Here mostly as a writer, otherwise for the shitposting. Please feel welcome to message me directly to say hi :)
Update: 10/25/2025
I do not condone or promote any of the ads shown by Tumblr on my blog. This is enshittification and they can fuck right off. If you see an ad on my blog it has nothing to do with me and everything to do with our Corporate Overlords. I get paid nothing for any of this work; they are trying to make money off of us by making it appear that we support their shit.
I am still writing Good Omens stories because I have some WIPs I feel obligated to finish, but my interest in the canon material left ages ago due to ng and season 2.
alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.
we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)
please rb for larger sample size!
Question 1/3
What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?
It was not hard to find; an angel of his calibre—having been once a Cherubim and had been demoted to technically a Principality—Aziraphale of course knew where the Pink Pony Club was. Aziraphale had a particular interest in what the humans might describe as queer joy, and knew of all its major local shrines: the Abbey in West Hollywood, Fe-Be’s in San Francisco, the Stonewall Inn in New York. Of course, he also knew of its major local shrines to martyrs as well: Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, Club Q in Colorado Springs, and a lonely empty stretch of fence in Laramie, Wyoming.
Aziraphale found parking on a side street at a meter that miraculously broke when he executed a perfect parallel park. It was a little different to park like this as the Americans, like much of the rest of the world, drove on the wrong side of the road, but Aziraphale could manage.
Aziraphale walked into the Pink Pony Club, where he was welcomed warmly. They thought him an elder queer and well, why not? Certainly that was true, though the elder aspect of Aziraphale stretched back to before the beginning of the Earth.
Humans welcomed him immediately, and he found himself surrounded. They patted his hair, touched his hands, his elbows, his shoulders. One asked for a hug and once he started hugging, there was no end to it; the humans were queuing up to hug him, sometimes twice.
In another place, Aziraphale might have said no. At a UN gala with a Prince of Hell, for example, or if he were in the supermarket or the Tube. But that was different, those were ordinary places where people went about their own ordinary business.
This was however an extraordinary place where the people truly needed him. They needed Aziraphale even though he had walked away from Heaven, they needed him even though he was an angel really only in name, and even then perhaps not much of one. They needed him in a way that they could not articulate.
Other people did not need him as much as these people.
The humans came to Aziraphale as they were: young and old, able to stand and unable to walk, dyed hair, pierced ears, long hair, short hair, no hair, stylishly over-dressed or scandalously under-dressed or nervous-dressed in their first dress ever.
Plain and awkward, tall and handsome, stimming and stimming, deaf and signing, lips lined cautiously in their first touch of lipstick, leather trousers, white cane, denim, chaps, walking frames, wheelchairs, handkerchiefs, bondage gear, eye liner and shadow, drag queen after drag queen after drag king after drag king…
More than one came away from the embrace blinking at tears in their eyes, sniffling.
For unto this day an angel appeared in the Pink Pony Club, and he came bringing a tidal wave of joy, bringing love and blessings to the meek, the poor and poor in spirit, bringing love and blessings for they that mourn their lost family members of choice or otherwise, for the ones who hunger and thirst after righteousness, for the ones who were merciful despite their rage and for the peacemakers who agitated for true peace and justice, for the pure of everything they thought society considered them impure of, and above all, the angel came bringing comfort for those persecuted for who they are, the ones who society reviled and spoke evil against falsely.
For a few hours, the angel brought with him the kingdom of heaven, as best he could. Not the cold indifferent Heaven the angel knew, but the better and more beautiful one that the humans had came up with, the one filled with true justice, with love and compassion, where all who came to him were brought peace and joy, just for a little while.
Not exactly fishes and loaves, but tacos flowed freely as he moved through the crowd, and there there was not a soul that did not have a fish or a roasted vegetable taco or three to nourish them in body and spirit.
Wine and water and ginger ale flowed freely, and all hearts were gladdened.
Once Aziraphale was able to gently extract himself from the hug queue—accomplished by hugging all the humans that happened to be there, even the curmudgeonly ones who were drawn to him because of their needs—he took a minute to sit down at a table to catch his breath. A glass of wine appeared as he did, as did a plate of fish tacos and some excellent salsa that was never served normally but was the family recipe of one of the dishwashers who made it so fast that it was a miracle it was served out onto the table, and was so beautifully and deliciously made that it was the defining starting point of their long and illustrious culinary career.
As Aziraphale sat down to eat, he looked at the time on his phone which had automatically adjusted to local time (much like his old pocket watch, though that did it by miracle and not by signal), he realized it was locally about dinner time—an early dinnertime, but dinnertime nonetheless.
The fish tacos were covered in an absolute mountain of fresh coriander, and it made him smile a little to himself. The tacos were delicious with the salsa, and he thought Crowley would have quite enjoyed these. They would have to come here again sometime together.
The ones with most need ended up dining with him. The original table Aziraphale sat at was small, no bigger than a square fit for no more than two people, but then grew and grew as more tables were puzzle-pieced together to join it, until it was a great table that sat all, for the need was great and the humans were hungry and thirsty.
No one walked away without the blessings of self-forgiveness and healing, no one walked away without a little something.
It was baked into the food, it was poured into the drinks, and the jokes and the little stories that the angel told that soothed aching hearts. Aziraphale had gotten better at this since ancient times, and knew that for humans was impossible to be perfect. Even he had tried for a long time and it was not quite possible, and that perfection had turned into a kind of self-abuse, possibly the worst kind, where he had tried over and over to live up to Heaven’s directives.
But when he gave up on that perfection, after he had walked away from Heaven, some of that struggle seemed to ease up in his heart. So failing at perfection, Aziraphale just did his best to be kind, even though some days the humans would leave him in such a wrath that Crowley had to immediately drop what he was doing and go get ice cream.
After dinner, of course, there was dancing. After all, one couldn’t properly do up the Pink Pony Club without dancing.
As Aziraphale danced, moving his body with joy to the beat of the music, the humans came flooding around him once again. New humans, previous humans…all were drawn to Aziraphale as if a flame amid moths, provided that moths attended raves which they often did, though illicitly and uninvited.
To Aziraphale, this was not extraordinary. To himself, he was no more than the small light of a snowglobe, perhaps. A citizen upon a molehill.
But to the humans who danced in his divine and loving presence, it was life-changing.
Under the flashing lights and to the beat of the loud music, amidst the crowd of humans, Aziraphale thought of this body, the one that he had been poured into as an angel when they were all given bodies, the body that was so needy and troublesome and yet so resistant to change, resistant to shedding a few pounds, resistant to being perfect the way some Archangels were perfect, and then again, he thought: should it, would it really matter what corporeal form he had?
Maybe it was shabby compared to a Prince of Hell who was a former Archangel, created to be a gem of Heaven’s crown. Well, Aziraphale had been in that crown too; gems needed fittings and all sorts of other invisible supports to make them stand out more and shine. And while he may not have been as perfectly made as Asmodeus, Aziraphale certainly had qualities that surpassed Asmodeus.
Aziraphale was suddenly reminded that when he was out with Asmodeus, no one dared come near them. Not that humans were always excited to see him, most of the time they seemed to leave him alone. But here, it seemed that the sudden company, so many smiling faces and gracious hands that wanted to press his, soothed some of the loneliness he didn’t realize he felt until just now. It reminded him that he was loved; that as much as the universe around him was one he loved, that universe loved him back in a thousand thousand ways, through the humans that pressed cool drinks into his hand and helped pick up his dropped handkerchief to the birds that sang sweet songs to him, to the sun that warmed him and over-warmed him and the wind that cooled him and over-cooled him.
But then it occurred to the angel that he had love for all of these beings just as they were, without thinking that there should be anything wrong with them, and maybe that was the way others loved him too, without focusing on all the flaws or imperfections, merely loving him as he was. The way he saw Crowley and didn’t think that those bony joints or skinny slink was somehow wrong but just Crowley, just the way Crowley was, uncomfortable and pointy close up but deeply comforting all the same.
He wouldn’t want Crowley to change. And so maybe it was all right to be needy and troublesome and resistant to shedding a few pounds, and deeply resistant to perfection.
As Aziraphale danced, he remembered the gavotte and the humans learned it from him so quickly that they danced the gavotte to the tune of the Pink Pony Club.
Pink Pony Club, I'm gonna keep on dancing at the
Pink Pony Club, I'm gonna keep on dancing down in
West Hollywood, I'm gonna keep on dancing at the
Pink Pony Club, Pink Pony Club…
When he woke with the sun the next morning, there was a moment of panic as Crowley thought he was still waiting in the bookshop and had fallen asleep. But slowly as memory caught up with him, as he calmed, as he came to himself, he realized he was warm, warmer than he could have been by himself and he looked over to see that Aziraphale was snuggled close, pressed to his side and sound asleep.
Crowley laid there for several minutes staring at Aziraphale’s sleeping face, admiring the way the bright morning light gilt delicate eyelashes. The feeling of relief that came over him that this was real and not a dream was so strong that he nearly reached out to drag Aziraphale into his arms, to embrace the angel tightly. But he didn’t want to wake Aziraphale.
In fact, he was surprised that the angel was still asleep.
With a sigh, Crowley contented himself with lightly touching the tips of Aziraphale’s pale hair, barely enough to ruffle the curling locks.
Very reluctantly, Crowley untangled himself from Aziraphale and got out of bed. With a gesture, he was dressed, and when he looked at his watch he noticed that he had fallen asleep for only a few hours.
It was tempting to just fall back asleep right there by the angel’s side and not move for as long as it took until he felt infinitesimally better, but he had done that enough in the past.
The first thing he did after getting out of bed was to go to the kitchen and make a cup of hot cocoa in Aziraphale’s favorite white winged cup and then an espresso in a much smaller black winged cup. The former, he left on the counter; the latter, he drank in little sips while standing in the kitchen, his eye falling upon Aziraphale’s frilly white apron, the neatly ordered cups and bowls, the copper-plated cookware.
When the cocoa fell cold, he gave it a glare and it warmed back up again.
On the way back, heavy dark clouds that had threatened the skies all morning finally yielded to rain. A lovely warm rain, as if a lukewarm shower and Mr. Fell immediately unfolded his umbrella and briskly walked back through the city-embedded campus, humming pleasantly to himself.
And there, by the edge of the great fountain outside the library was the mysterious woman in her neat black suit standing in the warm rain and if he didn’t know better, she was crying.
“Goodness,” Mr. Fell whispered to himself and he hurried over to her side, covering her with his umbrella.
“It’s fine,” the woman said, automatically, as he stood over her with his cream-colored umbrella that shielded her from the rain. “I’m fine, you don’t need to do that.”
But she took a step, two steps closer to him, even as she said that.
“Erm,” Mr. Fell said, fumbling for his handkerchief and handing it over to her. “Please, you’re all wet from the rain.”
She took the handkerchief from him and carefully dabbed at the corner of her eyes before dabbing at her hair and her face, the neat-tailored shoulders of her suit.
“Are you all right, Miss…?”
“Crowley. And I’m fine. And you are?”
“Senior Archivist, Specialist in Classics. And Metadata,” he said reflexively. “I’m technically faculty too, sometimes.”
“Your name?” Crowley asked, eyebrow arched.
“Oh. Erm, you can call me Mr. Fell. I work in the university library. Mostly in Latin and Greek. Though I dabble in Hebrew and Sanskrit texts sometimes. And Old Church Slavonic. And…”
“Cyrillic?” She smiled. “Coptic? And Demotic?”
“How did you know?” Mr. Fell brightened up.
“Anything derived from a Greek alphabet, I imagine.”
“Yes, actually,” Mr. Fell said, impressed. “Did you study Classics too?”
“No, I just pay attention,” Crowley shrugged and gestured for him to sit, which he did, upon the droplet-splattered edge of the concrete fountain, shrouding them from view with his big umbrella. “Your handkerchief smells nice.”
“Thank you. It’s an—”
“Old custom. Scenting handkerchiefs with perfume.”
“Yes, quite. Aqua di Parma, Colonia. If you like it, you may keep the handkerchief,” Mr. Fell said, in a moment of inspiration.
“No. It wouldn’t be wise,” Crowley said, handing him the handkerchief back. “Thank you for letting me use it. I would have had it cleaned for you, but there are some very good reasons that it would be better and safer in your hands. It smells nice though. Very fresh, very pretty.”
They spent the day in bed, unwilling to leave each other’s side. As night fell and the golden lights of Soho blinked warm into existence, resisting encroaching darkness, they found that they had no words for each other besides a few trivial things. Little conversations about nothing that fell into comfortable silence, and then Aziraphale shifted as if to get out of bed but Crowley tightened his arms around the angel.
“Don’t go,” Crowley whispered.
“I wasn’t planning on leaving. Though I think I would like to change into pajamas, this suit is getting rather wrinkled.”
“Here,” Crowley gestured, and Aziraphale’s suit was suddenly hung up and pressed, and he was suddenly clad in his favorite flannel tartan pajamas. Crowley too was now clad in pajamas, though his were of a sleek scrumptious black silk.
“Oh, thank you.”
“Don’t thank me, I just don’t want you to leave,” Crowley muttered. “That was selfish, intentionally. It wasn’t for you but for me.”
Aziraphale went to move again, and Crowley stopped him.
“What?” Crowley said, slightly annoyed. “Where are you going?”
“I thought I should make us some tea?” Aziraphale said softly, as he snuggled back down in bed with the demon.
“Don’t bother. No milk, no sugar, no tea. While you were gone I threw everything out,” Crowley explained. “Everything that could have gone bad, that is.”
“You mean, in the refrigerator?”
“Yeah. A few things in the kitchen too.”
“Wait, Crowley. Did...did you throw out my mustards?”
“Well, of course. Mustard goes bad, doesn’t it—”
“No,” Aziraphale took a deep breath. “It doesn’t.”
“No? But then why do you keep it in the refrigerator?”
“Crowley. What else did you throw out in the kitchen?”
“Flour, sugar, tea, olive oil— Wait. Do those go bad?”
“...not easily, no,” Aziraphale said with a sigh. “Please don’t—”
“Yeah, yeah...well, don’t ask me what I did to the bookshop then.”
“I won’t and I’m sure I will have an excellent time finding out what happened while I was gone.”
Crowley said nothing, but moved closer, resting his head on Aziraphale’s shoulder.
“Are you afraid I’ll be upset with you?” Aziraphale asked, his arm going around Crowley’s shoulder.
“No,” Crowley lied, the sound of his voice muffled against Aziraphale.
“I can’t promise I won’t be mad. But I’ll forgive you, love. You know that whatever happens, I’ll forgive you, right?”
“Mmm.” Crowley closed his eyes, squeezing Aziraphale tight for a moment before relaxing. “You sure about that?”
“Absolutely certain,” Aziraphale kissed Crowley’s forehead. “Whatever you did, those are just things. I can always replace those things, but I could never replace you.”
“One moment, if you will,” Mr. Fell said, holding up a finger.
“Ahem.”
“Just one…” Mr. Fell took a deep steadying breath. “Pardon me, did you need something?” he said with unerring and icy politeness, not looking up from the screen, his fingers continuing to type.
“I’m looking for The Extremely Big Book of Astronomy.”
“Extremely Big Book, yes. Lots of pictures, that one,” Mr. Fell said, trying to keep the disparaging tone out of his voice. “A nice coffee table book. Try the 500s, Natural Sciences. Say, around 520. It should be there, it’s quite very large and obvious, you can’t miss it.”
“I’ve already looked and it’s not there.”
With a stifled huff of irritation, Mr. Fell opened another window on the computer and checked the catalog. “Unfortunately it appears that it’s checked out, due back two weeks from tomorrow. You will have to wait. Shall I reserve the book for you?”
“No. I just wanted to look at it during my lunch break.”
“If you like, I can recommend you some other books in that field that I find to be of great interest. Light in the Darkness by Heino Falcke for example. Or perhaps The Disordered Cosmos by Chanda—”
“Never mind. And don’t put it on reserve, I can’t check it out anyway.”
“…Prescod-Weinstein?” Mr. Fell looked up from the monitor to catch a glimpse of a lovely face obscured by dark glasses, a long cascade of dark curling hair and a neat-tailored black suit. The crisp click of heels as she left, and all he was left with was a teasing hint of perfume left in her wake, with a scent he could not identify other than alluring.
Athens, 423 B.C. Crowley and Aziraphale have been living in Athens for some time; Aziraphale posing as a poet and Crowley posing as a courtesan, doing the work of Heaven and Hell while inviting each other over for supper parties and drinking.
And then Beelzebub and Asmodeus come to town and Crowley is stuck taking two Princes of Hell around the Athens night life. Meanwhile, Gabriel and Michael come to town and Aziraphale is stuck taking two Archangels of Heaven around the Athens night life. Both Aziraphale and Crowley are working very hard in Hellene places to avoid each other at symposiums, leaving each other coded signs. But with six angels and demons wandering around Athens, inevitably something’s bound to go wrong and they can’t avoid each other forever.
Of course, mistakes were made...

Maybe you want Crowley and Aziraphale in a world that isn't destroyed. Crowley and Aziraphale in a universe where they aren't destroyed. Maybe you prefer the book or have a particular fondness for Season 1 or both.
Maybe you just want to see some love between Crowley and Aziraphale. Intimacy. Yearning and heartache and comfort.
Would you perhaps be interested in Crowley as a late antiquity/dark ages Sleeping Beauty with Aziraphale protecting him in the ruins of a Roman villa?
Or Crowley and Aziraphale in the jazz age crossing the Atlantic on the RMS Queen Mary, a vacation that gets rudely interrupted by the start of WWII?
How about a modern post book/Season 1 kidnapping by a Prince of Hell who wants both Aziraphale and Crowley for himself?
These are all part of a long series. Some of the stories are short, some are novel-length. They span thousands of years and many cultures, and are almost all stand-alone so you can read them in whatever order you like:
