Good Omens Fic Rec: A Bathhouse Pretense
Aziraphale seeks Crowley out in 38 BC Rome, finding him in a bathhouse which just so happens to be hosting an orgy. Aziraphale is there to discuss upcoming celestial business, Crowley is there for a good time, but when a certain demon happens to drop by, it gives them an (admittedly flimsy) excuse to get close, and then closer still.

*Minor Spoilers* This is a deliciously filthy after dark read! Set in 38 BC Rome, Aziraphale has tracked Crowley down to a bathhouse to tell him about the upcoming birth of Jesus. If he's being a little affected by the orgy around him, that's not his fault. And if the pair need to get intimate with each other, it's really not their fault, they are just trying to blend in after all! I love their characters so much for how they each justify doing what they really want. Aziraphale will always have an excuse or loophole for his behavior, and Crowley knows exactly how to tempt without being caught out. Not unique to this fic, but I want to note, that just because a story is a PWP that doesn't make it any less engaging than other kinds of fics. Sometimes the plot is porn, and that's wonderful! This still has such great character exploration within the filth. Very much not safe for public, but you will have a great time at home!
