Special Recs of the Day : Happy pride month !
Hello !
As you guessed with the title, today we're going to talk about fics where the characters queer identity play a more important role in the story. (At least a bit, because otherwise, I could put almost any good omens fic here, really.)
To begin this post let's explore some fics about realising something about yourself.
First, I would recommend It's wrong until it's right by Burdened_Titan. I talk about it a bit more here but to summarise Crowley discover that they might not feel like a man all the time, and try to navigate this new knowledge about themselves.
To continue in the gender discovery, I find Our Souls Are Meant To Shine by BlackUnicorn absolutely beautiful in it's simplicity and the depiction of a casual life. Aziraphale discover late in life that he might be a man actually. It was really interesting to follow a character that had a already pretty settled life through this realisation about themselves, and I can only recommend it. (I talk more about it here if you want.)
Then, I would like to talk about Demon and Angel Professors by Ghostinthehouse, that I already talked about here. I put this one here for the myriad of characters gravitating around Aziraphale and Crowley with various identities that try to just be happy in this world.
Then I would like to put here a different kind of relationship than the commonly depicted romantics one with A Lunch on the Horizon by Inherently_human. It's a really nice and sweet story where Aziraphale and Crowley (both aroace here) meet and develop a deep relationship. (And I talk about it a bit more here.)
Would like to also put here Changing of the Seasons by AppleSeeds as a quite great ace fic. It take place during the covid, with Aziraphale trying to do something different during this time, and joining a virtual event lead by Crowley. I talk about it more in details here, but it's really sweet.
For a fic more within the canon of good omens, I would like to mention again Around the World in 80 Cakes by cookie_full_of_arsenic, as much for it's interesting structure as much as what it tell. Each chapter offer a different scene around a cake, and what a more queerplatonic relationship might feel like for the canon version of Aziraphale and Crowley. (And I already talked about it here !)
I would also like to put here Guardian Angel: The Hot-line by ItsScottiesStark for the important reminder of the reality of queer people, and especially queer youth. The world can be a harsh place, but there's still hope. This fic is otherwise really sweet and I can talk about it here.
There's still a lot of fics that could go there. Quite a lot really, but I'll stop here for today. All in all, I might have missed a lot of them, even in the ones I read, so don't hesitate to share your favorites that you think are must read.
I really didn't see the beginning of the year pass, and here we are, already in June. I hope the world treat you kindly as the summer come., and I'll leave you here for now.
Again, happy pride month ! And I'll see you next time ✨
id prefer sfw recommendations for anything (au and cannon divergent and such)
Alright here are some teen rated fics I’ve bookmarked on ao3! 🩵
Unconditionally by Inherently_human : (Canon Divergence) “Crowley comes out to Aziraphale as asexual. Aziraphale reacts exactly how you think he will.”
it's a new craze by attheborder : (Canon Divergence) “Crowley and Aziraphale are very possibly the people least qualified, on the entire planet, to start up an advice podcast. But what else is there to do when the world isn’t ending anytime soon, you’re technically on indefinite sabbatical from your lifelong careers, and you need a plausible excuse to spend more time with your best friend who you’re definitely not, absolutely not, maybe just a little, actually maybe overwhelmingly in love with?”
on the necessity of a temptation by darcylindbergh : (Canon Divergence, Fluff 🩵) “The world hadn’t ended, which was all well and good. If only this had. This, of course, being lunch.”
天明 (Tenmei) by angelsnuffbox (MrsCaulfield) for thundercrackfic : (Human AU, Fluff, ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVOURITES EVER 🩵 🩵 🩵)
Running On E by late for armageddon (themarsgoetia) : (Canon Divergence, The Bentley’s perspective!!)
In Between Days by AFrenchFanWriter for HolRose : (Canon Divergence) “After the Nonpocalypse, Aziraphale becomes a lost, retired angel, while nothing really changes for Crowley - the demon just keeps waiting for his angel to join him on their side. One mistake and a phone call later, the angel might just do that... But not too fast, of course. This story explores moments before and after the Lockdown Episode, with a healthy dose of fluff and a tiny sprinkle of drama (not covid-related), because this is the ineffable couple we are talking about.”

Hello! Wonderful work you do here! It tis much appreciated! If it is not a trouble, could I get some fic recommendations please! I would like disabled Crowley, preferably with chronic pain, human AU, and with other characters involved! If you could oblige it would be greatly appreciated, but no worries if not, thank you!
Hey. We have #crowley has chronic pain and #physical disability tags, so get stuck in. Here are more to add...
Surviving by Inherently_human (T)
Crowley begins to struggle with health issues that seem to get progressively worse. Aziraphale tries to support him the best he can.
Sweet Tooth by Kaiisan (T)
A new bakery opens up and finds itself an unusual new regular. ---- Aka the bakery AU no one asked for and teacher!Crowley because c'mon, he loves those little shits really
I Was Made For Lovin' You by midnightdragons (T)
Anthony Crowley is a big-shot stuntman, working on a movie alongside a new member of the industry, a cameraman named Aziraphale hopeful to create his own movie one day. The two's fling begins to evolve into something more, until there's an accident on set that leaves Crowley injured, and their relationship in shambles. Six years later, Crowley's called back for the first time since then -- to a movie that Aziraphale himself is directing. (An AU inspired by and with some dialogue taken from Ryan Gosling's The Fall Guy; stuntman!Crowley, director!Aziraphale.)
A Business Arrangement by CopperBeech (E)
Aziraphale Fell works for the family business, Archangel Security, which is still struggling to find its niche. Doing what his strait-laced, class-conscious family expects has helped him ignore the problem of his sexuality right into middle age, but he’s decided it’s time. For Anthony Crowley, sexuality isn’t a problem. It’s a slush fund that he could always tap into when he couldn’t pick up enough shifts to pay the bills, or wanted something nice (a profitable strategy for someone who’s always been able to do weird things with his tongue). But for the past couple of years he hasn’t had options. At least business doesn’t affect his personal life, because so far, he’s never had much of one. It’s about to get complicated.
love like yours (will surely come my way) by CCs_World (T)
Dr Zira Fell is a new professor of theology at St Beryl's University. His first day there he meets the mysterious and enchanting Dr AJ Crowley, an art history professor and a painter. They almost immediately become friends, and spend most of their time getting lunch together, talking, drinking wine, making art, and falling slowly in love with one another. Featuring cameos of everyone's favorite (and least favorite) characters, gratuitous descriptions of paintings, long text messaging conversations, and one cranky cat.

Surviving is so personal to me, I hope it finds the people who struggle with their health and need the comfort, it can be a lonely journey :( <3
It's Valentine’s Day tomorrow, not that Crowley has the time to think about that right now. He has much more important things on his mind, like trying not to get discorporated from hypothermia. Aziraphale finds him right before he loses consciousness. When Crowley wakes in the bookshop, he only cares about one thing: Is the ring still in his blazer?

Hi mods! Could you please rec me any fics where Crowley is flustered or touched by Aziraphale rescuing or standing up for him? Thank you :)
Hey! We have a whole #flustered crowley so check that out. Here are some with a rescue element to add...
Thank you for the rescue by AppleSeeds (G)
Crowley finds an injured bat and takes it to a rescue centre, where a very lovely man is looking after the animals.
Gestures Great and Small by Inherently_human (T)

Claim Your Desires by dbacklot99 (E)
Crowley's plans for a perfect romantic anniversary dinner go out the window when they accidentally bring home some haunted sex toys. How ever will our heroes cope? Aziraphale’s eyes lit up. “We simply need to have the hottest, most intense sex of our lives,” he pulled Crowley to him and started unbuttoning his shirt and vest, “before a horde of possessed sex toys break down the door!"
I Slithered Here from Eden (Just to Hide Outside Your Door) by casuallyneurotic (M)
A glimpse at the ever-evolving relationship between our two favorite idiots, through the lense of Crowley's various transformations into his scalier corporation. This fic spans the time just before Warlock and a little after the apoco-wasn't.
The Werewolf's Mate: Mated Under Moonlight by IneffableToreshi (E)
While on a 'writer's retreat' in the middle of nowhere, Crowley gets himself in a dangerous situation, only to be rescued by a gorgeous hiker with something of the wilderness about him. A fast-burn, whirlwind romance ensues, only for Crowley to learn that Aziraphale has a secret second identity...and that second self wants to 'mate' with Crowley just as intensely as the first.

Featured Fic #13: A Lunch on the Horizon
Today's featured fic is "A Lunch on the Horizon" by @inherently-human
----------------------- Read on ao3 ---------------------
Friday 6 September
Aziraphale was nervous. Not just nervous, actually, but anxious. Really, incredibly anxious. But, well, that was rather the whole point of it all. He was thirty minutes early to his 11 o’clock appointment and was pacing up and down the street. His head was pounding from built-up tension and his hands were fidgeting uncontrollably. He had his first therapy session today, and thoughts were racing through his head at supersonic speed. What if, unlike at the doctor’s, there was no waiting room? What if, if there was, it was weird that he sat there for an entire half an hour before his appointment? Would other people be waiting? Would they think him strange for being that early? But they couldn’t even possibly know that he was early if they were being called away for their own appointments, could they? He hoped the therapist was nice. She had sounded nice when they had talked on the phone. What if she was faking it, though? It was just her job, after all. Maybe Aziraphale was overestimating his need for help. Maybe he was taking up one of their precious spots while someone else needed it more than him. What if he was being selfish?
-------------------------- Read more on ao3 -------------------------
We encourage readers to engage with the fic as well. Comments are always appreciated, and we hope to foster a greater sense of interaction in the community.
Here are some ideas if you don't know where to begin:
What was your favorite moment? Was there a character, scene, or line that made you laugh? Smile? Cry? Did you connect with the author's style? Love the dialogue? The action?
Short comments are okay too! It's totally fine to just say that you liked the fic, to leave a keysmash of emotion, or even an emoji. Comments are always appreciated!
Aziraphale’s Advent Calendar (G, 1,6K)
I come to you this holiday season bearing a gift that keeps on giving: An ineffable husbands mistletoe fic. Read it here!
Here's an excerpt! 🎄❤
“You don’t happen to know what A Christmas Carol is doing next to Hercule Poirot’s Christmas, do you?”
Crowley came to stand behind him. He was unnecessarily close, his corporeal heat palpable all down Aziraphale’s back. Despite his best efforts, the angel’s old heart skipped excitedly. The demon peered over his shoulder at the old, weathered book in his hands. “Mmnope. Don’t touch your books.”
“Our books. And I beg to differ. This one has your scent all over it, demon.”
“Does it now?”
“Yes, it does! It smells like soil, and fragrant gardens, and sunlight on a cold winter’s day, and—”
Crowley’s breath was hot on his neck. “Open the book, angel.”
Rec of the day : A Lunch on the Horizon
Hello !
Today we're talking about A Lunch on the Horizon by Inherently_human.
In this fic, we follow Aziraphale and Crowley after they meet one day by hazard, and their developing relationship as time pass.
I really liked how this fic paint their interactions and the way they get closer to each other step by step. They meet one day after Aziraphale first therapy session, and just grow closer from here.
This fic is mostly fluff, but there is still a bit of angst as they are both dealing with some mental health issues, and going to therapy for it.
I really liked how their relationship was depicted as something really important and meaningful for both of them. The story felt grounded in everyday life, following simple events that just made the evolution of their relationship feel really organic.
Overall, this fic feel like a warm hug to me. Like things could be fine even if sometimes there is bad days and dire situations.
In addition, it was really nice to read a story about two aroace characters just living their life.
If you want to read it, tt's available on ao3, feel free to check it out !
