Help would be lovely! Thank you!

Hey, yeah, there aren't really tags for this or an easy way to search. I know of one fic, but maybe our followers can share more?...

Mon Horrible Chéri by ghostrat (E)

Apparently, Crowley could ruin his good mood. Crowley was just about the only thing that could ruin it. “Right. So. You and I, is it?” Aziraphale confirmed, just to be clear. “That’s right.” “And how long is this trip, exactly?” “One full week,” Crowley enunciated too clearly, stretching his lips around the words and sharply clacking his k. “Seven whole days.” “Great,” Aziraphale breathed. They both smiled, all teeth and no joy. (Human AU / Enemies to Lovers) • English Teacher Aziraphale gets roped into the sixth form Paris field trip, not realising his worst enemy Science Teacher Crowley is the accompanying chaperone. Are seven days of forced proximity really enough to undo a truly vitriolic relationship? Or, let's be real: How quickly does it take them to fall head over heels for each other?

Lost Fic #358

1. Hello there. Much thanks for all that you do. Apologies if this fic was asked for already. I am looking for a fic where Crowley presents Aziraphale with a book filled with aus of themselves, done up like a menu. Aziraphale picks one out and they miracle themselves into the au. The fic jokingly makes all aus canon, in a sense. I remember reading the line "Every version of me loves every version of you". Not sure if it was a tag or a comment from the author. It was on the shorter side, I believe. Thank you again for all your time and hard work. - @neurosquared

2. Hello, I'm looking for a fanfiction that I think I saw on your library but can't manage to find. The summary mentioned that Aziraphale believed he was human but was actually an angel. He believed that since 6,000 years (maybe). I think Crowley was a demon and keep around Aziraphale. Do you happen to know what this fic is called? P.S. English isn't my first language, so I apologise for any mistakes. - anon

3. Looking for a fic I read around 2019-2021. It's a multi-chapter human au where Crowley and Azi are married professors. One of them (could go either way, I can't remember) gets pregnant. This becomes an issue because no one knows they are married, but it turns out they are really obvious and everyone actually knows. Could have been an abo universe, or trans au, or just completely unexplained lowkey pregnancy fic. There was a sequel about their family. - anon

4. Hello amazing library! I've lost a fic where Aziraphale tried sleeping and he dreams of inappropriate situations between him and Crowley (twas mostly E rated, I think). It got to a point where physical evidence of the dream had started appearing on Aziraphale's body (hickeys bites and all that), and Aziraphale refused to tell Crowley who he dreams of. Crowley realizes that the dreams occur because Aziraphale's room has such a high concentration of demonic energy—that of course turned out to be his. So I was wondering if you know the title of this fic? Thanks a bunch, love! xoxo - anon

If you know any of these fics please include the number in your reply! Thank you :)

Hello lovely mods! Thank you once again for all tha you're doing, it's very appreciated!

I would like to give another self-rec of a short story I've just completed. It's about Crowley's fall. It has some angsty moments and some sweet post-S3 fluff too!

It's called: Starry, Starry Night by PrincessOfHouseNightstar

Thank you and have a wonderful day! 🩵

Thanks for sharing your fic with us!...

Starry, Starry Night by PrincessOfHouseNightstar (T)

“Trust that the Almighty knows what she’s doing. She has the Great Plan and we are to carry that out. What happens after is not for us to speculate on,” Aziraphale advised. Kokabiel gave Aziraphale a side glance. “Are you always like this?” “Like what exactly?” “So… optimistic, even in bleak circumstances.” Aziraphale’s brows furrowed and he fiddled with the ring on his little finger. “Bleak? This is a time of beauty and creation. I see very little to be negative about.”

OR: Kokabiel is a starmaker and he's been tasked by the Almighty to create the universe from scratch, but someone far more beautiful than the stars catches his eye. Inspiration strikes, though his questions plague him. What will he do: act on them or take Aziraphale's advice and keep quiet? An angsty short story about Crowley's fall.

Hello! I recently read 'we shall have the world forever for our own' by quitequaintrelle and would love recommendations for other similar fics where A/C are getting up to hijinks (some kind of plot) and are already in established relationship. My sincerest thanks in advance!

Hi! Here are some fics to add to our #established relationship tag...

Love on the Rocks by mageofthepeople (E)

Aziraphale and Crowley are guests at Anathema and Newt's destination wedding. Having problems of their own, they spend the week up to the wedding trying to save their relationship while keeping up with wedding events and social engagements as a couple.

Compassion and Perspective, Divine Enablers of an Ineffable Plan by CynSyn (M)

God has a sense of humor. She hasn’t changed them, but they changed themselves without ever knowing it. They have grown beyond their previous descriptions. She has repurposed them to make them aware of their abilities. God needs someone to clean up a series of messes after the Really Big Avocado That Wasn't, and who better than the pair that stopped it to begin with? With great power comes great... well, something. Or Aziraphale and Crowley aren't as retired as they thought.

its duty is to harm me, my duty is to know by natalunasans (T)

the title is from a cohen song about death, & also applies to life... whether in london or in tadfield; together, alone, or in (usually good) company; the ineffable partners talk out their fears, try to figure out what they are and what to do with themselves, now that they're not working for heaven and hell anymore. domestic softness > action, but there is some plot and angst (off and on)

This is Not my Beautiful House by cyankelpie (T)

Crawly wakes up in a place he doesn't recognize. The last thing he remembers is being ordered to "make some trouble" up on Earth. Someone has dressed him in ridiculously tight clothes and cut off all his hair, and now there's an angel calling him by a different name and being nicer to him than anyone ever has. Clearly, there's been some catastrophic misunderstanding.

A Little Place in the Country by die_traumerei (G)

Wanting a change, Crowley and Aziraphale decide to buy a place in the country and fix it up. It goes exactly the way you'd think, and exactly opposite of the way they thought. (Featuring a female-presenting Aziraphale and a Crowley who experiments a lot with gender. Also, a lot of discussion on drywall.)

And the one you mentioned...

we shall have the world forever for our own by quitequaintrelle (M)

Your new beginning starts here! Lying wholly within the South Downs National Park, the village of Wood’s Bottom is your destination for an idyllic retirement. This quaint hamlet is a short five miles away from the seaside resort of Brighton, with its vibrant array of shopping, culture, and leisure attractions. Boasting stunning landscape views, entirely average weather conditions, welcoming neighbours, and intimate rural charm, Wood’s Bottom is your opportunity to live the exceptionally normal and relaxing lifestyle you’ve always dreamed of. Aziraphale and Crowley have finally found their forever home after successfully ensuring there is still a “forever” to share. Surely they will integrate perfectly well amongst their new neighbours. Surely.

Hellooo, first of all thank you, I've found so many good fics in this blog it's insane ❤️❤️

Second of all, do you have recommendations of fics where Aziraphale and Crowley are exes who are still in love? I only found Ink Blots and Forget Me Nots, which is INSANELY good and recommended, but the rest are fics in which they were together when they were young and then spent 10 years or so without seeing each other, and that's amazing but I kinda want the yearning that comes with exes who are still in love and have to coexist

Hiiii. Here are some fics where they are in each other's lives post-break up to add to our #getting back together tag...

Shut Up Kiss Me Hold Me Tight by wyrmy (M)

Aziraphale and Crowley have had an Arrangement in place ever since their divorce 15 years ago. They're absolutely, strictly friends (with rather copious benefits) and they'll never, ever be anything else ever again. Or will they? This is fanfic. Of course they will.

Comfort Food by Zakani_Donovan (T)

Anthony J. Crowley hated what he was doing, but it was almost like he couldn't control his body as he walked into Aziraphale's restaurant. Once, it had been like coming home, stepping in here. Now, after their breakup, he almost felt like a demon walking on consecrated ground.

Worth the Money by whatkeepsusalive (T)

Aziraphale and Crowley broke up. Unfortunately, they also booked a luxury ski resort New Year’s trip months ago, complete with a couples-only chalet, spa treatments, and aggressively romantic experiences that cannot be cancelled. What was meant to be a celebration becomes a reckoning and maybe, if they’re brave enough, a second chance.

Did the angel just insinuate-? Crowley grinned at him. Might as well take the invitation. “Well, I’d love to hear it one day over a glass of wine, then,” the gamble worked because Aziraphale beamed and wiggled. His lips parted and his eyes focused on Crowley’s sunglasses. “That would be delightful, Crowley,” his name rolled off Aziraphale’s tongue like it was a delicious chocolate raspberry truffle. In short, Crowley moves in next door to Aziraphale and sparks fly. And then so much miscommunication begins to happen and assumptions are made and things get very rocky indeed. (Because sometimes these two share a brain cell.)

Sinking Ships by AppleSeeds (E)

The world is practically on fire and it feels like nobody's doing anything about it, but Crowley's outlook brightens considerably when a new member arrives at his local climate action committee. Crowley is immediately smitten, and is thrilled when he and Aziraphale become fast friends, although he can't help but hope they might one day become something more. When all of his wishes come true, Crowley starts to feel like life couldn't possibly get any better. He can picture exactly what his future is going to look like, until something happens that feels like a powerful bolt of lightning has struck and split Crowley's life right down the middle, with everything before that moment on one side, and everything that is to come - scorched, lifeless and devastated - on the other. With the help of a counsellor, Crowley begins the difficult journey of picking up the pieces and working through what's happened. When Aziraphale unexpectedly comes back into his life, Crowley finally has the chance to get some answers, revealing that the truth is very different from what he was led to believe. Now he just needs to figure out whether that changes anything.

And the one your mentioned...

Ink Blots and Forget-Me-Nots by gutsandglitter (T)

Ninth Circle Ink was hardly more than a stone’s throw from the flower shop; Aziraphale knew from past experience that it took less than thirty seconds to go from door to door (forty-five if you had to wait for a car to pass). It had been a perfect arrangement in the beginning, when they were just starting out. Owning a flower shop across the street from your boyfriend's tattoo parlor is fun and adorable. Owning a flower shop across the street from your ex-boyfriend's tattoo parlor? Not so much.

Hello! Do you know any fics that are royalty au, but specifically where aziraphale is a knight and crowley is a prince? Thank you!!!

Here at the prince Crowley and knight Aziraphale fics I could find...

Whisper, Sugar, Dragon by MeinirRhos (G)

Prince Crowley was stolen by a dragon on his eighteenth birthday. Sir Aziraphale quests to steal him back. 30 minute sprint oneshot! Part 1 of Knight/Prince/Dragon AU series

Prince's Preference by ladydragona (T)

Prince Crowley has a new suitor but he'd much rather prefer someone else.

Love Can't Help Itself by Zakani_Donovan (T)

Crowley is a prince who begins a secret affair with Aziraphale, the newest knight in the castle. It quickly develops into something more.

Wounds of War by Arielavader (E)

Averus is fighting a war against their neighboring Kingdom, Allium. Prince Crowley's world is turned upside down when his father King Lucian, and Averus' general, Aziraphale, are both gravely injured in the fighting. His father's dying wish is for peace, but before they can end the war, Aziraphale must first survive his own injuries. Of course, survival doesn't mean things will be easy. When Aziraphale is the only one Crowley knows he can trust, but his injuries prevent him from going back to lead the Army, what's a young King to do to keep his most loyal subject as an advisor when all the positions are already filled? Well, the King is allowed to bring his concubine to meetings as long as they sit at his feet and say nothing. Maybe Crowley and Aziraphale can come to some sort of arrangement?

Hello!

In light of possible season 3 angst, I was wondering if you could rec some fics where Aziraphale thinks or is made to believe that Crowley is dead? Alternatively, Crowley actually going through life-threatening circumstances and Aziraphale going feral to save him is also good.

Thank you!

Hi! Do check our #assumed character death and #temporary character death tags for fics like this. Here are a couple more to add. Mind the tags!...

…you don't know what he means to me by Nobodysproblem (T)

"Crowley? I got your message." His voice echoed in the silent, empty building. He had to be here. He wouldn't leave the Book, now that he'd found it. Well. Suppose he could've left with the Book, but- Steps, getting closer. Aziraphale sighed, relieved, and hastened to meet Crowley in the middle. Only when the person turned the corner, it wasn't Crowley. Or We're all set on Aziraphale thinking Crowley is dead at some point in season 3, right? Right?

Forget the Devil (when God rolls over) by Unuora (T)

Aziraphale's been waiting for their happy ending. After the failed apocalypse he's been betrayed and terrified, but he's done waiting on God and Satan's gone. This was Aziraphale's perfect chance, and he was going to take it. Pity that Crowley had to go missing. (In a game of chess there's a lot more to worry about than just the king.)

Anyway, Don't Be A Stranger by Juno_Sunlit (T)

It's been 10 years since Crowley died, and Aziraphale has mourned for every single minute. It's also been 10 years since Aziraphale died, and Crowley, up in the stars, has done the same. To God's chagrin, neither is aware of the other's continued existence. Sick and tired of grief big enough to end a universe, She sends them both on a trip through their old haunts, hoping they'll meet. All is as well and good as possible until something happens to Aziraphale, and a grieving Crowley must unknowingly come to his rescue. Includes musings on existence, gentle, warm flashbacks, demonic heists of a homosexual nature, God in slippers, asshole Gabriel, tearful reunions, the inherent tenderness of loving someone ever so much, and, through all the sorrow, a very happy ending.

Another Time, Another Place by indigo (E)

What if? Two words - so powerful. A slight divergence from canon sees a very different life for Aziraphale five years after the world didn’t end. Ostracised from Heaven, he now lives in a world with bookshops and Afternoon Tea, but without Crowley; a world in which he believes Crowley gave his life to save him. However, it’s not quite that simple, and maybe they can somehow get a happy ending after all??? (They can, and they do. But let’s not tell Aziraphale that just yet. It’ll spoil the fun!)

Hello! Thank you for all the work you do!

I did have a look through the tags so hopefully I’m not missing anything super obvious to what I’m looking for.

I’m hoping to find some fics of Crowley interacting with/protecting kids through the ages. Cause he’s a huge softy even if he pretends he isn’t. Aziraphale observing this and having feelings would be awesome but not necessary. I’ve been seeing lots of fanart recently that makes me want to read some similar fics! I can’t stop thinking about Anthony “you can’t kill kids!?” Crowley

Thanks again! Hope you’re all having a lovely day!

Hi! You might be interested in our #crowley is good with kids tag. Here are a few more to add...

Interwoven by MadisonAvenue (T)

Aziraphale watches Crowley entertain children by letting them braid his hair, but not everything is as it seems when Aziraphale learns why Crowley specifically cares for one of the children.

Outside of Eden by atimefeeler (T)

Six Thousand Years of Crowley Being Soft and Taking Care of Kids. (And Six Thousand Years of Aziraphale Taking in and Protecting Outcasts.) Scene 1: Outside the Garden. The First Children in Existence. Children, Crawley discovers, are superior to adults.

Pull Up the Ladder When the Flood Comes by midnightdragons (T)

Aziraphale’s face dawned with a sudden understanding. He knelt to the ground beside Crawley, slowly and purposefully, never breaking his gaze until his eyes flicked to Crawley’s wing. A silent question. Crawley did not answer for a long moment. He couldn’t breathe, his throat constricting in on itself. Did he trust this angel? Could he trust this angel? Did he really have enough faith in Aziraphale, who he had spent little to no time with since the Garden, to not harm these children? (Or: Crawley saves children during the Flood in Mesopotamia, and finds himself in an even more jeopardizing situation as he seeks out shelter. Aziraphale struggles with his own internal conflict, but attempts to help all the same.)

The Book of Bithiah by LucyCrewe11 (M)

In pre-flooded Mesopotamia, Crawly rescues a drowning child and unwittingly sets off a chain of unexpected events, resulting in him working in Hastur's household. As the world grows more violent and evil each day, filled with demons and Nephilim, the infamous flood draws ever-nearer...only nobody except Noah's family and one very fussy angel are taking any note...
