One of my biggest 2025 personal Good Omens projects. Started in February, achieved in July. Almost gave up on this one in the middle of the process, but so proud to see it achieved, finally!!

My own poster for Good Omens season 3, included all my theories, easter eggs and interpretations/expectations for the future!

So, if you want to know everything…..

(Explanations and close-up shots under the cut, speed-drawing and more!)

Back to back. Wings open wide, chin out and daring eyes.

Not talking, not EVEN looking at each other. As if they can't work together - or even tolerate each other anymore.

His Highness Aziraphale, in a somptuous angelic battle suit, purple eyes as the true Supreme Archangel and Commander of the Heavenly Host.

The Grand Duke of Hell Crowley, wearing once again the Season 1 silver chain, claiming he is back in Satan's Army.

But… What if?

Back to back, as if they can't work together anymore… Or, isn't it for protecting the other's blind spot?

Why Aziraphale's shadow (soul?) in the background does still have his blue eyes? And why Crowley's golden irises glow exactly like the angel's features?

Not talking, not even looking at each other. And still, same as back then on the Wall of Eden, or in front of the Noah's Ark, or sat on their bench in St James Park, they are looking in the same direction. And what do we usually say about love and partnership… but "it's looking together in the same direction"?

And this snake, embracing the archangelic halo, whispering to Aziraphale's soul and ear… And Crowley's snake tattoo, secretly glowing in gold?

No talking, no back channels.

And still, they'll resist. They'll fight. At some point, I'm sure they'll communicate, in their own special way. They'll manage to work with each other, and protect what they like best. As always.

Love is their Resistance.

Because ao3’s tagging system explicitly allows romantic pairings in Gen fics as long as the relationship is not the focus of the fic.

(But real talk: this comes up a lot on Tumblr and on r/ao3 and while most people know the Gen fic rules, there’s always a portion of people who don’t and get extremely frustrated when they can’t find a fic devoid of romantic relationships. Which is valid! But definitely not a reason to blame authors or their fics.

What concerns me is the growing amount of people who acknowledge ao3’s correct tagging rules and then say “well I don’t like/believe in it” and proceed to ignore the rules and continue to be upset because they don’t want it to be a rule and they think they can apply their own “beliefs” to the system and others should too.

That’s not how rules work.

If you want to change ao3, join the OTW. Run for one of their elected seats. Petition for a rule change, etc. Help wrangle the “no relationships” tags and encourage use of one others might want too.

But stop treating every relationship like it’s icky and that others are morally inferior because they’re okay with the Gen rules. You don’t make the rules, and that’s a good thing!

Also, an ao3 without relationships in gen fics? There would be so many batfamily fics disappearing because of a 200 word section buried in one chapter of 34 where Bruce and Clark interact and are presumably together!)

[yourwakingnightmares]

Nope, sorry gonna disagree with you.

Go take a perusal through the Batman-All Media Types fandom. Now, here's what I want you to do. Very specifically.

First, go over, and filter out all 'Original Female Character'. See how many results that gets rid of. Scroll through just the first page. See how many fics with OFC, Female Main Character, Original Character Female, OC Female, or Original Female Character/(Some Male Member Of The Batfam).

Now go ahead and filter all those out. Scroll back through the list again.

See how many results you get for 'Original Female Reader Insert'. 'Female OC Insert'. Daughter/Girlfriend/Lover of (Male Member Of The Batfam)'. 'Reader-Insert'.

Let's get really desperate here. Let's just exclude vaginal sex, and everything related to it. See how far that narrows it down. Since I'm trying very specifically to avoid this one specific thing.

Scroll through that first page again. And you're gonna get at least three or four fics that have come up with yet another 'clever' way of trying to bypass the tagging system to make sure that people who very much do not want to read about an original female character are forced to see their original female character.

So now we just get rid of all pairings. We'll just 'Gen' tag. Get rid of 'Explicit' rating. Surely that will eliminate all of this nonsense, right?

Yeah, except now we've gotten rid of fics that we probably would've liked to have read, but these people are so damn insistent that we see their fic, their fic that we aren't going to read, aren't going to click on, that those are the lengths you have to go to to get rid of something.

And Christ forbid you want a m/m ship; that you're looking for a very specific thing that isn't gen, because now... you can't even take the easy route, and just miss out on fics. Now you've got m/m tagged, and you're still getting Original Female Character/Dick Grayson popping up at least once a page.

At some point, saying, well, everybody tags differently, and well, maybe it's a mistake, and well, sub-tags, and well this and well that.

No. I shouldn't have to take two hours to filter out every possible variation that these people are trying to tag-duck around.

And I'm a person who will read pretty much any ship that isn't an OC/Main Character. I'm not picky about who's doing what, as long as it's a good story. So I'm very specifically trying to just eliminate one particular thing, and I still can't do it without running into at least a dozen people who are trying to slip around the tags in the first five pages of results.

[frownyalfred]

Jesus.

I mean this in the best way, this is a you problem and not an ao3 problem.

It’s literally just fanfiction. If filtering fics is causing you this much distress, you should probably take a break from it.

[yourwakingnightmares]

Ah yes. Okay. Let's apply that logic to other things.

I want to make tasty muffins for a bake sale. Now, I use flour and honey and maybe even nuts in these tasty muffins I make. Now, I know that there are a lot of people who don't like these things. There are people who are even allergic to these things. But you know... I just really, really want to make these delicious muffins and have everybody eat them so they can tell me how much they like them. And if I tell them honestly what's in these muffins... they won't eat them.

So. I'm going to mark them as gluten free. As nut free. As honey free. Are they these things? No, of course not; the main ingredient is flour and nuts and honey. But you know, again, if I tell people that they won't eat them. So I'm going to just mark them as different things. That way people will eat them and tell me how good they are.

That's perfectly acceptable... right?

Would you feel the same way if a published book, that went through an editor and publishing house, tagged something mlm, then had a love triangle between two men and a female? Would that be acceptable to you? Would you write it off as just 'an innocent mistake'? Would you say that people upset by it just 'shouldn't read'?

Or let's try yet another way of making you see what you're really arguing. Let's just say... you do not like Bat-cest. You won't read any m/m pairing with the bat bros. Maybe you're a Tim/Steph shipper. Maybe you're a Dick/Babs shipper. Maybe you're a Joyfire shipper. A Damijon shipper. But you very much do not agree with Bat-cest. You exclude Bat-cest, every variation of shipping between the brothers. Tim/Dick, Dick/Jay, Tim/Jay, Dick/Dami, Dami/Tim, Dami/Jay, polycule versions of these... cool, you should be good right?

Well. Here I present to you a fic that's tagged Tim Drake & Dick Grayson & Jason Todd & Damian Wayne. Looks good, right? Go ahead. Take a read. Oh... wait, did you miss the Robin!Pile tag? Oops. Go ahead and filter that out. My bad.

Oh. That other one pops up with BatBroLove? No worries; exclude that out too. My bad.

Oh. The other one pops up with Robin Polycule? No, no worries, just add that to the exclude list. I promise, you don't have to read Bat-cest. Just keep excluding those tags. You'll get there; it's fine. Promise.

There are a lot of people -and yes, I'm one of them -who try very hard to tag correctly. To make sure that every relationship is accurately tagged. That every possible trigger, every possible situation that might disturb someone, is tagged. I go over my tag list two or three times usually, and the one time I didn't and missed something, I added a note to the story apologizing as soon as someone pointed out I'd missed something.

Because if we're not using tags... what is the point of tagging. If you refuse to at least attempt to tag properly... well hell, let's just get rid of it all together! After all, it's no big deal, right? I mean, people aren't using it how they should, let's just... do away with it. Because clearly it doesn't matter, if it's okay to just... go around the system, right?

Batman AMT, no filtering:

199,555 works.

1 of the twenty most recently updated works has an OFC.

1 of the twenty most recently updated works has a Reader Insert.

Vaginal Sex is not a top 10 freeform.

OFC is not a top ten character and no /OFC ships are top ten ships.

Filtering out OFC:

192,204 works.

No OFCs appear on the most recently updated list.

1 fic of the twenty most recently updated has a Reader Insert character.

Vaginal Sex is not a top 10 freeform.

Filtering out just Vaginal Sex:

Only one of the most recently updated fics had tags that indicated sex could be in it (rated M, Rape/Non-Con and Underage Sex archive warnings), and I opened it up and couldn't find any sex with Ctrl+F. I always forget dick and Dick are the same word until I try that lmao. I am not reading 33 chapters of poorly-written webnovel to find out what on earth euphemisms they decided to use.)

Okay, but maybe OFC and het is all over the place with M/M in Batman. Let's try AMT, Include M/M, Exclude all other categories.

59,861 works

Top 10 characters are all male, no OCs

Top 10 rels are all male, no OCs

Top 10 freeforms only contains 2 sex related tags, Anal Sex and Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics.

Except for one, all Male/Female character pairings in the twenty most recently updated fics indicate they are past relationships. For the other, I read it and I'm pretty sure the poster doesn't know what the slash means. Dick and the mentioned character's only interaction is that he pukes on her while having a medical emergency.

I think you're probably just kind of bad at filtering and searching.

Arabian Omens

Above: unused Good Omens 2 concept art by Louis Ralph (ca. 2021, originally published as a part of the artist’s ArtStation portfolio in March 2024).

You’ve probably seen quite a few posts about the second anniversary of the Good Omens 2 release on your dashboard today, so instead of throwing yet another rendition of Every in your face, I thought about celebrating not only what we got, but also what we can still look forward to.

Remember how back in August 2023, when the Good Omens fandom was still in the early stages of grief after the unexpected twist of the Final Fifteen, another heartbreaking news came out of an official source regarding the amount of minisodes lost due to Covid?

“Ones that we had planned as possible for Season 2 (that either didn't get written or didn't get filmed) included a Wild West one, a 15th century Papal one, an Arabian Nights one, and a 1960s American one with Crowley and Aziraphale female presenting. And we have the whole of human history as a canvas. But for now the ones you've got are all.”

Of course you do — the very idea spurred a second fandom-wide tsunami of Through the Ages artworks and stories of their own, including the amazing Ineffable Histories project initiated by James and contributed to by artists, including yours truly and many of her personal favourites.

As it often happens, one thing led to another and yet another minor controversy ignited by a well-meaning Tumblr user resulted in a particularly interesting set of information shared about one of these minisodes.

“The author of the Arabian Nights story was a British-Sudanese author who had made a study of the period and the material previously and she was determined to tell a story set in that time and place that wasn't from a ‘stereotypical western vantage point’. (It was a casualty of the Covid costs taking a big chunk of our budget, which meant that the 55 minute episodes we had planned dropped to 42 minutes, alas, and we lost the equivalent of one episode over the 6).”

Fast-forward to circa half a year later; it’s now March 2024 and the Good Omens fandom has discovered a batch of new concepts arts shared by Louis Ralph via his ArtStation. Among them, a surprisingly detailed view of a historical marketplace, clearly more detailed than some others and therefore indicating more advanced level of research and preparation for this minisode.

Over a year later, I’ve happened to find the writer in question, and both the fact that she’s listing the Good Omens 2 script commission on the updated version of her CV and that it was included in the development process long enough to get a concept art done by Louis Ralph (above), suggest that it might had been fully written, just not filmed due to the budget cuts.

Above: an excerpt from Suhayla El-Bushra’s CV & Biography file, provided by the Haworth Agency (created in April 2025, last accessed on the day of this publication).

Suhayla El-Bushra, currently based in Brighton, has been using her experience of having been brought up in Kilburn in northwest London with Sudanese heritage in one way or another throughout her whole career, but it became a particularly well-known asset of hers after the success of her female-focused 2017 retelling of The Arabian Nights at Royal Lyceum in Edinburgh. The musical rendition of the “Thousand and One Nights” folk stories with elements of the ancient shadow puppetry, modern digital projections, group dances, and gender-bending genies was family-friendly, but included a refreshingly feminist angle to the originally terribly misogynistic story.

Arabian Nights, also known as One Thousand and One Nights, is a famous compilation of folk tales from the Islamic Golden Age (ca. 622 - 1350) framed together by one woman’s, Scheherazade’s, narrative. According to the story, King Shahryār’s wife was unfaithful to him, so as a revenge on all womenkind he resolved to marry a new virgin every day and to have her beheaded the next morning. The brave Scheherazade agrees to marry the King in hope that her storytelling skills will keep the monarch on edge (or, more accurately, a cliffhanger) night after night, saving her and all the other women of his kingdom from an untimely demise via execution.

In the 2017’s musical, Scheherazade’s aim shifts from saving her own life as well as those of the other brides-to-be to freeing her imprisoned storyteller mother and the market stall owners (the production famously opened up with the destruction of a street market, and the arrest of all its traders, by the cruel Sultan of Baghdad). The same narrative applies to a collaboration El-Bushra took part in 2022 for Shakespeare’s Globe, well after finishing her work on the Good Omens minisode.

Hakawatis: Women of the Arabian Nights was a winter 2022/23 play at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse, written by Hannah Khalil with the goal of reclaiming these stories for women, particularly those of Arab descent. Instead of focusing on just one of them, the play introduces a group a female storytellers and multiple stories spun by them, the final three of which are completely original, specially commissioned from Hanan al-Shaykh and Suhayla El-Bushra — the two women whose plays were direct inspirations for Khalil — as well as Sara Shaarawi.

With this backstory in mind, it seems rather interesting that Ralph’s visualisation depicts Aziraphale as the one seemingly running a bookshop stall, right? Even more so when we consider that the Arabian Nights minisode taking place during the Islamic Golden Age, just like the original stories, means that this scene takes place right around the time or relatively soon after Aziraphale and Crowley have reached their Arrangement (1020).

Aziraphale never shows up truly out of Heaven’s colours, but changes them slightly on purpose. Here we can see him not yet in his gradually warming with time, teal-we-meet-again palette, but openly smitten with Crowley, wearing his va-va-voom yellow like a declaration of possession (or a wish to become possessed). Until now, the angel has been continuously depicted on a clear trajectory from the virginal white through ecru, silver, and warming up into shades of beige towards yellow, but it seems like it wasn’t exactly the case here.

What if there was some kind of breach between them in the meantime, predating the Holy Water argument, possibly taking place in the particularly disliked by Crowley 14th century? The time of the Black Death, another big scale extinction event wiping one third of European population millennia after Flood and explicit promise from God not to repeat such tragedy. Imagine the anguish of the poor angel and Crowley’s helplessness seeing him like this!

On the other side of the canvas, there’s another one rather intriguing character whose red robes and parasol stand out from the bustling marketplace. Is this our Sheherezade? And if so, is she an entirely new character or another one of Crowley’s colourful personas, like Bildad the Shuhite?

It would make a lot of sense, at least when it comes to composition and color scheme of the whole piece. The placement of both characters on the opposite sides of the canvas, respectively bathed in shade and in full sunlight, seems very intentional. The top left corner rule and negative space aside, the artist also made Aziraphale look in this specific direction, as if inviting us to follow his gaze and notice what’s really important far in the background. All of the characters face the spectator and bare their faces, besides just the one exception with their back turned to us.

Unfortunately, even with all of this brand new context we don’t know much about the overall plot of this minisode, so there’s a chance of them being an entirely new character, but their colour-coding (and how it matches the depiction of Aziraphale so well in particular) and level of sun protection seem rather Crowley-adjacent.

I think that we can at the very least agree that the image of the demonic odalisque trying to enchant a king with her stories in order to save one imprisoned angel seems not only logical within the provided context, but also rather fetching. Not to mention how it could possibly explain the reason why Crowley doesn’t like the 14th century, a mystery so many of us have tried to explain with their own headcanons.

Who knows, maybe this part of the 6000-year-old love story — and so many others, written or visualised by multiple creators over decades and three seasons of a TV show — resurfaces in the form of another script book?
