i hate trans tape. i love trans tape! everytime i put it on i want to rip it off after a day. as soon as i take it off i immediately wish i hadn't. but it's so fucking itchy. and it never dries. and it never offers full compression. but it is quite literally the best binding method i have.

end my suffering.

For a moment I thought they were going to spend eternity together in the cosmic bookshop writing the whole universe back in existence in the blank books...

Fics that are more canon to me than the finale

(in no particular order, no spoilers)

I want to preface this by saying that despite everything and even though I didn't like the finale ending personally, I did love everything else about it and I love good omens 3 in general. All these are fics that purely read as a season 3 that I absolutely adore and take comfort in. They're all complete and horrendously long I'd say, and of course a guaranteed happy ending. Story and character focused recommendations.

Factory Settings by Anonymous (103k) - absolutely the fucking holy grail. i mean who hasn't read this masterpiece? amazing story, perfect characterisation of both aziraphale and crowley as well as an angelic version of crowley. it has banter, its well paced and my darling aziraphale. if you haven't read this, GO GO GO! [T rated]

The Ineffability of Gray by kitfornow (100k) - this one doesn't lose Aziraphale's determination and sense of responsibility he feels to do the right thing. Slow burn, angsty but the ending is gorgeous. [Not rated but no smut]

Perennial Care and Keeping by cyankelpie (11k) - I see this one more as an epilogue to season 3 exploring how their relationship is affected by years or pushing eachother away now that they finally have forever. [G rated]

Three Is Not Enough by haleinedelail (93k) - this one is my absolute FAVOURITE. author basically wrote a season 3 complete with splitting the story into 'episodes' and including flashbacks. the characterisation is perfect and dare I say, the story is a lot more compelling than the actual finale (mostly because its 93k and not rushed 90min lmao). it has it all, hurt crowley, amnesiac aziraphale, cute muriel and the climax is very satisfying. [T rated]

Flaws by indigo (indigo_angels) (218k) - angst lovers this is for you. depressed and hurt crowley, aziraphale trying his best (i do think crowley is extremely hurt and it blames aziraphale a bit too much it makes sense purely on the context of the fic and I love angst shutup). BUT it has amazing writing and I've read this about 6 times already. despite the angst the ending is so sweet and sappy and well earned. [E rated]

Good Omens - Corner Office with a View (Broke My Wings so You Could Fly) by Noli_Timere031754 (84k) @nolitimere54 genuinely the most pathetic wet cat crowley you'll ever read. love the characterisation of both the husbands and their interactions are phenomenal. also great for BAMF aziraphale. [M rated]

Synchronized With You by ayellowbentley (legends_saga) (38k) - part one with a part 2 epilogue with amazing ace aziraphale and crowley, miscommunication and reconciliation. [T rated]

scherzo in f-sharp minor, for orchestra by astrhae (23k) - i know I've recommended some beasts but this is a shorter story which I think characterises aziraphale and crowley very well and resolves the conflict perfectly. slow burn but worth it. [M rated]

On the Side of the World by profdanglais (58k) - oh i absolutely love this one with aziracrow scheming and trying to save humanity together despite their differences plus I really liked the way they saved everything. [M rated]

I'll follow you down 'til the sound of my voice will haunt you by midnightdragons (66k) - angst lovers this is for you. complete with tortured crowley, bamf aziraphale and focus on the angst followed by softness and ofc we have our happy ending. [T rated]

We Can't Keep Meeting Like This by Ginger_Cat (65k) - this is porn with reluctant plot because surprisingly none of the fics here any of that BUT if you like pining while fucking, this is amazing. [E rated]

hurry back, please bring it back home to me by Percyjacksonfan3 (103k) - very angsty and somehow silly. cute jesus and love their mutual pining and slow burn in this one. [T rated]

Now that that's out of the way, just know I have hundreds more I could recommend but this list is already too long. If any of the authors would like to be tagged, do let me know!

about the farewell finger-kiss. i've seen some people argue that this was a better option than a normal kiss as it was more delicate and subtle, which means that it also was 'going beyond showing normal physical attraction'. and yes, as supernatural immortal beings they definitely are 'beyond' a lot of stuff. however. i can't help but think that s2 set up something that was just natural for us to expect. crowley kissed aziraphale out of desperation and now they deserved to be allowed to kiss out of love. honestly, if this 12 second long kiss from s2 had never been a thing, i wouldn't feel this disappointed by the kiss now. but i've seen the explanation for it from michael and david (and sorry, i don't have neither the screenshots nor any link to the interview). they said that after the s2 kiss, kissing now wouldn't have this much meaning. as in, the kiss has already happened, so all the next ones would just water it down. and i can't agree. as i said before, the first kiss was out of desperation, it happened quickly and wasn't really thought-through by crowley. but now, it would be a completely different thing, finally just loving each-other freely, for the first time.

i kind of try not to think about the fact that this situation wouldn't be a thing were they a straight couple. do you ever see people saying that some straight pairing shouldn't kiss cause they are beyond that? i don't know

That was officially the worst ending of a show I have ever witnessed. I hate it with a burning passion and wish Good Omens had never gotten renewed after S1.

If I do make anything for GO in the future, just know that it’s in an alternate universe where the two of them sat on their arses and rewrote reality into the blank bookshop books. I ain’t touching those two human lookalikes

The ONE fucking thing NO ONE wanted!!!!

It doesn't count. It doesn't fucking count.

That's not the South Down cottage we were promised. And they didn't even get to kiss again

fuck you neil gaiman bla bla bla

Aaaaaaand Aziraphale was an ass to Crowley the entire time. Assumed Crowley would take him back no apology needed, didn't empathize with Crowley's hurt at all, just demands upon demands and Crowley let him

thiswomanshouldbewriting

Three years, THREE YEARS we spent panicking about the Ineffable Divorce, coming up with increasingly angsty and depressed scenarios, and these two lovesick idiots were unable to stay separated for more than 10 seconds IN THE FUCKING TRAILER.

"Aziraphale has chosen Heaven over Crowley" "Crowley will be mad at Aziraphale"

Meanwhile Crowley is literally just waiting for his Angel to come back just so he can say "I told you so" and Aziraphale has literally been trying, the whole time, to build a world where they can be happy together without feeling guilty about what happens to humans. Both of them would drop everything at a moment's notice to be with the other if the other were in danger.

They are so pathetically in love it's EMBARRASSING.

Damsel in Distress

I'm sure this image is seared into the minds of the entire ineffable fandom:

Poor, poor Crowley. Abandoned by his partner and left to suffer alone, sleeping on the streets. So desolate he's forgotten who he is, or that he has magic AND a bookshop AND a Bentley and doesn't NEED to sleep on the streets. Except ...

We've all seen Aziraphale's helpless, "oh please sir won't you come find me, rescue me, saaaaaave me" damsel in distress act:

And now, I believe we've seen Crowley's.

Good Omens is full of mirrors...

Will they go out for lunch after Crowley has been sufficiently rescued by his supreme archangel? Probably 💕

Because if there's one thing these two have always loved, it's spending time together while Aziraphale eats.

Just ✨27✨ days before we'll find out!

With lots of thanks to the @ineffable-detective-agency for being so much fun to chat with about the trailer! And especially @lookingatacupoftea for the encouragement to post this 🤩
